Have used NMP since 2016…maybe 2015?! Probably 2016. Anyway. While the UX is bland, dated, etc. the main reason for the 5 stars is the sound its able to push to my dac > cans > ears. It’s a music app first and anything after can be forgiven. It’s able to play all my lossless […]

used to be amazing, especially for its eq. easy to use, and in combination with rew i’m able to basically import the profiles into neutron. the app always asks for permission to use the dac (usb c to 3.5mm adapter i use), but that’s fine. i hate that recently it doesn’t play music, yet shows […]

I will start by saying I love this app. I use a Jam Box in my bathroom when I shower, I have a stereo in my “man cave” and then my car stereo. They all need different tuning to sound their best and this app makes that possible. The part I dont like is that […]

Best music player if you like to tweak your audio in various ways (EQ, crossfeed, etc.). One of the worst if you like pretty or intuitive UIs. Would be 5 stars with a little more work on the usability (i.e., easier playlist management, EQ preset switching without having to navigate through 3 menus, and stuff […]

Overall, a very nice Media Player. Developer helps out when issues arise. I haven’t tried or installed any other media players; I’m loyal to Neutron. I wish there were certain features, but what’s there seems sufficient for the price paid. Very grateful that the Developer promptly responds when there’s app issues. I’d be skeptical of […]

(would give 5 stars is there was an option to edit ID3 tags) The only audio player I’ll use and at the same time… Neutron is the absolute best player available on a mobile device but I’ll never update through the play store ever again. If you have your music stored on an SD card […]

Despite the interface which definitely takes some time to get used to, this is arguably the most complete and best-sounding audiophile player on Android. A set of DSPs including parametric EQ (up to 60 bands!) and even AutoEq presets make for a very customizable sound. Also the trial period is much longer than competition, so […]

This is one of the few apps I’ve purchased, it’s excellent to have this level of control over media. I’ve run into issues with the app’s validation – when I have limited cellular connectivity the app notifies me that my evaluation period is over, and shuts down, even though I’ve purchased it. I’ve since moved […]

I have to alter my review to 1 star here. This change is being made because the UI issues in this program were never fixed. I’m using the same phone and to this day in November 2021 the app still cannot reliably read from storage on an Android device and show the music library correctly. […]

After using this app now for 2 yrs+, Ive come to the conclusion it may be time to move on. This “audiophile grade” media player is basically worthless handling playlists, managing its own media library, and most annoying feature of all is its lack of id3 tag reading. I try to keep my mp3’s tags […]

It was working well at first. Now it cannot play album tracks in the right order. The ID3 tags are correct. Other apps on my phone play the tracks in the right order. Update: I emailed the developer and explain the problems that were occurring. He responded within a couple hours and help me fix […]

Best sound, plays opus. I like the ability to manually choose the folders to include in the library. So many players will automatically pick up any mp3 file anywhere in the file system, with no way to undo that. Neutron is a little more complicated to use, but worth it. Keep up the good work!

This is an edited review. I’d give it 6 stars if I could. The audiophile processing is amazing! Other apps have crossfeed, not as natural sounding as Neutron. If your device has a hi-fi DAC chip, you’re in for a treat! Best recommendation if you’re thinking about this app, have some good/high end ear phones, […]

This has been my favorite music playing app. for a long time. I just updated the app. and I had many, if not all of the recent issues that others are having. However, all I did to fix the problem was that I went into settings, forced stop, uninstalled and then reinstalled the app.. After […]

Audiophile quality, but user experience and ui need work. It will take some time to get used to it. The average user will probably prefer poweramp or blackplayer. I really wish it had tile view for albums, as well as sorting options to sort albums by artist or date added to library. It would also […]

Amazing! I have used various music players for many years, and I understand technology keeps getting better and more fascinating as the years move on, but this player gives the user so much control over the music sound on your mobile device it is no doubt one of the most useful and advanced players for […]

This is a great music player with a boatload of settings. That being said, I have music on my phone to listen to playlists and the playlist features are trash. I’ve wasted enought time trying to transfer playlists and get the player to read them. Unless you feel like editing every file location of the […]

Great sound, horrible UX, and, apparently, no interest in improving it. Some settings don’t work correctly. On my tablet, it automatically opens and plays as soon as my Bt earbuds connect, which is disabled, across all connections, in the settings. This is very annoying. My earbuds are paired to multiple devices. I don’t need music […]

Great sound, terrible organization… I want to love this player very badly. No other player has as many customization features and really allows every track to breathe musically. However, it is exceedingly difficult to navigate one’s library, and I have no idea why. Search functions simply do not work. I can’t locate any of the […]

Absolutely the best music player ever, period! PS: It’s been more than a week since Neutron stop recognizing lots of my music. Now half of my albums are missing from the player. I had to download another player to listen to my music. I tried everything (empty the library, re scanning again, etc) with the […]
