Rideo: Local Video Player

Meet Rideo: the minimalist, highly customizable, and radically native local media player for iPhone and iPad. Rideo is built on three core principles: Open, Play, Loop. It was designed from the ground up for users who want complete control over their viewing experience without the bloat, subscriptions, or complicated library management of traditional media apps. ZERO DUPLICATION, IN-PLACE PLAYBACK Rideo never copies your media. It plays your files directly from the iOS Files app, iCloud Drive, or plugged-in external volumes. This saves your device's storage space and means your videos are ready to play the instant you open them. No import loading bars, no duplicate files—just open and play. BROAD FORMAT SUPPORT Whether you're watching home videos or high-quality movie rips, Rideo has you covered. Enjoy silky-smooth playback for MP4, M4V, MOV, MKV, AVI, and WebM files. RADICAL CUSTOMIZABILITY Rideo adapts to you, not the other way around. Every aspect of the user interface can be tweaked to your exact preferences: • Control Bar: Pin it to the top, bottom, left, or right. Make it floating or attached, and adjust its opacity. • Player Controls: Choose exactly which buttons appear on your screen (Play/Pause, Loop, Skip, Scrubbing, and more). Disable everything for a pure, distraction-free viewing experience. • Library Layout: Customize your grid size, adjust cropping behavior, and sort your library exactly how you want it. • Theme: Personalize Rideo with custom accent and highlight colors. • Gestures: Configure custom actions for screen taps. BUILT FOR PRIVACY & SEAMLESS SYNC Your library is entirely per-device and local-only. Rideo doesn't track your media. However, all of your meticulous UI customizations and preferences sync seamlessly across your iPhone and iPad via iCloud. POWERFUL EXTRAS • Timers: Built-in sleep and session timers. • Loop & Continuous Play: Endless playback options for ambient videos or binge-watching. • iPad Optimized: Native split-view support and seamless drop-to-import functionality. • Dynamic Accessibility: Full VoiceOver support, dynamic type, and adjustable scrubbing intervals. Stop fighting with bloated media managers. Reclaim your storage and your viewing experience with Rideo.
