Ratings and reviews

Love the app. Genuinely a game changer in terms of simplicity, particularly letting us use file trees, which I've wanted for actual years. Came over from xplayer when I got tired of it futzing around and not fixing actual problems. But just a heads up - most recent update caused the player to stop marking finished videos with a completed blue bar. It'll still track partial watches, but finished ones no longer display that marker. Please fix it?

Horrible. Most videos will not immediately play and can display spinning circle. some will play after a long delay. some videos will not play. other players dot not have this problem

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Next Player is one of the best video players on Android. It has a clean UI, network video playback, playback speed, and a very useful Skip Silence feature. The only missing features are Audio Delay (Sync). Please add in a future update. This would make Next Player an even better video player. Thank you for this great app!
