Interface lang

please add the ability to select a localization in the app. I want to use the English interface instead of my phone's default language

Response from developer

This is possible in the iOS Settings app > Apps > Nautiline, and select "Preferred Language". I will consider adding a setting within the app though.

Great UI, quite a few bugs

Radio Stations - Audio cuts when starting a channel and frequent interruptions makes it harder to enjoy radio added through Navidrome.

Overall stability - Despite multiple reinstallations and even after restarting a new Navidrome instance, Nautiline is experiencing inconsitent streams, with songs becoming impossible to play for a few seconds up to a minute, forcing a few app reboots in order to bring it back. In these instances, quick/full sync does not help.

Also, i can frequently see m4a automatically switch to a lower bitrate AAC format, which is unwanted yet it still happens despite having strong internet connectivity. Same goes for FLAC which sometimes, for some reason, cannot reliably play all the time, with FLAC songs sometimes not wanting to play at all for a few seconds, much like the issue i pointed above.

I still give 3 stars because the dev has replied in a timely manner to my email regarding a certain question i had, which is appreciated.

I also refrain from giving more because the app felt more stable when i first purchased it.

Response from developer

Sorry about those issues, I'd like to hear more about them in an email so I can track down what's changed, since the overall stability of the app shouldn't have gotten worse over time. A few questions: What does it mean for a song to be impossible to play? Nautiline doesn't transcode anything to AAC, so what bitrates are you seeing when streaming m4a vs what you expect? Do all of these issues happen on strong connections? Are you connecting through a VPN, Tailscale, Cloudflare tunnel, or directly?

Great app

Switched from Amperfy to this app and it's honestly way more complete. No bugs and a great UI, that's all I asked for.

Good but…

Overall good and beautiful, but a few features missing:

1. Playlist auto download, so i don’t have to hit download every time i add a music to the list
2. Select multiple songs in all songs, then add them to a playlist, currently I have to move them one by one
3. There is no option to auto download or at least download all favorite tracks

super responsive developer

had two issues so far but i reported it to the developer and he fixed it promptly. so happy with the app it’s beautiful and fast and everything i needed and more!

Best client for navidrome

I’ve tired quite a few clients for navidrome, and this is the best one I have used. Definitely will be purchasing the full app after my trial finishes.
Thank you dev :)

Très bon travail !

J’utilise Nautiline depuis peu car je voulais me désabonner de Spotify. Au début la transition est assez difficile car il faut changer des habitudes. J’ai comparé avec les autres applications équivalentes mais Nautiline est de loin la meilleure. Très bon travail sur l’interface utilisateur, l’ergonomie et l’application est entièrement personnalisable. Au final, un parfait équilibre, un mix entre Spotify et Apple Music mais en mieux !

Flawless!

The best app I’ve found so far. Paying the one off ten quid payment for an app of this quality is honestly a no brainer.

It works great with my navidrome server. No stutters, lags, or syncing issues as i’ve experienced with other clients.

its a great looker as well. the default layout is designed well to not need much tinkering to get it to a aesthetically pleasing level, but the devs have so gracefully added the option to configure things to your liking as well.

Surprised to find out there’s only 9 reviews so far for this app. Hopefully the developers will be able to keep extended support for this project.

Great player

Super convenient for me, widget view is a great feature. Design is clean and convenient. No problems with navidrome library scanning (using latest stable version). And actually, custom headers support was a decisive feature for me. Thanks for your work, you are doing an outstanding product. Some features that I hope some day will be added are endless playing, instant mix, similar songs recommendations, radio mode (I use audiomuse with navidrome for that).

Response from developer

Thanks for your review, You can start a radio/instant-mix by long pressing a track and selecting "Radio". I am planning on adding endless playback and radio mix support for albums/artists when I verify behavior between different server types. Endless playback in particular has been on my list for a while and I'll try to get it out soon.

Excellent

Très paramétrable, plein de possibilités, application très évolutive. Un grand merci 🙏

Вроде не плохо, но есть нюанс.

Приложение на первый взгляд приложение выглядит хорошо, но не хватает нескольких вещей, которые заставили бы меня его купить:
1. Нет мультиязычности интерфейса.
2. Нет никаких быстрых подборок по годам.

Response from developer

Спасибо за ваш отзыв. В следующее обновление (1.2.3) включен перевод на русский язык, выполненный одним из наших пользователей. ---- Thanks for your review, The next update (1.2.3) includes a Russian translation made by a generous user.

Schmeisst mich beim Scan raus

So eine App, die nichtmal beim ersten benutzen nichtmal funktioniert hat keine zweite Chance verdient. Als ich versucht habe meine Lieder zu synchronisieren hat er mich immer wieder sofort aus der App rausgeworfen. Hab sie dann direkt gelöscht und suche eine bessere. Die gibt es sicher. Das wird nicht schwer sein eine bessere zu finden .

Super app für navidrome

Sehr gute App, UI and UX gut, downloads möglich für offline modus sind ein muss! Und, kann carplay :) wollte weg von US Tech Giganten und bin hier gelandet und geblieben

Stellar.

Snappy, customizable, consistent. Hard to find all three, but Nautiline does them all so well.

Unable to sync folders

Beautiful UI but got an issue when I tried du sync my folders. I’m unable to click on that button what ever I’ve tried nothing seems to work

Best iOS app for navidrome.

It just works, and has every function and feature you’d need and is very customisable. :3

Best Navidrome Client

I’ve tried every iOS Navidrome client available and there some good ones, but none that tick every box. Nautiline does! Easily worth the one time price.

Best Music Client out there

Such an amazing client so far nothing to really complain about.

aesthetics wise It would be cool to toggle an on and off option to see or disable the technical parts.

For example, when playing music under the album picture, someone would see Opus • 130 Kbps • local. Instead of seeing that, it can just say loseless audio. We can be given the option to have it off or on.

Another thing is when playing music from random tracks. When I click play, it would look nice if the arrow was on-top of The music art instead of black.

Overall this app is cool, nothing to really complain about. Also worth every cent. Great job!

No info on trial or what paid features are

Looks like you can’t do anything without starting a “7 day trial”, but there’s no info either in the App Store description or in the app about what the paid vs free features are? How are we supposed to see if it’s something we would want?

Response from developer

Thanks for your review, The app itself is paid, and the free trial has no commitments. The trial is the way you see if it's something you want. The trial lasts for seven individual days (so if use it one day and don't use it for a week, you'll still have six days left) and at the end it's your choice if you want to purchase, it's not automatic.

Amazing stuff

Love the app thank you !
