[Feature Request]

Description

Currently, SpotiFLAC works as a powerful downloading platform for high-quality audio.
To enhance the app’s usability and make it more complete, it would be great to have built-in streaming features in addition to downloading.

I’d like to request a feature that allows users to stream songs directly inside the app (without downloading), while maintaining the same high-quality audio experience that SpotiFLAC is known for.

Along with streaming, adding Library and Favorites features would make the app feel more like a full music player rather than only a downloader.

Requested Features

1. High-Quality Streaming

  • Stream songs directly in the app
  • Same quality as downloads (FLAC / high bitrate)
  • Smooth playback (app-like experience)

2. Library System

  • Add streamed or downloaded songs to a personal library
  • Organize songs automatically (artist, album, etc.)
  • Quick access to frequently played tracks

3. Favorites / Liked Songs

  • Mark songs as favorites
  • Separate “Favorites” section
  • One-tap play from favorites

4. In-App PlayerUse Case

  • Play / Pause / Next / Previous
  • Seek bar
  • Background playback
  • Resume from last position

Use Case

  • Users who don’t want to download every song can simply stream it.
  • Users can keep a personal high-quality library inside the app.
  • Favorites help users quickly access their most loved songs.
  • Makes SpotiFLAC usable as a daily music app, not just a downloader.

Why This Feature is Useful

  • Reduces storage usage (no need to download everything)
  • Improves user engagement
  • Makes SpotiFLAC an all-in-one solution (stream + download)
  • Competes with full-fledged music apps while keeping high audio quality
  • Better user experience for casual listeners and audiophiles

Additional Notes

  • Streaming could be optional (toggle on/off)
  • Downloads can still remain the core feature
  • Even basic streaming + library support would be a big upgrade

I never really thought about adding a streaming or music player feature.
