Question
Can I connect my Google Cloud to this app?
Shuffle and playback buttons
The app is really good but I wish i can have access to shuffle and playback buttons which is i rate the app 4 stars
Response from developer
Hey there, long-press the play/pause button and you'll see the shuffle and repeat modes.
Good

Amazing!
I’ve been using the app for a few months and it’s getting consistent updates with insanely useful features! there are very few flac apps that have a queue feature that works like any of the major streaming apps and i’ve had nothing but positive feelings using this to play my 10k+ songs. + as i add more it seamlessly adds them into my library as soon as they make it to my phone

Excellent stand alone player
I am a long time user of digital media, having the original MP3 players and iPods when they were first available. I have been wanting for some time to get back to that no-nonsense experience where I can put my own libraries on my own device and use them without curation as a playback device. Apple now goes out of their way to make this use case very difficult. iTunes has messed up my music libraries several times and I have gave up on it. Pentaton is the best app I’ve came across that embraces this standalone use case (I had previously used Foobar2000 and VLC, plus some poorly executed iPod clones). The polished experience the app offers is worth the price - on the phone and with car play it “just works” in the manner I would expect it to. Rather than invest in an expensive standalone player, I think you are better off with a high capacity modern iPhone paired with this app. If you are looking for a well built standalone music player for iOS, you will not go wrong with this app.

谷歌邮箱可以联系到开发者吗
虽然是刚上市不久的播放器，但是功能已经很成熟，开发者也在积极迭代更新，希望经过和开发者的反馈，小问题可以已经解决，现在人工智能发达，开发者一个建议，用AI写程序会简单很多，最后希望开发者越来越好
Works well with large libraries
Love it! Tossed a 35,000 song library at it completely unsorted in a rats nest of poorly named folders using no organization strategy whatsoever and it built out a library with ease. Any chance we could get a shuffle all songs option sometime in the future in CarPlay? It doesn’t seem to be able to handle this size of library on the tracks page in CarPlay and the app crashes sadly. That would put this up there with Poweramp. Great stuff!

Good App but Missing...
Limited functions in carplay. Artwork, previous/next song does not appear in carplay. Have to use phone.
Missing some features
I’m on an iPhone SE 2022 and I can’t really see the parametric EQ visualizer, it’s squished at the top of the screen. Otherwise great app, I wish it had shuffle for tracks/albums/playlists.
finally
ive used pentaton now for maybe 6 months? i was looking for a way that i could play the music library i own without having to push through multiple ads and streaming landing pages. ive mostly switched back to my 2009 vid ipod for music, but i did want a "bridge" app (for lack of a better term) that i could play my synced library on my phone also if i wanted to. this has fit the bill perfectly. it has all the most simple and necessary functions of a music player. it looks very similar to the way the original itunes organized things, and easily syncs your itunes music. it is SHOCKING how difficult it is to find something that just lets you play your music, and as far as i can tell, this is the only one. 5 stars.

音质很好 功能性欠佳
希望可以看到歌曲封面和歌词 类似于apple music那种 再就是可以随机播放以及歌曲定位 目前来看泛用性不是很广 优化一下买单的人也会多一些 因为音质已经很好了
Great UI and app
Might be nice if we have queue features like rearrange etc. Albums is just empty not showing like other apps. Option to save eq as a file will be good to have.
Fantastic app!
I love the App As I've Installed had this for a while. It has returned in a lot of ways Since purchasing Pentaton LifeTime there are some Perplexities I have found to notice, even After installing the Latest updates for every supported Apple OS that I have: Tracks can spontaneously pause after being left in the background with the screen off; New users might find there to be more of a learning curve as new features get implemented as opposed to legacy users. A tutorial of some variety might be useful in the future; Relaying semantics and location of Pentaton playlists and their assorted contents between devices via .m3u8 file Seems to persistently fail regardless of playlist size or how symmetrical those devices respective library contents are to each other. It just says sync error and it gets the name of playlists correct while leaving the playlist empty. I don't know precisely causing all of this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯...Just mine perspective though So hope that This helps. Cheers!

Great app .
Exactly what I was looking for when I wanted to move my music offline and control my own tracks . Happily a lifetime membership owner .
Response from developer
Thank you!
Great, needs some extra menu features
The app is great, it has a great EQ and looks very clean.
I just wish there was an "idle" screen with a progress bar and album cover on the app itself. The only way to know how long there is remaining in a song is to close my phone and view it from the lockscreen. There doesn't seem to a good place to "rest" your screen in the app itself while music plays. Having my screen open to strictly menus and whatnot makes me feel like I'm going to accidentally bump my screen and select another song. My instinct is to tap on the bottom label where the song name is, and have it "open up" a menu for the song where most of the screen is a sort of exhibit/display of the currently-playing track, and where a mindless touch of the screen won't do anything.
It would also be nice to have an in-app genre labelling.
I highly recommend this app.

Decent.
The app is easy to use and functions well. I really like the EQ presets built that are built in. Please note that you can trial the app before purchasing. The price is high but I hope more features are added in the future. I would like to see widgets.
potentially good
I think the app can be very good but it misses a screen player like on any other app
Response from developer
You'll be delighted by next version then!
Great app!
Efficient, no nonsense high fidelity music player for iOS. I love the no noise approach this app takes, which makes it my favorite music app overall. My preference is that it always stays this focused on keeping things simple and classic.
Fast perfekt!
Sehr gute Bedienung, guter Equalizer, für jedes Ausgabegerät automatisch die angepassten Einstellungen 👍 Mir fehlt leider noch die Möglichkeit für Car Play und so wie bei gängigen Playern dieses „einzelne Fenster“ wo das Cover gezeigt ist, was gerade angespielt wird.
Love it but frustrated
Love it, sounds great, looks great, brings me back to the old days before streaming
But!
Pentaton keeps “removing” albums from my library every couple weeks that I have to go back into my files to add. Not sure what this is about, and it’s not difficult to deal with but man oh man is it annoying.

That sounds super annoying! Could you drop a line to hello@pentaton.app with some more details so we can figure out what is happening together?
