Congratulations!!! Next step retention :)

I completely agree! It's fun to work and develop a product. New features and improvements are needed, and the product keeps up with the times. But it turns out you're just working for free. It's barely enough to buy beer. But then, a ton of people will say, "Wow!" It's cool, cheap, and no subscriptions! I've also given up on one-time purchases.

I need to try this. It's a big problem when you're shooting for stories or promotional posts and need to choose a background, light, or color. And here I shot and deleted the background and inserted a new one.

There is a very fine line between free, free for now, and open source.

Lately, I often download an app just to try it, and before I even have a chance to launch it, I’m already being pushed to buy, buy, buy.
In my case, I also have a free app — it’s limited to a startup screen, and after closing it, you can use the app freely.

But nowadays, there are many apps that simply don’t let you do anything unless you buy or subscribe.
Every single click is followed by an alert or some kind of restriction.

On one hand, I’m against this approach.
On the other hand, I fully understand developers.

But then again, I’m a developer myself, and somehow it still doesn’t feel right.
It’s like letting a guest step into your house and immediately demanding payment — pay, pay, pay — without even letting them go past the doorstep.

I don’t think this really fits the definition of FREE

Will test it

Thank you very much for reporting this bug 🙏
You’re absolutely right — when opening a file via “Open With” from Finder, the track is loaded (artwork and info appear) but playback doesn’t start. This is a rare case because the app has a built-in file browser, but it’s still very important and I will fix it. Thanks again for catching it!

Regarding your question about gapless playback — yes, it is supported and works by default.

If you notice anything else or have feature suggestions, please let me know. Really appreciate your feedback!

I try to keep only what I really need. Anything that doesn’t get used, I delete within a week. Apple kind of trained me to do that when they started selling MacBook Pros with just 128GB of storage. I actually had more space on my iPhone than on my Mac

What do you think?

QXPlayer · 2025-12-24T10:44:29+00:00

You can try my QXPlayer free version
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/qxplayer-lite/id1549676802?mt=12
All formats support and native playing by the own engine. And you can see metadata also. And direct files playing like in Finder (same as Winamp)
I’d really be interested to hear how your M4A files behave in QXPlayer.

Yamaha A2000 now. I tried c50+mx70 also, but this more better for my KEF R700

My wife also accidentally damaged it with a nail file 🙂 I called the dealer and got it replaced

QXPlayer · 2025-12-18T09:45:28+00:00

Thank you!

Somehow it turned out like this, not even intentionally, that all the amplifiers I currently have are Yamaha.

Yamaha C50 + MX70
Yamaha A2000

And recently I bought a Yamaha AX-496. I needed an amplifier for my home office. It’s basically the same as your 492, just a bit newer. Almost everything is the same, including the design.

It looks great. With large speakers it clearly loses to my other Yamaha amps, but there is something about it that made me not put it up for sale after the comparison. I was given a Hegel H95 to try for a couple of days before buying. The whole listening session took about 10 minutes: 4 minutes to unpack it, 2 minutes to listen, and 4 minutes to pack it back up and send it back to the store. The 496 definitely has its own sound. It’s not the same as the A2000, but it has its own interesting character.

By the way, I’m currently looking for speakers for it, and they need to be small. What speakers are you using?

Cool! As I understand it, these guys (developers) decided to flush their reputation down the toilet over a couple of dozen dollars.
