1. 5/5Almost Perfect

   First off, let me say that I’ve tried almost all of the offline music apps out there and Anywhere is superior in almost every way except one: it doesn’t support all music file types. I was hesitant to give the app 5 stars for this reason but I don’t want to dissuade others from using it because it’s an overall excellent app. Dev: please add the ability to play ogg files (like other music apps in the App Store). I would gladly continue to pay for premium if you did. Response to dev: thanks for responding but please research codecs. Ogg Vorbis is not an old format. It is an open source compressed format and superior to MP3 while matching the quality of Apple’s AAC (M4A). Also, you cannot convert a lossy format like ogg to lossless formats like FLAC or WAV. It goes the other way: FLAC (lossless compression) —> ogg/aac (lossy compression)

2. 5/5One slight setback

   After spending days trying to find the right media player for my iPhone, this one was the best I’ve used so far. The features alone greatly outshine the others I tried and overall make the experience more worthwhile. I do feel like, however, there needs to be an option to be able to export any songs I imported into the app so I can, lets say, transfer them to a new device in the future and whatnot. Other than that, I have no other complaints and I’d rate the app a 9/10

3. 4/5One Time Purchase, Imports iTunes

   No other one time purchase player is this sleek while having a 25 dollar lifetime purchase option AND a solid iTunes library import. It looks substantially nicer than the iTunes player due to balanced shiny reactive animations and color choices that dynamically recolor to match whatever song/album is in focus. The obligatory song-reactive animated bars show by default -take notes iTunes. Consistently will not allow me to add songs from albums I own to playlists, is more likely to fail to add them than add them. Other Issues: Imports playlists and albums successfully, caveat is you must rename the playlists presently. Imports music folders/files successfully. Zip files I wish auto-converted into folders with a tap when I am browsing for a song folder I just downloaded as a zip file from Bandcamp (legally purchased). Doesn’t work with Homepod, Homepod will kick the song off the speakers after about a minute. Sometimes won’t update the art of what song is playing, showing the art for a previous song instead. Does not loop individual tracks as smoothly as iTunes, possibly due to lack of iTunes’ integrated blending of tracks via transitions. Often has issue when adding individual or multiple songs where it won’t let me select them or won’t add them even when it says they are selected, forcing me to try multiple times until it arbitrarily works. Frequently freezes after editing a playlist forcing me to close and reopen the app. Will randomly invert playlists, has a button to invert them back but still annoying. Won’t play a 2-second audio file to completion, cuts it off 1 second early 100% of the time in normal use. Verdict: Looks really good, feels like a premium app. The developer should feel really good about their self. All the other app makers need to figure out it’s lifetime ad-free or nothing for playing purchased music.

4. 4/5Has Tons of Potential, Performance Hitches

   I really love the look and feel of the app. It feels professional but comfy and I actually want to use it and tweak the included EQ. Everything is very intuitive and clean. I love how convenient it is to import content. I just wish performance was more consistent especially when switching between library and player views. There seems to be a very noticeable hitch that takes a second or two to load even on a iPhone 15 pro. Overall has lots of potential and I'm looking forward to more performance improvements

5. 5/5Hidden Gem!

   I switched from Apple Music and mainly use locally stored music on my phone. I tried so many apps, Doppler, Evermusic, and so many others. None of them checked all my boxes except this Anywhere app! Great music sorting options, metadata editing, easy downloading. I even asked about other features that would be nice and they quickly updated the app with my requests! I don’t think I have even received a response from any other music player app when I asked a question. This is the best! Thanks
