🚀 Next Steps

The apps are ready to build and run:

For iOS:

1. Open GrooveAudio (iOS)/GrooveAudio.xcodeproj in Xcode
2. Select a simulator or device
3. Build and run (⌘+R)

For Android:

1. Open GrooveAudio (Android)/ in Android Studio
2. Select a device or emulator
3. Build and run (Shift+F10 or ▶️ button)

Configuration:
