Great app but with not much frills.
Works perfectly as a client to my Subsonic Server but doesn’t offer much options. As free options a bit pricey
Description
Soundwaves is a client for the Subsonic music server.
Soundwaves focuses on simplicity, making it the ideal client to connect your iPad or iPhone to your home theater setup.
Optionally setting a suitable max bit rate, enables Soundwaves to work well even over a bandwidth limited connection (e.g. a mobile connection). It will also play nicely with your car radio, connected via USB, Bluetooth or CarPlay.
In addition to audio formats natively supported by iOS (e.g. mp3, AAC), Soundwaves can also play FLAC, Opus and Ogg Vorbis content.
Soundwaves can also play movies from your Subsonic server, as long as they are in a supported format (.mov, .mp4, .mpv, .3gp) or a proper transcoding has been configured on the server.
Soundwaves works with other media servers which implement the same Subsonic API's, such as Madsonic, Airsonic, Supysonic, LMS or Ampache.
Note about privacy: tracking only happens when using the free, ad-supported version. Removing ads via the in-app purchase also stops tracking and data collection.

Soundwaves Reviews
Crashes
I simply love this app to connect to my ampache instance. But after playing for about 30 minutes this version crashes. I had no crashes in previous versions.
There are better apps for free
I appreciate the effort of getting this on the app store but it’s too basic and doesn’t play any of my flacs.
Flawless AirSonic Client
This app is incredible and simple … perfectly integrates with subsonic/airsonic instances, searching is reliable and fast, playlists work flawlessly, and the system caching works very well while on spotty LTE / mobile connections. Very good!
No features
You cant do anything in this app
some flac have no sound
Some flac can play, some not. And all flac above 3000kbps failed to play
Works with Booksonic!
Now I can listen to podcasts and audiobooks on iOS!
Simple is excellent
I love the app. If you are looking for an app to simply play your music from your subsonic server, look no further. It's not flashy, but who needs flashy to effectively listen to music. It handles my 4K+ artist, 100k+ song library easily. I tried several other apps for subsonic and none of them worked. I think it's because they were too focused on showing album art and other stuff that affected the ability to just work. This app doesn't get clogged up trying to download album art or other stuff that doesn't matter-- it focuses on allowing me to simply play what I want. Keep up the great work!
Best Subsonic mobile client
This is (still) the best mobile client for your Subsonic server. Reliably connects to your server. Gives quick access to your content. Plays it with great sound quality. It's almost perfect. Wish it had a way to browse by album. Maybe in a future release.
If I could, I'd give it zero
So, for a long time I've had Soundwaves and it worked great, if a little slow. Suddenly it stopped working because it's doesn't have a secure connection, and I'm really annoyed. I've reconnected to the server and deleted the app several times, and it's still not working. Am I doing something wrong? I really want to have this music, but it won't let me play anything. I do not recommend this app, at least not today. If they let out an update or something to fix this, I would recommend it because there are no other apps on the App Store that appear to work. I've tried all the free ones.
