Ratings and reviews

A good app for playing music and podcasts. Another app that I used on my phone would refuse to play certain songs due to format; this Onkyo player plays all of them. It would be nice to be able to control music through the lock screen. Also, if a file is marked as podcast, it would be nice for the app to remember the point where you left off. I listen to a podcast and then pause it, close the app. When I reopen the app and resume playing the podcast it starts from the beginning.

This is app years ago was amazing back when I had a Galaxy S9. I bought a new phone with the latest android and 6gb ram, and now this app crashes constantly. I have auto sync checked and it appears that doesn't work as well as it used to. I have playlists saved from when I had the S9, and it'll play a few songs, crash, and when I go to play the song It Just Finished Playing, it crashes. I've reinstalled the app to no avail. I miss my S9, things just worked back then.

It's a great app and I hope to upgrade soon to get more out of the headphones and dac I use. However, it does make it challenging that I cannot control the music from the lock screen and some crashes when the widget does not update what song is playing. Good app, just needs some changes to make it more user friendly and possibly updates to work better.
