Ulearn Player Reviews

I’m not sure why the apps description is in English in UlearnPlayer Store while the photos have Chinese and inside UlearnPlayer there is a mixture of the 2. Except for the places where it matters settings. Either make it all in Chinese or make clear the lack of English so that people who can’t read Chinese don’t waste their time. While hopefully not the intent it comes off like a means to exploit the user either for data or possibly money since the pop ups are only in Chinese and makes it impossible to know what option to select. For all I know I’m being asked to authorize a purchase or to send personal data either way please translate UlearnPlayer or make clear what langue UlearnPlayer uses

Except for a few words in English everything is in Chinese. Can’t determine how to use app.

good app

I don't usually write user reviews for apps, but I felt compelled to write one for ulearn player, simply because it is hands-down the best app I have ever used, especially for its price-tag (free when I downloaded it).
I stumbled upon ulearn player when I was searching for a cheap and lightweight app that plays mkv video files since I had some I wanted to watch on the go. At that time, the featured review was an 1-star one that complained that the user interface is all in Chinese (which erks me, who, as a bilingual, do not think that is a problem deserving an 1-star: just learn a few words of one of the most widely spoken language or just tap the menu to see what it does! That's how children who can't read learn to use apps). I don't know if UlearnPlayer was changed since that review, as most of the user-interface is in English (or rather understandable Chinglish), but I am glad that I gave UlearnPlayer a try.
The ulearn player plays mkv files seaminglessly (while support audio switching in multi-audio files). In addition, it supports other formats I have tried, including video ones (mp4), audio ones (mp3, mp4a) and pictures (png). Please refer to the developer's description for all the supported file formats, which is rather comprehensive. To load a file onto UlearnPlayer , simply connect the device to PC with iTunes. Personally, I felt the interface was intuitive. UlearnPlayer detects different gestures (left/right swipe: go back/forward a few seconds, swipe up/down on the left side of screen: increase/decrease screen brightness, swipe up/down on the right side of screen: increase/decrease volume). Tapping the video while playing reveals several icons: the lock icon (which when active, prevent the aforementioned swiping gestures), the two-arrow icon (cycles playback from play next file to repeat current file), the elipse icon (change audio or load subtitle) and then picture icon (screenshot function). Other icons of note include an icon to change playback speed and an icon to rotate screen within UlearnPlayer . I am impressed with all the available functionalities of a free app.
UlearnPlayer is supported by ads, which may appear before the start of a video. Fortunately, I never had an app interrupting a playing video (take note, YouTube!). The ads are sometimes annoying, as they are often for misleading freemium games and/or they may have small close buttons that take multiple trial taps to go away. I do not hold this against the developer as he/she most likely does not have a say on what ads are displayed. The ads could be removed for $2.99, which I did choose to pay, not because the ads are intolerable, but more because I wanted to support the developer. For another $2.99, you can choose to encrypt the files loaded to UlearnPlayer and require a password to access them, which could be useful for some users.
Of course, no app is perfect. There are some minor issues that I have noticed. The first one is that UlearnPlayer does not detect internal subtitles within the mkv files so currently you must load a separate subtitle file for the player to display the subtitles. The other issue is that during some situations (the most replicable one is when I connect to my car's BlueTooth audio speaker), UlearnPlayer would play audio from multiple files at the same time such that the sounds overlap (it could be solved by stopping and restarting the playback). Other than these two issues, ulearn player is perfect for my needs.
