[!WARNING] Forks are not supported in any way.
We do not provide support, maintenance, troubleshooting, or assistance for any forked version of this project. If you choose to use a fork, you do so at your own risk.

ArchiveTune isn’t just another generic YouTube Music wrapper. It’s a fully custom-built player made from the ground up, because we think your music should stay private, look clean, and work exactly the way you expect. If you care about sound quality and want something that actually feels good to use, this is it.


[!IMPORTANT]
Geographic Availability: If YouTube Music is not supported in your region, a VPN or proxy set to a supported region is required for initial data fetching.

What is this?ArchiveTune is a free, open-source Android app that works as a custom YouTube Music client with ad-free playback, plus support for playing your own local audio files.
Is this an official YouTube Music app or a third-party client?It's an independent third-party client built from scratch, not affiliated with Google or YouTube, and it doesn't bypass YouTube's technical protections.
Do I need a Google account to use it?No account is required for local file playback, but signing in with a YouTube Music account unlocks your playlists, liked songs, and subscriptions.
Will it work if YouTube Music isn't available in my country?If YouTube Music isn't supported in your region, you'll need a VPN or proxy set to a supported region for initial data fetching, and forked versions of the app get no support at all.

Where does the project get its lyrics and base framework from?It builds on Metrolist for its base framework and uses the SimpMusic and BetterLyrics APIs for lyrics, word-by-word sync, and artwork.
