PlayHum: Background Player

🎵 PlayHum is the ultimate music and video player browser app that lets you stream your favourite content while multitasking in floating picture-in-picture mode, when the screen is off, or while the phone is locked.

Search, bookmark, and share your favourite content, create your own home shortcuts, and listen to podcasts, interviews, lectures, lo-fi, ASMR, and nursery rhymes with the screen locked. Save battery life by listening with the

screen off — no need to keep the display on.

Here are the key features that make PlayHum stand out:

🎧 BACKGROUND STREAMING

• Stream music and watch videos with ease, even when your screen is off or on the lock screen

• Multitask in a floating picture-in-picture mode while listening to your music or video in the background

• Bluetooth headphones and car media controls work right out of the box

• Lock-screen media controls with title, artwork, and prev / play / next

• Save battery life — listen to music without keeping the screen on

📜 WHAT PLAYHUM IS, AND IS NOT

PlayHum is a browser, not a content client. It plays any video or music website for hours of free background audio without the need to download tracks. We do not modify, hide, or filter anything on the sites you visit. We do

not change how any site looks or behaves. If a site shows ads or paid prompts, you see them exactly as you would in any other browser.

🔒 PRIVACY

Your Favourites, History, and Shortcuts are stored locally on your device — they never leave it. We use Firebase to collect anonymous crash reports and usage statistics so we can keep the app stable. We do not collect personal

information, contacts, or location.
