Ratings and reviews

This is the best one out there, and much ahead of the others. The only problems I have are that it has an ad when you close a video, and all the other ads are completely fine with me, it's just this one type that worsens the experience. And the playlists should let you put your videos in whatever order you want, at this point, this should be an essential feature. As I said, MX Player is the most excellent available, however these two small changes would make it way better.

I am a long time user and it is without a doubt my #1 and has been for years. My only bother is that I used to be able to customize colors with all the theme settings and I love to give it my own look, my own custom vibe you know and now I just can't anymore. Functionally though it keeps getting better and better..., so keep up the awesome work. I just think that people (like me obviously 😅) love to be able to customize colors. Hope you will put the customization back in the settings.

My go to video player on android for years, but recently it just closes video randomly and goes back to folder view. It won't even remember position of the video when it does that. Cleared cache. Re-installed. Checked a bunch of settings. No luck. Today it even did the same thing of just going back to folder view when I was in the settings. The app is not crashing, just closing whatever I was doing and going back to the folder view. WTH.
