Have you tried Plexamp? It supports all the features in your list. You need a Plex Pass for most of the features though.
I’m not mentioning it to suggest your project is bad; I’m mentioning it since it might give you some inspiration for features to implement in your one :)

It was missing a bunch of features last time I tried it - no crossfades, no automatic playlists (for things like liked songs, decades, etc), no artist radio (play an artist plus similar artists), no way to play sonically similar songs (based on offline analysis), no Android Auto. Maybe it’s improved now - I’ll have to give it another shot.

Plexamp seems to be closed source and also paid? In that case that’s definitely not an option for me, but at least nice to know that something like this actually exists.
I’ll try to look at the screenshots to glean something useful to copy, but I’m already doing that with other projects anyway.
Thanks for the mention though! I did hear about Plex but not Plexamp yet

Yeah, unfortunately it’s closed-source. It’s a good app though! If you build something similar that’s fully open source, with an Android app and Android Auto support, then I’d definitely be interested in trying it.
