User Reviews

The app is lauded for authentic hi‑res playback, real‑time EQ, offline CarPlay use, and broad format support. Recurring downsides include paywalls/ads after purchase, DSD limitations on newer iPhones, language barriers in support, stability issues after updates, and several UI/UX glitches.
Pros
  • Exceptional hi‑res playback (192kHz/24‑bit) with real‑time EQ sliders to tweak sound.
  • Excellent sound quality with external DACs (e.g., Fiio K11, Chord Mojo) and flexible hardware integration.
  • Nice interface and reliable CarPlay compatibility; great offline playback.
  • Supports a wide range of formats (FLAC, DSF, etc.) and local library playback.
  • Often cited as the best option for hi‑res playback on iPhone.
Cons
  • Paywall and ads reintroduced after purchase; multiple users report needing to pay again or seeing ads.
  • DSD playback not working on newer iPhone models (USB-C/Thunderbolt) and native DSD support is incomplete.
  • Language barriers: support and documentation are largely in Japanese, with limited English assistance.
  • Stability issues after updates (crashes on launch, missing songs, Apple Music sync problems).
  • UI/UX glitches such as shuffle jumping, no auto-scroll to the currently playing track, and missing landscape mode.

The players deleted all the songs and won’t allow downloads. It makes it so you have to pay for their other app. What a scam! Update: Not a scam! The player works. The deletion of all the songs was because of the app settings being changed by what can only be presumed was because of the updating of the operating system on the device that has the app on it, without any notification of what changed.
