Perennial Questions

A big thank you for all the users who are making "Fusion" one of the talked players.
Quite a few of you have rated us and given your suggestions. Thats what keeps us going.
Just thought of answering few of the questions being asked at various forums about Fusion.

1.  Is Fusion Free ?
         Yes Fusion is completely free. Including the song downloads.
Currently Fusion does not host its own content nor it has partnership with any labels. So the songs  you get to download are the once which are available in the Internet for free.

2.  No ads !!!!!!
          Fusion is  designed the core philosophy that nothing  should be between U & Music. Advertisements tend to consume lot of phone battery and hence cuts down your music playback time.The researchers findings show that 65% to 75% of the energy used to run free apps is spent for advertising-related functions.  So Fusion team decided not to display any advertisements.

3.  Its Cool! How do you make money?
             We too don't know. :-) Stay tuned and we are confident to provide something cool worth paying for.

  2. it's a very good music player. It has the best of all the music players so far. The only thing I hated was that it's a bit laggy and freezes at times. I would love to see it working real smooth. And in the online mode.. I can't access the radio and listen to the songs that are suggested by the player. could you do something about it?
    thank you :)

    1. @Anurag: Thanks for trying Fusion and sharing your feedback. We will definitely try to improve the performance of the player.

      With respect to the online mode, could you please suggest if you are Wifi or Mobile Data?
      If you are on Mobile Data you need to enable this by going to Fusion settings-> Online services-> Over Wifi or Mobile Data. Please update to the latest version 1.1.4 of the player and try this and let us know if you still face this issue.

      Kindly drop in an e-mail to tightfusion@gmail.com along with the device model you are using which will help us in looking into the issue.

      Thanks,
      Team Fusion

  3. Awesome music player, needs a manual album art search tho...it keeps downloading wrong album arts, and you're not able to remove the wrong album art :/

    Making the album art download optional and manual would make the player more awesome....

    1. @Sami Wedi: Thanks for trying Fusion and your suggestion. We try our best to get the most relevant album art, but as you mention it is not accurate always. This also depends on the album name, song name (metadata) information in the file.

      We will definitely provide more options for album art update in a future release.

      Currently, for the ones you see a wrong album art, could you please verify if the album name is proper and complete, if not you could long press on the album and select "Edit album info" and update the album information. Fusion will automatically update the album art again.

      Thanks,
      Team Fusion

    2. A really great music player !!!
      you guys have put so much thought into it and I love the way its simple and not cheesy hi-fi like a few players. I am an almost audiophile and I have tried almost all the players in the market ( yes yes, including player pro, poweramp, jetplus audio) but I kept going back to winamp but having got the fusion player now, looks like I got a good music supplement. I did not find any acoustic changes in the player, but something about the player is intriguing and really good. I wanted to convey my personal regards in a long drafted mail to the dev team, then thought why not let the world know it too.

      Great job guys, really.
      Though there is one thing that can be added. please do add the scrobbling support. I have read in forums that you can direct the meta data to the native scrobbler app that is installed rather than adding it in your app coding. DO DO add scrobbling support.

      P.S : People wouldn't mind paying a lil bit for the player. Keep in mind that millions of people download, so even a meager amount would lead to a lump (just a suggestion)

      Thanks a real lot for your trying Fusion and sharing your thoughts. We are infact very humbled by your response and users like you is what keeps us motivated to improve Fusion going forward.

      With respect to scrobbling, we have many users requesting last.fm scrobbling support and we will have this feature included as a part of Fusion in the next update.


      Thanks for your support,

    1. @Sunny Grover: The Fusion music player is pre-bundled with the phone. It has been singed with a key specific to the entire device that is different from Fusion music player available in Google play.

  5. Hey guys,
    I've tried to rate and review the app on Google Market, but for whatever reason I could not. Anyway, this is the most amazing app I've ever used. All the features, the design - everything is incredible. This is the only player I've managed to connect to my last.fm account (including their official app). The only thimgs I'm missing are a scrobble cache, so you could scrobble offline and update it when you come back online, and a homescreen widget. Other than that, you've probably made what is the best music app on the market. Keep up the good work!

    Either way, Just wanted to say how much I love this app. Keep up the good work!

  10. Love the app, but when I use the equalizer the bass boost and 3d are not able to be adjusted. The other levels can be adjusted. Is that by design?

  11. Great app guys, congratulations for your technical accomplishment and also for your ethics.

  15. I just found this app today and LOVE it. The only issue I have is that the app doesn't seem to rescan media (particularly album art) without dumping the app settings. Is there a way to force it to rescan or (even better) a way to edit album art natively?

  16. Its great player but its not updating my library at first I thought it was the files but on rocket player it works fine but rocket player succs which is why I chose yalls. Is there a way to manually update the library if so let me know...

  18. how can we remove the album art ? like what i read above wrong album art is being showed, if possible how can we remove it instead ?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Fusion won`t load automatically cover arts anymore as it did automatically when first installed. Not from the Internet nor my library. So I have to spend hours of manual upload which are lost (erased?) for no reason in a day or two. All cover arts selected for each album are now blank (black). Where did the cover arts go? It happens over and over again. Unistall/install doesn`t fix the issue. WHHYYY???

  20. how do you xfer your library from an android tablet to a android or windows phone ??

    ReplyDelete
  21. Love the clean ad free interface with full screen cover art effect/selection. Shuffle party/all only plays the same songs and it keeps on stopping all the suddden for no reason ( unsupported file?.. can`t be , checked all files one by one). Also it keeps on erasing the slected arts periodically for no reason and would not reload them automatically (I have my collection on the sd and do not remove it, ever). Manual reload only (one by opne.. 2000 songs..!!). Besides that, I like it. Would love to hear from these guys and get a fix one day.

  22. How do I get into or set up a last.fm account

    ReplyDelete
  23. It would really be nice if I could get rid of the album art all together. The Fusion player keeps pushing album art on me that are from the most obscure and never heard of people, as well as having nothing at all to do with the actual song being played.

    There does not seem to be a way to get rid of this problem other than uninstalling.
