Hi,
I love using Substreamer with my self-hosted Navidrome instance.
The app currently requires Google Play Services to run, which means it cannot be opened on devices without GMS installed (common in China and other regions). When trying to launch, it shows the error:
Something went wrongCheck that Google Play is enabled on your device...
I would be extremely grateful if you could consider providing a separate APK build without Google/Firebase dependencies, just like many other Android apps do. A GMS-free version would let users on these devices run the app normally, while keeping all core music playback functionality intact.
Thank you so much for your work on this project!
