VLC media player for Positive User Reviews

It’s a stupid player!Why does it lack the ability to add/import local subtitles? Why can I not download a stream and convert it into a mp4…etc…? Update/Response… I use an encrypted cloud service to store videos.. Although the video may have a name within the website or app, When I want to share/view the video, it creates a random URL with too many characters, so I cannot name the subtitle the same name as the URL… There is no option to import a subtitle regardless of the name of the video, the source of the video, and the name of the subtitle… When I play a video, and I click on the subtitles icon, There should be an option to browse for a subtitle file. whether it’s in SSA, or an SRT, regardless of whether it’s shares the same name of the video. This was the reply I got from you back in September of 2022…: "You are absolutely right. We are going to add that feature." So far this feature has yet to be added… I don’t expect much to change, as this is after all a free piece of software; and developers put their own precious time into something that nobody pays for… This is not a criticism, it’s an observation… It’s probably the best player hands down on windows/Mac/Linux… Thanks for all the hard work that has gone into making video playing tasks simpler… it has saved me countless hours needless headaches… for that a salute you.. 🫡🖖🏼.Version: 3.4.7

The OG coneGood ole vlc been around since the beginning and still gettin better.Version: 3.3.10

I love it.I love VLC so much. I threw my WAV files and a few MP4 files on it and it does what I need… but it doesn’t report song information to either my Dock Connector to my truck or to my iPhone’s lock screen. Maybe fix this issue? I even tried reinstalling the app, and even force rescanned the Media Library. I also think a “Lyrics” function should be added where if you have files, you can edit them on iTunes or some other related app before dropping them in VLC, and if they’re written to that file, VLC detects it and adds a button for you to view the lyrics on the current audio player page. Otherwise, this app is perfect! Opens almost anything..Version: 3.4.3

Recent updates won’t allow VOB file playback anymore - now resolved !!!Noticed an issue when playing back files from MYCloud by WD - files won’t play unless you sign out of and then back into MyCloud - not sure if the issue is with VLC or MYCloud ..Version: 3.3.6

No repeatThe latest version of this app is a lot better and easier to use. However, the repeat button (I’m guessing the lock with circling arrow) doesn’t actually repeat my videos, they just close. Am I missing something?.Version: 3.3.4

Streaming is glitched while playing from wako appIts a great app but latest update bricked something and while streaming from wako app it try’s to play the source file but crashes immediately. Plz fix it asap. I love the work u guys r doing & greatly appreciate it. 😊.Version: 3.3.0

May04, 2023. Latest release.May04, 2023. Latest release does not align the video with audio. There is a delay now when watching videos. Hope this can be corrected, as VLC has been an amazing video player for years. Thanks for all your great work..Version: 3.4.0

Feedback on FaceIDI would appreciate if you could fix the bug that causes the FaceID to appear inconsistently when I want to unlock the VLC app. FaceID works if you relaunch the app after closing it. I have been using VLC player for a very long time and love its flexibility in customising the hot keys to my suit. When the VLC player for iPadOS was updated, I was surprised to see the playback speed control icon (my favourite feature) removed from the viewing screen and buried in the submenu within the settings. It is very disappointing because I use this feature a lot in adjusting the playback speed between 2x and 4x on the fly while screening the videos. Under the new UX/UI design, I would have to stop the video then access the playback speed under settings to adjust. Please bring the icon back to the viewing screen! Thanks!.Version: 3.3.7

SMB - failing since upgradePreviously I could stream any size media from my SMB shares, now most of them fail after about 2 seconds of play time…. Results same on iPad and Apple TV. Thank you for all the work you’ve put into the app so far, but please rollback or address this. My number one app is now useless to me. :(.Version: 3.3.4

Apr 27, 2022 update - can’t access playback speedAnother update again that’s making this once excellent 5 star program just a complete pain to use. On iPads, the playback speed was moved off the front screen, and is now in a menu which as of today no longer works. In the video options, the following don’t respond to being touched/tapped: Video filters Playback speed Sleep timer Only equalizer and lock interface respond. Please fix this and then stop tinkering with what was once a really stable and great program / app. Apr 29, 2022 Thanks for updating the app with the fix, much appreciated. If you can reconsider adding a playback speed icon/button to the active screen as there was for years that would get me back to 5 stars, as playing programmes at faster speeds (2x) means there’s always times when there’s the occasional voice that is unintelligible, requiring a quick skip back 10 seconds and change to normal speed, then once you’ve understood what was said you can go back up to 2x again..Version: 3.3.6

The bestHands down the best media player out there. Thanks for all of your hard work devs..Version: 3.3.7

V3.3 is amazing! + Some feedbackAwesome new interface, but best is the speed improvements while playing video from accessing the network. It used to take between 10-20seconds to start a video file on a network drive and scrubbing/skipping forward or backward had noticeable latency - now that’s all gone, everything is near instantaneous! Scrubbing is amazing to find a specific point in a video quickly! Great update and work! Some feedback for future improvements: - if you have password lock on for opening VLC, it feels like content should pause or stop playing if it’s locked. For example minimizing the app locks it, but content keeps playing in the background. If you try open open up the app again, password is requested but audio content is still playing. Feels like password protect is leaving a small loophole in its privacy. - when playing media back in shuffle mode, pressing back used to (a few versions ago) take you to the last video you watched but it now just goes to the video before it when sorted by file name. It feels like a good use-case to cache what was watched so that you can rewatch one quickly if you wanted by pressing back once or multiples times to go back multiple videos. - it would be nice to have more configurable playback controls with gestures. Instead of just turning them on and off, be able to assign what gestures do. For instance, If I want swiping up to jump forward 1 min instead of increasing volume.Version: 3.3.0

Works okI am using this app to watch simple MP4 files. It works excellent for watching them while on my iPad however, while I am casting to my TV with Chromecast, it works for a while, and then will give playback errors. When I attempt to use airplay, the video will not work at all. Sometimes they told me it has to convert the video and I say OK while other times it doesn’t, but it’s still gives errorsafter casting for an undefined amount of time to the TV. The worst part is the video completely restart each time and you have to go through the video and find the part you were on..Version: 3.4.6

Love this appThere are some issues but I can live with them. Needs one update for the playlist folders. Do you think it would be possible to add the total length of the tracks as per folder? I have several folders in the playlist and each folder has various tracks. As I work very often with it I keep changing the tracks inside each folder, it would be great if I could see the time length of each folder, and no need to count it manually. An example: the folder has 5 tracks total time length is 39min 24s. If I add one more track of 5min it will show me 44min 24s. But at the moment is not showing that. Please advice..Version: 3.3.12

Great app, could be better 👍Big possible improvements: 1. Add folder support. Replace album structure with folder structure where folders can be made within folders for more in depth organisation. Also add sorting options within. 2. Remove resizing embedded image in audio files. The embedded images display fine in grid view, however upon opening the file/song into the main view menu, the image gets compressed to a square canvas. The image should be left in its original form like those in grid view. I really do appreciate the fact that all types of audio file format can be played!.Version: 3.3.10

Love it but one small problemI’ve been using VLC for the longest time to listen to my flac music, but after an update a while back my music has gaps in it always in one specific part of the song which varies between tacks. This doesn’t occur with mp3 VBR, or ogg by what I tested. Putting the music on pc and using VLC or other software doesn’t cause these gaps. My music coming from direct download from qobuz, deezer, or other sources, doesn’t matter they all have the same issue if the format is flac..Version: 3.3.12

Best media player that's ever been releasedPerfect. Very reliable and fast. And all the little things like adjusting the sound or brightness WHILE the video is playing make this just absolutely perfect. Developers, thanks you very much..Version: 2.3.0

Last update made the app behave weirdIt was all fantastic up until recently that I updated the app. the UI has changed which is fine i’ll get used to it soon enough but the playback specifically mp3 playback is weird now. VLC now plays songs in this weird high pitch tone/way that I cannot fix using the equalizer. the mp3 also stutters mid playback AND the app, specially the seeker slider thingy becomes unresponsive & JUMPS to the point I grabbed & pulled. these issues are all new. never encountered anything before. but honestly I don’t know what is causing the issue, VLC or iPadOS 16.5, cause they both updated during the last week if I’m not mistaken. anyways just wanted to let the devs know about this. I’ll wait for another update…please fix this. thank you so much..Version: 3.4.2

ProblemThis app has been amazing and i have used it for years but recently with the new update iam having alot of issues ,for one my shows play in a green tint all the time and I couldn’t figure out how to fix it , another problem is that my audio files are not playing in the full screen just showing up as a bar on the lower part of the screen iam unable to press on them and have them displayed on the full screen where i can edit the playback speed and everything. Please fix the bugs soon ,this app is a staple and iam sad to see it having so many issues. 4 stars for always being reliable before this problem..Version: 3.3.1

AmazeballsGreat App, Great Company/Organisation. Been a fan for years on other platforms. Appreciate the freeness and robustness. I get that some ppl find it nerdy as the user interface isn’t like a spoon fed app and all glossy but there will always be other alternatives for that experience, I’ll see you all back here when you just want an app that works ! Keep up the amazing work..Version: 3.3.10

The best player for iosSuper player, no questions.Version: 3.3.7

Updated 3 to 5 starsThis is the most advanced & compatible video player Apple has when it comes to playing other companies formats. Also it is the only player that plays clips CONTINUOUSLY on any Apple product. How they managed to do that is worth 5 stars alone. Previous review: Wow. I’m new to Apple & quite frankly the resolution & camera is all it’s got. 2 years ago this was the only player that I could figure out to work & the highest rated. I mean after transferring all my mp4s it couldn’t find them. It or the iPad or iPhone corrupted half my files on a separate disc after I discovered a way into not being forced to upload them to iCloud for a price. Like $1000 for my phone & $500 for the pad wasnt enough? Or having the glory of being a $3-trillion company to smear it in bill gates face wasn’t enough ya gotta try to force new customers to buy storage? I have my own storage stop harassing me it gets old & it’s rude, very rude. Anyways…. So a few days ago this app just stops working. I have 2.86GB of free space I mean come on… to cheap to give me 64GB? Or want me to buy iCloud by building less storage? Idk I’m tired of this crap. This app is like Dinosaur Windows Media Player. It plays good but very few controls to mess with it really is like the old days. Very shocking & really pisses me off about Apple. Wow.Version: 3.4.9

Where’s the download progress option??Love the app, but after all these years, still no picture-in-picture on the iPad? And news if that will come soon?.Version: 3.3.12

So far so goodSwitched from Movie Player to VLC and it’s been so much better so far! I just wish there was a ‘manual grouping’ feature as opposed to ‘automatic grouping’, as some of my movies are a series and aren’t in the folder with the others, making them all spread out further.Version: 3.4.0

It’s goodI’m very surprised the ratings are not higher for VLC. I use it on my computers add on my iPhone and it works well.Version: 3.3.10

Mostly worksEvery now and then the app will get stuck in an infinite loop of about 30 seconds when live streaming. The only way to fix this is to close the app, turn off the iPhone or iPad, wait a few minutes, and then start over with a cold boot. Is this an Apple problem or VLC problem? It started happening about a month ago when Apple pushed out their latest iOS and iPadOS. Perhaps Apple should worry less about “new features” for the fully failed but woke loser snowflake generation and spend more time on fixing existing problems..Version: 3.4.9

Wonderful app but with minor details to fixThis is a fantastic app with video and audios. So many preferences and options for users in need to tune and choose. However for the feature to play on external screens, I am in an iPhone 15 pro max currently and I can only hear the sound that passes through the TYPE C to HDMI cable but can’t see the video but only a black screen, please fix that part. Apart from that it is overall a outstanding app.Version: 3.4.9

Great, but gestures.Really polished and well featured. Love the app transfers with iTunes! I dislike the gestures though, there should be an option to disable them if you want. Thanks Videolan :).Version: 2.2.2

Good, but has some playback problemsI use this mainly for music so my review will focus on that. The different categories that tracks are sorted into are very helpful (album, genre, etc.), and the network section is easy to use while also providing several ways to download/add music. When I listen to tracks with a bluetooth device connected, some songs have a second of silence at the very beginning. Sometimes there’s a split second of sound, followed by another moment of no sound, and then the rest of the track plays normally. Rewinding doesn’t make it play that part; it’s just silence. Playing audio through my phone speaker doesn’t have this problem, so I know it’s not my bluetooth headphones. Additionally, from my understanding, the queue does not show the next actual song when using shuffle play. It just shows the queue as if the shuffle option were not toggled on. Shuffle also appears to include tracks that are added to the queue via the “Play next in queue” option when shuffling. As a result, adding a song to the front of the queue with shuffle on does not result in the track actually being played next. Overall, this is a reliable app, and has been very useful as I have moved away from streaming services and towards buying music. That being said, some fixes/changes to the previously mentioned issues would make it even better..Version: 3.4.6

Pretty goodLinux user, so familliar with VLC on desktop. One of the few modern applications still supporting us 32-bit users on ios 9, and doing it well! Hats off to the team behind this for keeping perfectly usable devices still in service presumably years to come..Version: 3.3.7

Good appPlease add Picture in Picture mode..Version: 3.4.4

Wifi file transferThe wifi file transfer is a really useful option for us windows users who feel life is too short to work out how else to get files on to their ipad! Simple and works really well. Thanks..Version: 3.3.7

Download bar not functioningI’m using an up to date iPad 6th edition and have noticed that VLC no longer shows the download progress on the download bar. It shows the speed of download in Mb/s but no time of it finishing is there and no change of colour indicating the download progress. It does however successfully download from Seedr but until my iPad screen goes blank I have no idea that it has finished. Otherwise this is a perfect app and I’d never use anything else..Version: 3.3.2

Good developersProviding a 5 star review in attempt to combat all the 1 star reviews. VLC has good developers who listen to community feedback. Even when—for some reason—someone thinks the review section is the place for a bug report. Thanks for making a seamless iOS player! Connecting to other devices is extremely useful..Version: 3.4.9

GoodIts good but i would like to be able to sort videos into folders, and half the time the videos play without the audio. Also, with airplay, only the audio is sent through and the video is left playing on the device.Version: 2.0.2

Welcome back to the app store!Kick all the other (expensive!) media player apps!.Version: 2.0.1

Good appGreat app but would be good if the screen moves when playing songs from the playlist When you select a song from the bottom of the playlist the screen stays still.Version: 3.3.7

Love the app but …I would love a way of editing the artist,album,genre etc after downloading inside the app.Version: 3.4.6

Please add external USB drive supportThis is my preferred app, but this iOS 13 feature hasn’t been integrated yet. Hopefully it won’t be far off?.Version: 3.2.2

I have no idea how to open the now playing viewer now.This sounds stupid, I know. It opened automatically the first time I played a song, but half a second after it closed the now playing viewer and now always starts songs in the small bar at the bottom (like a quick controls you know? With the skip songs and pause and play?) and nothing I do opens the now playing menu. iPad if Apple doesn’t show you. I can’t use repeat, or song speed, or anything but skip and play/pause without the now playing menu. I have tried all sorts of gestures near the small bar. All swiping down does is close it and left and right skips songs. I cannot open that now playing menu! Help, please. I love your app but I just can’t open this menu now..Version: 3.3.7

Useful video appUseful app. Please consider removing the iPhone status bar (battery, clock etc) in portrait mode. It’s a huge distraction and there doesn’t seem to be a way of removing it currently..Version: 3.3.7

Long-time userI’ve been using VLC across various platforms for longer than I care to count, and I’m really glad to have it on iPad, especially as an open-source refuge! If I were to make one complaint, it’s that I would dearly love to see PiP support - it’s the one feature that’s missing for me.Version: 3.3.9

Significant increase in power useAfter current update the app uses a LOT more battery than usual and heats up the phone (iPhone 8). (Experienced this while playing some 1080p x265 videos).Version: 3.1.0

Apple TV ( VLC )Fantastic media player , had a problem on Apple TV devs fixed amazingly fast , very happy thank you 👌🏻 Will definitely send a tip been using VLC for years.Version: 3.3.1

Great AppWatching movies and your favourite shows on your phone has never been easier thanks to VLC. Thank you❤️ - I do have one piece of feedback, when I fast forward my video I don’t like jumping 20sec. Can we customise this feature so that it can skip 5 or 10 seconds..Version: 3.1.8

Great option!Fantastic option to both play and manage video files stored locally on my ipad. Highly recommended.Version: 3.3.10

Still showing StereoIt’s written, Latest update supports Spatial Audio but when I played a multichannel movie it shows only “stereo”. But when played same 5.1 channel mp4 movie on FE Explorer. It showed “multichannel “. I was using airpods max.Version: 3.3.0

Thanks for the excellent app but…..Please add playback speed option in the main screen only, only reset playback button is appearing, if it possible adjust speed there only it would be wonderful.Version: 3.3.3

Love VLC but can’t use appI have used VLC on my computer for years & love it, hence the higher score. Can not use the app. The app instructions to transfer videos & music from a MacBook to an iPhone do not actually work. It says to use iTunes- I am using macOS Catalina. There is still the iTunes Store but no iTunes App. Now it is music or videos. Maybe if I could transfer from the VLC computer program itself or have new instructions/ videos to help. Edit: was able to get the video on using a flash drive with USB-C & Apple Lightning sides. Works great! Thank you 🙏.Version: 3.3.6

EDIT: It actually still has looping. -Why remove looping?-More fiddling with the app revealed that the button for looping only appears in the video controls when the player is in horizontal orientation, not vertical. Presumably this is because there is more room to fit buttons in the bottom of the screen there than in vertical orientation. Shame that it got somewhat "buried" so me and at least one other reviewer I saw thought it was removed and shot off inaccurate reviews. Anyway, here is your full, very well deserved, five stars. May this app remain as fine or better for many years to come. IGNORE AFTER THIS POINT; NOT CORRECT: -I used the video looping feature often, both on single videos and playlists, so the choice to remove such a useful feature that has been in this app for as long as I've had it is disappointing. If the looping feature was left in, this update would have gotten a full five stars from me, not four.-.Version: 3.3.0

Best everWow, this is possibly the best media player for iOS, just as good as the PC version. The player is more efficient that QuickTime and can play more video formats than other readers as well. Brightness controls and colour controls make it a mile better than anything else..Version: 2.3.0

New update is two steps backwardsNew issues with the download bar now not displaying correctly. You can still download things but looks broken. Removed the loop/repeat function when playing videos which now means you have to tap the arrow in the top left corner then press and hold to find it. In my opinion this I very unnecessary and didn't need changing 🤦🏻‍♂️. The 'sort by' and 'grid layout' is bugged and when you switch over to audio, playlists, network or settings it switches back and glitches out... Still an ok app but it comes down with the old saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it.".Version: 3.3.4

Great alternative for old fashioned media syncingI really like this app since I’m stuck in 2008 and prefer to have my own personal copies of audio files downloaded to my devices. It’s fairly customizable, does a decent job of automatically sorting artist/album, works with pretty much any file type. Only a few issues: 1. Sometimes when listening via Bluetooth, audio tracks have about the first second cut off, or a noticeable gap between tracks. 2. I’d love if I could download full folders from an smb file share, since that’s typically how I get my music to my phone- having to go to Apple’s awful Files app to do so is annoying, but slightly better than copying tracks individually. 3. The ability to modify the tags used to organize tracks straight from the app would be great for the few cases where it doesn’t sort like I want it to..Version: 3.3.7

Good butApp works well for most, but why is there no option for casting- I would love to be able to use my Chromecast.Version: 3.3.4

Sub panel blocks videoOverall a great media player. Steadily improved 👍🏻 However, the latest (?) update means the sub panels block the playback. Eg: You can’t see the video when say adjusting the brightness, contrast etc. Not helpful! Happens in particularly in landscape and to much lesser extent in portrait. This is on an iPhone 11 Pro Max. Otherwise highly recommended..Version: 3.3.7

Audio does not start where I pause itAmazing that this is free and such a joy to have on my mobile. But it has one problem. When I pause on exceptionally long audio, the audio does not resume where I stopped and will skip a second or two..Version: 3.3.12

Great AppThe windows version is great on computers and now the iPad app allows playing of MKV files without the need for conversion, handy. However AVI Files aren't always the best showcased on this app..Version: 2.0.2

Great appI love to use this to transfer my videos but there is one problem whenever i transfer this to photo in ipad its doesnt have a sound.Version: 3.2.13

Unable to see unpn servers since ios16 upgradeUnable to see unpn servers since ios16 upgrade. Can still see them on iPads and Mac. Developer update a fix for this which worked great..Version: 3.3.9

Great offline player. Minor issues thoIt's also what I use to view webm/ogg files. A game changer if you have a huge library and want to save on space! Unfortunately I couldn't give it 5 stars in its current state. The UX is a bit.. avant-garde. Sometimes i try to swipe down / pinch to zoom (for video) and it turns the volume/brightness down or changes aspect ratio. Great for power users but it trips me up most of the time. And most recently im having an issue with the repeat 1 mode (🔂). Playing a song all the way through in the background will cause the loop to break, and stop playing the song. Hoping since the app is open source that'll get addressed soon tho! :).Version: 3.4.6

It was 5 stars. But the new update made it so annoying.It was an awesome way for my audio library to be accessible. However, sense the new update, I was having trouble with loop single. You used to be able to skip forward to reply the audio when it was on loop single. But now, when I skip forward (or back) it plays the next or last audio file and it changes loop to loop all. This is so annoying and please make sure we can turn this new feature on or off so I can use the app well again and other people can still take advantage. Thanks!.Version: 3.4.0

Fantastic appGreat app where I can watch my video files in my phone with subtitles included, plays most formats.Version: 3.3.3

Very good but..I’ve used this on my mac like forever, really amazing and free. I recently started using this video player on my ipad but there is one problem that I hope can be fixed. I tried using it in a meeting and when i paused it to discuss something, i played it again but everytime i play it the video starts and then the audio starts about 1 or two seconds later and i always miss the start of what the next person says so had to rewind it back several times. Because of this i had to find a different player..Version: 3.3.7

Picture In Picture PleaseGreat app overall, always been my video player of choice but please add PiP support.Version: 3.3.3

Amazing but keeps crashing :/The features to this app are awesome! However sometimes it crashes after a few seconds of being open and every time I reopen it, it crashes after 5 seconds. The only way for me to resolve this is delete the app and re-install it. IPad mini retina, latest version of the app.Version: 2.3.0

Video playback stuck in horizontal modeLove the app and use it as my main video player when watch videos on my phone. I’m currently having an issue with the new update where the video in the app can’t be viewed in landscape mode, it seems to be stuck in horizontal..Version: 3.3.2

Playlist bugThis app is now visible in apple car play. Now, there is issue with ‘playlist’. It does not show all songs in ‘playlist’ of this app. It shows the very first song of the playlist and the rest just disappear. Result is: since only one song can be played from playlist, no automatic play sequence of rest songs happens. Before this app was optimised to “apple car play”, we could play sequence of songs of ‘playlist’ seamlessly and perfectly via ‘apple car play’ even the app itself was not showing as an app in ‘apple car play’ in my VW Tiguan. So, please fix this ‘playlist’ issue..Version: 3.4.0

Really good mp3 player however…Downloaded the app so i could migrate my mp3 songs from the player to iphone, since the app doesn’t have ads or any paid features, it is really great for peoples that like to not spend money on things. Only issues were audios not playing when picked on the iphone and listening to the audios with a bluetooth headphone will work but it will start after skipping some seconds in the beginning. App was used on ios 16.6 and headphones are BNC700.Version: 3.4.7

A bug in last updateVLC is a superb app & I pretty much like it. But in the last update there is a bug , i have playlists in which I have inserted some songs multiple times in a row in order to listen to some of my favorite tracks 15 minutes in a row , but after last update, when I play my playlists, the same tracks that i have put multiple times in a row r being considered 1 & just one of them being played and then the app jumps to the other songs & doesn’t play all the repetitions that I have added.Version: 3.4.1

More Effort Needed but GoodDevs are improving the app which is nice to see but its not fully there. For example, for streaming from slower servers, scrubbing has to be done multiple times for it to skip to that part of the video. It won’t just accept where you want to go to, and show up a loading animation or something..Version: 3.4.0

My review for VLCI love ❤️ the latest update of the app. It fixed some bugs about the app but it could have been better with the Picture in Picture mode..Version: 3.4.8

360 degree video?Great app but any chance of adding 360 degree video support that you can pan with your finger? It would be perfect for me if it had that feature!.Version: 3.3.7

Minor audio problems, but otherwise great!Whenever I try listening to music in VLC (MP3 format to be precise, but probably happens on other formats too), the volume seems to automatically go down a lot when the music gets a bit louder. After resetting the equaliser, the problem is gone, but the audio now pitch bends on its own accord (edit: this only seems to happen when skipping a large part or at the beginning). Works great for video though, and the WiFi transfer feature is nice too!.Version: 3.3.7

Must-have player for i-devicesIt's a small miracle that we have VLC available. Whoever is making builds for i-devices is a hero!.Version: 3.3.12

MathewCrash while searching song finally fixed. My best version for this app was the late 2021 version. All versions released after that always contains one bug or the other. The library has been messed up in later versions. Albums use to be group accordingly in 2021. Also grouped according to names and easier to access media. But later versions messed up everything. I wish I could still have the 2021 version on my devices..Version: 3.4.1

Excellent!Supports latest x265 formats, is free and works with my SMB server, what more could you want….Version: 3.4.7

What ive been looking for!!!This is the greatest thing to happen to iPad since iPad. Plays formats that the iPad cant normally play! No need to convert videos to mp4 it will play loads! Must have, no issues whatsoever!.Version: 2.0.1

Repeating 1st song on playlist non stopIt has started to just repeat the first song in the playlist non stop, I have repeat turned off but that changes nothing. If i hit the next button it just replays again. Selecting a song further down stops this but means pulling over when driving..Version: 3.4.7

Problem.Can't delete videos..Version: 2.6.6

Amazing appSo easy to transfer movies using wifi and they play pause perfectly.Version: 3.4.7

No longer shows next video…But does play it in background? The playing video screen is dark image? of next video, so it must be closed, then mini window of next video shows and that can then be full screened. It is a pain. And. These things happen. Hope a fix happens. Too..Version: 3.4.0

Overall greatSuits all my video playback needs. Although latest update has broken the PIP feature, which I used all the time!.Version: 3.3.7

Plays everything butI wish they would develop the network play capabilities. ITs already more advanced than many paid apps but the network download could be well improved by having a download list or progress bar. Right now I click on download for a couple of files and I'm lucky if it downloads one!.Version: 2.1.3

Great app, works perfectly fine 98% of the timeI’ve been using this for the past few months and it works great. It plays my music fine, and importing music was a breeze. It can also be used as a pseudo file transfer app, letting me export files to other devices. However, I have some problems. One, I notice that my music skips somewhat when turning on my phone. Music scrubbing outside of the app (on the lock screen) is very inaccurate, and will sometimes jump to another part of the song. After skipping, the pitch is slightly off; it’s slightly higher. I know it’s a very niche nitpick, but since I’ve noticed it I can’t un-hear it..Version: 3.3.6

IOS 9!Thank you for not abandoning iOS 9 users even long after Apple had stopped supporting us. This helps cut down on eWaste and will help perfectly fine media consumption devices remain functional for years to come..Version: 3.3.0

The best player, but please AUv3, AudioBus or IAA support.VLC is still my favourite media player. Specially for musicians it would be even better, if it was possible to load it as an AUv3 plugin into a host application like AUM. Or, if that’s to complex, then please offer AudioBus or IAA (Inter App Audio) support..Version: 3.3.12

Solid media player[updated] Colorspace issue fixed in 3.3.2. Some feedback on the new UI: - [iPad Pro] less sensitive adjustment sliders in playback view?: The left & right side “virtual” sliders for volume & brightness during playback are extremely sensitive, you have to barely roll your finger on the spot for a small adjustment, any bigger finger movement will max out the slider in either direction - [iPad Pro] denser list view?: Non-thumbnail list view (ex.: network folder) leaves a lot of space between names, as well as ~2/3 of the screen on the right empty. Or maybe at least generate & cache thumbnails for non-local folders? [previously] My full review incl. the green/purple video issue and an immediate workaround was not published for 7(!) days - until after the app was updated already. When I wanted this unpublished review removed it WAS published in its useless form below, with a wasted response from the developer? [was: “Review not being published?”-“So delete this because I can’t”].Version: 3.3.2

Love it, little issue atm:Best music app. Little thing at the moment: If i play the first somg in a playlist it will repeat when ive selected shuffle in the play menu. Ato start a shuffle i have to start on the 2nd song... but it doesnt seem to shuffle through all songs. Its fine i can manage honestly. Best application, best app, you all deserve a medal for your work. The whole world loves u Thx.Version: 3.4.7

Streaming doesn’t workDownloaded to try and bypass YouTube’s age restrictions without giving google my information and it wouldn’t load the videos at all, it works on my pc but not on my phone and my pc is currently unplugged.Version: 3.3.6

Thank you for colour registration fixVLC works again. Thank you so much for such a great app and quick response to my earlier review..Version: 3.3.2

Serves its purposeI use it to send videos from my laptop to my iPhone and it works very well- best most simple method I know!.Version: 3.3.10

Great app thoughCreating sub folders and moving files around is a difficult task..Version: 3.1.9

Love thisGreat app. Especially love the ability to download/stream from Google Drive. Would love to see Picture in Picture added so you could watch video while doing other things..Version: 3.3.7

Great appReally great app on the whole with constant positive improvements but would there be any chance of a swipe up/down screen movement for playback speed? That would make it almost perfect. Thanks! PS the latest update seems to change the pitch when playing at higher speeds?.Version: 3.3.7

One issueThere was an issue before the latest update which was whenever I turned on the “Descending order” toggle under “Sort by” option, it used to automatically turn the toggle off when I switched tabs or closed the app and relaunched it. In the latest update, it seems that the issue is only partially fixed. Now it doesn’t automatically turn the toggle off when I switch tabs but it still automatically turns it off if I completely close the app (from app switcher) and enter it again. Please fix this too..Version: 3.3.7

Works well with a few minor annoyancesI’ve used VLC for the past 3 years and it is great for anything I need with media. The ability to put movies and music on my phone without having to plug it in is great and I’ve had no issues with grouping. Great app all round. Unfortunately it struggles with orientation lock. There’s an in app setting to lock the orientation of the player, but if you use it all the controls are blocked out except turning the lock off..Version: 3.2.8

Bye to other mplayersPlease make Background Downloading and Web page download.Version: 2.0.1

ShuffleHey guys just thought i'd let you know that shuffle for music is broken. Im using an iphone 13 pro on ios 16.3. Thanks, just wanted to let you know. Protip: dont copy apple's shuffle algorithm where it shuffles a bunch of a time. It has to be ine shuffle at a time with the ability to rewind the track in case you want to go back to something the shuffle showed you that you want to go back to. Apple ruined shuffle in music. Like shuffle on an ipod touch 1st through third gen i know is awesome. It always plays the song you want. With the current state of apple's music shuffle, its trying to shuffle things all at once so the device spits back bad songs that aren't in tune with what the listener wants to hear. Please be the savior of music on ios VLC. Pleasee. Oh yeah vlc is amazing for music because of the volume amp thing. Hey now..Version: 3.3.12

Great app but…VLC on IOS is very well made with great features and media support. There is just one issue, randomly there is a slight speed change, it gets a tiny slower along with a pitch change..Version: 3.4.5

Fantastic appOccasional glitch here and there, but otherwise brilliant and always gets the job done, even with streaming over SMB. The developers of this app are absolute legends..Version: 3.3.10
