Just wanted to alert users to another option for importing song files that is available with iOS 11. 

There is a new files app in iOS that will show cloud sources for files.  If you put song files in mp3 or m4a format on those cloud drives, you can tap and share them with Walkout Song DJ.

Issue Reporting / Re: Uploading music to Walkout Song DJ
« on: February 22, 2018, 05:44:55 am »
Find the gears app icon for the settings applet,  scroll down the left side to the music app icon, tap that.  On the right side should be a ‘show apple music’ toggle you can disable.  You should also disable the ‘icloud music toggle’ in that same page.  That is the switch that tells apple you are ok with them replacing your owned songs with their rights protected versions.

With those both off, you can go into the music app, find your purchased songs and tap the cloud icon to get them local to your device.

Issue Reporting / Re: Uploading music to Walkout Song DJ

The issue with the App not being allowed to play songs from Apple Music subscription still exists... because frankly it is all in the hands of Apple.  I would love to resolve it as it is the majority of the complaints and support requests for the app.   As soon as Apple makes it an option, I will have an update to support it within days.

All songs you purchase from iTunes should work.  If you are having issues with that, I would recommend disabling the 'Show Apple Music' in the Music section of the iOS Settings applet.  Then for songs that don't work, delete the local copy and redownload from the cloud.

I do understand your impression that 'Apple Music' songs should work with the app... I'm right there with you.  But I do mention directly in the app description that they do not to try to avoid hassle for people. 


I have found an option that works to avoid having to buy songs you already have from Apple Music. On a MAC or PC, Download a free trial of this application:
http://www.macsome.com/itunes-converter-mac/

That application will convert Apple Music subscription files to non-restricted mp3 files that you can then email to yourself and import to the app.

The only restriction on the trial version of that converter application is that it cuts the conversion at 3 minutes, but that is usually plenty of time to get the part of the song you need for the walkout.

If you still have no use for the app, feel free to request a refund from Apple, but please let them know that the reason is because they won't allow third party DJ style applications to play songs from your Apple Music subscription.

Enhancement Requests / Re: Add music from Amazon prime music
« on: February 16, 2018, 09:49:16 am »
I looked at adding support for Amazon Prime Music last year and they did not have any third party interfaces available for developers to use to integrate into mobile apps.

I will take a look again and see if that has changed and keep it on the radar if it still has not.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Open beta of the first Android version of Walkout Song DJ is now on the Google Play Store. Might still be a little rough around the edges, but should do the job for you. Use the following the opt-in link to join the beta and you can send feedback to me here.

Release Notes / Closed Alpha test of Android version to start 2/12/18
« on: February 10, 2018, 08:46:55 pm »
After nearly a year of work, the first alpha version of Walkout Song DJ for Android is ready for those who would like to help test it or are a desperate to use the app on the Android platform.  The only functionality not complete is the pregame playlist tab and import/export of the app config.  I was able to very closely recreate all the functionality of the most current version of the iOS version and even improved on the team selection functions.

If you are interested in participating in the alpha test, send me a message here or on the app facebook page and I will add you to the distribution list.

Enhancement Requests / Re: Folders for Situations
« on: December 26, 2017, 08:31:46 am »
For the Android version, I do plan to support import of the setup database and that should work well.  The tricky part is the songs themselves.  I could create functionality in both platforms to export/import the music via email as well, but that would be a pretty large amount of data.  I think a better approach would be some sort of cloud transfer, but I haven't dug into how complicated that would be.

Enhancement Requests / Re: Folders for Situations
« on: December 13, 2017, 08:50:56 am »
hmmm, folders would be an interesting concept.  Pretty big change in the underlying data structure but does provide some flexibility for the future.  Perhaps I could also apply that to the team concept on the walkout page as well.  I've been looking for a way to clean up the multi page selector there as it is pretty confusing for users of the non-engineer variety.


Not sure how soon I can get to working on this but I will add it to the todo list.  Right now, I have about 65% of the Android version completed and I am pushing to have that ready for the spring season.

Thanks again for sharing your ideas...  it is much appreciated!

Enhancement Requests / Re: Option for no number
« on: December 02, 2017, 08:13:53 am »
Wow, I never noticed that before... I can definately add a check for the number and just announce the name if the number is not entered.  Look for that in the next update.

Thanks for reporting that!

General Discussion / Re: 32 GB iPod touch 3rd Gen model 5.1.1
« on: November 01, 2017, 09:21:41 am »
Unfortunately, the lowest version of iOS the app has ever supported was 6.0 so that is why your device with max version of iOS 5.1.1 cannot purchase the app.  That device was produced in 2009, around 4 years before I created the first version of Walkout Song DJ.

I do understand that is the highest iOS version supported by that device, but most of the operating system features required by the app were not available in that iOS version.  I would recommend maybe finding a used generation 5 iPod as those will support iOS 9 and all the best features of Walkout Song DJ.
