The UX is not too good. Great concept and I've loved the mobile version. The desktop requires me to create a Vox account if I move between any of the top 5 options (Playlist, Library, Queue, Radio, and Soundcloud). The main issue I have with creating an account is that I don't want another music account (or any account for that matter). This is unfortunate because VOX a really capable music player and the track specs displayed at the top are cool feature. Show more

I like the sound quality of the Vox player/editor, but that's all. Unfortunately, I don't know how to use it, and the answers you get to inquiries are worthless. A one-page set of insrutions would make all the difference, but they don't do that. Such a waste. UPDATE: On July 12, 2019, Coppertino asked me if I wanted to updte my review. Not really. except, no, I've already mentioned how worthless their "help" is. They were polite, and they answered promptly, BUT it almost seemed as if they didn't understand plain English, simple Engish. Really!!! Show more

in new update i have to force quit it a-lot it hangs a-lot and makes me crazy

I excitedly spent a day uploading 72GB of songs to the cloud from my CD collection. I didn't see any of it on my devices so I waited, thinking it might take a while to sync. After a few days I wrote support. Only about 2-3 GB out of the 72 showed up on my iOS devices and I wanted to know why. Could it be file types? Could it be some kind of error someone could help me with? Did I do something wrong? After 15 emails back and forth with Vox's support, I'm convinced I was talking to a bot the whole time. There was no comprhension at all of what I was asking. It kept trying to solve for problems I didn't ask about at all. I'm really disappointed because I see all of the great ratings and really love the promise of what it was supposed to do- but it didn't work. And tech support was like talking to a black hole. I've never written a review like this before, but after all of the time I spent writing tech support, trying to find new ways to ask the same question hoping they'd understand - after hours of uploading songs I was so excited to listen to again - I reached the point of writing a one-star review. There's a first time for everything. Show more

Doesn't allow you to use any useful features until you create an account -- likely to collect your library information and sell to third parties/advertisers. Garbage. Use something else.

Really!!! (Radio mode is very very very buggy) So many stations do not play at all. Multiple entries (for the same station) or double-clicking new station sometimes starts previously played station. Sometimes beach balls!!! Since version 3.x Radio mode did go to... Oh well Contacted developer about some dead stations few months back and still no fixes. Time to move on to other players. Do not waist your time and money. I will be happy to do another review when this is all fixed... one day or ever? Show more

I used this player on my old mac and I had sonos support. Now that I have a new mac and a fresh install, it appears that sonos support is locked to the $5 monthly premium. I don't need another subscription service. I have this player purely for the local support and removing that one feature means I have a dumb media player and pretty much any software including itunes and vlc are more than able to perform those functions and more. Also, I have a airplay capable sonos speaker which appears to be blocked somehow. The app appears to be playing but the sonos never switches over and no audio is heard anywhere. Show more

I bought Vox hoping to get it to work on my Sonos system. It doesn't! It also can't deal with music stored in different locations. I realized this minutes after paying for it and emailed them to request an immediate refund. They are super shady and would not help me solve my problems or refund my money. Don't download this scam ware. Show more

For audiophile, all the necessary functions are behind the paywall. Things like sync sample rate, hog mode and buffer, are all for subscription. It is USD50 per year, make it almost the same (or even more expensive) than those other commerical like Amarra and Audirvana. If you want to find a free version for your Hi-res player, this is not the one you want. Show more
