Levyra is a native Android music client focused on responsive playback, local control, and privacy.
Features include:
* audio and native video playback modes controlled by the user
* background playback through AndroidX Media3 and MediaSession
* search, charts, albums, artists, playlists, and a persistent queue
* synchronized lyrics with multiple fallback providers
* optional SponsorBlock segment skipping
* offline exports as tagged audio files in the public Music/Levyra folder
* favorites, playlists, history, and listening insights stored on-device
* Android Auto, notification, lock-screen, widget, and Picture-in-Picture integration
* light, dark, OLED, dynamic-color, and multilingual interfaces
Levyra has no ads, analytics, or developer-operated telemetry. Playback and discovery connect to YouTube and YouTube Music; playback may load YouTube's playback-security script in an isolated hidden WebView to obtain the tokens required by the service. Artwork and metadata may come from Apple Music/iTunes, Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz, and Wikidata. The open editorial catalog can include Spotify chart metadata, and published covers may load from Spotify image hosts under scdn.co and spotifycdn.com. Lyrics may use YouTube Music, LRCLIB, Lyrics.ovh, and configured LyricsPlus fallback mirrors. SponsorBlock segment skipping is enabled by default and may contact SponsorBlock during playback; users can disable it in Settings. Return YouTube Dislike may be contacted when player engagement details are displayed. Levyra also reads public files from GitHub. From raw.githubusercontent.com it loads the open editorial catalog, the community Canvas catalog, and the YouTube playback configuration published by the ZemerTeam/zemer-cipher project; the editorial catalog and the playback configuration are requested during ordinary startup and playback, without any user action. From github.com it loads the author avatar shown on the App page. These third-party services receive ordinary network information such as the device IP address.
The F-Droid build is compiled entirely from the public source. It disables Levyra's GitHub self-updater and remote announcement feed; updates are delivered by F-Droid. The F-Droid build uses the source-built OkHttp playback transport and does not bundle Chromium Cronet.
