### 5/5 — Все отлично

*2026-04-14*

Хорошее приложение. Перешел на него в связи с блокировками, цензурой и нежеланием платить за подписки. Стоит один раз подготовить библиотеку и можно слушать точно так же. Из пожеланий было бы хорошо добавить поддержку Яндекс диска и русского языка

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. I will try to integrate the yandex. I don’t speak Russian, but I think I can put the translation script on GitHub, and then you can help me translate it to Russian.

### 5/5 — Great player for FLAC and DSD, highly recommended.

*2026-04-05*

I have tried and tested many music players and HiFier is my favorite one. It plays many music formats like lossless and FLAC 24x192 and DSD with external USB DAC. HiFier supports cloud drive Google Drive and OneDrive and music server Novidrome and Emby. It can search globally Song Album and Artists among above services once you added. Amazing music player. Highly recommended to all music lovers!

### 4/5 — 什么时候加入天翼云盘？

*2026-04-04*

主要下载下来听我路由器硬盘里的无损音乐，基本功能是满足的，如果支持天翼云盘连接我就开终身会员了…毕竟我天翼有10个T的免费空间

**Developer response:** 天翼云盘目前无法支持，他们应该只针对特定的人开放接口，您可以请使用openlist通过webdav挂载。

### 5/5 — This may be the one

*2026-03-31*

I wanted to try and stream from my OneDrive (cloud) account and it just works, it’s crazy especially after using other apps that constantly look whole folders for changes. THANK YOU

HiFier for cloud storage is mainly a file picker (though whole folders play seamlessly if you tap only one file) but it doesn’t sort albums in a classic music library form if you don’t save for offline use. 
That’s a compromise I’m willing to make for now as the cache management is so good and all works really well as is.

Two suggestions I would love to see in future versions : 1. Dynamic change of the app background depending on the now playing album cover (not only in the player) 2.maybe a clickable widget would be nice 

I would also like to try out playlist import that look for songs title in a specific folder even if said playlist has been made elsewhere i.e. iTunes (older versions of Android apps like Samsung Music did that)

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback and support.
1. Regarding dynamic backgrounds: 
I have been considering this idea as well. However, ensuring that the overall UI remains aesthetic and all text stays clear is a significant challenge. This solution might make certain pages look less appealing. While the technical implementation is simple, I will experiment with this approach to see the results. If it works well, we will release it; otherwise, the feature may be postponed until we find a better solution.

2. Regarding clickable widgets and playlist imports: 
I need to look into the details of this request further. I am currently not fully clear on the specific playlist formats you mentioned or how the search should function (and whether there are industry standards involved). I will conduct further research on this.

Next Steps:
I will record your two questions on the GitHub page linked on the HiFier official website. If you are interested, you can check the progress there later.

Thank you again for your kind words and suggestions!

### 5/5 — 很好用，挂载的选项也比较多

*2026-02-28*

免费的就可以看到各种功能很堪用了，还有carplay支持歌词，我还没试，但是相信值这个价。我有个小请求，有没有办法出个lite版本支持ios14以前的机器，甚至iphone5s这样的。。。

**Developer response:** 目前使用的开发框架最低版本是15.1，之前的版本目前比较难支出了。 要想支持只能从头重新开发了。

### 5/5 — 非常值得推荐的本地播放器

*2026-02-23*

原汁原味的音乐太好了，市场上少见的良心播放器。建议后续版本更新可以加入更多界面自定义内容，比如专辑封面可选方正或圆形这样子，再就是建议歌词显示方式可以类似Apple Music那样的逻辑，更方便

**Developer response:** 好的，非常感谢您的肯定，后序看需求会考虑封面样式，歌词后序应该需要一个比较大的升级。

### 5/5 — Um excelente app. Simples e funcional.

*2026-02-20*

Atualizando minha avaliação. 

O aplicativo melhorou muito desde a última avaliação. Parabéns aos desenvolvedor pela melhoria significativa na interface. 
Sei que tem muito trabalho a ser feito, mas deixo aqui uma sugestão para integrar o Last.fm para fazer scrobble das músicas.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your feedback. 

1. Updating files’ meta will generate new files, it needs to upload all the new files back, and generally we want to delete the original files,and maybe you also want to update the artwork pictures. This process maybe too complex to implement on the same player app.  I will do it when I get a good enough idea in the future.

2. Batch deleting items from playlist is coming soon in the next version.

### 5/5 — 很棒

*2026-02-19*

功能非常全，所有的协议几乎全部支持，音质也很好，还支持聚合搜索。
因为是刚开始阶段，提个小建议（也有可能是已有但是未发现，哈哈）：建议增加iCloud同步功能，这个功能是刚需。
再次感谢作者开发这么好的app。

**Developer response:** 正在考虑同步的问题，其实目前已经在发布Android 版本了，目前的想法看看是否可以通过云盘同步歌单，这样可以同步所有设备了，不过流程比较复杂，需要一点时间

### 5/5 — 🎧 高保真音乐的宝藏播放器，HiFier太香了！

*2026-02-18*

支持网盘/NAS/DSD，功能全到离谱！新版修复bug后丝滑到飞起，通勤、开车都离不开它，强烈安利给所有爱听歌的朋友！🔥

**Developer response:** 非常感谢您的肯定

### 5/5 — 目前最好的Navidrome播放器

*2025-11-26*

使用过很多种支持Navidrome播放器，这是最好看最好用的一款，五星推荐！

### 5/5 — 音质超棒，期待115网盘加入

*2025-11-12*

开发小哥，快点加入115网盘！软件超赞，音质在众多播放器独一档存在，就差115加入了！（115网盘已经加入，非常好用，小哥能不能考虑一下CarPlay？）（CarPlay也加入了，非常好用，一路看着小哥跟他的app成长起来，可以说小哥非常用心，更新迭代很勤快）

**Developer response:** CarPlay 已经添加，下个版本就会支持，也可以在tg群里找test flight版本体验

### 4/5 — 最终还是加入了会员！

*2025-11-12*

这个软件刚出来的时候还可以！现在开始慢慢加入会员！广告了！基本中国的软件都是这样的！先是原生软件！然后下载的人多了！就开始加入会员制度！然后加入广告！离线音乐软件加入会员！我宁愿开苹果音乐会员！

**Developer response:** 一直不收费，我靠啥活着呢？

### 1/5 — Playback extortion - fight back

*2026-02-28*

Playing music at a party
From my server
This piece of excrement had the audacity to first throw a notification entirely in chinese, and then stop playing, demanding in another popover that i upgrade to some payment tier of .. well i wont waste my time reading this extortion note, i will uninstall and post a review
You utter scum

**Developer response:** Sorry, this app is not totally free. If you exceed the trialing limit. It will require you to watch ads. I have changed the trialing rule to make it easier to see the trialing time. Fixed the language problem.

Thanks for your feedback.

### 1/5 — 关于视频也要整一个单曲播放，循环的功能。 以前视频能跟音频混在一起播放，并切换播放模式的，想回到那个时候。 现在视频不能单个循环很不方便。 这些的功能都还没完善就收费，太可惜了

*2026-02-15*

**Developer response:** 有哪个app会支持这种神奇的逻辑，绝大部分人都用不到的按钮放在那，不觉得很干扰吗？拿一个奇怪的需求来给别人一星，你是哪里来的黑子？

### 1/5 — 一点连接就卡死

*2026-01-11*

26.0.1，想编辑服务器，下面四个选项“首页”“播放列表”“连接”“设置”，一点“连接”就卡死，然后就不能用了，打开就卡死然后闪退，只能删除重装，那个“连接”的选项点了必卡死。

**Developer response:** 现在已经修改了哈，启动app不会自动扫描服务器了，手动扫描，这个问题应该已经规避了

### 1/5 — 很喜欢

*2025-10-13*

作者是我用过支持navidrome协议最好用最美观的播放器，歌词布局希望能优化一下iPad，改成左右显示更好。另外价格下调一点点，就一点就更好了🤤

**Developer response:** Pad的优化，目前我们正在做，先是首页，目前已经支持pad方式了，后序会做一下播放页的横向显示。我会把需求放到app官网的GitHub上，如果方便可以关注下进度。

### 1/5 — Lies about data sharing

*2025-09-01*

They claim not to share your data, allow you to opt out, but according to their privacy team they share your metadata with a “database” in order to obtain lyrics. The lyrics are not accurate and read like AI.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your feedback. We claim not to collect your personal information. And we neglected to add the explanation of the online searching, we will add a switch for it and update the privacy policy.

### 3/5 — Great potential , but with still limited features

*2026-06-09*

I was looking for a alternative to Flacbox to stream my vast hi resolutions cloud music library and HiFier work so much better. It’s way more reactive and start to play selected music a lot faster. Now, if only it could generate a music library I could browse with album thumbnails( like Flacbox do with metadata ) instead I need to find my specific music trough my cloud tree folders. I’ll keep an eye out for future improvements, keep on the good work 👍

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback and support for HiFier! Regarding the music library scanning feature you mentioned, I’d like to explain why we haven't implemented this approach for the time being:1. Limitations of Metadata Quality and Server Rate Limits:HiFier supports a wide variety of cloud drives, but most of them place strict rate limits on third-party API requests. Once a threshold is crossed, the server will block access. In severe cases, a user’s entire cloud drive account could be temporarily suspended for a day (such as with 115 Drive), which causes massive frustration for both developers and users. High-frequency requests for online album covers would easily trigger these errors. While reading only embedded metadata tags (like Flacbox does) avoids online database calls, this workaround is far from perfect—if the music files lack proper embedded tags, the resulting library quality will be very poor. Yet, high-frequency tree scanning to fix this remains highly risky under cloud drive restrictions.2. Heavy Resource Consumption:We cannot predict the volume of our users' libraries—some users have hundreds of terabytes of data stored in the cloud. Even if the server doesn't throttle the requests, scanning at this scale would consume massive amounts of cellular data, battery, and time, which could lead to a poor user experience. Handling this kind of heavy-lifting work on a portable mobile device might not be the most ideal approach right now.3. Detecting New Files: If new files are added to the cloud, the app has no way of knowing without performing another full directory scan. Consequently, the time required for a re-scan scales up heavily with the total number of files in the cloud. 4. Storage and Local Database Backup: For massive collections, the generated local database itself becomes quite huge, eating up precious phone storage. Furthermore, if the app is ever reinstalled, that entire scanned database would be lost. Based on these current technical and user experience challenges, HiFier temporarily does not include a full file scanning feature. If you prefer to browse your collection as a structured library with thumbnails, we highly recommend using a media server instead. HiFier currently supports the most popular media server protocols (such as Navidrome, Subsonic, Jellyfin, and Emby). Handing the heavy scanning and scraping workload over to a dedicated media server running on a NAS or PC is much more efficient, keeping the mobile app lightweight and responsive. Additionally, unlike Flacbox, HiFier also supports video playback and can even browse PDFs and images. If we focused heavily on music scraping right now, it might overshadow these versatile extra features. In fact, many of our current users choose HiFier precisely because it keeps a clean, folder-based layout without forced scraping.Thank you again for your valuable input! We will keep optimizing the app, and I hope this helps clarify our current design considerations.

### 3/5 — 有bug但整体优秀

*2026-04-11*

这个播放器对于有nas的人来说真的很方便，添加音源的方式很便利，但是识别音乐标签和封面有很大bug每一首歌都显示识别成功，但你点更新之后，他显示的是上一首歌的封面，并且歌词也有点少。。。。。
并且因为是iphone版的，我是在mac上用所以操作有点不是很方便，没有歌词全屏或者桌面歌词之类的功能有点可惜。

**Developer response:** 您好，您说的音乐识别的问题，我这边复现不了呢，您可以通过app内的反馈渠道录制个视频反馈一下；歌词主要依赖资源的情况，没法做到百分之百准确，您可以手动添加歌词和封面的。

本app目前没有提供Mac版本，您在Mac上运行的是iPad版本，这个苹果商店在下载的时候也有显示的，所以iPad版本无法提供桌面歌词。

### 3/5 — 不支持iso

*2026-02-15*

不支持iso nrg，歌词匹配不正确，没法手动选择，音质方面和nplayer这些好像也没优势。

**Developer response:** sacd ISO 已经在1.5.12版本中支持；另外 你是nplayer过来做广告的吗？

### 3/5 — 小缺点

*2025-07-18*

非常不错的软件，只是不能批量编辑列表目录，如果可以直接加载文件夹就更好了。

**Developer response:** 已经支持了

### 4/5 — 功能问题

*2026-05-12*

cue格式无法加入播放列表，能够识别和播放。播放列表无合并功能，自动获取元数据准确度不够。

**Developer response:** 非常感谢您的反馈，
1. cue对应的文件不是真实文件，所以没办法加入到别的列表里，而且也不支持单独下载其中的一个歌曲，这个是格式的限制，如果不加限制，会导致很多奇怪的行为。
2. 播放列表合并功能，您可以在app内加入您方便的群进行详细沟通，我目前对这个功能还不太了解。
3. 在线匹配已经在新的版本中优化了，您可以清除元数据后再试试，目测提高了20%的准确度。

### 5/5 — 方便.音乐效果出众！

*2026-08-10*

试用期间，除了偶尔的声音挤撞在一起或不流畅稍微有点卡顿，没有发现其它的现象，而且不确定是网络问题还是解码器问题或者软件问题等。

### 5/5 — 为数不多我评论的APP

*2026-06-28*

这个APP亮点是可以把WebDAV 里的歌曲直接添加到自己的播放歌单里面。尤其是在CarPlay 上直接操作播放非常的方便。但是CarPlay 上返回逻辑貌似和其它app有点不一样，我不能一直按回退让它退出到CarPlay 的主页，需要按一下主页按钮才能退回来。

**Developer response:** 这个问题我研究一下返回键的处理，非常感谢反馈

### 5/5 — 越来越好用了！！！

*2026-06-21*

从内测就参与了，开发坚持不懈、持续更新，现在的版本越来越好用了，请继续努力，期待开发出更多优秀的app

### 5/5 — 很好很好

*2026-06-14*

界面好看，比较简洁，功能该有的都有。现在是主力

### 5/5 — 不错，简洁易用

*2026-06-14*

好不容易找到一个简简单单干干净净就是联网盘听歌的 app， 希望不要弄成其他 app 那种乱七八糟啥功能都要有杂七杂八的

### 5/5 — 小问题

*2026-06-11*

主要用于本地播放。在播放时 导入的文件未显示正在播放到哪一首。播放面板未能显示歌曲序号数字 默认只能循环播放 而不能顺序播放到结束终止

很耗电

**Developer response:** 可能有些文件播放失败自动跳到下一曲了，之前的版本缓存有点问题会导致此问题，可以尝试清除一下缓存再试试，如果还有，可以app内反馈给我，我这边能复现的话就解决

### 5/5 — 软件很不错，建议作者做Mac版本！

*2026-05-30*

今天试用了，软件很不错，等再试用一下Carplay，能正常使用就付费了。但发现没有Mac版本的，用手机版的不是太好用，尤其115网盘没办法正常登陆，而且也不美观，建议作者做一下Mac版本的。

**Developer response:** Mac版本目前是使用的iPad版本，确实体验没有原生pc版本的好，支持原生Mac目前还不在计划中，115网盘你可以在手机上登录，打开iCloud应该是可以同步到Mac上的。

### 5/5 — 不错，简洁易用

### 5/5 — hifier配nas很香

*2026-05-22*

下载收藏几年的歌总算能方便的听了，全部下载到手机内存又不够，用hifer解决了这个头疼的问题。

### 5/5 — 网盘支持很赞

*2026-04-30*

对比其他网盘类播放APP，这款很赞！几个小想法：1、能否像VidHub那样定位到固定文件夹，全网盘覆盖担心隐私问题；2、能否增加主屏幕小组件功能，让入口更方便；3、单个文件或者文件夹能否增加播放、下一首播放的选项，现在是加入列表、收藏、下载的选项，不是很直接。

**Developer response:** 非常感谢您的认可，想法1你是指的一个文件夹的快捷方式吗？现在是有的，如果是指只授权给app某个文件夹，这个需要网盘那边有类似的策略才行，比如阿里云盘目前就支持，其它国内云盘好像暂时不支持。 屏幕 小组件您想的是哪些入口呢？下一首播放的需求很多人提过，我需要想想怎么和现在的流程兼容一下。非常感谢您的支持，可以通过app进入您有的群组进行详细沟通。
