Description
Orange Squeeze: Your fast, friendly remote control for your Logitech Squeezebox family of devices.
Orange Squeeze automatically discovers and connects to your local Logitech Media Server (formerly Squeezebox Server) over WiFi.
November 2022 -- 2.6 released (based on Open Squeeze) with support for Android 13 and new Material Design 3 components. As always a free upgrade! April 2020 -- 2.5 released with dark light theme and all new icons. July 2017 -- 2.1.5 -- Added support for Android versions up to 8.0. This enables mysqueezebox.com support on Android 6.0+, which was missing until now.
- Full tablet support with fluid grid-style browsing that accentuates your beautiful artwork. Configure how large you want your grids to be, or if you you can choose to revert back to traditional list-style browsing. - New UI based on the standard Android action bar and navigation drawer patterns. Your home menu and player list are just a swipe away at any time! - New artist artwork generation technique using a more traditional grid instead of the overlapping cards model in the past. - The current playlist view is updated to include some nice gestures, such as swipe-to-remove and also long-press to reorder. Overall the current playlist view is faster and more robust than before. - Orange Squeeze will now broadcast track and player metadata, allowing consumption of track and player metadata by third-party apps. - New track download backend that works around some issues with the previous one based on the Android download manager.
Fast browsing available immediately with no waiting for scans or database synchronization. Full search capabilities coupled with an intuitive and seamless interface make listening to music on your Squeezeboxen fun and convenient. Advanced caching heuristics make for a smooth, seamless experience.
Fully integrated and tested with Pandora, Spotify, and other online services available on your Squeezebox.
Other features: - Can automatically mute players when a phone call is received, and optionally unmute them after you hang up. - Use your phone's volume keys to control your player volume. - Helpful user interface that introduces you to advanced features progressively. - Drag and drop playlist and menu management for easy customization - Works with password-protected servers. - Synchronization, player sleep, and alarm support - Clean, seamless integration with SqueezePlayer. Note that this requires the separate purchase of the SqueezePlayer app.
A brief discussion of some of the permissions Orange Squeeze requires:
The permission "READ PHONE STATUS AND IDENTITY" is used strictly to detect when calls are made or received so that automatic player muting will work.
The permission "MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR USB STORAGE MODIFY OR DELETE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR SD CARD" allows the app to download tracks to your external storage and also place the application's artwork cache on the external storage.
The permission "FULL NETWORK ACCESS" allows the app to connect to either mysqueezebox.com or your local Logitech Media Server installation.

Love this for controlling my LMS music playback throughout my home. Simply just works great.

Finally, a squeeze controller with advanced cover art browser on Android. No need for Peng anymore. That's what I've been waiting for. IMO the best squeeze controller on Android.

Orange Squeeze & LMS have allowed me to finally have a whole home audio system with multiple source, playback and control options. I can play to physical Squeezebox Touch, Squeeze play on HTPCs (each connected to independent audio systems) and my android devices via Squeeze Player. I'm in heaven.

Nice app, pleasant to use on Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact with Android 9. Except for strange behavior with 'Play Next' (track gets played next-but-one, and can't be reordered), 'Add to Playlist' (if current playlist contains a single track, playback stops after current track instead of playing added track), and 'Remove from playlist' (track still gets played). Using app to control an Innuos Zenith streamer - Innuos say it is their preferred Android remote app.

Causes my Logitech Media Server to crash. I have a large library - 500gb +. The app may work fine for smaller libraries, but it crashes the server whenever It tries to load artists, albums etc. so for me, it is unusable.
★★☆☆☆Gilroy Bell· Dec 5, 2022
Always been a great app but as of today it no longer connects to my music server.
★★☆☆☆Joachim Møller· Sep 10, 2018
No Wear OS support means I'm sticking with Squeeze Ctrl from now on. It sucks having to find or pull out the phone just to skip tracks or change volume.
★☆☆☆☆A Google user· Jun 15, 2018
The functionality is OK, but the application hangs every time during playback; it loses connection to the server and stops reacting. The only workaround is to kill the app and restart it. There is no test period and there is no support by the author, support requests are ignored. Avoid by all means.
