nPlayer Reviews

The reviews sold me so I paid $5 and I have to say this is either a Swiss Army knife or a Rubik’s cube depending on what you are looking for. I am an audiophile more than a videophile purchasing for the DLNA capability streaming from a music server. If you care about album and artist information nPlayer is NOT for you. Album and artist information is non existent in nPlayer . I sent an email asking if there is a way to enable album and artist information in nPlayer and in screen (Airplay) and no response. Seems like a no brainer to me.

If all you care about is song title, this is nPlayer for you. The configuration options are over the top, but you can absolutely get lost navigating nPlayer . Look at 8player or mconnect if you are an audiophile looking for DLNA functionality. Hopefully, they can add artist and album information functionality and build some additional structure around configuration as it really is a solid player with some interesting playback options. Never crashes. Just plays!

This is the best audio & video player app I’ve ever used. But the last update is heating up my iPhone 7 Plus extremely. Also draining the battery super fast. At first I thought IOS 13 is causing the issue. But the issue still exists after updating to IOS 14. Plz fix the issue. Otherwise nPlayer is becoming harmful for iPhone battery.

This feels like kind of a low bar, but this is the only app I could find capable of adding a music folder from local storage, selecting all files at once to place in a playlist, and shuffling the playback of that playlist. Kind of mind-boggling that that’s hard to find. I was happy to pay for the no-ads upgrade. You can even sort the playlists into folders, which is a nice touch.

If I can make two suggestions: it would be nice to be able to point to the files without duplicating them (though I think that may just be a limitation of iOS) and I’d love to be able to sort any music I add by artist and album in addition to by playlist or folder. I’m also not entirely confident the playlist deleted from storage properly when I tried to do so in nPlayer , as the music was able to continue playing in the player. I hope it’s just a delayed, temporary-cache-type effect, as it would be a real problem for me over time if they built up in the background (I want to rotate music on and off the device).

The seconds and minutes of a video in this player a bit off, especially in when going back by few seconds, it goes back more than that, and same with going forward.

First I'd like to say nPlayer is more accessible than it was the last time I downloaded it lol. I'm using this with VOiceover. However, I do notice that when I play a YT video with sound boost and things enabled, it buffers. I'm sure it isn't my internet, because I have nice fast internet. Also, I've noticed the video will stop playing when I leave nPlayer . Otherwise, love this player. I love how I can boost the sound, and use preamp and the equalizer. Makes things sound so much clearer. I haven't tried downloading anything as of yet. Not really sure what I have to do to download. Glad I bought nPlayer.

A good app, all that's missing is a sleep timer for audio files and maybe an audio car mode with bigger buttons because I use nPlayer for audiobooks. Pro tip, click on the album cover of the mini audio tab to open full screen audio option with variable play speed

Absolutely love nPlayer. The video player UX is insanely well thought out. I miss not having these controls on my other video apps. Also, there are a ton of options for cloud storage services.

This is by far the most capable and stable iOS media player I've ever used. The only feature I really wish to have here is support for Replaygain tags. Other apps support it, but their interfaces are not nearly so polished as EmPlayer.

love nPlayer, specially is network sharing functions, i can view my video on laptop via LAN without to copy to iphone. and it has browsers too)), i can download video on internet to my phone! and mores other than i can say!

This lets me download files that iTunes doesn't support to the iPad, great for long flights. The extensive codec support is essential. Unfortunately there are still places where they use simplified Chinese when the device is in Traditional Chinese, but I can live with it.

The best playback app on ios i’ve used.

one feedback:
when it’s switched from menu bar to slide menu and goes to “browser” tab, it’s hard for me to go to other tabs. I don’t know if it’s a special case for me.

This is the one to get. Forget worrying about storage space. If you have a popular cloud storage program, just store your stuff there and access it here by downloading when you need it or stream it.

Returning to previous folder has been a disaster since I upgraded to the newest version and selecting multiple folders keeps coming up even when I didn’t do anything .

Others either don’t play tracks without issues or only allow you to access remote content. This is literally the only working media player. 0 issues aside from an edgy UI

Never written a review for any app,,,was having trouble with new tv,,,Sony 65, and airplay so I thought I would give nPlayer a try,,,only had couple of hours and it’s great, no more problems casting movies from iPad Air 4 to tv, am using chromecast from app to tv...picture outstanding as well as sound,,,using ext hdd with iPad, buy it...it really is good...

It’s a good app.. the reason I dislike it though is because when screen goes black or locks . The music will no longer play. That makes me frustrated and dislike it. I might have to get another music app because of that. I have an iPhone XS. My other music apps I have installed have no problem playing with the screen locked.

I have tried them all and there are always a few features lacking with other players. This one ticks all the boxes for me. Plays any file, can play selections in random order, adjustable post processing, great scaling including pinch to zoom... Features way to numerous to mention in a short review. I got the paid version and very happy with it. No glitches or hang ups so far on iPad pro. Keep up the good work...

I have an extensive collection of music on a network storage drive. I looked and looked for a simple player that would access and play the media on my NAS. This one does it so well that I actually paid for it rather than just using the free (ad supported) version. If you have media on a network accessible drive, this is nPlayer you should try. Grab the Lite version. Try it out and if you like it as much as I do, pay for the upgrade.

I love nPlayer, I cant say enough good things a out it. Its command central on my Ipad for all media. I have a flawless and direct stream to my cloud server as well as all my local content. The UI is straight forward easy to navigate with large fonts, no its not racy but boy it gets the job done! Well done guys!

Special tip, this is one of the few apps that work seamlessly with lighting memory sticks, plug it in and you will see it appear right in the menu like any other media folder. No need for special apps, so basically I have a 128gb Ipad now

The top section of the screen turns black on the media screen just before playing after the latest update.
