It's possibly my favorite implementation of Microsoft's Fluent Design standard, with properly varying font weights and sizes, and judicious use of translucent panes. My first impression of the app is that it's gorgeous. The developer intends to expand the number of services you can stream from in future (more on that later), but for now, I'll stick to sharing my thoughts about the app in its present state. It eventually expanded to Windows 10 on the desktop, and currently supports streaming from SoundCloud, a similar service called Fanburst, and YouTube. This led me to New Zealand-based developer Dominic Maas' UWP project, SoundByte, that was initially made to be a SoundCloud client for Windows Phone. Mind you, I didn't really need an app, but out of curiosity and my preference for natively coded apps, I decided to look for one anyway. A vast majority of my streaming is done from Google Play Music, but often, there's content on platforms like YouTube and SoundCloud that one generally can't find elsewhere.Īfter spending some time on SoundCloud's perfectly adequate website, I decided to look for an app that could better leverage Windows' media controls and give me more flexibility in a natively coded package.
