For the fun of it, I decided to recreate the new Android 16 Volume Interface! Consider this an early preview of the new Android experience. You can get the new design early through Precise Volume!
It's been a while since the last update! This is the biggest update since 2.0's release, and it brings some truly game-changing features.
There is a new Parametric Equalizer, a Volume Lock feature, full Material You color support, a Mini Music Player on the Home screen, and so much more.
Let’s dive in.
It features a clean, intuitive interface and gives you more advanced control over gain, frequency, and Q factor.
I've also included Import/Export to APO, JSON, and YAML formats.
Keep your volume exactly where you want it.
Featuring an easy-to-use UI that makes it extremely easy to lock volume to specific levels/ranges. Seamlessly integrates with your existing Volume Presets.
Your app, your colors. It blends beautifully with your system theme and adds a layer of polish to the entire UI.
Now playing, right from the Home screen. See your current track from Spotify, Tidal, and more at a glance.
If you made it this far, here's another tip for my fellow audiophiles. When you're editing a Device Profile for a Bluetooth device, open the 3 dot menu in the corner and press "Bluetooth Codec Options [ALPHA]".
This will allow you to automatically set your Bluetooth Codec preferences when a device is first connected. Notice how LDAC quality is set to "Optimized for Audio Quality"? Now you will never have to change it through Developer Options ever again. Thank God. This feature is totally free and is available on Android 13+ (for now - I will try to work on getting this ported for older versions later).
With all the main changes out of the way, let's get into the smaller details.
Beta 15 is here!
In this update, there is a new volume interface for the Volume Button Override feature. It's inspired by Oxygen OS. Hoping to have some more interfaces ready sometime soon!
Beta 14 is here!
There was a bit of a slowdown in updates due to some IRL stuff I had to deal with, but I'm back! I have some cool new things I'm working on that weren't quite ready for this update, but should be ready at some point in the future. So stay tuned!
This update includes many little improvements and bug fixes. Also, there's now a proper welcome screen for new users. Also, some settings and behaviors have been simplified.
Beta 13 is here!
This update mainly includes bug fixes.
Edit: An error was found in the way volume precision is calculated, and some users may notice that their presets, etc. have now shifted downwards 4-7% or so. This is an unfortunate side effect of making things even more accurate than before. This should never be needed again, because things should now basically be as accurate as they can get. I sincerely apologize for this, and only wish I had discovered it sooner...
Beta 12 is here!
In this update, there is a new Export/Import feature which allows you to backup/export app settings, presets, etc. to a ".pvexport" file for later use.
Also, I've added a newer "Android 15 Beta" style for Volume Button Override after recent changes in Android 15 Beta 2.2. The older Preview style is not being removed though!
There aren't quite as many bugs fixes in this version as I had wanted, but I hope to work on that next with this export feature out of the way. It was quite time consuming.
For the Export/Import feature, .pvexport files are really just fancy .zip files, which means they can be edited on your computer manually if you're so inclined. Within the .pvexport files, everything is stored in a plaintext .yaml format for very easy editing.
Beta 11 is here!
This is Pierce. He wanted to say hello
Beta 10 is here!
I'm testing out a new State-based Automation feature. This way, Automation features like Bluetooth will be a bit more predictable. Rather than having a "When disconnected" option in Automation, you can set it always do the same thing when the Internal Speaker is used, for example.
Additionally, there is now an option for PRO users to separate Auto EQ from presets entirely. When this is enabled, Auto EQ will be controlled by your devices in Automation instead.
Beta 9 is here!
It's now possible to manually input Equalizer values. Just tap the label!
Also, the Auto EQ section + import screen will now show you which database a profile came from. There are also 1800 more AutoEq profiles added (from crinacle primarily).
Stability is still the #1 priority right now.
Beta 8 is here!
For the fun of it, I decided to recreate the new Android 15 volume interface. The animations and overall user experience are extremely similar, with some extra tweaks and additions. Consider this an early preview of the new Android experience! You can get the new design early through Precise Volume!
In this new design you can also activate Volume and EQ presets! I haven't added it to the Android 14 design yet.
You can view it here, but remember the animations will look so much worse in video form. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9unHZ7OPZbQ
And here's a look at that new option in Graphic EQ.
