This app is what I've been waiting for, for years... I have been using VLC and other music apps that don't collect data and are preferably open source. This is it. This has THE potential to be the #1 local music player in the App Store with one of the cleanest looking user interfaces I've seen. However, there are a few glaring issues keep me from fully switching over. Keeping in mind the app's early development, here are a few positives and negatives. Positives: - Open-source 🙏 - Supports MP3, FLAC, OPUS (buggy) & WAV. - Does not collect data or use telemetry. - Very nice UI (not so good UX). - Allows users to import a custom GraphicEQ. - Importing local music is easy and allows users to import songs from different folder locations. - iCloud integration (not useful personally but a pro nonetheless). Negatives: - Adding/Appending to Queue is barely barely implemented and quite rudimentary. - OPUS files display blank metadata. - The option "Remove from library only" off by default. An unsuspecting user may unintentionally delete all of their local music files. - When importing large numbers of music files (~2,000+) the app crashes. Although this may be due to the files app itself. - Does not allow M3U/M3U8 playlist importing or exporting. - Created playlists are only available in JSON format. Note to the Lead Developer (clquwu): Overall this is a wonderful app and I have been following its development closely. I'd like to make a kind suggestion that the queue, playlists and importing be prioritized as those are the only issues preventing my full switch over. In time of course. Thank you for taking initiative and creating something like this for little to nothing in your valuable time on this earth. 🙂

Great app!! I liked everything at the beginning, everything is comfortable and pleasant. But I've encountered a problem, now, when I go in, the first ten seconds everything is fine, and then everything just freezes. The app doesn't respond to touch or anything I'm very very sad. P.S. (English is not my first language, translated through a translator)

I love the app and the look of it. Using this app along with others to create my music library is putting me back in the days of LimeWire and ripping CD’s and I dig it. The ONLY thing I would ask for is a volume slider in app, I don’t know. Just cause 🤷🏻‍♂️ for people wanting to edit metadata, you should use Evertag, pretty simple to use and find with just a search 👀 Love the app and I appreciate it and its creators existence. Can’t wait to see if and what it develops into!
