Best offline music player on iOS
I tested no fewer than 50 offline music player apps on iOS, and most of them felt half-baked in one way or another. Muziqi is the first one that really clicked.
If your files are properly tagged, the library experience is excellent. Smooth scrolling, clean presentation, full artwork, and album details that actually make browsing enjoyable rather than frustrating. Playback has been flawless for me so far.
I use Blip to transfer my FLAC files into the iOS Files app, and then Muziqi reads them directly from there. The workflow is smooth and reliable. Muziqi also supports other import options, but this Files-based setup has been the most convenient for me so far, especially if you’re managing a rotating offline library.
The developer is also unusually responsive. There are still a few issues I’ve run into, but the dev has acknowledged them and promised fixes in upcoming updates, which goes a long way.
Add an Apple USB-C dongle (or something like the FiiO KA11) to your iPhone, pair it with whatever IEMs or headphones you like, and you’ve got a genuinely excellent, no-nonsense budget audiophile setup.
Easy 5 stars.

Great app even without the pro subscription
I hate when apps make 90% of the functions behind a paywall. This app is the perfect middle ground and makes me want to give my money more. As far as the actual app goes it’s a great player with a little bit of an unintuitive ui, specially compared to Apple Music but it gets the job done. Would love more customization like in power amp on android.

Best iOS Music Player Around
After deciding I was done with DSPs, I was surprised to find that there were very few good mp3 players on the App Store. This is the best one, bar none. The lifetime subscription is a one time purchase and is worth the money. Specifically, the importing via server function is incredible and I use it all the time. Great product, please support the dev.

Just what I was looking for!
I’ve been using Muziqi for about 2 months now and I love it to bits. I was looking to ditch streaming platforms and I find the native Music app on iOS to be buggy (it kept duplicating my music and assigning cover art to the wrong albums). Muziqi has no such issues. I import through the Files app, which I had never used before. It was easy to learn how and I really enjoy the process of importing this way. It’s fun! Sometimes Files doesn’t capture album artwork, but I can add it back in through Muziqi’s search feature or by adding from my photo library for the more obscure albums it can’t find. I am obsessed with this level of customization. You can edit anything about a song or album’s metadata if you want, and you can change the app’s colour scheme and icon. If you like to be in control of your music library and enjoy the friction of finding and acquiring new music without an algorithm, this is the app for you!

For People With Legacy MP3 Library
I have MP3’s going back years. Plus I record my own music so services weren’t the answer for me. This is the player I needed. Importing from iCloud or Files works great.
The developer is very responsive too. I had some titles coming through as numbers and it turned out my tags were corrupted on my MP3’s. Can’t praise his professionalism enough. Thank you. And thanks for a great app.
