About Music

Simple Player - that is what the Music app should have been called. Simple is exactly what it is. Connect your device to a computer and you can drag files to your Music folder. Insert an SD card containing music files and the app will access them from there. Of course you can also download music with Morph browser, direct to the Music folder. They may be from a free site like Jamendo or be purchased from a pay site.

Whichever way you choose, the album art will be grabbed automatically and the tracks will sort themselves as the app database builds.

As you would expect, you can play just one track, shuffle the order or play in sequence. Building playlists is easy. Sound output can be blasted to speakers via Bluetooth or Old Skool via the headphone port.

Very good app. Because I have my playlists already organized in folders, I miss a folder based view.

Swipe a track left to add to a playlist then swipe right while in the playlist view to delete. Works as expected for basic music listening.
