Good sound
Need a way to increase db. Clear sound. Not sure what purchasing gets one.
Does not work with dsd
Does not work with dsd
Nice app, just needs a fix
Really liking the app but anyway you can make the player dark mode fit with the newer phones, mines shows a gray bar on the top where time and network are. And maybe allow us to reorder our button tabs, other than that it’s a nice music player.
Fix Needed
It seems there’s a paywall in the way to truly use this app. With many better options being free, there’s no reason to pay for this one. It’s not that special.
Update destroyed the player
The players deleted all the songs and won’t allow downloads. It makes it so you have to pay for their other app. What a scam! Update: Not a scam! The player works. The deletion of all the songs was because of the app settings being changed by what can only be presumed was because of the updating of the operating system on the device that has the app on it, without any notification of what changed.
Fantastic App!
I have been using this app for over 10 years and now I love it so much more! To my knowledge, it’s the ONLY way to truly enjoy full 192kHz/24 100% out from my iPhone 15 Pro. You can also customize the EQ with sliders that can be added in real time to further “tweak” the sound!!!! (potentially thousands of them). I have recently combined that with the excellent and well affordable Fiio K11 DAC ($129) and a pair of Sennheiser HD 660S2 headphones ($399) & 1 USB C - C wire ($9). Absolutely Incredible Sound!!!!!!!!!
Bug
I have an iPhone 8 and the app doesn’t go to the next song
Sort of but not great yet
I bought the Onkyo Hi Res player a while back, and it seems as though they’re just really not supporting it in English. Anyway, I reached out to the company and they directed me to a user manual in Japanese which I had to translate and even so it’s not useful because it doesn’t mention current iOS.
Great app, but broken no support
How is this app different than the one with the blue icon? I can’t get it to play anything faster than 48khz PCM on iPhone 17 ProMax. Sad, because I like the interface but this is a deal killer. Add to that a completely unresponsive vendor and it’s now no good to me. I’m opting for foobar, which can access my whole onkyo library on the phone
Good for hidef but a few problems
I used the player on android and have iphone. Went to HF player because itunes/music on apple is a mess to use. HF plays a goid variety of formats. Downsides are: several menus are in Japanese only. And there is no CarPlay that i can tell.
One UI improvement is needed
when you shuffle your playlist, the song randomly jumps to another playing. But the Playlist UI won't scroll up or down to the song now playing. Keep showing the last one. If you really want to see where the song is, you have to turn to the CD cover page and return back to playlist the there it is. Please update this playlist auto scroll up and down function to this app. It will be perfect!
It just doesn’t work
I have an iPhone 15 pro max and the DSD playback doesn’t work. Plus the software indicates it’s in beta. I want to request a refund (as I purchased the full version to play DSD) and their website is in an Asian language that I don’t even understand. Do not buy this pice of garbage.
Solid app
Had it for more than 4 years still use it pretty much daily.
Does not function as it used to
This player worked beautifully and easily till something changed a couple of years ago. It’s virtually useless now. Cannot locate HiRes songs loaded by iTunes, has become so convoluted that I quit using it. In the search for a replacement.
Can’t add new song to a playlist in alphabetical order without creating a new playlist
It would be immensely helpful if the playlist ‘edit function’ allowed a drag and drop song option, or a re-alphabetize song option as adding new songs places these songs at the bottom of the playlist with no way to organize the new songs alphabetically unless a new playlist is created. Other than this issue, the app is very decent
Calidad y Chord Mojo
Además de la excelente calidad que se puede reproducir y su excelente ecualizador, me es fundamental el hecho de que con el DAC Chord Mojo , me habilite a reproducir temas muestrearlos en 192.000 muestras/Seg y 24 bits de resolución .
Crash on 17.1
Always crash when you launch at 17.1, please fix it
Advertisements on the HF Player that we had to pay for?!
I started out using the free version years back that had advertisements. I paid for the HF version and was free from the ads. Now with this latest software update, we’re seeing ads on the paid HF version of the app? Why?!
Song Beginning Chopped Off
The beginning of (some) songs are chopped off by a split second. You can't hear the first drum beat! Other apps play these songs fine. Please fix.
All music missing
Used the app a few days before going camping…went to play music at camp and all my music is gone …just greyed out of the songs …any ideas?
So Far So Good.
Nice interface; uploading was seamless. Works well with Car Play MMRs.
No longer works
The app no longer sees song in Apple Music. Tech support is in Japanese, and as I don't speak that language, its pretty much unavailable. So basically, a dead app.
What Happened To Landscape Mode?

Good app-privacy policy????
The link to the privacy policy takes you to the policy. Unfortunately I don’t read Japanese. I had this app for years but quit using it since it hadn’t been updated in years. Now it’s time to 削除.
Hiccups with itunes library but works fine with Hres
I just used this for FLAC and DSF. With itunes library it is not playing good.
Update
I previously left a one star review that said I could no longer access my stored music on the app. I contacted Onkyo and they got back to me quickly with the solution. This is the best solution for playing hi- res music stored on your phone. Invaluable when you don’t have net access.
Worked great pre iPhone 15 pro
Please update this app to work with DSD playback via the new USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 of the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. This was a great app using the Lightning Camera kit to many different Audio DACs. Now it is only sending PCM over USB-C and not native DSD. Please update for those of us who pay for DSD functionality. Thanks!! (Will change my review back to 5 stars once that is fixed)
Did onkyo abandon us?
This is probably the best player in the Apple store by far. But we need an update please. Maybe fix the error message for iPod cause everytime I open the player the error message pops up
Great if you can access the EQ
Really liked this app until a few days ago when it was upgraded to 2.14. I rely heavily on the EQ for being able to enjoy listening to music on the usual subpar audio that comes in most vehicles. I drive two vehicles that I have fine tuned with EQ presets and ever since I updated the app I cannot switch between the two because when I flip the phone to view the EQ nothing happens. Yes, I’ve made sure my orientation lock isn’t on. Hopefully this gets resolved soon.
needs a new design
this app has great feature but i am hoping for an app redesign for ios 15. i hope it gets rid of the seperate area for music as in one for ipod and the other for hi res, one area for the music would make this app better. also a widget would be nice to just click the widget to access the last album that was playeed or even the eq. this app provides amazing soung quality but a few design tweeks and it will blow everyone else out of the water!
The Best
It’s the best available on the AppStore. Bravo 👏🏻.
Family sharing impossible
I bought this player a while ago but can’t share it with my family. Onkyo wants me to pay for this again! I just wanted to share this with others.
EQ request
Sound quality is excellent and it works with Dragonfly. I’d like the ability to adjust L and R EQ indepentently. I have modestly reduced high frequency perception in one ear, easily solved with EQ. Audioforge App has this but sound quality isn’t as good as Onkyo.
Don't upgrade to 2.8
Edit: 2.13 fixes the tabs issue. Edit: the biggest issue I have is the placement of the ad/currently playing song makes it virtually impossible to switch to the tab where I'd load a playlist. Fwiw I'm using an XS max. Accidentally upgraded to 2.8 and now there's a fugly ad that covers a row of album names. Back up your install, so you can roll back if you screw up. That said, aside from the ad, it's a decent app. It's a shame they don't make an iPad version
Needs an update
The sound quality of this app is amazing. And so is the functionality of it. But Onkyo needs to update this app in my opinion with combining hi res and iPod into one library as an option in the settings also Apple Watch support that you are also able to download a playlist to your watch if you decide to workout that would be great to move away from the Apple Music app. Also another great feature would be to have widgets for iOS 14 and iOS 15 that is coming up. The last feature that would really round it off is to allow MQA.flac and MQA.ALAC files on this app for decoding.
Does not support ODP on IPad Pro thru USB C
Although this app supports ODP on my iPhone and older IPad Pro with a lightning connector and an Apple CCK I cannot get it to export DSF files to a Mojo thru USB C of the current iPad Pro It just downgrades every DSF file to pcm even though the DOP switch is turned on I thought this might be hardware or iOS related but using another high res app , it works fine. I would welcome a solution
Unable to restore purchase and no English customer support
I’m unable to restore purchase of this app and going to app support leads to a foreign language website where I’m unable to submit a request because I don’t speak the appropriate language. More money wasted on something that I can no longer use as intended and paid for!
Love this app! Only one thing will make it better.
I love this app! I only wish it had the option to show the bitrate of the file. Like 24bit/96khz. I have many hdcds that we’re converted into flac using dBpoweramp and the hdcd codec. I would like to be able to see what bitrate the file is playing so I know its playing correctly! Thanks for such a great product! Edit: in the latest iOS version, the app stopped working with my 2016 Toyota Camry. It will not connect at all. Hope this gets fixed. Had to start using VOX instead.
I paid for this app, less than a year it’s free! Got ripped off!! What next!
Use to be great app, in less than a year it’s not so good anymore. NOW added ads!!!!! I paid for this less then a year ago because I did want ads. How about a refund! Would be a better app without the ads and higher number off starts. Guess they are okay being average.
Good but needs polish and bug fixes
The app has a great set of features and is easy to use. Volume seems lower than other apps with same source. The music stops as expected when removing Apple AirPods Pro from ears but has difficulty resuming once they are put back and you press the button on the pods to start playback again. Sometimes when trying to resume with the app in this situation it seems stuck. The play/pause button doesn’t update and toggle when pressed and the app must be force closed and reopened to resume playback. iPhone 11 Pro Max all updates installed.
Great App; please add iPad support!
Best music player APP for iOS. If they would make an iPad version and Continue to support the APP they would have a grateful throng of dedicated followers.
buyer beware
If you are not using itunes (i.e. you have moved to music) and you are planning to load a large number of flac or other uncompressed music files look for other players. If you do not not have a large iCloud drive to hold the fat uncompressed flac files then look for another player. Finally, if you are looking for application support then look for another player. I have found no e-mail address, no iphone and no FAQs for the app. The instructions to transfer files into your iphone assume that you have itunes. I guess Onkyo realized that music was quite different from itunes and added a file browser to download stuff from the iCloud drive. This works – but only partially. After a few downloads the application ceases to download and the only way to continue is to restart the iphone. When files are not completely downloaded or they cease to respond the app aborts. I do appreciate a few things particularly the possibility to see music organized by either composer or genre. And then, of course, you must be sure to have organized your metadata correctly.
Almost there, HD version on iPad needed
I’m a user of Audioquest dragonfly and ifi iDSD black label series. If you have a DAC like that can be used on iPhone or iPad, this is the right app that has the most consistent DoP function you need to unlock the full potential of your device. That is the reason I choose to pay for this app over some of other free alternatives out there. The user experience on my phone is just among the best. However, Dear Onkyo developer and PM, I think it is time for you to consider adding an upscaled HD version of this app to iPad. The UI is just horrible to use on iPad, especially on 12.9in pro version when it won’t work with split windows. It just doesn’t scale very well and doesn’t turn to landscape view with the default upscale on iPad OS. You know if you connect a DAC on an iPad, it is very inconvenient to use a app without a landscape view. Hope this give you an idea what to work with. Many THANKS
Not a good regular music player
Fine if you want to play Hi-Res music, I guess, but too flaky to use as a normal daily music player. This app doesn’t play well with (non-Onkyo, probably) bluetooth headphones. Can pause music but can’t un-pause....even from the lock screen or Control Centre and forgets which track was playing and starts playing back from a few songs ago. I prefer playing music on this app because it’s EQ features are better than the built in Music app but find it fails on basic operation.
Good app but needs EQ improvement
I bought this for the EQ and high-resolution audio playback features. I think the EQ needs some improvement. Attempting to make a custom EQ on a smartphone is infuriating. You can’t be precise with a finger or thumb, once you let go of your perfect position it moves. It would be much better if you could simply type in X Hz into a box and specify + or - however many dBs for each added point. Also I don’t like the fact that the EQ attempts to curve out each plot point. I would like an option to reduce its intensity so that it effects my EQ less, as sometimes the added curve makes the resultant response worse. Even better if you could add the ability to get rid of the curve altogether, that would be even better.
Nice clean interface
I'm a big onkyo fan. This app is nice and clean, works well. I really, really wish it would support carplay. Please onkyo, please add carplay support!!!
waste of money
was working for hi-res then crashing and unplayable. can sync but won’t play. huge bug. i will try another app
Siri issues.
I ask Siri to play music and it pauses. I ask Siri to pause music and it plays. Can you sort it out, please?
Very frustrating
I don’t have an existing his res music library so I purchased a 16-bit FLAC album via the Onkyo website. I then used the app to download the album which just took forever. Not only that but several of the tracks are still not downloaded to my phone and seemingly will never be. I wouldn’t recommend this app in its current form.
Good BUT...
I bought this Onkyo HiFi Player and loved it so much. However, I have some issues with it. I have a big flac and dsd library. I sorted everything with folders. Every playlist folder has many songs in it. But the problem is that when I import them to the player it shows all the songs in one list and don't seperate them by folder. So I cannot save each folder as a playlist :( Could you guys add a "folder view" to the app? Also make it easy to add songs to a playlist (maybe selecting songs to add a playlists or selecting a whole folder to add a playlist). Also another thing, I decided to change the metatag of music files. So I changed the album tag for each song to make them belong to different playlists (like, song a's album is dance music and song b's album tag is slow music...). But this was hifi player ended up showing same album art for every song :(
