User reviews

Perfect MPC apps

I’ve been looking for this simple, comprehensive and beautiful apps for a long time. It’s fantastic to see the album covers of music currently playing. In addition to working with MPD, it also workd very well with Mopidy. Well done!

Response from developer

Thank you for your encouraging comments. We will continue to make yaMPC an even better app.

Janky, poorly designed

All networking operations appear to happen on the UI thread, which causes the app to freeze if it is in the middle of something. No indication that the app hasn't crashed. It often stays this way until some timeout has reached, which can be as long as 30 seconds (!!!). It will sometimes give you cryptic dialogs like "when there is a check mark, press <Queue" which makes me feel like I'm answering a riddle to cross a bridge or something. The app does at least function, though. But there aren't any better MPD clients on the app store.

App freezing

Please check why the app freezes each time it’s launched. The screen becomes unresponsive and no action is possible.
I have the latest iOS update and located in Switzerland.
Thanks

Response from developer

If yaMPC cannot connect to the Music Player Daemon (MPD), it should time out in 30 seconds and switch to the 'Players' screen so you can configure your MPD player. If yaMPC freezes, delete the app and reinstall it from the App Store. If reinstalling does not solve the problem, please contact us. Click "App Support" in the App Store or visit: openaudiolab.com/yampc/support/ and find the email address in the "Ask a question to:" section. Thank you!

Cannot really test

Costant prompts about buying full version if you try to search or browse for a song - so you can just play a random songs in free version. I'm not buying that.

Crasches....

Crashes often with Moode Audio based of Pi
