MixZing is based on a sophisticated music recommendation engine that learns from your tastes and from tastes of other music lovers like you. When MixZing makes a recommendation you just rate the recommendation by telling it whether you like the recommendation or not. With every new network member and every rating, MixZing gets better at serving your playlist needs.

Review:

Pro:
- Large album art
- Downloads missing album art
- UI is very smooth

Cons:
- Artist / Albums look the same as default no real difference
- No swipe to next song / gestures just old buttons as default

Overall, its WAY better than the default music player because of the larger and clearer album art, more updates will improve this app overtime, and for now i suggest everyone to have this app to be there music player over the default.

i like this one, cause tunewiki app is like 2mb and it has cache stuff.

the UI for tunewiki isn't to nice for me.

but there both fine though

Niiice.... and BTW Kid Cudi is my hommie, I went to school with that kid. I scrolled down and saw that like "Oh ****" thought I'd comment a bit.

I have the older version I guess, I can't wait to upgrade this thing. I would love for the ability to advance track using the mic thing (double tap).

Well, today's your day. :-) We've just re-published an updated version in the Market, and it includes support for the headset button and improved album art quality, as well as some important quality enhancements (aka bug fixes).

Just one thing: please uninstall the old version first, there were some problems that we couldn't fix up cleanly in the update--last time that should be required!

Look forward to getting feedback, feel free to use our new forum at http://mixzing.freeforums.org/ to get support or suggest feature enhancements. Thanks for the support!

well i just downloaded this and i must say im not very impressed. IMO tunewiki is way better. i have been trying it out for quite a while and it hasnt recommended any song and hasnt found any of the missing album arts of songs which tunewiki does perfectly. im sticking to tunewiki for now

[naTTan]

I can't see it on the Market from my area. Can somebody upload the apk? It's a free prog right?

I'm sorry to hear that, are your songs well tagged? We do rely on artist, album and title tags being reasonably correct to be able to find recommendations and artwork. (In the future we have some proprietary acoustic fingerprinting logic that we'll use to identify poorly tagged songs, but for now that's all we have to go on.)

We've delivered 5000 sets of recommended songs to over 700 users in the last 24 hours, so I know that a lot of people are getting recommendations just fine, but maybe there's a specific issue with your installation. If you could go to Menu->Settings->Status and tell me the first 4 numbers of your Library ID (before the ":") I could check for problems.

Yes, it's free and it should be available, let me know if you're still having problems finding it.

I have posted a reply in XDA, but for certainty, i will do it again here ;)

Can you put it an option to select which folder to look for songs in the future? Certain apps like text to speech and phone recorder sounds are added to the library.

[kvizzel]

How do i use this app to find album artwork?

maybe its just bad tags

[Casey Rain]

I'm going to check this app out right now. Larger album artwork on the player was something I was looking for.

[JohnnyLicious]

im still waitin for an update that kills this app from running in the background constantly, but i dont see it affecting my battery life, it just annoys me at times lol when i open task manager im OCD haha.

[JohnnyLicious]

can someone download / update to the newest mixZing 1.1.3

and send me the .apk file?

i don't have access to the market =(

helppp lol.

[tythoward]

When I setup mixzing, I added my facebook and twitter i.d., so how does that work? Does it post your now playing music to the sites, or what exactly does it do?

[Dj Grimey]

I like last.fm app it does everything you guys listed but more.

[vigan8]

i like this app, its just that its a bit slow on responding
