5. Google Play Music

Google Play Music is pre-installed on most Android smartphones these days. Not just a music player, but we have to include it. While it doesn't have the deep customization or power features of something like Poweramp, it offers what many others do not; that huge cloud library for your own music. It can read the files on your device and act as a regular player, or you can upload up to 50,000 of your songs to Google Play Music and stream them if you prefer. Of course, it also comes with an optional subscription that gives you access to all the content on Google Play Music. Like all Google apps, Play Music too features the Material Design UI but oddly, it doesn’t seem to be implemented that well. Yes, there’s the tinted status bar and lots of colors but there’s no action button.
