Next Player is a clean, smooth video player with a modern UI and stable playback. One feature that would make it much better is a custom skip duration option (up to 90 seconds). I watch a lot of anime, and being able to skip intros easily (usually around 60–90s) would make a big difference. Fixed skip intervals just aren’t flexible enough for this. Adding a customizable skip setting would make playback much more convenient for regular viewers. Hope this gets added soon.

Minimal and best video player for android. It's like VLC with one of the best UI.

This ... Thing just Deleted my videos Without my Confirmation Permanently. And with no possibility for recovery. There was No Recycle Bin or any other Folder for Deleted files. NOTHING. I even tried to find them with several types of Recovery-Apps to no use. They are Just GONE. DON'T USE THIS APP.

The update broke the app...the app ui for volume overlaps with the phone app and if your watching something with subtitles the video progress bar overlaps with it when you touch the screen hiding it...don't fix something isn't broken it just makes things iller than improve

Great minimal UI, but a major issue: it uses a separate audio stream that bypasses system effects (DSP, Dolby, etc.). This breaks audio enhancements I rely on. Please add an option to choose the audio stream and default it to music. Until then, I’m using another player.

After too many updates this app is still unstable. If one bug fixed some other feature stop working. For instance, Picture-in-picture mode was fine earlier but with new update after adding search, multi-select and all that this mode is annoying and never works. You can't use touch in this mode. Some other bugs I found are following: - Showing total time over folder icon that is useless. - Always need to refresh every time, to fetch for new videos. It should be auto. - Last played is annoying.

This is a good video player, but we can't play audios. I also confused that how can I bring subtitle in a video.
