    No ReplayGain
    How does a music player that has been around this long, and is aimed at people with large music collections and audio enthusiasts, still not have ReplayGain support? It's hard to believe. Show more

    Such a weird app
    You can NEVER delete this app from your macbook.

    Pay to try
    More than half the preferences were greyed out (unless you sign up for the premium…). Merely from an aesthetic perspective, that just rubbed me all sorts of wrong ways. You have to earn my dough. I want a conversation before a date. If not hanging out, kickin’ it… pssh. Nah, I’m good…. I am MORE than happy to pay for software that is worth my money. And, I was very much looking forward to trying this app out per “Hi-Res,” FLAC, minimalism interface, clean UI, etc. I do not like subscription based software right now, nor have I ever. I’ll stick with Clementine and Quod Libet and my dignity. Nice logo though, is that where the subscription money goes? I’m laughing… not even a 14-day trial?!?!? Sch’laaaaaate~ Show more

    Immediately uninstalled
    Won't be creating an account to play local files, thanks. Bye.

    you had one job
    I just wanted a simple music player to play my flac files. This app wanted to sign me up for service, add my entire itunes library, waaaaaaay tooooo much hassle. I’ll probably get spammed by these goofballs now. Show more

    Makes me sad...
    This app would have been great if they'd have just emulated the early versions of iTunes with a great manager that enhances the audio playback but retains a robust library management sans insanity that Apple has added over the last several years. Show more

    Not sure
    I want to give this player a higher rating, but having a hard time understanding why when I play an m4a file that finder is telling me the voice clip is being uploaded. I don't want the audio clip copied or uploaded anywhere, can't it just play the file as is on the hard drive? Show more

    Stop nagging me Vox
    It's constantly sending nagging notifications about signing in or signing up.

    Worse than iTunes
    Sure, it looks good. Yes, it plays streams as you'd expect. What's with this login and registration? Why should I have to do that to play or stream music? What if I don't want your curated radio stations? I thought it was a new Winamp. Doesn'nt work that way. Maybe it is. Won't continue playing if you shut your Mac. Even if you can possibly (can't) get it to play over Airplay to your AppleTV. Dump this 100%. Go to VLC until they figure out what a music player should be and not a drain on the community. Show more

    original CDs are unplayable
    It can’t play original CDs. It keeps playing for a second, then stops then plays again and stops. Horrible. Same CD on iTunes sounds normal. I was hoping to sub itunes for this app, but that’s just ridiculous. Getting rid of CD compatibility? i get that most of a time, we stream or listen to mp3s, but that’s just too ridiculous. I have a bunch of special edition CDs, or CDs from concerts, or signed CDs. I want to listen to them too! Show more

    Everything good but the app is crap
    I've been a customer for almost 2 years. The cloud has worked well for me and the sound quality is good (if a bit less intense than Audirvana). However - during that time I have not seen one significant change in the app. The app is silly bad - does not even rorate on an Ipad. And on the Ipad the size is like a phone. On the MAC it is not any better. Does not take advantage of ANY larger screens. At least on my MAC I can user Audrivana to play y flac library. It is as if they are not interested in any development to make the app better. I used to get these e-mails asking to fund this company - glad I didn't they are asleep at the wheel these days.

    Awful app
    This app is practically malware. I just need a free music app that won't try and sell me more toxic subscription garbage on my computer. Stop trying to trick me into subscriptions. Terrible, awful, product. Show more

    NIce enough. Not useful for local files
    VOX does give you an easy way to import or navigate local music files. You can play them individually, or manually make lists, but it's a pain. I really miss Nightingale. Sure, VOX is great with streamed music, but then I can just use Spotify. Show more
  • shroyd, 02.02.2020
    Works really well about 60% of the time...
    The other 40% of the time, it is either crashing, not syncing or not loading imported files. If you email customer support, it will be at least two days before you receive an often not very helpful reply. Show more

    Local library view needs improvement
    Don't like that I'm not able to view local library by album cover or artist ... Just a long list of all my songs.

    No trial
    No trial, expected me to pay right off the bat. Nope

    Good for FLAC, dying under its own weight
    Vox used to be a wonderful app, unfortunatly the more "features" they add the less and less nice it becomes. This new Loop menu bar icon for sign in, which can't be removed is especially annyoing. It's even more annoying that their Sign In process doesn't work. I'm logged in in the browser, I'm told I'll be redirected to Vox -- nothing. I've tried a few times, which is more than I needed to since I didn't really want to be logged in anyway. If you open the App's package contents, you can delete the Loop app so that problem at least goes away. But if all you're looking for is an easy and elegant way to paly FLAC files, Vox is no longer it. It's simpler long-term to just convert to ALAC and use Apple's iTunes or Music app, which is quite sad. Maybe if you're addicted to SoundCloud Vox is awesome still? Show more

    App is adding items to startup and auto opt-in on transmitting statistical data
    Beware. As found in a sweep on the app I found that they are actually maliciously adding their own loop.app to your menu bar and not allowing it to be disabled or removed. Also by default the app is allowing the anonymous transmit of statistic and analytical data by default. App part in question that auto runs: /Applications/VOX.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/Loop.app Show more

    Using all my RAM!
    It's using over 2 GBs of RAM on my CPU when it's not even being used. It's ruining my CPU speed! Please fix this problem.

    Cloud Sync sorta works...sometimes
    The player itself is very good. However their premium cloud sync product is buggy. Specifics: New items added to monitored locations, sync hasn't figured it out yet...two weeks later. Add files button doessn't work since Catalina. Add monitored locations doesn't work since Catalina. Don't delete and reinstall the app under Catalina. You get a message that the OS can't check the app for malware and so you can't load it. (support was told about this one at least a week ago). Apple has published guidance to their developers on new security check yet support did not know about it. Show more
