I like Apple Musics player but Vox is just so much better to navigate and better coverflow on artwork. UPDATE: The latest update unfortunately falls into a problem with small iPhones on the iPhone mini 12 they have fixed the layout of the album artwork fitting the screen correctly for years but now since the Dropbox feature the downward arrow which is top left covers over the time display making it impossible to use to go back or go through playlists it’s like the extra tab of that Dropbox has made the screen display worse. It would be better to put any streaming or save clouds in a separate one tab main screen like in library or playlist display as now it’s unfortunately broken. The only thing it has missing apart from that is the song transition cross fade feature like Apple Music uses to select as that’s good to use with playlists. ### 3/5 — Gefangen *2026-07-07* Seit neuestem sind bei mir die Symbole für Suchen oder zurück, ganz oben in der Leiste gefangen, wo man nichts anklicken kann ### 3/5 — Great except the layout. *2026-07-01, version 2.20* UPDATE: The latest update unfortunately falls into a problem with small iPhones on the iPhone mini 12 they have fixed the layout of the album artwork fitting the screen correctly for years but now since the Dropbox feature the downward arrow which is top left covers over the time display making it impossible to use to go back or go through playlists it’s like the extra tab of that Dropbox has made the screen display worse.

The only thing it has missing apart from that is the song transition cross fade feature like Apple Music uses to select as that’s good to use with playlists. ### 3/5 — Bug on ui *2026-07-01, version 2.20* There is a bug on ui of older iPhones without dynamic island makes you cant reach search bar and options of changing library settings because they moved behind battery icon and clock, pls fix it asap, best regards💛 ### 1/5 — Issue with the last update *2026-06-30, version 2.20* Hello, I updated to the last version some minuted ago, there is some issue cause I can’t access no more the settings menu. Search button and menu button are appearing in the top notch area near and above the wifi icon and the battery icon and they can’t be used, commands touch doesn’t works in this area. iPhone 14 Pro. ### 1/5 — Please fix the app *2026-06-28, version 2.18* The app is super buggy, and then one day, all my SoundCloud playlists disappeared ### 1/5 — Won’t let me by premium *2026-06-25, version 2.18* Please let me buy premium it freezes when i try to ### 2/5 — UI is terrible *2026-06-22, version 2.18* I assumed that when i tapped to display library via albums, that it would sort by albums, not artist, because it said album, using the word that means album, album. Learn UI design ffs ### 4/5 — Its ok but u gotta get used to it *2026-06-08, version 2.18* Its not bad, does everything i need but I constantly have to close the app to make a song play and its always the same thing and having to restart the app for a song gets annoying ### 3/5 — Good, but has a crucial flaw. *2026-05-27* The player itself is very good, but why can't I select custom folder paths as my main music library? Foobar iOS does this. It should be mandatory. ### 3/5 — YouTube playback *2026-05-24, version 2.18* Fix YouTube playback please ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-05-22, version 2.18* Guys from Ukraine, you’ve become greedy. I’m trying to log into my account to unlock the radio I purchased, and I get the error: “This Connection Is Not Private. This website may be impersonating to steal your personal or financial information.” What used to be a legendary app is now barely known because the developers wanted too much money. Instead of a one-time purchase, you decided to charge absurd subscription fees just to use the equalizer, because nobody needs your buggy and inconvenient cloud service. The only thing that could save your project is offering full functionality with a one-time purchase, while keeping the cloud optional. And if you truly care so much about Ukraine, you could make the app completely free for the Ukrainian App Store during these difficult times for Ukrainians. People would support you with donations anyway. Otherwise, your project is doomed to bankruptcy. ### 2/5 — Does not keep track of progress in a song *2026-05-08, version 2.18* I tried to listen to some mp3 audiobook files either this app. The tracks are often long- 25 minutes or more. If I pause it mid track, then come back to it some time later, it restarts the track at 00:00. Am I missing something? That’s a deal-breaker for me. ### 3/5 — UI kinda ruins it *2026-05-01, version 2.18* PLEASE take some inspiration from evermusic with the UI and tagging capabilities. Maybe add some LRC support too. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — re: still greedy *2026-09-06, version 2.22* i left an extensive review of why it was actually so dumb that this company wants to paywall playing music from a DIFFERENT app they don't have any rights to in the first place, but for some reason it's gone..? anyways, my point still stands... WHY would anyone pay for this mostly broken app just to connect to soundcloud if they could just use that money to sub to soundcloud premium instead..? hey devs, make it make sense? you do not own soundcloud so why are you paywalling it hm? ### 1/5 — Already dysfunctional now with more paywalls *2026-07-12, version 2.22* I’ve been using this app for ages, despite it having severe optimization problems and constant crashes just so I can utilize the SoundCloud feature Years of dealing with unfettered garbage just for the only feature I actually enjoyed to get paywalled while the app is still broken This isn’t going to make me pay, I am just simply going to move on to something that actually works and is free (like the actual SoundCloud app, shocker) ### 1/5 — UI Unusable On Latest iOS *2026-07-10, version 2.20* Menu options and top controls are overlapped by the time/battery/signal row making navigating this app impossible. ### 1/5 — Layout of the app *2026-07-09, version 2.20* The layout of the UI is overlapping with my notification rubbon which makes it impossible to access any setting! This has been an issue for the past few days and start to become annoying to say the least. ### 1/5 — The search button doesn’t work *2026-07-08, version 2.20* The search button doesn’t work ### 1/5 — latest update makes the app unusable *2026-07-06, version 2.20* as of the new update, the app’s search and settings icons are hidden behind the iphone’s battery and clock icons and therefore inaccessible. please fix this asap. ### 1/5 — new update broke ui *2026-07-06, version 2.20* been using the app for years. app was functional before new update. now there’s a major ui bug where i can’t use the search bar or any other icons on the top part of the app anymore since it sits behind the very top of my phone screen where the battery icon is. hope they fix this soon ### 1/5 — Fix it. *2026-07-06, version 2.20* Newest update literally completely has made the app unusable on iphones. The upper most buttons are nearly impossible to press so navigation is impossible. Update or will have to delete the app ### 1/5 — New Update Broke the App *2026-07-06, version 2.20* Cannot even use the app, since latest app update. App is broken on IOS 26.5.2. Unbelievable this is a paid app. ### 1/5 — The latest update has ruined some things 🙁 *2026-07-02, version 2.20* running into this issue were the Vox Music Player App’s search bar and top portion is for some reason clashing with the iOS’s top icons and Dynamic Island at the top of the screen. It just started doing it this morning. I shut off my phone and rebooted it to see if that would fix it, but no luck. Worse, the devs don’t have any available updates for it, and I don’t wanna delete the app and redownload because I’ll lose the data I have on it, and that would mean having to put hundreds of songs that I’ve uploaded to it all over again. I even offloaded the app and redownloaded it, and even that didn’t work. What really sucks is that the button to swipe down from the top left to access the app’s setting is up so high on the screen, my swipe doesn’t even register. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — new update broke ui [fixed] *2026-07-13, version 2.22* great app, would definitely recommend for playing music files ### 5/5 — Layout issue Fixed! *2026-07-12, version 2.22* Was a weird issue where half the functionality of the app was inaccessible due to a bad layout glitch where the setting and search bar were so high up the UI that you couldn’t even tap it. Well, happy to report that the latest update has thankfully fixed this. So now the app is back to normal. 👍 Vox is my all-time favorite music app and I’m glad to see that the devs still keep the app stable and fresh with new updates and such. Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — thanks for fixing the search issue quickly *2026-07-12, version 2.22* you got it fixed! thank you! amazing app. ### 5/5 — Perfeito *2026-07-11* Sem dúvida o melhor player MP3 free para iOS. Parabéns aos desenvolvedores. App simples prático bonito leve. Perfeito. ### 5/5 — New Update is Horrible!!!! *2026-07-04, version 2.20* Can’t even use the app due to the search bar being located behind the battery icon now. I’ve used this app daily for years and now I’m thinking of deleting it. This new update is HORRIBLE!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-05-16, version 2.18* Best player for my collection of underground old school house music, cheap and fluid across devices, cool radio player, and mix cloud integration, just needs voice integration with Siri and Alexa ### 5/5 — Quasi perfetta *2025-12-24, version 2.18* Per chi come me non è Interessato a servizi di streaming, radio , cloud ecc, la versione free è più che sufficiente. Apro app e trovo subito i miei album, senza pubblicità, senza dover vedere gli abbonamenti Apple Music o altro. Il player è ben fatto, ovviamente ci sono diverse cose che andrebbero migliorate. Mi raccomando cari sviluppatori, continuate a tenere ben separati i servizi a pagamento con la libreria personale sul telefono. No pubblicità, non copiate le l’interfaccia di Musica di Apple o Spotify o altro. Bravissimi ### 5/5 — Good app *2025-10-31, version 2.17* Good app, but please, remove that flag from the icon. The UA theme is old, no one is interested anymore ### 5/5 — Great. Almost perfect. *2025-07-31, version 2.14* I like the app and all the functions, just wish i could have a search function that searches my music only or all music, the way qobuz and apple music has it. ### 5/5 — cool *2025-07-11, version 2.12* i am lovin it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
