### 5/5 — MIDI

*2025-05-20, version 1.5.2*

Great app, highly recommended

### 1/5 — Impenetrable

*2024-02-11, version 1.5.2*

There are no obvious Help options, and after deleting the demo sample by mistake, without having played it, there is no obvious way to import a MIDI file. 

There is an option to import a playlist, but from where? And it's useless if you only want to import 1 file. Why can't we Copy and Paste a file into the app from Downloads?

The only useful options were to close the app, and then to delete it.

So, an undeserved 1 star. It really needs 0 stars.

### 5/5 — Brilliant Midi Player
