Ratings and reviews

Shuffle feature is GREAT. Doesn't play the same 30 songs over and over, as almost every player I've found does. UI sucks horribly, frequent error messages cover up the control buttons and you have to wait for the error to clear itself to use them again. Had to disable the notification bar control, because when I close an app I want the freaking app to close without going through extra steps. It can be buggy but it'll be great if they fix/update/improve.

Android 9 installation works fine. No documentation anywhere, you must search FAQs or stumble around. Only problem I have is with interruption of a song. If I pause on the phone (or turn off the car), I can't resume at the beginning of the same song. Pressing the < button sends me not to the beginning of this song, but the last complete one played. Pressing the > button then resumes the random shuffle, and the interrupted song is lost. It would also be nice to be able to pause the shuffle, go to a favorite album or song(s), then resume without re-shuffling from zero.

So far seems to do exactly what I want and it says it will do. Allow me to pick local phone file/ folder locations, create or add song to internal app playlists (but not needed, local phone folders can act as 'playlists') and shuffle or non shuffle play those songs. UI is a bit clunky, but I'm totally fine with that so long as it all works. Also, so far seems no adverts. BONUS!
