Do I need an account or subscription?
No. vgmu is ad-free and free for personal use under its license. You do not need a vgmu account or subscription. The iOS signing tool requires your own Apple ID.
Is vgmu on Google Play or the App Store?
No. Android uses a signed APK from GitHub Releases. iPhone uses an IPA and a self-sideloading setup. Follow the platform guide before downloading.
Does everything work offline?
Saved audio and imported local music play offline. Searching, browsing the source catalog, and retrieving new audio require a network connection.
Is this open source?
No. vgmu is closed source and nothing here is licensed for reuse. The public repository carries the release downloads and the documentation. GitHub’s automatic Source code archives are repository archives, not the application or an installable build.
Which devices have been tested?
The published installation guide records Android 16 on Google Pixel 9 and iOS 26.3 on iPhone 16 and 17. Those checks say nothing about other devices or operating-system versions.
Will my collection transfer automatically?
There is no account-based cloud sync. Export a backup outside the app before updating or removing it, and follow the usage guide to restore supported data.
Is there a community server?
Yes. Join the vgmu Discord from the Community page. The app’s optional Discord Rich Presence is a separate feature and does not require joining a server.
Is vgmu affiliated with game publishers?
No. vgmu is an independent player and is not endorsed by game publishers, rightsholders, or source catalogs. Availability in a catalog does not grant permission to download or reuse music.
