Plum Music Player

This is the best iphone app I have used for manually choosing what you want to listen to from a big library, especially if you are album-focused. The folders are so useful and easy to use, so it’s easy to look back through your collection and find what you want to listen to, whether you want to organize it by when you found it, genre, mood, or whatever. I got so frustrated with all the platforms pushing generated playlists and making it hard to see what you like. This app has helped me reappreciate so much old music I haven’t listened to in a while because it was down at the bottom of my library in streaming apps!

Good app, lots of options and very generous unlimited trial of Pro features. Definitely has some bugs, though. It crashes when I press and hold on a song, but not when I do the same to an album or playlist. It also freezes up when I try to skip tracks while playing from the "Songs" view. Other than bug fixes, the only thing this is missing (and this is an important feature for me) is the ability to select multiple items at once for bulk playlisting/favoriting. It's so tedious to (since I can't press and hold on tracks without crashing) play each track and favorite from the player over and over.

I use plum every day. I have done so for the past few months. The developer has been continuing to improve an already useful app. Happy with the purchase and looking forward to where it goes from here.
