Music Drop 'n Play for Android
Used to enjoy the premium version but now it doesn't work at all.
Doesn't work anymore, can't load my Dropbox
I'd like to make a playlist. The app reoders my list ugh!
It stopped working and there was no help found.
It used to work but I upgraded my phone and it says "network error" if I try to add songs. No settings to help me, no developer website.
This program has some pretty serious problems. It never remembers where you left off, it crashes, it hangs, it skips, it's slow. However, I've tried others, and this one is the only one that I've found that's usable, so, props. It's usable for two reasons-- 1. It actually works. 2. Its interface isn't idiotic. The others that I've tried have at least one of those two problems. They either don't work at all or have trendy, non-functional interfaces. I'll be sticking with this one for now.
Many people (like me), several times a day, move in and out of 3G, 4G, and wifi. The idea with this app, is, to grab a bunch of songs that you feel like hearing today, (while you have internet signal), so that, when you are no where near an internet signal, what you have are those songs that you pulled into this app. They play as much as you want them to play, and that is a really good thing. When you are sick of those songs, you can tell the app to remove them, and next time you are in an internet area, you can grab more songs from dropbox. That makes this app (for this specific purpose), perfect !!!
I would give it 5 stars if you could create Playlists or at least be able to move songs into different folders within the app. You can not control your music with bluetooth headphones which is a pity. If you could add these features in a future update I would rate this app again 5 stars.
Been using free version few days and been amazed so i bought full version. I love when i can choose one song or more from Dropbox not the whole album. Playing is wonderful without any glitch. For my needs this app is perfect, thanks.
I WAS more or less happy with this program until I showed up extra charges on my credit card. Since I never use my card, there was only one place that it could have come from and I am not impressed to say the least. Thankfully I was able to contact the bank and they are handling it now. I suggest everyone double check their cards if they bought this program.
It doesn't play in the background when most apps are opened. Also, if song are interrupted you have to start play list from the beginning. I feel that I wasted my money.
Ugh, this app sucks. There's no option to save play lists, constantly buggy, and clearly no longer worked on by the developer. It seems to have a mind of its own, skipping 'mid-track' to another song for no apparent reason, or just plain stopping midway into a song. Not to mention UGLY. Don't expect any of these things do be corrected or any improvements. DON'T BUY THIS, look elsewhere. It's a ripoff. I regret buying it. FYI: 'BEAT' app does everything this does and much more for FREE.
First off let me say I love this app! I have 50gb storage space on dropbox so I was able to take all my music and put it in there and use this app to listen to it! The only problem I have so far is the widget is kinda ugly and theres no album art. Add that and this is 10 stars!
I use this app (paid) as my band like to share mixes via dropbox. No matter what I do, when I try to update my playlist with the latest version of any song we are mixing, it plays the very first version of the song I put on the playlist. It's like it's playing from a cache. 1) I go into dropbox and listen and it's the latest version in dropbox. 2) I open this app (it says 'connected to dropbox') 3) I remove the legacy version of the song from the playlist (even though the path to the song, in the app, shows as where the new version is in dropbox correctly) 4) Hit play 5) The legacy version of the song (that no longer even exists in dropbox!) plays 6) Rinse and repeat ad nauseum - it doesn't work So, I cannot get a new version of any of my band's tunes to play on this app. I am at my wit's end with frustration. I am giving up. And, trying to change the order of the playlist is a nightmare. You either really need tiny fingers or a lot of patience or both! And you can only have one playlist at a time (yes, even with the payware version). You cannot save separate playlists in this app, just the one. Basically, the app is garbage for the usage it's intended for.
No embedded album art, constant phantom notifications which is incredibly annoying and splash screen on opening the app takes far too long to disappear. Avoid.
Hello, I opened and then realized I can't add my 300 album music collection... It's organized into folders by album, not loose in one folder. Thanks and good luck!
It works generally good, but sometimes it has difficulty connecting to dropbox. The most annoying thing is: Everytime internet is connected/disconnected it switches to and from cached mode and stops the music play (even though I have selected offline mode). Let me repeat: This happens even if I have selected offline mode, which is annoying. The only reason I have stopped using it.
Love it just wish they would make it for tablet view
It just has some connection issues. But it still works better than other apps,

After a few songs it akways drop connection but the most frustrating thing is how it dos not have a good music shuffle.
Dropbox use to stream via Facebook. Now dropbox doesn't seem to stream with anything until now! Thank you for this app million times over!!!
Loved it the first day it self..
I found the interface to be badly designed as you can't group files into albums and the files are often in the wrong order and I know my mp3s are tagged properly. The sound quality is bare able for 3g stream. Just needs the ability the search music by album, artist... Ect.

Ayy this is a really great app and the developers are really helpful unlike other developers. Now I can listen to cached songs in the subway. And they promised some really good updates soon.

I used to use ES File Manager to find my DropBox music and play it, but this solution is far better! I bought the full version for 2 reasons: >> The limitation of the number of songs in the Lite version; >> support the developer; ---One thing I'd like the developer to add would be Playlist management... I have different genres of music that I don't necessarily want to listen all at once (randomized), but it's tiresome to have to erase the list and select all the other songs one by one. Maybe a playlist stored locally on the phone, because if it's saved in the DropBox, it might cause confusion when people see the Playlist on their PC...
Have been using this app free ver for some time and now bough full version as it is very useful and should be integrated with dropbox .. excellent work guys.
Work great
bought quite some players. Among them this one is the most stable one. Recommend for simple people like me.
I have been searching an m4a player to playback my iTunes sings from dropbox for long time. This app fits my need and works great. Good job!
Overall very good, but it is missing some basic functionality. Could use a song search, group songs by artist to just play those songs , playlists, etc The search would be really nice
The concept is good, but the app is far too limited. No option to group by album. No search ability. Scrolling often reorders the song list. SKIP.
I've been using this App on my Samsung Galaxy S3 for some time now - fantastic App and very user friendly. Unfortunately a small problem developed after about a month, whereby the App repeatedly launches itself. I e-mailed the developers and their help was first class, prompt and straight forward. They explained that it specific to the OS on the Galaxy S3 so if you have this App on an S3 you have the same problem, go into the App settings and select the exit option and all will be fine. The developers are working on a fix but the above will solve the problem anyway. For a one-off cost of £1.49 this is much more cost effective than the recently launched Amazon Cloud Player at £24.99 a year.
This is a good application when wanting to play music. I initially had some problems with the application. But the developer helped me fix the issues that the application had. The developer was also very responsive to my emails. Now I hope I will not have any more issues with the application
Very easy to load music but it would be much better if there was a widget so that you didn't have to open the app every time you want to pause, play or change the song; it would be great if you could do that from the notification bar. Also, there should be some more organization of songs so that they are placed into actual categories labeled "Artists," "Playlists," etc. With everything jumbled together its often hard to find the song you want to play.
Works as stated. Some additional organization features would be helpful. Also it won't play Mp4's which are smaller files and can be grabbed from your itunes folder without conversion, not everyone has unlimited data or 4g service.
