All of the music players I’ve tried let you import or export .m3u playlists, but none of them automatically scan a folder for playlists nor update the .m3u realtime. I’m trying to sync playlists between my laptop and phone.
Navidrome will do that.
This. Specifically, if you want to do things like sync playlists and listen stats between different devices (e.g. Android, iOS, Windows, macOS), you want a dumb client that connects to a server that handles all that. I do it on Plex but Navidrome looks awesome.
On Android, Vanilla Music has it. Although the app is unfortunately semi-broken on newer Android versions and not being updated anymore, because Google came up with an even more fucked up API for accessing files in the filesystem.
Deleting songs doesn’t work anymore. Not sure, what else is broken…

I just need to play music for free.
Sigh
So annoying…
