Enhance the NativeDownloadFinalizer metadata pipeline and download service notification accuracy. Metadata embedding: - Adopt result > track > request priority chain consistently across all metadata fields via resultString/trackString/requestString helpers - Add cover art embedding for FLAC (via cover_path in editFileMetadata) and M4A (via FFmpeg attached_pic) during native finalization - Use separate track_number/track_total/disc_number/disc_total fields for FLAC instead of combined N/M format strings - Use 'organization' key instead of 'label' for M4A metadata (MP4 std) - Sanitize literal "null" strings in metadata via cleanMetadataString - Add -map_metadata 0 to FFmpeg tag commands to preserve existing tags Notification progress: - Fall back to percentage-based notification when extension reports progress ratio without byte counts (bytesTotal == 0) - Show indeterminate progress spinner during downloading state with no byte data instead of a stale bar

Extensions
Extensions let the community add new music sources and features without waiting for app updates. When a streaming service API changes or a new source becomes available, extensions can be updated independently.
Installing Extensions
- Open the Store tab in the app
- On first launch, enter an Extension Repository URL when prompted
- Browse and install extensions with one tap
- Or download a
.spotiflac-extfile and install manually via Settings > Extensions - Configure extension settings if needed
- Set provider priority under Settings > Extensions > Provider Priority

FAQ
Why does the Store tab ask me to enter a URL?
Starting from version 3.8.0, SpotiFLAC uses a decentralized extension repository system extensions are hosted on GitHub repositories rather than a built-in server, so anyone can create and host their own. Enter a repository URL in the Store tab to browse and install extensions.
Why is my download failing with "Song not found"?
The track may not be available on the streaming services. Try enabling more providers under Settings > Download > Provider Priority, or install additional extensions like Amazon Music from the Store.
Why are some tracks downloading in lower quality?
Quality depends on what's available from the streaming service and its extensions. Built-in providers:
- Tidal up to 24-bit/192kHz
- Qobuz up to 24-bit/192kHz
- Deezer up to 16-bit/44.1kHz
Can I download playlists?
Yes! Just paste the playlist URL in the search bar. The app will fetch all tracks and queue them for download.
Why do I need to grant storage permission?
The app needs permission to save downloaded files to your device. On Android 13+, you may need to grant All files access under Settings > Apps > SpotiFLAC > Permissions.
Is this app safe?
Yes SpotiFLAC is open source and you can verify the code yourself. Each release is also scanned with VirusTotal (see badge above).
Why is downloading not working in my country?
Some countries have restricted access to certain streaming service APIs. If downloads are failing, try using a VPN to connect through a different region.
Can I add SpotiFLAC to AltStore or SideStore?
Yes! Add the official source to receive updates directly within the app. Copy this link:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zarzet/SpotiFLAC-Mobile/refs/heads/main/apps.json
In AltStore/SideStore, go to Browse > Sources, tap +, and paste the link.
