Virtual Shuffle - Android app that forces Spotify to play truly random tracks

I noticed that Spotify kept playing the same 10 songs in my playlist even though shuffle was enabled, so I built Virtual Shuffle to take control of Spotify and play truly random tracks from my Spotify playlists/albums/artists, etc.

Have you noticed that Spotify doesn't play truly random tracks too even though shuffle is enabled?

@hikaru_nagashima It can't be launched on iOS because of how the os works.

There is no such thing as truly random when you're working with computers. I'll be sure to replicate your randomness with my hacker toolz

@kingromstar True. But it's random enough. I think you'll find working with Spotify's API and SDKs to be a little frustrating lol.

Virtual Shuffle - Truly Random on ProductHunt is a must-have Android app for Spotify users. It ensures a genuinely random music experience, adding an element of surprise to your playlist. While it's an excellent solution, a more user-friendly interface and wider device compatibility could enhance its appeal further. A game-changer for those seeking musical variety.

@marty_quinn The interface has a radio button (To choose the type of shuffle) and a checkbox (To start or stop the service). I can't think of any way to make it more user-friendly. It can't be made for iPhones because of the way iOS works.

@debra_elliott No ma'am. It doesn't use blockchain.
