NEW
• Free 15-day trial — Whiskey River is now free to download, with 15 days of everything included. After that, a single $7.99 purchase unlocks the full app for good, with no subscription ever. Already bought Whiskey River? You keep the full version automatically, with nothing to buy and nothing to restore.
• Star ratings — rate the playing song 1 to 5 stars right from the Now Playing screen. Ratings save straight to your JRiver library. (Requires a library set up with a username and password.)
• Play with Play Doctor — press and hold any song or album and Whiskey River builds an instant playlist of music that goes with it.
• Download videos for offline viewing — save movies and shows to your device and watch them with no connection at all. Play them in Whiskey River, VLC or Infuse, and manage them from a new Video section in your local library.
• Browse artwork from your own library — the Browse categories now show tiles made from albums you actually own, refreshed daily.
IMPROVED
• Casting stays put. Pick a speaker once and it stays selected through track changes, stopping, switching libraries, and reaching the end of a queue — until you turn casting off yourself.
• Skip to any point in a song while casting. Seeking now works on every format, including on Sonos, and without the few seconds of silence it used to cause.
• Music stored on your device can now be cast, not just music from your server.
• Sonos speakers show the room name you gave them.
• Better album art on the Now Playing screen, including artwork stored alongside your music files. Art for the previous and next songs is ready before you swipe to them.
• Tour dates appear right away instead of after listening for 30 seconds.
• Playlist backup now includes your server playlists and your Liked Songs, and puts them back on the right library when you restore.
FIXED
• Turning casting off no longer resumes the wrong song — playback picks up where the speaker left off.
• Browse tiles no longer vanish shortly after appearing.
• "Use Whiskey River's Folder" now scans everything the Files app shows under Whiskey River, instead of only the Music folder inside it.
• Video categories that hold files rather than folders now show artwork.
• Fixed a missing icon on the VLC option.
