2025-01-03 | fair. I got it to replace Media Player which was a disaster. I had used Black Pi for a while, but that was such a pain to sync and import new media. media monkey is much easier to use, but I still haven't figured out a way to effectively sync multiple devices and I wish it had more functionality on counting track usage etc | ||
2024-12-16 | Great app, a great way to keep your library in order and playing it as well. It's very robust and takes a little bit of work to understand how things work so it does take a bit of time to learn. I've purchased the pro version as it's a complete software for my music library. The sync to devices could be easier, but I'm very happy with it. | ||
2024-11-13 | Very good for how I use it. Easy to play a mix based on your personal song ratings, then on the fly switch to a playing song's album, or to see/jump to other of that artist's albums or songs you have on your device. Very easy to search/store song lyrics while a song is playing too. It's not nearly as easy to enter/modify key MP3 file song properties though (genre, song title, year, etc.), hence my not giving 5 stars. | ||
2024-10-31 | As a music player, it is great, EXCEPT the app starts playing the music when you use your Bluetooth earphones, and YOU DIDN'T WANT IT TO! The developer's words to my question about a "stop" button were: "We didn't bother with a 'Stop' button since you can just pause music to the same effect.' Uh, except it does not stay paused until you tell it to play. Touching any button on the ear plugs or headset can result in the music playing. If I find a better app, I will be switching. | ||
2024-09-09 | I like the app and I got the pro version but there are a few things that are annoying. Like if you get more music and go to add it to a playlist. It's a pain because it will add everything and won't tell you if you already have a song in the playlist. Spotify has this feature and it's really convient Also, you can't search for songs in a playlist, if you search a song it will search all your songs and not just the ones in the playlist :( If you guys add these features I'll increase my rating | ||
2024-07-29 | I have used this app probably 8yr and it keeps working great. I fully recommend the paid version to take advantage of the wireless sync (the hard wired sync is something they still have not figured out,it is pretty spotty and it tends to mess up your library). This is the only reason why I did not give them 5 stars. | ||
2024-07-27 | Best app of this kind I've had so far, it does a lot of different things and still figuring it out. From what I get last FM doesn't handle you tube music, so that part of it kind of sucks. Set it to start playing as soon as it hooks up to Bluetooth and no longer punching buttons when I get in the car or turn on the boom box, just turn it up! | ||
2024-07-24 | So close to a 5. First, it has some albums on there that done exist. But there's also no audio. They are also just titled letters. One is A, the next is B, then C. Not the end of the world, but why are they there? Also, how can we not change artwork yet? That should have been added a decade ago. I love that it can look up that artwork and add it. Nice and simple. Except it doesn't always work, and I could just add it manually, but apparently we aren't allowed to do that because reasons. | ||
2024-06-27 | I wish that there was a printable instruction manual that described how to operate mediamonkey pro. I have had zero luck with the forum and pretty disappointed with direct contact with mediamonkey. On the positive side, if the app can do all it advertises it can. It would truly be awsome. Maybe someday I'll be able to realize that. | ||
2024-05-31 | Don't even think about syncing with a cable! (I cannot use WiFi because I must use a VPN.) I have Media Monkey Gold. Days of work and headaches and I'm ready to start all over somewhere else. It absolutely won't sync playlists. Ok, so I'll use genre. But even though I tell it to use all genre, most of the time it doesn't. I change a primary tag, re-sync and nope. Deleting by hand sometimes does it. I've got many hundreds of song files. Why is it so hard?! |
