FAQ

Q: Can I still use Vidya Music on older Android versions?

A: Yes. While Jetpack Compose targets Android 5.0 (API 21) and above, the app includes compatibility layers that allow it to run on most devices you might already own. You’ll get the same core functionality, though some of the newest animation effects may be simplified on very old hardware.

Q: What role does Google Gemini play in the development of Vidya Music?

A: Gemini is the AI assistant we rely on for code generation, automated testing, and performance optimisation throughout the project. By feeding Gemini design specifications and functional requirements, we accelerate development cycles while keeping the code quality high. Detailed documentation of how Gemini is used lives in the repository’s README.

Q: Is the music in Vidya Music legally sourced?

A: Absolutely. Every track streamed by the app comes from the VIP Aersia (now VIPVGM) playlist, which is publicly available at vipvgm.net. The tracks remain the property of their original rights holders, and we respect all copyright and phonographic rights. Vidya Music simply provides a convenient way to listen to the curated collection.
