About N-Zik
N-Zik is your open-source, multilingual YouTube Music client for Android.
A fork of Kreate focused on performance, UI polish, bug fixes, and long-term support.
Note: N-Zik started as a side project. For more mature alternatives, check Metrolist, VIVI Music, or RiPlay.
AI Usage: I use generative AI for code (via BMAD Method), reviewed and tested before shipping.
Whether casual listener or audiophile, N-Zik gives you full control over your music without compromising privacy.
