SicMu Player vs Vanilla Music
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
SicMu Player
Lightweight audio player which features a single over-all playlist with every song on the device. SicMu player can show songs in a tree view following device's folder hierarchy. Songs can be sorted and grouped by folders or artists. Many other features are available, see website.
Vanilla Music
Music player with a simple interface similar to the stock music player. Supports browsing by folder, queueing, shake-to-skip and more. Supports the same audio formats as the stock music player since the system media APIs are used. This is a fork of https://f-droid.org/packages/org.kreed.vanilla which is no longer being developed by its author. We keep that in the repo as it supports Android versions below 4.0.3.
