#64 VMPK for Android apk? Where to download?

[arretxe]

I have seen that there was an android version but the link is not working. I see in the support request section a recent post (2023) saying he is using VMPK in android.
Where can I get the apk?
Thanks in advance!

That application is not available anymore. It was removed by Google from their store, and I've removed it from elsewhere. If you find it on some web site,please don't install it, because it may be malware.

Anyway, it wasn't related to this project. VMPK for Android was a pure Java application, and this VMPK project is based on Qt/C++.

Ok what a pity, I was looking for an app to play sf2 with a qwerty keyboard
attached to a phone, where the notes corresponding to each key could be
configured by the user and this seemed to be just that... No plans to
retake this? I would be willing to pay for the development!

It won't work anyway. VMPK for Android did not have a Fluidsynth backend. The only synth was the Android synth, "Sonivox" (the C++ VMPK has this synth as well, and doesn't play SF2). And the keyboard support was quite primitive.

I don't have time right now, and if there will be in the future a new Android version of VMPK, it won't be a Java application.

I've published VMPK for Android v1.5.1 under the GPLv3 license in GitHub. Get it from https://github.com/pedrolcl/vmpk-android/releases or IzzyOnDroid

The only change is the license, and some build system tweaks.
