ā About this app This app is a music player that can play and manage songs registered from local music library or audio files in the 'Files' app. This app uses a unique system called 'Badge system', which allows you to easily manage or oparate songs in playlists on the app (In this app, registered songs are also referred to as 'badges') with one tap/drag and drop. In addition to intuitive operation, there are also plenty of functions that allow you to enjoy visually and more modulated music, such as changing the UI, setting effects, and audio spectrum! ā Main features ā¼ Playing music Registered songs and audio files can be played on the in-app music player. Along with the familiar UI of the music player, you can use AirPlay to specify the audio output destination, manage lyrics, effect functions, and point functions. ā¼ Badge system 'Badge system' consists of three layers: playlists, badge groups, and badges. It allows you to manage your songs with intuitive touch operations. This system treats songs with artwork as badges, allowing for more visual management. ā¼ Setting a playlist background image You can set a background image for playlists. It makes management easier to understand visually. The background image is also displayed on the music player, and the matching image is sure to liven up the atmosphere! ā¼ Lyric settings When you register a song in local music library to the app, these song's registered lyrics are automatically loaded and can be checked and edited with one tap. *Edited lyrics data will be deleted when a badge group or a playlist is deleted. ā¼ Effect settings Effects can be set and saved for each badge. The songs you always listen to may change to a more dynamic sound. *Effect settings data set on badges will be deleted when a badge group or a playlist is deleted. ā¼ Point settings This function allows you to register a specified playback time and start playback from there at any time with one tap. You can listen to phrases that interest you over and over again, or use them for listening in language learning. You can also easily change the registered time to a different time, allowing for more flexible use. *Added point data will be deleted when a badge group or a playlist is deleted. ā¼ Player screen settings You can choose from two ways to display songs: 'List' or 'Carousel'. You can also choose between two types of player operation UI: 'Oblique' or 'Common'. Enjoy music even more with your favorite combination! ā¼ Audio spectrum The audio spectrum works according to the music you are listening to. You can choose from a large number of audio spectrum, and set color settings with gradation, allowing you to arrange the music player screen to your liking! Enjoy your music data to the fullest! ā Precautions We can NOT compensate for any financial or physical damage caused by using this app. Lyrics/effect/point data set for each badge will be deleted when the badge group or playlist containing it is deleted. Once you turn on permissions to access music media, don't turn them off. Data within the app may be lost. If you feel unwell while listening to music using the app, please stop using it immediately. When adding badges from 'Files', the corresponding extensions are .wav .m4a .mp3. ā Sample image credit Dynamic Wang, Luiz Rogerio Nunes, Artem Artemov, Bombay Smackers, Marco Bianchetti, Zineb Mezidi, Pramod Tiwari, Elise Wilcox (from Unsplash) ā Contacts If you have any concerns or requests for additional functionality when using this app, please feel free to contact us.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ThinMP at none against iSoong's shown. iSoong's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
