Playlist needs work

It seems there's no batch add to playlist, I have to click one song at a time.
If want to add all songs in a Dropbox folder, I have to do two clicks for each song, which is impossible given the number of songs in the folder. The UI also needs work, a good developer should get some good art styles as well. Functional and beautiful are both important

Great app! No background refresh

I can't remember the exact flow of setting this up but I swear it just scans entire drive of drop box. I canceled right away because I have 3tb of files in there.

Here's what's wrong with this app. It doesn't have background app refresh to download so you can't shut your screen off and it needs to be in focus. I accidentally downloaded 72 gigabytes of my favorite artists folder by folder and kept my phone on overnight. I'm not going to redo all my folders again with auto download off. You can't even go to another app while it's downloading the file or meta data.

Once you have the songs downloaded the app is great and beats other dropbox music player apps I tried.

Thank you for a 5 star review!

Great player for music on your Dropbox account

What great application to play the music files you have in your Dropbox. Like the other reviewer said: itโ€™s important that you can scan just a specific folder (with sub folders) otherwise it would be to long to scan your whole Dropbox account. You can select by artist, album, songs and you can create your own playlist. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Response from developer

Thank you for your 5 star review!

Really terrible!

Does not organize music by album.
Does not display cover art.
Does not bookmark.
Unstable performance.
Organizes songs alphabetically, which means in most cases you will have a list of album selection numbers (i.e., "01 โ€“ 02 โ€“ 03," etc.)

Not keen on 10,000 song limit

Dropbox scanning was incredibly fast ... Until I hit this ridiculous limit. Come on. The only reason I need to access my music from Dropbox is because my library is too big to download to my iPad.
