Someone made a Walkman music player for the Galaxy Z Fold 8, and it works with YouTube Music
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 app turns it into a Sony Walkman using your music, YouTube Music, and even Spotify very soon. more…
A developer named <person1> has created an app called "Foldman" that turns the Galaxy Z Fold 8 into a Sony Walkman. The app works with local music files, YouTube Music, and Apple Music, allowing users to play their tunes on the foldable device. With its cassette player aesthetic, Foldman's interface expands to show a wider stereo visual when the phone is opened up, displaying volume sliders and a running tape counter.
The developer has also included the nice touch of transferring the tape from one reel to the other instead of a static looping animation. This app fits perfectly on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 due to its wide and short front display, reminiscent of Sony's original cassette player. The developer plans to add Spotify support within a few days, and the app is currently free and open source, with no ads or tracking.
It is available for download at users' own risk, as the developer advises against downloading APKs from outside verified app stores.
