king of the music players let's GOOOOOOOOOO

legitimately one of the only good music players for local files. not trying to sell any service, has 0 ads, perfect for people not trying to pay more money to listen to their own music.

Exactly What I Wanted, and No Less

I didn't expect to find a music player so perfect on the App Store, and without in-app purchases at that. I just downloaded it a few minutes ago and loaded an album with FTP. Perfect. I wanted a more functional music player app, since the stock one doesn't support flac, that I know of. I'll never use the built-in app again.

For the love of god add a shuffle button.

I have a bunch of songs divided into albums which I sadly cannot shuffle. Please add a shuffle button.

Great but barebones

As someone who collects a lot of music, I wanted to find an app where I could bring my music with me everywhere. I came across several but many of them had a ton of frustrations such as not playing files correctly, intrusive ads, or frustrating file management. This app was one I came across and decided to give a try. So far, this is the best sounding music player I have tried, and plays all my files properly, however it is very barebones. Things such as playlists, shuffle and repeat do not exist. While I normally don’t utilize these features as I just listen to albums, they’re something that would be nice to have and I know it’ll be a dealbreaker for some. The one thing that annoys me though is the lack of a metadata editor. This is something that is very helpful and the lack of it is jarring and a little frustrating. This being said, this is still the best flac player on the app store and i can put up with the absence of those features as it is the best app to play flac files. If an update adds those features in, I’ll change my rating.

Would love to see an interface compatible with the iPad

This app is pretty fantastic for those who want to rip music from CDs and enjoy their own music library without a streaming service. However, it does crucially lack a tablet-optimized interface, so you’re forced into using it in both portrait and at iPhone size (or scaled up). It also lacks support for cloud storage providers such as Google Drive, PCloud, Mega, etc.

Wonderful app for those wanting simplicity + super responsive developer

I am slowly transitioning away from streaming services and moving towards mostly purchasing CDs and digital music. I hated many of the extra features and recommendations that streaming services provide and wanted a minimalistic app so much that I was going to try to write my own—however, now I don’t need to because I found this app! The user interface is gorgeous and I like that it can play many types of files and that it is completely separate from Apple Music. When I initially started using it, I noticed that it would not play ALAC files, so I reached out to the developer who responded to me and fixed the bug within 2 hours!!! I definitely recommend this app to anyone who owns music and/or is feeling tired of streaming services and their “features”. Thank you Tamás for making this available for free!

PERFECT APP!

Does exactly what I need and nothing more. It’s simplicity is its beauty. Brings me back to the good days of managing my own collection of music. Nothing but lossless files in my library. Love it. Thank you app developer!

Just needs repeat and shuffle

Perfect and uncomplicated.

I have been using Neutron Player up to this point and am happy with it’s performance however you need a PHD to look at the settings.

Decoupled is everything I need if you would only add repeat and shuffle. If you do that please add a donation version that doesn’t offer anything other than a chance for me to pay you for your efforts through the Apple Store.

Really good simple player but Genre not tagged correctly

For some reason it can’t read the Genre correctly from all of my music library. A bunch are tagged with parentheses with a number, (20) for example. Even standard Genres like Jazz. Doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason.

UPDATE: It is unable to play Apple Lossless even though it states in the app description that it can.

Amazing just missing a few things

It would be nice to have a shuffle and repeat button and be able to make playlists
