Best local video player on iOS!

The UI is so intuitive and the app is rock solid. Wouldn’t be without this app now

Promising App That Can Be Even Better

Outplayer is a really good app with a lot of potential. The UI is clean, and the overall experience is enjoyable. With a few key improvements, it could easily become one of the best video players.

The two features I feel are most important are:

1. More playback speed options – Please add finer controls like 1.1x, 1.2x, 1.3x, etc., instead of only the standard speed presets. This would make watching videos much more comfortable.
2. Manual aspect ratio controls – It would be great to have the ability to manually force different aspect ratios (such as Fit, Fill, Stretch, 16:9, 4:3, or Original). This would help when videos don’t display correctly.

Overall, it’s an excellent app that just needs these features to make it even better. Keep up the great work!

AWESOME VIDEO PLAYER

Thank you SOOOOOOOO MUCH…for adding back the volume boost feature. Unless there was a bug in my installation, I couldn’t get the volume boost feature that I loved so much when I downloaded this app years ago. I was really hoping to have it back. Looks like it was bright back in a previous update, but I never noticed it. Makes such a big difference when in on a noisy train watching a movie with my Bluetooth headphones. 10 STARS!!!

There are better options.

Just wanted a free video app, don't want to see features I can click then be informed come on pay up.

I wish there was a way to just hide anything in these apps that was paid junk.

Moved to infuse app, if that fails I'll use Vic.

Couldn’t ask for anything better

Probably when I bought it years ago the loop option didn’t save. The developer appears to have made it save the “Mode” when you set it to loop since I’ve last used the app. I tested it after they replied to me. They were hard to contact before when I first purchased the app. App has everything I could ask for at this point and runs amazingly! Thanks for letting me know of the new functionality.
