Comments on Samba Network Music Player for Android

★★★★★ Account Alias: George Washington · Aug 27, 2026

Excellent SAMBA connection. Tried other music players and either they won't connect to other computers on the network, or have difficulty finding the Samba share and staying connected. This App does a great job on Samba connections.

★★★★★ Jack Grubbs · Jan 6, 2025

Needed this for my Android phone. Found it after trying different media server setups and trying other android media players. No streaming service needed on windows where my music resides. Also, no need to add windows features like smb1 or the legacy Windows Media Player! It's quick to find files on my private network and quickly scans full directories to create playlists. Haven't encountered a single issue, and it works just like it should!

★★★★☆ Andy S · Jun 5, 2023

I am grateful this works to play music from my NAS, so I paid for no ads. But the player is lacking some basic features, or they are hidden. The most important is the ability to play all tracks in a genre randomly. Currently, you have to either create a playlist (tedious as I currently have over 30k songs across 4,556 folders) or navigate to a folder and play from there without any subfolders included. Genre detection would be great too. Love the metal support in GP store screenshots!

★☆☆☆☆ Drew Riley · May 28, 2026

No sound. It did find my network share but when I select any mp3, no sound . Phone speaker or Bluetooth. Unbelievably poor QA here. Vibe coded?

★★☆☆☆ David Farley · Jun 24, 2026

I thought this might be perfect for my needs but sadly not. Once I open an album or track I cannot find a way to go back through my folders so in order to choose a different album or track to play from my NAS I have to select bookmark to acces the main server conection and navigate back down the folder list.

★★☆☆☆ Jet · Nov 26, 2025

Overall a nice player once you figure it out. But but but the very annoying pause or complete lockup of the player most times when you change a song or sometimes when you move the slider. Makes this player unusable at times. Just can't figure it out for me, it's broken
