### 2/5 — Bug report

*2026-07-05, version 3.13.0*

When an action movie is playing on the iPad Pro 3rd generation m1, the screen goes completely dark for a moment and then returns to the previous state. I tested it and this problem is only in the nplayer app.

### 2/5 — This would be five stars, but contacting support is impossible.

*2026-06-27, version 3.13.0*

It’s an absolute brilliant app worth your five stars so I have intentionally put this down to 2 stars in a hope that the developer contact me. 

I have tried to contact the developer on numerous occasions, but I’m totally being ghosted.

They have either stopped developing the app or don’t care enough about their customer base. 

Happy to give the five stars if I can get one simple yes or no answer to a question I have asked in the past  

I would even post it here again

WILL YOU EVER BE RELEASING AN APPLE TV VERSION OF THE APP?

Simple question and he really needs a yes or no answer. 

Either way, I will increase the stairs back up to 5 whether it be yes or no.

### 3/5 — No upgrades

*2026-05-22, version 3.13.0*

I’ve bought nPlayer paid version for $4.99. 
For me there are not enough features. Usually, in this case, but another application, you pay additional money and get upgraded application, higher level. In this application there is no this option. You have to buy another application, nPlayer Plus in my case. So what for I need 2 same application, otherwise I wast $4.99 for nothing! No good

### 3/5 — Love it but

*2026-04-25, version 3.13.0*

The project feature seems to be missing now.

### 3/5 — Glitches when casting

*2026-03-09, version 3.13.0*

Has trouble casting and stutters.  Also does not resume properly after pausing video and crashes.  App and video needs to be restarted and playback to start from beginning.

### 3/5 — Okay

*2026-01-27, version 3.13.0*

Overall I like it, but it only supports chromecast for audio, not video. If you try to cast a video to the tv only the sound plays to a blank screen

It also does not handle MOV_TEXT subtitles correctly. The html codes are visible on screen

And finally, there is no sleep timer

### 3/5 — 2025.12.17 пора ОБНОВИТЬ

*2025-12-17*

Приложение ужас но тормозит !! Прошу по фиксить уважаемые разработчики исправить лаги и ускорить отклик интерфейса проигрывания плеера в малом режима проигрывания плохо очень плохо срабатывают пауза 
Браузер добавьте в браузер полноценный  Гугл сафари и.т.д
Так же прошу вас внедрить все возможности браузера так как при скачивание с вашего браузера нет возможности скрывать рекламу и все остальное что мешает полноценно пользоваться всеми сервисами полноценных браузеров ! Это важно 
Поставлю так же в меню iTunes сделайте уже возможность удалять не нужные папки по умолчанию , вы конечно молодцы что сделали как нужно но не забывай к что вы сделали для пользования людей и что многое может быть не нужным дайте в конце концов возможность настроить под себя плеер для нашего удобства пожалуйста ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 4/5 — 多機能で良い

*2025-11-16*

安定してるし、自宅のWindowsサーバーからのファイル読み込み速度も早いので概ね満足です。
実用上で大きく困る事はないですが、時々動画のサムネイルが全く別のものになってしまうのが残念。あとは個人的な要望ですが、H.265の動画に対応したら嬉しい。

### 4/5 — Türkçe dil

*2025-10-23, version 3.13.0*

Uygulama çok güzel fakat türkçe dil desteğide olsaydı güzel olmazmıydı

### 4/5 — Almost Perfect

*2025-10-05, version 3.13.0*

Need subtitles resize feature.

### 3/5 — ズームしながら移動

*2025-09-19*

ピンチをズーム、二本指移動でビデオパンに設定したらiOS標準ビデオプレーヤーみたいに動画再生中にズームしながらそのまま2本指で移動も同時にできたらなぁ。今の仕様だと、ズーム、移動と別々の操作になってしまうので、そこをシームレスにして欲しい。あと、もっさり動作なのがね..惜しい

### 3/5 — Nonpractical intrface

*2025-09-12, version 3.13.0*

I like this app, it has a lot of great features, but I have a comment . Mniiplayer is really very small... the fullscreen view is impractical and unintuitive, the buttons are placed in an inconvenient place. Miniplayer is practically unusable on a large display and not at all on a small one... for example jetAudio has solved it very well...

### 1/5 — Сломали

*2026-04-25*

Не воспроизводит звук сериалов и фильмов старых. VLC воспроизводит без проблем. Сломали приложение, раньше видео воспризводилось без проблем , обновил и теперь некоторые видео нельзя смотреть, очень долго грузятся и пропадает звук. Также пропала функция, чтобы после воспроизведния последнего файла в папке, начать воспроизводить сначала. Ipad pro 12.9 m1

### 1/5 — DOES NOT SUPPORT DTS HEADPHONE X

*2026-03-17, version 3.13.0*

If you want something like this get the plus version otherwise pretty good

### 1/5 — No support

*2025-12-21, version 3.13.0*

No support. Can’t even import a subtitle file. Tries to load opensubtitles.org, for some reason, which is a garbage website full of malicious links and redirects.

### 1/5 — 多重同時字幕表示ができない

*2025-12-11*

日本語と英語など、複数の言語の字幕を表示できるという触れ込みがあったので勉強用に購入したが、どうやっても1つの言語でしか表示できなかった。買った意味がなくなってしまったし、問い合わせしても返事がないのでので星1評価。

### 1/5 — refund

*2025-11-04, version 3.13.0*

asla indirmeyin paraya çöküyorlar kullanmadığınız hizmeti iade bile etmiyolar. yorumlarıda siliyolar. mail attım cesaretiniz varsa parayı geri göndermeyin bakın ozaman ne oluyor

### 1/5 — Było bardzo dobrze, ale…

*2025-10-26, version 3.13.0*

Niestety w ostatniej wersji na ios 18.7 ma gigantyczne problemy z dźwiekiem, poprostu w pewnym momencie przestaje ottwarzać dźwięk w wideo, nie wiem na razie jakie jest obejscie tego problemu, tymczasowo pomaga restart ale nie na długo

### 1/5 — 注意！グーグルドライブは使えない。

*2025-10-11, version 3.13.0*

サムネではグーグルドライブが読み込めることになってるのに実際は使えません。800円損しました…。詐欺です。

### 1/5 — google drive都連不上？

*2025-10-10, version 3.13.0*

這個app到底還有什麼用？

### 1/5 — Remove gdrive

*2025-08-27, version 3.13.0*

Why remove google drive source????

### 1/5 — No TV

*2025-08-12, version 3.13.0*

Tv casting is no longer available, the app is absolutely useless.

### 5/5 — BEST APP!

*2026-07-05, version 3.13.0*

I needed a app that had speed control, music playing, pause fast forward, next track, video streaming, folders, network and this app did it for me! Thank you so much!

### 5/5 — Seems the best, by a mile.

*2026-06-06, version 3.13.0*

This is the one to get for local video playback. It's unmatched as far as I've seen, and nice to use. Except...

Bugs:
After you AirPlay a h.265 video and pause it, you won't be able to play it locally again without video stuttering (unless you disable hardware decode). That's a pretty huge bug.
On top of that, the external document picker doesn't let you pick any files at all, meaning you have to import (duplicate) everything.

nPlayer Plus:
There's an upgraded version called nPlayer Plus but no way to upgrade to it. It's a separate purchase. I'm not sure if "Dolby Sound Effect" in Plus is a surround-sound feature or something else. Searching was inconclusive.

Cloud storage:
The built-in cloud services generally don't work because the authentication methods are way out of date. This is ironic cos it has a browser built-in already.

Media servers:
I'd like to see support for some of the popular proprietary media servers, but I don't currently use one so it's no issue for now.

Apple Watch:
This is top of my list for nPlayer. It would be cool if it had an Apple Watch app, and if it could transcode videos to the right resolution for the Watch to play. Some people say it's a gimmick, but it's not - listening through headphones and being able to glance at the screen is a practical way to watch many things, and that suits the Watch even better than it suits the iPhone.

Apple TV:
It's surprising that it doesn't have an AppleTV app, but I don't mind. It can AirPlay to the AppleTV and to AirPlay-compatible TV sets.

### 5/5 — Better than VLC

*2026-05-15, version 3.13.0*

I was a linguine VLC user across all platforms beforei found this app. This is so good, absolutely the best for video and audio.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2026-04-24*

With local files🤩

### 5/5 — Vielen Dank für diese App

*2026-04-03*

Seit der ios 26 Katastrophe werden beim iPad nur Bildchen von den Clips, die über iTunes geladen werden angezeigt. Diese App ist die Rettung. Und man kann, was bei apple noch nie möglich war, Filtern bzw. Suchen. Vielen Dank

### 5/5 — Cannot play next music when play via samba

*2025-10-21, version 3.13.0*

After play a track then stop, not play a next track

### 5/5 — Top App but no Data transfer to new iPhone

*2025-09-09*

Die App ist top was sie an Services anbiete, File Manager, super Video! & Audio Player (nur die Audio Playlisten sind Verbesserung fähig,für mich unwichtig, weil ich dafür andere App habe), Search Funktion sehr gut,
ABER bei Übergang auf ein neuen iPhone, werden die Videos, Audios & Dokumenten NICHT übertragen !?! (ich verwalte damit ca. 100GB ! alles zusammen). 
ALLE Apps übertragen 100% alle ihre Daten, nur nPlayer nicht !? neueste iOS Vers. 18.6.2
Es gibt auch keine Verbindung zum: iCloud !?
Die interne "Netzwerk" Funktion, die man für verbinden von 2 iPhone benutzen könnte, funktioniert NICHT(gleiche WLAN & Bluetooth aktiv)
Ich habe bis jetzt keine Lösung in IT gefunden..
wie kann ich 100GB (geordnet in verschiedene Folder!) auf neuen iPhone übertragen??!!

### 5/5 — 长按倍速功能

*2025-09-02, version 3.13.0*

大多数视频网站都支持长按倍速，已成为使用习惯，期待支持此功能

### 5/5 — Love this

*2025-07-04, version 3.13.0*

I use this to play music I've produced myself as it's far simpler to add to than Apple Music.  Love it, the only slight niggle I have is the play button on the mini player is too small and I can't always press it, otherwise it's a fantastic and very useful app.

### 5/5 — Перемотка тормозит

*2025-05-02*

При перемотке видео не проигрывается. Только сначала после сбрасывания истории воспроизведения
