Comments on Odyssey Music Player for Android

★★★★★ Sean Shaffer · Feb 8, 2019

Please add option to exclude audio files that are less than a user-specified length of time, such as less than 60 seconds. All of my Ringtones are in the music list, and I don't want to see or play them.

★★★★★ A Google user · Dec 19, 2016

Nice Small and functional player. Best of all, it allows to browse and play directly from file system. Well done!

★★★★★ A Google user · May 18, 2017

Gapless, open source, small fast and light, excellent music player

★☆☆☆☆ Hùng CL · Feb 9, 2018

Thanks for your response. But I would like old functionalities. The new ones which I dislike are: (1) New version plays random files in different folders. Old version played files only within folder I tapped the first file. (2) While one file is being played, I need to double tap other file to make it play. And that results in 2 same files in current playlist. (3) Those 2 are weird features. I use this app only because it doesn't change my lock screen wallpaper. My Sony Music app works like a normal player. The only thing I don't like about the Sony Music app is: it changes my lock screen wallpaper while playing files. If you're not supporting normal behaviors (like most players) I would keep 1 star and find new app. I'm sorry.

I want to like this, but have to find something else. It has 'queues', 'playlists', & 'bookmarks' What it thinks each is different from what you think it is. Simply adding a song to a playlist is not intuitive and has unnecessary steps. Removing also. I don't know what 'bookmarks' are. There is only a FAQ for instructions and that doesn't take you far.

★☆☆☆☆ Frankie Wren · Nov 2, 2018

Sadly shuffle functionality is just a pipe dream and a lie. This app shuffles whatever album a given track is from, rather than shuffling the playlist like it should. The rest of the app is 10/10, just brought down by this bizarre issue. To repeat: the app cannot shuffle a playlist. It will repeat random songs and occasionally bug out altogether. This is not an app you can use to listen to your music smoothly, it has MAJOR technical issues preventing smooth playback.
