Convx is a free, open-source Android music player that streams from YouTube Music through its own InnerTube client, wrapped in an iOS-inspired Liquid Glass interface. People use it for synced lyrics, offline saving, background playback, and extras like Automix, Discord Rich Presence, and Listen Together that you won't find in the official app.

Before you start: go to the Nightly 2.0.4 release on GitHub (github.com/cosmictaserdev-creator/Convx/releases/tag/2.0.4-nightly) rather than the "latest" Stable tag, since Stable is currently marked outdated and not working. If your phone is 32-bit only (for example a Galaxy A13) and installation says "app not compatible," download the arm32 APK from that same release page instead. Your device also needs Android 8.0 (API 26) or later, and you'll need to allow installation from the app you used to download the APK.

Why isn’t Convx on Google Play?
Convx is published by its developer on GitHub, not on Google Play. It relies on an unofficial third-party interface to YouTube Music, which is one reason it stays off the Play Store.
Is Convx safe?
Convx is open source under the GPL-3.0 license, and the APK is distributed directly from the developer's GitHub Releases page. The maintainer notes the current Stable release is outdated and not working, so the Nightly build is the one to use for now, and nightlies are pre-release builds that may be unstable; also note Convx is an independent project with no affiliation to YouTube or Google. Convx comes straight from its developer rather than through Google Play, so it hasn’t gone through Google’s app review. As with any app, check the permissions it asks for and install it if you’re comfortable with them.
How to install
- Tap the download button above: the APK file downloads straight to your phone.
- When Android asks, allow your browser to install unknown apps.
- Open the file and tap Install.
