This project is unfortunately in a bit of a limbo. The app works, and is available on Google Play, but I don't have the time to maintain it on my own.
If anyone wants to take part in developing this app further, I'm looking for contributors. Please email me, or just fork and code away.
Pull requests are very welcome!
Simple Last.fm Scrobbler (SLS) is a simple app that scrobbles music listened to on an Android phone. Scrobbling means submitting listening information to Last.fm (and optionally/additionally Libre.fm) when you play a track, and you can then get music recommendations and view you listening history and statistics at Last.fm.
Before the release of a new version of SLS, it will be available here to test for one week.
More info about scrobbling can be found on Last.fm's FAQ.
If you need inspiration on stuff to do, you might want to have a look at the list of issues.

You can find the latest version of Simple Last.fm Scrobbler in the Google Play Store, and here in the downloads section.

(a) Uses the Scrobble Droid API - identifies under "Enabled apps" as "Scrobble Droid Apps".
(b) It presents itself to SLS as the Android Music Player. This means that it won't show up under "Enabled apps" under its real name, but under Android Music Player.
Note. SLS should work on any device that can install it, and that can run one of the music apps above.

All of the code is open source, released under GPLv3. My wish is to release it under Apache License 2.0, but it still contains thirdy-party code licensed under GPL.
- Almost all of the code is written by me, so: Copyright 2009-2012 Adam Renberg.
- A small MD5 utilities class seems to be written by many people, but it is released under GPLv2, and I got it from ostermiller.org.
- The icon was made by Tha PHLASH.
- The Last.fm logo is copyright of Last.fm, taken from their media kit.
- The Libre.fm logo is probably copyright of Libre.fm, used in good faith. (Because of their name and stated mission, I assume it is okay).
I use copyright here only in the sense of proper attribution. Do whatever you want with the code (as long as the licenses are followed). I switched to the Apache License 2.0 for a less viral license.
