Would love to see an update with the following new features: First, something similar to Apple Music’s volume leveller so that the volume across multiple albums stays the same. Second to be able to mix the Hi-Res library with the iTunes when, for example listening on shuffle. Finally, full car play support. Thanks for a great app ### 5/5 — 我下载了这个内购版本,没有下载新版,希望收费能互通,不然这个版本没同步更新就不好了! *2026-07-27* 中途暂停后播放就自动切歌,希望修复!能增加音箱模式就更好了! ### 5/5 — CarPlayで使えるようにして！ *2026-07-12* 乗り換える車のイコライザーが低域、中域、高域の３つしか調整できない。 そういえばOnkyoアプリは16バンドイコライザーで音質も良かったなあと思いチャッピーにCarPlayでOnkyoアプリは使えるか聞くと、「使えますよ！」ということでダウンロードしようとすると、有料？いつの間に有料になったんだ？それでもイコライザーが充実している高音質アプリで更にCarPlayも使えるなら1600円も安い！ ダウンロードするとCarPlayで使えない… チャッピーに問いただした。 「ごめんなさい間違えました」と返答。まじかよ… CarPlayで使えるなら2500円でも払うのでCarPlayで使えるようにして下さい。お願いします。 ### 1/5 — Does not work with dsd *2026-05-31, version 2.19.0* Does not work with dsd ### 1/5 — Жулики *2026-03-19* Деньги сняли причем дважды а прога так и осталась демо версия что только не делал а не видит даже FLAC ### 5/5 — Super player aber *2026-02-14* braucht ein Update. iOS 26 macht Probleme. Coveranzeige usw. ### 3/5 — Update destroyed the player *2025-12-19, version 2.19.0* The players deleted all the songs and won’t allow downloads. It makes it so you have to pay for their other app. What a scam! Update: Not a scam! The player works. The deletion of all the songs was because of the app settings being changed by what can only be presumed was because of the updating of the operating system on the device that has the app on it, without any notification of what changed. ### 2/5 — かゆいところに手が届かないUIが少し気持ち悪いです *2025-12-16* 基本的にはアルバム一覧やプレイリストから曲を流しているのですが、アプリの起動時にデフォルトで表示されるタブがアーティスト一覧で固定されている点が地味に不便です。 些細な問題ではあるのですが、音楽を聴くために何度もアプリを開くからこそ結構なフラストレーションが溜まります。 Android版では表示するタブの編集が出来るのに、なぜiOS版では不可能なのでしょうか？対応していただけたらありがたいです。 Android版との違いで言えば、プレイリスト内などで曲タイトルと並んでアルバムアートが表示されないのもなかなか不便です。 プチリリを介して歌詞を表示できる点は便利ではあるのですが、そもそもユーザーが勝手に投稿しているものなので間違いなども多く、また、カラオケのように強調して表示されるのも正直なところ情緒もへったくれもなくて不快な時があります。 とは言え、これはプチリリ側の問題でありアプリのせいではないのですが、せめてプチリリではなくこちら側で用意した歌詞を表示する等の選択肢があればいいなと思いました。 ### 2/5 — Fix Needed *2025-11-18, version 2.19.0* It seems there’s a paywall in the way to truly use this app. With many better options being free, there’s no reason to pay for this one. It’s not that special. ### 2/5 — Great app, but broken no support *2025-10-30, version 2.19.0* How is this app different than the one with the blue icon? I can’t get it to play anything faster than 48khz PCM on iPhone 17 ProMax. Sad, because I like the interface but this is a deal killer. Add to that a completely unresponsive vendor and it’s now no good to me. I’m opting for foobar, which can access my whole onkyo library on the phone ## Frequently asked questions about Onkyo HF Player ### What does the Onkyo HF Player app do?
