All content listed correctly. However, when I select a file to play, it only plays for a minute and then aborts. I have to go back and start from scratch at that point. Like the other reviewer said: doesn’t fully work as is, needs polishing. ### 4/5 — A simple player *2019-04-27, version 2.2* Works fairly well, works a bit slow when loading all artists. I think maybe it's making a new library request to the daap server each time. Less memory used but slower. Will not work with iTunes 7+ shares, but that's due to apple's authentication. ### 4/5 — Puristic *2018-10-25, version 2.2* But does what it should . Great work ! Thanks !! A Pity, that it doesn t support Login with authorization. ### 3/5 — Good but some drawbacks *2017-10-01, version 2.2* A nicer gui would be great and a better battery usage. ### 3/5 — Free and Buggy *2017-08-18, version 2.2* For the connection to my iTunes home-share, it throws an error that cannot be clicked because is it behind the working grey screen and not in focus. For the connection to my NAS, when I select a song it immediately throws a connection error but proceeds to slowly download the song in the background and eventually plays it. It seems like a good college project that could use a little more testing and polishing. ### 2/5 — 落ちてしまう *2016-05-21, version 2.0.0* 数千曲以上が入っているサーバに接続しようとすると、必ず落ちます。試しに音楽用に使っていない、数十曲しか入っていないサーバを試したところ、問題なく動作しました。 数が原因なのかはっきりとはわかりませんが、使えなかったということで評価は低めにしました。 ### 2/5 — Only option and it doesn't work *2015-03-01, version 2.0.0* Looking for a DAAP CLIENT. There is only this one. Streams and works well. Just not configured for io7 or larger screens and crashes as soon as you press any button other than a list item Really wish this app was updated. ### 2/5 — Almost works *2013-04-14, version 2.0.0* Connects to daap share from rhythm box in Ubuntu and shows all track info and genres, etc. Unfortunately, it won't play anything. It just returns an error about the server not responding to request for music. ### 3/5 — Password support needed please *2012-11-09, version 2.0.0* Check the forums, do a google search and this is the app for streaming iTunes servers to an iOS device, but without password protection. ### 2/5 — Promising but.. *2012-11-06, version 2.0.0* Crashes on connection to forked-daapd ### 1/5 — Crash crash crash *2012-07-09, version 2.0.0* Crash crash crash ### 3/5 — Password support pls *2012-06-17, version 2.0.0* It works fine but it really needs to get the password sorted. Until then 3 stars for now ### 3/5 — need rework *2012-06-08, version 2.0.0* no forked-daapd :-( no iPad interface Airplay ### 1/5 — Crash *2012-05-26, version 2.0.0* Crashes on iOS 5.1 when I select a shared library. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2012-05-04, version 2.0.0* Crashes instantly on iphone4s 5.1 ### 3/5 — good enough in a pinch *2012-05-02, version 2.0.0* it's really basic, but it works in a pinch. i don't even mind that the listing is all text-based. not displaying album art only serves to speed it up. but password support would go a long way. and (previous song)/(play/pause)/(next song) controls would be nice. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2023-05-04, version 2.2* Connect never load music or any kind of content ,need a lot work at the moment wast of time and bandwith ### 1/5 — It does not work *2023-01-28, version 2.2* It does not work at all with my DAAP server ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with rhythmbox as source *2021-12-07, version 2.2* I have Ubuntu 18. Daap is enabled in rhythmbox. Simple daap does not find it. ### 1/5 — Crashes when you select song *2018-01-07, version 2.2* ^ ### 1/5 — Unusable on modern devices *2015-03-18, version 2.0.0* It’s hard to believe, but this is the only app on the App Store that allows you to play music off of an iTunes DAAP Server. Unfortunately, it is very out of date. The last update it received allowed it to run in the background (back when that was a new iPhone OS feature). It doesn’t have iPhone 6 (Plus) support, or iPhone 5 screen support, iPad support, or even Retina Display support. And being now on iOS 8, it opens up, but that’s about it. Please make a new app, hell, even charge for it. People would pay a dollar or two for an app with this functionality. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2013-12-15, version 2.0.0* App opens ok but crashes while connecting to Miro. Not useable. ### 1/5 — Se cierra *2013-03-30, version 2.0.0* Se cierra solo nada mas poner el servidor. ### 1/5 — Junk *2013-02-04, version 2.0.0* Force closes on iPad 4 on app startup. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work. *2012-08-30, version 2.0.0* I try to connect to an iTunes library, and it just crashes. Not a whole lot more to say than that. ### 1/5 — Kein forked-daap *2012-08-01, version 2.0.0* So ist der für mich nutzlos ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — just what I was looking for *2013-05-23, version 2.0.0* simple, works just what I was looking for ### 5/5 — Simple but quick *2012-12-30, version 2.0.0* It works perfectly as FireFly client! ### 5/5 — Great *2012-09-12, version 2.0.0* Works really well, and very simple too. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2012-02-24, version 2.0.0* Usefully ### 5/5 — Top *2012-02-18, version 2.0.0* Mit Firefly ist es ein optimales Zusammenspiel. Nutze dabei LG NAS Multimediaspeicher. ### 5/5 — Works well *2012-02-13, version 2.0.0* Works fine with my mt-daapd server on my home wireless network. It plays in the background as you run other apps. Can only browse by genre then artist then album then song, so if you know the artist or album or song but not the genre then you have to do some browsing to find what you want. But what do you want for free? ### 5/5 — Works great! *2011-12-02, version 2.0.0* Using it with FreeNAS and it finds everything and does run in the background. No complaints - especially for the price! ### 5/5 — Simple Enough *2011-12-02* Works well, nothing fancy. Would be nice for it to work on the background. ### 5/5 — Works well and is free *2011-12-01, version 2.0.0* I have two NAS servers with built in itune servers. I paid for the audario app, thinking that paid app must be better. But this freeapp handled both servers beautifully, and audario frooze up on one the servers. The only cons of free simple daap client is it does not allow the use of password. But who cares if my songs are not secured. ### 5/5 — Excellent client!! *2011-11-04, version 2.0.0* Worked like charm !!
