Doppi: a local music player

Great and simple music player for your iOS device. Much better than the default iOS music app and worth every penny if a stable release comes out. There are lots of pesky bugs though. The updating logo is right over the play/pause icon making it tricky to pause music when the library is updating which seems like it’s constantly updating. The app crashes a lot - not exaggerating this. Each crash resets your play count and any playlist you create. CarPlay causes the player to crash about every 10 seconds, not a big deal but is annoying. Overall a great music player for your personal music library but the constant and consistent bugs make it difficult for daily use. I may give it another change whenever a major update comes out.

I’ve been searching for ages for a well-designed, beautiful, standalone music player, and somehow missed this gem! It’s full-featured, without any intrusive telemetry or analytics (thank you, developer). The interface is modern and fluid, and it doesn’t feel cluttered or overwhelming. While it may not have the mind-boggling number of features that Poweramp offers (it’s not an iOS app), it shines through with its understated elegance that enhances your music experience without getting in the way. While I have experienced an occasional crash, I feel fairly confident that this will be fixed in coming updates.

The player interface UI could use some work. It feels very disjointed from the rest of the app. I feel like the player card could be way more unified. The elements feel like they were just thrown together. I feel like the album art and playback controls shouldn't be separate, and there is too much empty space at the top, making the player look weird. Also, whenever I'd try to add cover art to a song, the changes would not be saved.
