  1. 5/5Best App I’ve Purchased

    My love for music (particularly heavy metal) is to the point of obsession. I’m always listening to music, building up my own collection with classics and new releases, or keeping my finger on the pulse of what my friends and the larger music community are listening to. Marvis Pro gives me all of the resources I could imagine to streamline these processes. With a little fidgeting, I was able to create a “radio station” that constantly pulls 25% from my personal library, and 75% from other playlists, such as Apple’s “Breaking Metal,” which is a good way to find new music. That’s just scratching the tip of the iceberg. I can’t wait to jump back in and figure out similar tricks for other circumstances. For example, I’m already planning on making similar stations that mix my tastes with those of friends and family, which may make long car rides a little easier! On top of that, as someone who spends a lot of time in music streaming apps, the amount of customization options are fantastic. Being able to move every section around, enlarge, shrink, or collapse various images, and even customize the background itself with a load of options was a ton of fun and looks great! Further, having everything I could want (all playlists, albums, artists, songs, custom stations, etc) on one screen is something I can’t imagine ever going back from. I just love this app. Well worth the price. Best app on the store, in my opinion.

  2. 5/5My new favorite

    I've been using another music app for years, and to be honest, it's been great, and I have been (and am) very happy with it, and with its developer. And yet, I have to be honest, Marvis has completely blown me away by being all that and more. It is very nearly everything I've ever wanted, or even imagined wanting. With apologies to my other music app, Marvis has stolen my heart away. Marvis's developer has been outstandingly responsive, working with me to help me understand all of its nuances and taking time to understand how I use it, and what I'm looking for in a music app. I didn't really "get" all that Marvis is capable of at first, and his attention to my concerns really made a world of difference in helping me get the most out of it and understand what it is capable of. I'm very grateful for that. The one thing that stopped me, especially at first, from making a wholesale switch to Marvis was the lack of support for iPad. In my view, that's really a must-have. There is a beta that does support iPad, and that's what I've been using. Once that's generally available, honestly, this will be the new standard-bearer, as far as I'm concerned.

  3. 4/5It’s OK if you really, really want ultimate customization

    I bought this app because I saw it was recommended as a replacement for the stock Apple Music app. I gave it a try and it’s OK. The app is really well made. There are lots of customization options and a lot of meta data available with this app. I would have kept this app if there weren’t some glaring issues. The app works fine but you have to change the app player in the settings if you want the music to stop playing when you force close the app. Also, the notification/lock screen widget won’t open the Mavis Pro app. It will open the Apple Music app. You can change the settings so that the Mavis Pro app opens but you have to sacrifice other settings, reliability, etc. Another deal breaker: no CarPlay app! I listen to my music in the car a lot. You have to make a handful of other sacrifices when using this app and when changing certain settings. That might not be an issue for some people but it is for me. It’s not the developer’s fault. I understand iOS has certain limitations. I’m not gonna request a refund because I want to support the app developer. I’ll maybe re-download the app in the future but for now, if the stock Apple Music app is working for you just fine, I don’t recommend this app. The stock Apple Music app will get the job done for most people. If you really, really want and need way, way more customization options and absolutely need almost total and complete control over your music library, get this app. This app is really well made and very polished. I just don’t need this level of control over my music library. Keep up the good work though!

  4. 5/5Closest app I know of to the original iPod music app

    Unlike Apple’s current music player app and other apps that strive to emulate it, this app shows the number of songs played in a playlist along with the total number of songs. This allows the number of remaining songs to be easily calculated. This capability helps ensure that songs are not deleted or repeated, which has been a common problem with recent versions of Apple’s music app since IOS 8, which this app successfully avoids. This app also shows relatively large album art on its screen compared to more recent Apple Music player app versions. Cesium used to be my third party music player of choice up until its recent versions eliminated the ability to see the list of upcoming songs, thereby eliminating the capability of determining if songs have been skipped or repeated. Mavis is now my music player app of choice and I highly recommend it for those who long for the simplicity of the original iPod music player, which can no longer be obtained from Apple.

  5. 5/5Song title blank in mini-player, frequent pausing

    This app is hands down the best music player available in the amount of customization it offers. I’ve tried many over the years and only found one other that was as sophisticated until the developer gave up on it (Tuneshell). I never understood why Apple didn’t put more effort into the stock music app and iTunes given how the iPod/iPhone revived the nearly dead company, but even more baffling is their willingness to maintain complete control of the API and hamstring third party app development while refusing to invest in their own quality music products. That being said, this latest update seems to have added a minor bug that removed the song title from the mini player and only shows the album cover in the lower right corner. Not a huge problem but one that makes it difficult to know what is currently playing when browsing the queue. I am definitely getting the startup delay you mentioned with long lists. I currently have 20,000 total songs loaded and your advisory on this issue was one reason I put off migrating to iOS 13 as long as I did, but now the song pauses briefly every 20 seconds or so. This is an unfortunate deal-breaker for me and one I dearly hope will be fixed soon. Marvis has been a stellar product and I can only hope it withstands Apple’s control-freak attitude towards third party apps in the future. Update: Thanks for the quick and helpful response! Great customer support is like gold nowadays in the digital world.
