### 5/5 — Need Support!!

*2026-03-29*

Hi! I notice that you've been keeping the app updating over time, I'd love to use this but nothings working for me! Im on iPhone 6s Plus and running iOS 15.8.7, clicking the plus button doesnt show the file select and I cant make an email inquiry either. Please if you could update the app I would be so happy to finally use this!

### 2/5 — アップデートに期待

*2020-09-23*

好みの範囲ではありますが、もっと針とレコード本体が擦れる音やパリパリッというノイズ音を大きく設定できるようにしてほしい。
今後のアップデートの中で反映を望みます。検討よろしくお願いします。

### 1/5 — 1曲づつしか再生できない

*2020-04-30*

ライブラリから1曲づつ、しか再生されません。
改善して欲しい。

### 5/5 — Na endlich!!!!!

*2019-07-19, version 3.0.0*

Nach Jahren mal wieder reingeschaut und was sehe ich.....? Der Retroplayer kann endlich auf die Bibliothek zugreifen!!!! Zwar muss er Lieder erst importieren, dass macht er aber schnell und unkompliziert, im Gegensatz zu vorher. Jetzt gibt's einen 👍🏻 von mir, da es leider keinen adäquaten Ersatz für diese App gab und gibt. Man kann bis in's unendliche pitchen und der Leiereffekt, wenn man ihn nicht zu stark einstellt, gibt ruhiger analogakustischer Musik eine besondere Note. 

Ein Dank trotzdem an den Entwickler für das ziemlich späte Update!
Dafür gibt es dann einen Stern abgezogen!

Zum neuen Update 2019:
Habe gar nicht mehr erwartet, dass überhaupt noch ein Update kommen wird.
Lange Zeit ging der Import von Songs nicht mehr und die App stürzte ab. Nun funktioniert der Zugriff auf die Musikbibliothek wieder und jetzt auch in Stereo!! 
Schön wäre wenn die App auch im Hintergrund laufen würde und man das Display ausschalten kann. 
Aber trotzdem erstmal großen Dank für das lange erwartete Update!!!
Der RetroPlayer scheint nicht so großen Anklang gefunden zu haben, was ich sehr schade finde. Vielleicht liegt es daran, dass keiner genau erahnen kann was dieser Player bietet. 
Ein kurzes Video mit Hörbeispielen kann da vielleicht helfen.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2019-03-31*

This app is not working!Please cancel it!!

### 1/5 — 再生できない

*2017-11-11*

レコードがセットされ、回っていて、針が動かない、ノイズは聞こえるがどうやっても音楽の再生が始まらない。10曲位試したが成功出来ず。

### 4/5 — 良い！

*2015-11-24*

なかなか良いではありませんか。ただ、音飛びの設定を0にしても音飛びが起こります。その辺を修正してもらえたら星5つです。 で、もし加工済みの音が書き出せるようになれば☆ 10個かな(^_^)

### 5/5 — 使いやすい！！

*2015-01-16*

操作が簡単で取り込みも速いので使いやすいです。

### 4/5 — あと一歩ほしい

*2014-05-07*

レコードの歪みやノイズ表現、音飛びなどはローファイ音質好きとしては垂涎ものの出来栄えです。
欲を言えばイコライザなどの機能で高・低音域を削りスカスカな音を楽しみたいと思いました。

### 5/5 — 良質

*2014-05-06*

今さらのバージョンアップ？って思いましたが、曲の追加がとても簡単になった上に、レコードの絵も変わって、今までより断然良いですね。買って良かったです。
