MusicStreamer Reviews
MusicStreamer - Sensational!
I rarely, if ever, take the time to review apps. But this one absolutely deserves a review. This app is amazing! I was looking for a streamlined and high-performing app that would finally allow me to stream my 140+ GB music library from my iCloud Drive. This app does exactly that. And it does it in a super impressive way: importing the library was completely seamless, the app has remained stable and reliable to this day, it can play everything instantly, and you can scroll smoothly through the entire 140 GB library, including album art, etc. Plus, it has all sorts of great additional features like an EQ, playlist editing, a search function, and design customization. And the best part: the developer only charges a one-time fee of 9.90 for this truly sensational app. No subscription, no monthly fees, no rip-off. I'm absolutely thrilled. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

MusicStreamer - Clever Music Streaming App
My review is similar to others - I am so glad I found this. I have been using the app for only a few days, but Im so impressed. Well thought through, uncluttered UI, useful quick start, and finds and connects to music library locations on home network including servers and USBs. Good error trapping and its fast to index. You can cast to appropriate renderers (Linn, Mede8er, Google Audio, for me). My libraries are mostly flac files (>150,000) but there are some mp3s and proprietary formats scattered around and none has presented a problem thus far. In terms of connectivity, this app reminds me of the Goodreader PDF manager. I can now tidy up and delete all the apps that promised much but dont work one way or another. Thank you so much, Stratospherix!

MusicStreamer - Essential App from Essential Publisher
This app was essential years ago. The fact it is still getting updated is incredible. The ability to save 3 different 10-band EQ settings plus still having the multiple presets just made it better when I didnt think it was possible. The real star of this app though is the ability to connect directly to my NAS and stream without taking up phone storage. If you want to play offline, a simple click will download tracks, albums, playlists and its just as easy to remove to free storage. Stratospherix makes 2 of the most powerful apps on my phone and I will never be without them. Nice job and thank you!

MusicStreamer - The music player app you have been waiting for
If you, like I have, been compiling a disk full of music for a decades and want something that plays on all your devices has easy download for offline and easy album art update, and web search right from the app and doesnt cost a bunch. Music streamer is perfect. Havent enjoyed a music app this much since Winamp! Also it will discover 20k files pretty quickly and did a great job of that. I highly recommend apps from this developer.

MusicStreamer - Superb App - So Glad I Found It!
To start with, Im just going to quote from the developers own description since its better worded than anything I was going to write: "Do you have a music collection with thousands of files on your PC, Mac, Network Drive or Time Capsule? Now you can play that music directly on your iPad / iPhone without syncing. MusicStreamer will scan your music, display beautiful album artwork and is a joy to use." I couldnt agree more! The app elegantly solves the problem of getting my several thousand song files located on a NAS drive over to my iPad, where i can then connect to Bluetooth speaker or headphone. You can filter by artist, album, genre, set up playlists, and play tracks sequentially or randomly. The app connect to my drive with no problem and is a breeze to us. Also, I had one question and received a detailed personal response with all the answers I was looking for. I can go into my back room wood shop and have all my music coming in on my nice headphones. Its a beautiful thing!

MusicStreamer - Epic for NAS collections in media servers!
After searching for an app that would enable me to stream my collection of backed up albums on my mybook live, I stumbled upon this beauty! Now I can stream my music and create playlists as though its my own Spotify premium account! Highly recommended and definitely worth it.

MusicStreamer - Simply the Best
MusicStreamer is far ahead of any other streamer, and continues to improve. It handles digital collections in the tens of thousands with ease, and is rock solid. One can stream from a NAS drive or attached SSD, or if you have the space download tracks for off-line playback. MusicStreamer wirelessly sends to any Bluetooth/ AirPlay input, such an AV controller or enabled amp. Adding/ removing/ reordering of playlists and searching on the fly works like a dream. Support, although rarely needed, is also top quality and fast. The app is light years ahead of clunky interfaces such as BlueSound, and easily outperforms even Sonos software. Highly recommended.

MusicStreamer - Very Good Streamer
Does what I want very efficiently. It has indexed all my thousands of music files by album and artist from my basic Western Digital NAS onto the app interface. I can stream using my iPhone the music to my WiiM devices. Nice! Very Nice! Thanks to the developers this is a simple interface which is easy to use.

MusicStreamer - The Best Music Player on the App Store
Ive used this for many years and its one of those apps that just works no matter what you throw at it. It never misbehaves, never freezes and plays everything. My music library is on a NAS and is a mixture of every format available. Music Streamer plays everything without a hiccup!

MusicStreamer - Finally!
Brilliant app that faultlessly plays my CD collection (ripped to FLAC & stored on a thumb drive on my wireless router). Have tried multiple iOS DLNS/uPNP streamer apps and this is the only one that works faultlessly - on both my iPhone and iPad. It reads tags accurately, displays album art and sounds great. Delighted. A YEAR LATER It's now over a year since getting this app and still discovering great new features. Just superb.

MusicStreamer - Amazing
Thank you, so good I deleted the Apple Music app from my phone. My music how I want it, so easy to just download the music I want to my phone for offline playing while Im out at work. You dont know just how happy this app has made me, well worth every penny paid.

MusicStreamer - Easily the best streamer on IOS
MusicStreamer is that rare app which is better than anything else available, and yet continues to improve. Ive been using this for years now, and each iteration adds something worthwhile. At the time of writing, Song view makes it easier to find improperly tagged tracks in a vast collection. Speaking of which, MusicStreamer handles collections in the tens of thousands with ease, and is rock solid. I stream from a NAS drive, attached to my router in my home office, wirelessly to a Bluetooth input to my AV unit in my lounge, all controlled from my iPad. Adding/ removing/ searching on the fly works like a dream. So this is an app that is working with six different manufacturers hardware at the same time, and rarely falling over. Marvellous.

MusicStreamer - Excellent
There are many apps which promise much and deliver little and are deleted within a few minutes in some cases. This brilliant app is not one of those. It simply delivers an excellent user interface and most importantly user experience and has allowed me to rediscover all of my CD collection after years of neglect. Buying this app has prompted me to take the final step in dispensing with physical CDs. I could go on but enough said. Get the app. Ps For those that might say why not use iTunes, the answer is that iTunes on my iPad drove me crazy with random reorganisation of tracks, missing tracks etc. I was not willing to invest time is a sub-standard app.

MusicStreamer - Must Have!
If you have music on your computer, Drive or NAS buy this app! In my case I stream my iTunes library via by airplay much easier than via home sharing and iOS music app.

MusicStreamer - Potential Alternative to Apple Music
For everyone who has a working NAS(smb) server, this app has everything a music player should have. -ID3 Tags are properly used. -Gapless playback is working excellent. -Playlists in m3u can be read by basically every music player, so sharing playlists among devices are possible, even though a bit handy. -Download function as well as offline playback works good. -The lossless .flac format is supported, which is a big plus. Apple music and iTunes can't handle this format which will make a decoder (ffmpeg and libmp3lame for example) necessary. This is really nice. -The lite version of the app is a good way to check if your NAS server is appropriately set up. If you don't have any trouble with the lite version, its pretty likely that you wont have any with the full version. If so: Check your setup. In summary, I really like that app.

MusicStreamer - Fantastic App
I spent ages looking for a way to stream 5000 albums from a NAS to AirPlay and Chromecast via a mobile device. This app met all the requirement with elegant simplicity and reliability. Scanning the library was amazingly fast. All this for a reasonable price. Well done.

MusicStreamer The Best App of It's Kind
Having set up a Plex server and SMB server on a Raspberry Pi, I was determined to find an app that allows both streaming from the smb share, as well as providing the ability to grab missing art, etc. This app does it all well, and IMO, it's not only the best app in the App Store, there's (sadly) nothing even close to being as polished and functional in the Play store for Android (there's an opportunity there). Well worth the money!

MusicStreamer is Like iTunes Without the Fluff and Fuss
A nice straightener interface that deals easily with the music I've moved onto my NAS. It queues and plays well, and changes/adjustments are intuitive. No 'extra' stuff in the way, and the interface is consistent between my iPhone and my iPad. Supports multiple libraries in different storage locations so my wife and I can see and play each other's tracks without having to duplicate them redundantly.

MusicStreamer - Exactly what I was Looking For!
Scans my 10'000+ songs on a Raspberry Pi Samba share in 10 minutes (iPad 2019). Search for albums, artists, titles in milliseconds. Make, manage and export playlists. Look at CD covers in reasonable size. What else is needed to listen to your favorite music?

MusicStreamer - Love This App
Needed a music player that would free me from iTunes and allow me to stream from my music library on a NAS and this app does the job perfectly and plays flac files! Allows you to download specific tracks or albums to the iPad for offline listening. Easy set up. Playlists, queuing, search, filter, everything I need with complete control. Just great.
