Folder viewer in library (not the files view) is a critical one for me as the library is on NAS not mapped to a drive. I do not get to see this in free version. I am able to view that from Foobar on desktop as well as competitors apps. Since I first tried this App and liked every other feature I wanted to buy it help the developer, however, the developer is non-responsive. Tried contacting him by email, community connect... App isn't updated since 2016 so don't know is he still active?

Great app everything is smooth even at realtime refresh rate. Though I do hope they have support for widescreen (ie. 18.5:9 etc) and a more minimal UI. Current UI is a bit cluttered. Though seeing the last update is on 2016 I doubt it's gonna change.

I am now smarter and lazier. After following that simple tutorial, I can now remotely: View my foo playlists, view which song is playing in real time, scrub through the song, and REMOTELY CONTROL FOO WITH THE NOTIFICATION WIDGET!! This is great for gaming as I now don't need to switch windows to change playlists! I love being a nerd and fiddling with stuff like this. *evil laugh* Also the user interface is snappy and thoughtfully designed 🦊

Compared to the desktop version, foobar2000 for android is missing a lot of features I rely on. I can't shuffle playlists and then save the order. I can't select multiple folders to add to a playlist. I can't select multiple songs to move or add to a playlist. It's far less customizable and versatile than the desktop version.

Exellent, and happy. Very snappy. no lags at all. Good if dsp settings and playlist management included. In the age of sonos, and expensive network streaming devices, I can go back to old foobar with my favourite DAC, ESS Sabre ! Lovely

The best Foobar controller I've encountered and have been using for the past year. However it appears development have stopped, and certain parts of the app is still very buggy, like the playlist creator.
