unusable

if you're looking for something easier, better than, music, this isn't it. seems to hide essential common buttons for the sake of a compact view. not intuitive. life is too short. this is, was, ok. delete.

НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ! СЛОМАНО!

НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!!! сломано и плохо работает!!! когда-то был лучший плеер, за что спасибо разрабам. НО последняя обнова превратила плеер в тыкву. Вылеты во время прослушивания музыки – никогда такого не было… и судя по тому, что не ремонтируют – пойду искать новый плеер, который не вылетает во время прослушивания музыки. а что с интерфейсом наделали – совсем отстой!

Can I download an older version?

I’m running an older version of IOS and the new update is full of glitches. This used to be my favourite music playing app. I’m autistic and music is my coping mechanism, this is very distressing.

absolute perfection !!

i tried importing local files to apple music and it’s honestly quite a hassle .. it requires a computer AND for you to make sure your computer & phone are synced . foobar2k is so much more simple , i love how straightforward everything is and importing music is very easy , just from your phone . even though the interface appears dated [ or too minimal ] it actually works a lot better than i expected and it’s not over complicated or anything , everything is there for you and organised well . definitely an app to consider , not to mention there’s no ads [ i’d donate if i could !! ]

Добавьте повтор одного трека

Хорошее приложение, неудобно что нет повтора одного трека

Why can I not search by title?

It's 2026. Can you please add the ability to simply search by title?

Repeat Button

Pretty good app but the repeat app isnt working.

9.8/10

Awesome app! Pleaaaaase implement CarPlay… even as InApp purchase that would be great.

Best Music File Player

this app is great its interface and all. The features are things you would expect to be under s premium membership on other apps but its all free. The playlist building is much better than other apps and it excels in playlist building because on the numerous ways you can add songs to playlist.

Excellent

This player should be a lot more popular than it appears to be. It’s the best, “I just want to play music from my folders” app I’ve found (though it can do much more than that). I switched from another app that shall remain nameless (though the cone is very large…). As of this writing, the app is still in active development, which feels like a labor of love, and I love it. Keep up the great work.

GOAT

A friend showed me foobar2000 on his winXP machine in ~2003; the LAN Party days. Since then I use it. It’s the greatest music player software of all times.

Beste App!

Endlich eine App ohne Registrierung und mit der Möglichkeit, Musik offline zu genießen. Einfach die mp3 Dateien in den foobar2000 ablegen und es funktioniert. Stark! Übrigens ist die foobar-App für Wndows genauso gut.

Great

Amazing offline music app, great for managing music by FTP and folders. Can we have lrc lyrics support at some point?

Can't repeat single track...

Can't repeat single track. Only full album.
No good for audiobooks.
No speed adjustment (for audiobooks)
Can't rewind or forward by a few seconds, only by using a bar which is not accurate with fat fingers.
I'll give full 5 stars when it will be possible

Absolutely incredible

Been using for years. Regularly maintained, bug free, faultless application. Feature rich, but still fast and light-weight.

The GOAT

completely dropped the itunes transfer system.

Cool

Top notch app for music…it would be nice if there would be an option to delete an item after playing

amazing But.. Lyrics!

ok i love f2k i use it all the time but. for the love of Everything pls add something to show my embedded lrc!! all my songs have it but i cant see them.. le sigh. Aside from that its perfect and nothing should change.

carplay support

Are there any plans to add CarPlay support?

5 stars, just missing a few things...

I've loved using foobar for a while now, and I love how it can play things like .vgm/.vgz module files and more. However, I wish for two things:
1) More compatibility for more video game music (like NSF subsong selection, GBS subsong selection, USF decoding, among others)
2) The ability to have some plugins built into the app. One particular one I enjoy is the SqrSoft Compressor/Limiter plugin, giving me that nice feeling of enjoying loud music without bursting my ears.

It doesn't matter how long it takes, I simply wish these can be implemented into the mobile app in the same way plugins work on the PC app.
Great app still!
