GoodPlayer App Reviews

Plays nearly everything, but app is not usable due to crashes when app has no wifi available. please fix asap.

Many other video / network media broke and crashed after iOS 7, but GoodPlayer still works and keep updating.

Waste of money. It just crashes when connecting to my nas. Had it for less than 5 mins. Deleting.

This version stop working with smb shares. It simply does not list the files anymore

Does not support most video formats. AC3 sound not supported. And when it finally works, it crashes

Bought this to stream an . Asx radio station. Didnt work.... Wish it was a try before you buy. They state it can stream .asx however.

Doesnt play ac3 anymore and cant roll back to an earlier version... crashes all the time. Do yourself a favor and save your money!! :(

cant multitask while using other apps since last two updates. please fix this. thanks. otherwise a good app. get media burner. shame hustmobile.

Please redesign an icon please to optimize iOS 7. The current icon is so ugly especially a shadow at the bottom of the icon. Please redesign it ASAP.

I have tried dozens of different players - this one beats them all; plays movie very smooth

Plays everything, thanks!

So many formats supported but AC3 is not yet supported... I hope it will be in the next versions, it would be nice...

without AC3 support, it is pretty useless to me

I bought this app when it was version 1.0 and it has been my go-to for video playing since then. My loyalty faltered only once: I needed an app with variable playback speed (to get through recorded lectures faster) but this wasnt an available feature. Other apps offered that feature, but none had the clean interface or the simple functionality that I had grown used to with GoodPlayer. After getting frustrated with other apps, I emailed a request to add the feature. Lo and behold, only a few short weeks later the feature has been added. And it works better than other apps where playback speed is their raison-dêtre. Thanks, GoodPlayer, for an app that started great and remains competitive.

Doesnt work on wmv files!

Generally, love the player. Plays 90% of the files thrown at it, integrates with local network excellently, good controls. What I wish for is better buffering over local network (WiFi). Seems to struggle with high def movies, although it downloads the movie (an option) at much much quicker speeds. Also wish it paid royalty to support AC3 codec.

After upgrading to ios8 is started to close and no way to make it work even if I reinstall. It used to work like a charm prior to 8.0 but now nothing no way to play video files I like this app it is one of my bests ever but is useless now Quick help is appreciated Thx

I use this app to play back video lectures in multiple subject areas. Unlike VLC, I can categorize these lectures into multiple folders and subfolders (useful when u have 100s of videos). It will play back virtually any video format without conversion, including Flash container formats and HD video (with subtitles too). Can access dropbox etc. Can transfer video files into the app without iTunes via Wi-Fi or USB. My only wish is that the app could play videos at 1.5x or 2x normal speed which would be useful when listening to lectures.

I have an ipadAir 32gb and have been using this wonderful app until upgrade to iOS8 which seems to chew up more cpu leaving this app to struggle to play the videos -pausing every 30 secs or so. It also requires several tries to log into the app now. So I blame Apple entirely and the reality is they are unlikely to change. So I would ask the developer to update the app so it will work with this stupid iOS upgrade.

I am using an iPad Air iOs8 to use this to watch a variety of TV shows and movies owned by friends, whilst I am traveling. It worked great for a bit and then I ran into the same problems noted below. The developers were prompt in reply to my concerns, telling me to make sure the rotation was unlocked, and then to delete and reinstall the app. Bingo, it worked great, and I know that the developer really cares about the app.
