Music Folder Player 5.2.1
It offers a whole array of music players that you can check out. One of them is Music Folder Player. It sports a really cute UI and has some features, but unfortunately some of the basic tools are only available in the premium version or in exchange for a donation.
Cute UI with plenty of features at hand
It's always nice to launch a newly installed app and see that it comes with a tutorial, showing new users all the neat things that they can do. Unfortunately, Music Folder Player only has some tips on the main screen but that can be a good thing since the size of the app is reduced in that way.
It doesn't use material design, but it does have a side menu with access to all sort of features and sections. It lacks a settings menu, but all changes that you can do to the app are made available in the menu on the left side of the screen.
Listen to your favorite music
The first thing that you need to do after launching the app is to browse your internal memory to find music files. The app automatically scans your device and retrieves folders in which it can find audio files. It even displays the number of songs that it detected.
Batch selection is available, so you can add multiple songs to a playlist at once, without wasting time by doing it individually. It also has the option of using the search bar and typing in the name of the song or the artist.
More features
The app comes with controls in the notification bar, lock screen and on the home screen. All controls come in bright colors and it even finds album art inside your phone or on the internet.
You have the option to enable the player fullscreen, automatically play songs when the headset is plugged, keep the notification on for 5 minutes after the music is paused. It comes with multiple themes that you can check out and two sets of controls. It has a sleep timer, you can set the app to automatically close after a number of minutes.
It comes with an equalizer and a shake feature that skips to the next song when you shake your phone. However, these two features are only available if you purchase the full version. Purchases are made in the form of a donation, sums vary between 1.09$ and 7.69$.
