4Shared Music is a music player and sharing app created by the developers of 4Share.

If you want to backup, download, share, and stream your music collection, 4shared Music is a great choice! When you register for a free account you get 15GB of free space, along with an app that’ll automatically backup music on your device to the remote server.

One of our favorite features of this app is the fact that you can discover new music from over 30,000,000 files uploaded publicly to 4shared – and you can also share them with your friends, too! Get direct share links on every file you listen to that you can share on social media, by email, or text message.

Please remember that this is a free, ad-supported app, so expect to see ads from time to time. You'll hardly notice them though, as most are non-intrusive tiny banners along the top or bottom of the screen.

Aside from some minor issues, 4shared Music is a great choice to back up, share, and discover new tracks to your music collection!

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • BROADCAST_STICKY: Allows an application to broadcast sticky intents. These are broadcasts whose data is held by the system after being finished, so that clients can quickly retrieve that data without having to wait for the next broadcast.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
  • android.permission.ACCESS_DOWNLOAD_MANAGER
  • android.permission.WRITE_INTERNAL_STORAGE
