jetAudio Hi-Res Music Player

Perfect for anyone who keeps non-iTunes music on their phone. The premium version is inexpensive, and all add-ons are reasonably priced too. With premium, you get an ad-free experience, plus access to the equalizer and sound settings—which are honestly the most important features—along with a few extras. You can also add 3D audio and a visualizer as separate purchases, or pay about $12 extra on top of the already cheap premium (under $4) to unlock everything for life. That’s a big plus compared to other apps that charge yearly. Personally, I don’t need the 3D audio or extra features right now, but it’s nice having the option to buy them individually or all at once. If you have non-iTunes music, the only way to get it to show up in JetAudio is by doing a wireless transfer between your phone and a PC. Once you do that, a folder appears in the Files app—just drop your music in there and it’ll show up in the app. It also supports streaming from services like Dropbox, but I’ve read that the EQ might not work properly with streamed music (not 100% sure though). If you’re currently using VLC and want more control over your music, this is a great upgrade. It’s affordable, easy to use, and the sound quality—along with all the extra features—is excellent. Definitely recommend it for anyone who enjoys music and likes tweaking audio settings.

There was a music player app on iOS that I really liked that had good equalizer control and extra options but it was taken down from the App Store. This one was the most similar to that app I liked. I like the EQ controls, the ability to slow down or speed up the playback, and a bunch of other useful options. I like how you could easily move an MP3 file to the folder of the app using the My Files app, and then the app will play the MP3 file without needing to it iTunes and creating a playlist. This music player really does a lot and the features are useful to me. It is useful as an audiobook or podcast player as well as MP3 music. My only suggestion is to add "pitch correction" for when the playback speed is slowed down. The issue I have is when I slow down the playback speed, I could hear stuttering and gaps. I have used other music player apps and they have a feature to fix this issue by using software to stretch the sound file to avoid gaps and stutters when the playback is slowed down. I listen to MP3 audiobooks and I slow down the speech since the narrator sometimes reads too fast. I hope the developer reads this and considers adding this feature!

I love the Iphone app. It was worth every penny. I don’t mind paying even more. However, I have some suggestions. Wish there was an option when you select ‘artist’, merge all the ‘unknown albums’ together. It’s quite annoying to see some of the unclassified songs taking up so much screen space, because it organizes those songs as all different albums. Second, can you PLEASE have the ‘year’ information somewhere on the screen? I know most of my songs have the year information embedded in the file already, but I cannot find them in JetAudio AT ALL. Plus, I’m really waiting for Apple Watch version. Current problem of Apple Music app on Apple Watch is that you can only go to the ‘playlist’ level. You cannot select ‘playlist’ and find an individual songs. If you make this possible, I’ll be willing to spend more money purchasing that option. Last, improve your app icon. It looks pretty bad. Why people would use this app from the beginning? Because these app developers (JetAudio) make this categorization of music much better than Apple Music does.
