User Reviews

Sweet MIDI Player is praised as a durable, feature-rich MIDI player with strong sound quality and easy playback, plus robust file management and solid external-device support. Common drawbacks center on licensing across devices, confusing IAPs and purchase restoration, a dated UI with hidden controls, and several feature gaps around soundfonts and multi-soundfont loading. Overall, it remains a reliable choice for managing large MIDI collections and teaching or performing with hardware synths, but users should expect some setup quirks and licensing friction.
Pros
  • Reliable, long-standing MIDI player with years of positive use
  • Excellent sound quality and rich playback controls, including tempo/velocity scaling and slow-down
  • Flexible file management with easy import and the ability to use your own soundfonts
  • Strong compatibility with external hardware synths and MIDI DAWs (e.g., MIDI clock with Logic Pro)
  • Good for teaching and live use due to ease of use and practical features
Cons
  • License and purchase handling across devices is confusing: Mac vs iOS are separate apps and purchases are not always transferable
  • Restoring purchases across devices or via Family Sharing can be problematic
  • Settings and advanced options can be hard to find; the UI feels outdated and discovery is poor
  • Soundfont handling is limited (e.g., cannot load multiple soundfonts at once) and overall soundfont quality can vary
  • Pricing and IAP clarity sometimes feels opaque, with reports of high upfront costs for full features and 'what you get' not clearly explained

i use this app all the time, it’s probably the best midi player for me on my iphone. i want to use it on my mac, but the problem is i cannot redownload this on my mac because the mac version is listed as a separate app than the ios version. so, if i wanted to use this on my mac id have to pay again to use it. which, i am not going to be doing. i use the trail version of this from the website instead on my mac. it’s annoying that i can’t hear the last quarter of a song just because the mac version is separate from the ios version.

The App is still the best Midi Player for IOS. I just hope that the Devs can still upgrade the app, such as midi editing (program changes in GM2, GS, and XG), control changes such as velocity changes (not just volume), and a lot more. Please Devs im still patiently waiting for this updates. Thank You!
