Review summary

Lock Screen Music Player is appreciated for its attractive and functional lock screen music controls, including album art and gesture support, filling gaps left by native Android features. However, multiple users report glitches such as the player reappearing after unlocking, inconsistent app compatibility, and interface limitations like button placement and lack of landscape mode. While it generally improves media control for apps like Spotify and audiobooks, enhancements in stability, usability, and clearer upgrade options would improve the overall experience.

Pros

Provides a visually appealing lock screen music player with album artwork display.
Offers easy to use and effective music controls on the lock screen.
Supports gesture and sensor control modes for convenient music playback without unlocking the phone.
Improves usability for music and audiobook apps that lack native lock screen controls.
Customizable skins and themes enhance user experience.

Cons

Some users experienced buggy or inconsistent behavior, especially regarding the lock screen appearing after unlocking the phone or needing to swipe repeatedly.
The app does not always integrate well with all music apps (e.g., SoundCloud, YouTube Music) causing occasional glitches or missing features like progress bars.
Inability to directly unlock the device via face or fingerprint recognition without dismissing the widget.
Lack of customizable placement for control buttons and lack of landscape/rotation support limits usability on larger or differently oriented screens.
The upgrade options can be confusing, and some features like lyrics syncing or more skin options are lacking or problematic.

2024-12-25	Al*****	My phone doesn't naturally display Spotify songs on the lockscreen, so this was a perfect solution. Very nice display and easy to use controls

2024-07-23	St*****	This is exactly what I was looking for. Simple, great and easy to use. I tried another one that changed my lock screen and home screen and sort of took over my phone. This one goes over my lock screen (sort of as a cover for the lock screen) and just shows the album artwork and song controls. Love it.

2024-07-12	S1*****	This was exactly what I was looking for. Perfect for audiobook apps lacking media control functions on the lockscreen. I particularly like having my book cover displayed for wallpaper, very nice! Is there anyway this can be used on my home screen too or even a floating widget, that would be epic. Great job overall 👍 OK so I've answered my own questions here and sorry bt I'll have to renege a couple stars I haven't changed my mind its still a great app bt the lyric view has really bad sync

2024-05-01	Al*****	Absolutely perfect. I used Spotify a lot, and having this on my lcok screen is so much better than the primitive android media player.

2023-08-30	Lu*****	Hi I'm not a bot so trust me when I say this: this app is truly one of a kind. It displays the song cover on your lockscreen in which you can control total playback over your music. It even has advanced sensor mode that let's you skip/play/pause music without even turning on your phone! I don't ever really leave reviews for anything, but these developers deserve more love. SHOW THEM SOME LOVE

2023-08-12	Зд*****	Nice app! The app doesn't work with USB DAC/Amplifier attached to my smartphone. USB Audio Player Pro / Android 13 / One UI 5.1 Also please, move the control interface (play/pause and next/previous buttons) at the bottom of the screen (Skin 7) so to be easier for one hand interaction (for big screen phones). It would be nice if there was an option to hide swipe up indicator for cleaner and more aesthetic look. Thank you!
