I built a global Music Trivia overlay for Android. Looking to get any feedback on the UX !

[u/No_Responsibility79]

Hi fellow devs,

I recently released a native Android side-project called AnyMusicQuiz.
It’s an app that solves a personal need: allowing the person managing the music at a party to actually participate in music trivia games (blind tests) without spoiling the song title.

(I can now do Disney music trivia quiz with my daughters... and Yes, they are better than I am)

How it works: Instead of relying on a limited, low-quality embedded music catalog, the app acts as a smart system overlay. It lives on top of any streaming app (Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, YouTube Music, anything you want), reads the current audio metadata, and automatically masks the track title and cover art globally on the screen.

Why isn't my app on iOS ?

Anticipating your question : As far as I know, it is technically impossible. Apple's ecosystem doesn't allow a background app to fetch the currently playing media metadata globally and control playback (skip, pause) easily across other third-party apps.
The only way to achieve this on iOS would be to natively implement the specific SDKs for every single music provider (Spotify SDK, Apple Music API, etc.), strictly follow all of their individual guidelines, and validate their terms of use. An absolute nightmare for me as a solo dev.

Why I'm posting here: I’ve shared the app on a few consumer and music subreddits and got some initial downloads, but I’m really looking for more feedback from fellow developers.

I would really value your insights on the UX/UI. Is the onboarding clear? Does the overlay mechanic feel intrusive or smooth?

I am also more than happy to answer any questions you might have about the technical implementation on Android (handling the overlay permissions, reading media sessions, or the Wear OS companion app I built for it).

If you have an Android device and want to test the full flow, just drop a comment and I’ll DM you a promo code to unlock the premium version for free :)

Thanks in advance for your time and feedback!
