Hi
I just got my Galaxy Nexus yesterday. I was going from a phone that had an sd card slot that I could put my music on. I figured I could live with the less hard disc space because I can stream my music from Google music.
That seems to work fine, but the music app is a little light on features. It's not horrible, but coming from Power Amp, it's a little basic.
Is there any other apps that can stream from google music, and have more features, like EQ and such.
Thanks
Wich app...do u need man

Google music still has a private API, so no other app can stream from it.

Ok, thanks for the replies
If you use iTunes too, try double twist. Features are alright and it syncs with your iTunes musics including the playlist that was great coming from the guy who had iPod touch. You can also sync it via wifi but that's extra 5 bucks...

An unofficial Google Music API has been out for some time.

What exactly are you missing/wanting?

Google play music has a EQ of sorts when playing a song tap the settings dots then sound effects. From there you get a 5 band EQ bass boost and #D expansion thing.
you can use different music managers with google music.... i.e. DSP manager, vodoo etc.

The Google music app has an equalizer! Just click on the 3dots in the upper right corner when you are in the play screen

No apps stream from Google music. The api isn't avaolable. So your only option is the official app

I found Google Music to be very lacking. I uploaded all my music to Amazon and haven't looked back since. Best cloud player and music store for sure. Plus, if you buy just one album per year you get unlimited music storage free (no yearly fee)

Yep! Same here. I have all of my songs on iTunes and all my music on iTunes is automatically updated to Google Music. Best of both worlds.
I use Windows Media Player at home to listen to my local library. Pandora when I want to listen to something new. And I use Google Music when I'm on the go.

Honestly I think they both suck but if I had to choose between those two it would be Apollo. Google music caches random things I never asked it to and doesn't cache what I want it to. I use doubletwist.
BOTH
At the same time!!!!!!!!

That's not what was asked... apollo or google play or gtfo... I don't like either, but apollo sucks way less than google play music.....
Google play music, just because of the cloud (only on wifi, not 3g) and the default settings are perfect for car audio. I've played with the Apollo just couldn't find anything that makes it stand out from the abundance of music players on the market.

Apollo is garbage, I was just giving another suggestion because they are obviously not the only music apps. Gtfo? Ok
I use Apollo with the Black theme. I can't say I love it, but it plays music and has the "Hold volume UP to skip" feature... which is really all I need (I use Shuffle All while jogging and it's nice being able to skip a song I dont want to hear without needing to even look at my phone). Last time I checked the Volume UP skip didn't work with Play Music.
I do wish Apollo would get an update with more features, neater UI, and do better with album art.

If it's only used for cloud then it's ok. I live out west so when I leave urban areas service its spotty so I have to have music on the phone as well. Google music doesn't cache what I tell it to. It just caches random things so because of that I say it sucks.
Power amp could be good. It has a lot of features but the interface sucks.
you save music for offline mode before you leave the house. Google Music because of the free cloud service.

Moved from Google Play to Player pro to Winamp and now I've settled on Poweramp. I've seen some of my friends with a player called "noozy" that is very reminiscent of the Zune library software and I would love to try it out but I can't seem to find it online at all.

Google play , since its compatible with syncing play count s with iTunes by using isyncr.

I used Noozy now and its great but I have a problem. It shows my notifications and ringtones. How can I hide them?

No but I use Google Music to store my music. Then use Cloud music importer to import what I want onto my device, and use whatever music player to scan and play my selected stuff. I prefer Poweramp.
I actually use CloudAround. Since the Nexus 4's internal storage isn't all that big, I use several 50 GB Box accounts (that also come free with this phone) to upload all my music to. This allows me to have as much music as I'd like with my Nexus 4.
I used PowerAmp (with the Holo theme!) previously however. Its a fantastic music player if you don't want to use the cloud.

Hi guys! I'm trying to turn my nexus 7 into a sweet music player/gps for my car. I have the gps figured out, but I'm still working on the music. I have a 32 gb flash drive and an otg cable. It is not rooted and I don't want to root it. I have tried the Nexus Media Importer, but the music player isn't that great. So my question is, does anybody know an app or a way that will play the music on my flash drive effectively? Or a way for google music or another player to recognize my drive so it could play the songs on it? Thanks!!
Id suggest uploading it all to Google music then making the songs you like the most offline.

Yeah, I have NMI, just the music player isn't really that intuitive, and hard to work. I'm trying to find an alternative to it, but if not, I'll end up using NMI. Basically I want to use my otg and USB with a music player already out there.

Apollo is a great music app, and so are the rest of the popular ones such as Poweramp (in my opinion).
My point exactly is: IT DOES NOT MATTER.
What matters is how you feel comfortable about the interface and the MUSIC FX/Equalizers it can handle.
Try Noozxoide (google it) for your eq/preamp and you'll have amazing results on tone and volume.
I prefer Google Music but I used to use Apollo some time ago and it was fine
