VLC media player Reviews

Awful

JT-0941 on

United Kingdom

The only word I can use for this app is awful. The layout is terrible. Track names side by side so you can see the track names, when importing from files the files decide to import some then more later so you don’t know what you’ve already put into playlists etc. No option to change the interface to be nicer to use. It’s just awful. I expected more after using VLC on Mac for decades. Deleted and won’t use again.

Videos not appearing

Bizarre thing of videos that were there are disappearing. I move files to vlc folder and then it disappears in a few hours

Really unfortunate

Great app, would love to keep it on my iPhone but three times now it’s started playing a track (continuing where it last left off) with no trigger at all and whilst not running in the background as far as I could tell. Whilst I was asleep, whilst on silent and watching tv. Unfortunately therefore I had to delete the app. — Developer replied: Did you try disabling the continue playback option in settings? M: ok will reinstall and try sometime, but I agree it’s very odd behaviour and it is hard to understand how it would happen.

The best player by a mile

An average of 3.4/5 does not do justice to what is arguably the best video player available. I have yet to find a codec that does not work properly and for me this is what matters the most.

Audio

Whenever I listen back to an audio, it starts from the beginning. This is so annoying, especially when listening to podcasts.

No Picture in Picture

Plays media well but no Picture in Picture

One suggestion

Please allow viewing of subtitles for audio files

Great but does have issues

Have used this for a while now, but it has some issues that are a little annoying. I listen to audiobooks through the app and it will keep my place only sometimes. Often I’ll click to play the book I’m listening to and it starts from the beginning again. Another issue is that it doesn’t have the option to skip forward or back so many seconds like it used to, even though I have the option set in the settings.

Perfect <3
