Ratings and reviews

This app is beyond amazing. The sleek interface and the overall feel of the app make it a 5-star experience. However, I was hoping to have Chromecast support, which was kind of disappointing due to the fact that it's a video player. Furthermore, I would like to request an option for subjective reasons to add .torrent support to play custom-encoded files such as MKV. Please and thank you.

One of the best and simple video players out there for Android. Beautifully designed with Material You. Packed with features, from swipe gestures for volume and brightness, to network playback of any MP4 or HLS video URL, to 200% volume boost. It even supports subtitles! It's like the YouTube app, except for local videos. A big plus is that it's free and open source. Samsung's video player has nothing on Next Player!
