About Now Playing History

1. Explore where you've listened to the songs in your history, go back in time to see the playlist of your favorite night club, or reminisce about your last concert's set list. The app supports Last. fm scrobbling - you can either scrobble individual songs by long-pressing on them, or automatically scrobble all newly recognized songs.

2. You can export your entire history (or just specific songs) to Google Drive / Gmail to share them with friends or to keep a backup for yourself. *- Fetches additional details (album name, album cover) from Last.

3. When using the optional "scrobbling" and "album art/details"-feature, we send the song title and artist to the Last. fm-API.

4. "Now Playing History" shows a history of all the songs you've listened to, sorted by date. Never miss a song again!

5. You can tap on an entry to listen to the song in your favorite music player (customizable) and mark individual songs as "favorite".

6. The "Now Playing"-feature on the new Pixel 2 phones is awesome - but what happens if you don't catch a song's name before it vanishes from the lockscreen? It's gone forever :-O!

7. The app can optionally fetch additional details (such as the album name and album cover) for each song.

8. You're able to search your history of recognized songs and delete songs from your history by long-pressing on them.

9. An optional "map"-feature allows you to see where you've listened to each song.

10. If you're using the "map"-feature, the recorded locations never leave your phone.

11. All data is stored locally on your device.

Now Playing History Customer Insights

1. Not sure what others are doing, but it works beautifully here with Android 12 on a Pixel 6 Pro.Bummer. I have an extensive Now Playing history on my Pixel and this app is useless for exporting it.

2. Here's hoping that the adb backup hack still works.Love the app, it would be awesome if it had similar functionality to the google now playing app.

3. Will bump up to 5 stars if I figure out a way to only scrobble songs that aren't already being scrobbled, such as Spotify via its back-end Last.FM connector.

4. Sometimes does not record the song for no specific reasonsgot the pixel today, this app shows 4 songs then nothing.

5. Basically you can click the little arrows that expand and contract the song lists by month, by week etc.Great app, worth the small price.

6. It no longer 'listens" for music after the latest Android 10 update.Does not work on Android 11 due to reworked notifications.

7. I recently had to replace a broken Pixel 2 and lost all my history.

8. the history built in to the pixel itself showing loads more since the 4.

9. Sounds trivial but let's be honest, this feature is already a nice to have...Extremely useful app, and great functions.

10. unfortunately just too late for a refundOne of the first apps I installed on my new pixel2 in July 2018.

11. This app is much, much, MUCH more useful than Google's implementation and is essential until they catch up, which seems like never.
