System Study
Existing System
The existing music player applications available in the market cater to basic user needs, such as audio
playback, playlist creation, and shuffle functionality. These systems typically feature a user-friendly
interface for basic music control, playlist management, and music playback. However, many lack
advanced features such as personalized recommendations or modern design consistency.
Most existing systems utilize relational databases or static storage solutions for managing song libraries,
and while they are functional, they do not adequately leverage modern technologies such as gesture-based
controls or cross-platform compatibility. Additionally, integration with advanced features like floating
players or multimedia playback options (audio-video-lyrics) remains limited. This leaves room for
improvement in user engagement and functionality.
Drawbacks
· Lack of Personal Interaction: Minimal personalization in recommendations and playlists.
· Limited Playback Options: Audio-only functionality with limited video or lyric integration.
· Potential for Static Interfaces: Outdated or inconsistent UI designs reduce engagement.
· Scalability Challenges: Difficulty in handling a growing user base or adding new features.
· Limited Interactivity: Lack of advanced gesture-based controls or smooth animations.
Proposed System
The proposed music player system, built using React Native for the front end and Node.js for the back
end with MongoDB as the database, aims to provide an enhanced and scalable solution for music
enthusiasts. This system will include a web-accessible and mobile-friendly user interface, providing users
with seamless access to their music library across devices.
Key Features
· Real-Time Playback and Tracking: Users can play, pause, and control their music with real-time
feedback.
· Floating Player Design: A floating music player allows seamless navigation without interrupting
playback.
· Personalized Recommendations: Location-based and habit-driven music suggestions.
· Multiple Playback Modes: Audio-only, audio-video, and audio-video-lyrics options for a versatile
user experience.
· Gesture-Based Controls: Integration of Reanimated and Gesture Handler libraries for smooth
slider functionality.
· Advanced Reporting: Insights such as top songs, total listening time, and user trends.
