Cached Playback
Cached playback is built for unstable mobile networks. It pre-caches local library files from your playlist onto your iOS device, giving the built-in player a steady stream to work with.
• Experimental. Turn on "Local Media Service" under Experimental Features first. A new "Cached Playback" section then appears in the built-in player settings.
• One-tap mode switch. A toggle in the top-right corner of the Now Playing dialog flips between Remote and Cached mode.
• Cache status in the queue. Every track in the current playlist shows its state: green for cached, yellow for caching.
• Dedicated status page. A new page shows cached playback details. It opens by itself when the server goes offline during playback.
• Works in CarPlay. Cached playback is available in the car as well, so you can keep listening with the built-in player.
• MP3 by default. Your Lyrion Music Server needs MP3 transcoding enabled.
• Local library only. Cached playback does not cover radio or streaming services, so check that your content is supported before you rely on it.
Other
• Favorites sorting. Sort your favorites by original order, reverse order, or alphabetically. Radio keeps its own separate sort setting.
• Connect by hostname. A new switch in Server settings. It is off by default, which means the IP address is preferred. Adjust it to suit your network.
• Faster Boxset view. All songs now load in one pass, cutting the waiting and scrolling stutter caused by paged loading.
• AND / OR filtering. The filter box at the top of lists now supports both match modes. Configure it under Advanced settings.
• Go to track in release. A new option in the three-dot menu of search results jumps straight to that track's position in the album.
• Force the volume slider. For players that don't support volume control, you can now make the volume bar always visible in player settings.
• Tap lyrics to dismiss. Tap anywhere in the lyrics detail page to close it, with no need to find the close button.
• Pause on disconnect. Playback now pauses when a Bluetooth headset or other audio device disconnects, so audio doesn't suddenly blast from the speaker.
IMPROVEMENTS
• "Discover Music" performance. Fixed a deadlock that hurt page loading and interaction.
• Now Playing info loads more reliably. Album, artist, and work details no longer leave you staring at a blank page.
• Lock screen artwork caching. Recommended covers now use an in-memory cache. We removed the synchronous disk read and repeated decoding on every render.
• Consistent player and server pages. The player management page and the server switching page now share one color scheme and grouped background, in both light and dark mode.
• Consistent purchase pages. Grouped backgrounds and primary buttons now follow a single pattern.
• Smoother full-screen entry. The bottom button row now animates in together with the content instead of appearing on its own.
• Better iPad portrait transition. The playlist no longer fades in early. It rises with the main view first, then fades in.
BUG FIXES
• Fixed Live Activity artwork problems. Covers no longer mismatch after a track change, oversized covers are no longer dropped, and duplicate icons no longer linger.
• Fixed off-center artwork in the Vinyl theme, so covers stay visually centered.
• Fixed artwork that was too wide during iPad portrait full-screen playback.
• Favorites no longer fail as a whole batch. A failed artist avatar or playlist cover now degrades gracefully instead of taking the rest down with it.
• Fixed misaligned icon and text in the experimental features info card.
• Fixed DSTM control commands being sent to the wrong player.
• Fixed various other bugs and copy errors, improving overall stability and text accuracy.… more - 📈xTune - Lyrion Remote & Player charting in a new countryUnited States

Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
