Comments on Poweramp Music Player for Android

★★★★★ Azhagesan Dhanabal · Jun 25, 2026
Request. I need play once and move to next track option like in neuron music player 1■→.
★★★★☆ Nithunkumar K S · Feb 17, 2026
A new update disabled music library scanning on my SD Card by freezing the process. My music files are reachable through other music players and file explorers. Please help me.
★★★★☆ Bryxll Baranda · Aug 28, 2026
I was previously using musicale before this app. After some time I bought it and loved it. There are a few things I missed from musicale tho such as multiple saved queues and the ability to only play a specific part of a song on repeat. Would work great since this app also leans heavy with EQ'ing One thing that annoys me tho is adding stuff to playlists and having to always re sort them since it won't sort properly. It shouldn't be the default imo it's annoying. Add these and 5 stars from me.
★★★★★ Shrike · Aug 28, 2026
The undisputed king of local audio players. The 10-band graphic/parametric EQ, Hi-Res output engine, and custom DSP offer audiophile-grade control that easily outperforms standard players like Pulsar or Musicale. Cons: The UI skin system feels overly complex for casual users. Suggestions for Devs: Add cloud/NAS streaming (WebDAV/SMB) and seamless lyric-sync editing. Modernize default skins to reach true perfection!
★★★★★ Dolly Sunani · Aug 28, 2026
I recently purchased the full version and honestly one of the best music player I have ever seen 🤑🤑🤩🤩🤩🥳
★☆☆☆☆ Michael P. · Feb 17, 2026
Having purchased the App a couple of weeks ago, at first it was okay with my ear pods, but now it continually crashes, my pods work well with other Apps. I cannot even play one full tune, waste of money
★★☆☆☆ rvink5 · Apr 25, 2026
Longtime power amp user. The repeat does not work on any type file and settings are accordingly. This is really annoying. Update: nothing is fixing it, repeat does not work at all for any type of formats.
★★☆☆☆ Charles Beckmann · Apr 23, 2026
Been a paid user for years, but I can't make power amp work for me. The audio config options are great, but can't make up for a UI/UX that is nothing short of deranged. Ex: I search for "Imagine" by Lennon, find it, then tap to play. What plays next though? Power amp gives only 2 options: "filtered", which is all the other songs in my library with the word "imagine" in them, or "all", which is every one of the 80,000+ songs on my phone, in alphabetical order. Both of these are worthless.
★☆☆☆☆ PREM KUMAR RAVI · Nov 4, 2026
Why reduced some advanced version in power amp recent days. First it has much more options and lyrics also we cannot be able to ac in this lyrics screen waste. We are going to build new software for music.
★☆☆☆☆ Atmostfear 13 · Nov 3, 2026
Suddenly not working and cannot recognize my sd card or internal storage on my hi by r4, I want to use this player because of the good quality of its EQ, but it got error now, I don't do anything and it crashes. Unistalled.
