Get Xperia Z1 Album and Walkman Apps on Your Android Device without Root

Sony is one of the greatest manufacturers of Android devices. Its smartphones might not be as popular as those from Samsung or HTC, but there is something unique about this brand that every mobile user carves for. Yes, I am talking about the multimedia apps found on Sony’s Xperia range of devices. In my personal view, the Album and the Walkman apps from Sony beat all galley and music player apps found on any device by other Android OEMs.

There is nothing surprising about the fact that most Android users wish to get those apps on their own smartphone. Rich multimedia experience is one of the most important USPs of mobile gadgets and the Album and Walkman apps from Sony stand to our expectations. At DroidViews, we keep sharing little and great goodies whenever we get our hands on something new and interesting. In the past, we shared the launcher, Album, Movies, Walkman and keyboard apps from Xperia devices, but most of them were for rooted phones.

Today, we have two multimedia apps from Sony’s latest flagship the Xperia Z1 for you and the good news is that you can install them without having root access on your Android phone with Jelly Bean (ICS not tested). Below you can find the Apk file for the Album and Walkman apps from Z1 that can be installed like any normal app. Just download the apps, copy them to your device, install them and you’re good to go.

  Hi, it is not possible to come with new downloads everyday but we do share when we find something worth sharing. Also, currently I am the only contributor here and so I am unable to make so many posts everyday. Sorry for that. 🙁

    Does Walkman App have xLoud or Clear Audio something like that ?

      This is for unrooted device and therefore it does not employ those audio enhancements very effectively. If you wish to have the real effects try the root version: http://www.droidviews.com/tag/sony-walkman-app/
