Review summary

CloudPlayer™ Platinum is highly praised for its intuitive interface, seamless integration with cloud storage services like OneDrive and Dropbox, and strong organizational features for music libraries. Users appreciate its support for high-res audio and offline play. However, the app suffers from a lack of updates in recent years leading to bugs such as library scanning failures, playback crashes, and Google account connectivity blocks. Additionally, Android Auto support is seen as inadequate. Despite some issues, it remains a top choice for cloud-based music players for users with large personal libraries.

Pros

Excellent user interface and functionality for cloud music playback.
Reliable integration with cloud storage services like OneDrive and Dropbox.
Good music organization and metadata editing capabilities.
Supports high-resolution audio playback and streaming from cloud storage.
Offline play option available to save cellular data usage.

Cons

App hasn't been updated in several years leading to increasing bugs and issues.
Problems with cloud scanning and updating music library causing missing or no song content.
Google blocking access due to 2FA or app compliance issues, limiting cloud connectivity.
Limited or poor Android Auto functionality, making navigation through playlists and music cumbersome.
Frequent crashes or playback stopping unexpectedly on various devices and Android versions.

2025-01-09	St*****	Best Cloud Player...it's kind of odd as this app hasn't had an update in going on three years however it's no one else is close to the UI and functionality. Works flawlessly with one drive. You edit metadata. Playback is flawless on cellular and on Wifi. Organization is also great! I really have no complaints.

2025-01-04	A *****	Update: Still a great UI. However, it hasn't been updated since 2022, and it is increasingly buggy. Issues: Had to give up having it scan local files. The database will not update with new files. Long songs will randomly cut out with no sound but the progress bar still showing the file as playing. If it cuts out once, it cuts out every time at the exact same moment in the song. I've also noticed that the database will either overwrite some ID tags in the songs or not read those I know are there.

2024-11-20	Br*****	This used to be the best music player but recently Google has blocked it something to do with 2FA. Such a shame I really hope one day they sort it out as it used to be really good. That said it doesn't connect to One Drive so I have moved a lot of music to there. However I don't want to pay for extra storage in both places.

2024-09-12	Pe*****	Update: It's gradually gotten less reliable at scanning my library on Dropbox. It's still okay, but isn't my go to anymore. There are better sounding apps with better streaming support. Original review - For the longest time I've clung to phones with expandable memory. I finally gave in and got a phone without an microSD slot. CloudPlayer is the answer to my prayers. It lets me play my huge music library on my Dropbox in a full featured music player. Absolutely great.

2024-01-19	Jo*****	Solid Player, but glaring weaknesses. The good is that the player works fine, and sinks well with my Google Drive account, picks up new songs add and they're very easily. The inability to export playlists is ridiculous. I'd like to send a few playlists to my Garmin watch, but instead I have to rebuild them manually. Android Auto functionality isn't great - have to hunt for my playlists, then scrolling thru them is limited, so I've had to rename the ones I use the most to begin with "1. Xxx"

2023-11-21	Me*****	I've had this app from way back. And it's never given me an issue, even with updates it stays true to its form. Syncs eith cloud storage. And there's all sorts of settings to configure to your liking, there's offline play to save data, there's album art covers, different colum and row configuration. You can change and alter meta data , it's an absolute find..

2022-10-25	Ri*****	Works great - love the options to stream the music I own and not be constantly barraged with Amazon's sales pitch and glitchy app. 9/3/22 - app no longer opens on Android 7 tablet, still works on Android 9 phone. Have submitted bug reports and contacted developer with no response. Really love this app, hate to see it die. I might even buy a new tablet just to use this app. 10/24/22 -support helped install a previous version until the bug can be fixed in 1.8.6. Inching back toward 5 stars.

2022-05-15	Al*****	Pretty simple app for what it's designed for and that's what makes it so great. The app isn't like spotify at all, it's basically a player for music you have downloaded (I use it for playing music off Google drive). And it's really good at it's job, not to mention that the layout is amazingly simple and not a pain like other players. No ads, and even though I don't like admiting the 8 dollars is 100% worth it compared to having to manually swipe through each song in Google drive.10/10

2022-02-25	Le*****	Started well, but now I get the following message from Google when trying to connect to the cloud storage (which was the whole point to purchase the app): This app is blocked. And then it says it tried to access sensitive information from my Google account. I do not need an app that simply plays lical files, but rather valued the ability to play directly from the cloud or download selected music...

2021-10-25	Ry*****	This is a great app. I have found it to be the best replacement for the old, demolished Google Play Music app. I use it with OneDrive, and it works well. I have a large, robust largely classical music library. The integration with Google Home devices and chromecasts is better than YouTube music. I have had some minor issues with the way I've tagged music files resulting in duplicate albums showing up, but that can be fixed. I'm going to give it 4 stars out of 5 because there needs to be better integration of this service to other platforms like the web and wear OS.
