Android What music player do you use?

[DarkFlare69]

I have been using BlackPlayer for years now and it's the best one I've been able to find. It does everything I need and doesn't have any major problems that I've noticed. I also like the equalizer that only affects the app. My old car had 6x9 speakers that had potential for amazing bass, but it was impossible to take advantage of without an equalizer and I didn't like having one always active. I don't need to use it anymore since I have 3 dedicated subs that provide enough bass without an equalizer, but it has served me very well for 2 years.

Soundcloud on PC and Android if that counts, couldn't live without it.

I also use BlackPlayer on Android and Foobar2000 on PC.

 

[Arecaidian Fox]

Rocket Player on Android for music (the only dedicated, standalone app I found that had the library and organization options I wanted). VLC pretty much everywhere else.

 

[SomeGamer]

Hi-Fi? PowerAmp (nice UI, personal favourite) or Neutron
Like Play Music? Shuttle or Vinyl
Something different? Vanilla Music

Ive been using gonemadmusicplayer (GMMP) for yonks - its never let me down..

 

[Shadowfied]

Poweramp for audio, MX Player for video.
I rarely play music files on Android these days though tbh, I primarily use Spotify, and if not, I stream it from my Plex server with the Plex app (have yet to try the Android version of Plexamp).

 

[DinohScene]

Pulsar.
Looks kinda similar to the whatever mediaplayer was built into Cyanogenmod which I liked at the time.

Tbf, I don't care to much about phones.
Most of the music I listen to is either on me laptop or in games or on me car's radio.

After careful consideration, watching the video below, and confirming some stuff with @Sono, I think I'm gonna be buying a 2019 iPod Touch. Apparently Apple's ecosystem is pretty good with backups and supporting legacy hardware, so this seems to be the way to go.

Honestly, that's also a nice choice and DankPods is really entertaining to watch so win-win.

i used to use sony walkman (app), but the app broke on android 10, i could play most recently played and most recently added, but whenever i tried going into albums or folders it outright crashed, now i simply dont listen to music outside of home, if you are on android 6 through 9 i definitely reccomend it though (you cant download it from google play, but the apk is online)

did not expect to find another dankpods fan, im also considering buying an ipod but i want a 5th gen to flashmod and do the extended battery thing

FiiO X1-II (X1 gen 2) and I can't say I really recommend it... Even with the latest 1.72 firmware, it's sluggish as fuck to navigate, the EQ settings are "meh", the EQ settings don't do squat for bluetooth headphones, and the battery life is trash. I really wanted to like it, but I just can't recommend it. Now I use a 4th-gen iPod Classic with a 128GB SD card installed, a new battery, and Rockbox with an iPod theme, so it looks stock. The wolfson DAC hits *just* right for all my FLAC files. The EQ settings could be a bit easier to set, but it's good when you tweaked it just right.

Poweramp, hands down. You can't spend $5 on a lifetime license for the best mobile audio player?

I bought Rocket Player, and I have no regrets.

 

[Ryccardo]

an iPod Mini 2G, excellent UI, low bullshit, perfect shape for my hands and I already have plenty of dock connector accessories from the iPhone days

On android, Eleven (the cyanogenmod 13 one), Sony Walkman, or Musicolet (great and very customizable but clunky UI) in this ranking order

 

[VinsCool]

I've been going with Droidsound-E for several years with compatibility to multiple formats for years without looking elsewhere.
This one does everything I need.

There could be UI improvements but all I need is something to read and play files, everything else is needless extras.

 

[fvig2001]

I have DoubleTwist installed but really just use Plex out of convenience.

I agree, especially if you have android tv systems. Just too bad to use with a controller and no mouse cursor.

 

[Necron]

Foobar2000. It has built in audio conversion as well. The UI is very basic, but it can do everything.
In ye olden days, I used to run Winamp, nice skins and compatibility.

On linux I used deadbeef, pretty similiar to Foobar2000. The only con is that it has issues with psf/minipsf files.

i always used the built in android player
