User Reviews for CloudBeats: Cloud Music Player

Totally basic and seems to crash, worth $.99, not $7

I bought this based on all of the positive reviews and needing a solution to play music hosted in my OneDrive folder. The interface is simple which is a positive, nothing tricky to figure out. But this is not simple in the way of giving power in an easy to navigate interface; it’s just basic. You can browse for artist, album or song. No genre, no bpm, nothing else. It has a radio function that basically just lets you “turn it on”; no ability to “change station” or select a style by choosing a starting song. I’m okay with totally random and 90% of time, that’s how listen ; “ shuffle all”. But I’d like some ability to tailor. But there is a problem with the app randomly shutting down after a couple of songs. Aside from the random crash, I would be delighted to pay $.99 for the access it gives; but for $6.99, I expect way more.

The Best Cloud-Based Music Player

I’ve been using this app for 5+ years or so, and I believe it’s the best cloud-based music player that I’ve ever heard; which is also easy to program via its friendly User Interface (UI). The software is constantly maintained on a regular basis which helps to keep in-pace with the newer technologies. I personally use several cloud storage systems (MS OneDrive, DropBox, Google Drive etc ...) And it’s a seamless connection with no lagging (of course, it all depends on your connection’s bandwith). Also, the footprint of the app’s occupancy’s space is very minimal. I highly recommend this app to all users who have a cloud-based storage system(s).

Nice interface, needs to run smoother

Solid music playing app. Works best if you use a music tagging program to tag your files with metadata (title, artist, cover art, etc) for this app to use to sort your music into genre’s, by artist, whatever. Had trouble with the app being able to synch all files on a google Drive, better function on Dropbox. Main problem: takes way too long to cue up a track. If you play an album start to finish its fine, but if you want to bounce around and play random songs, the app takes 20-30 seconds to cue up each track. Very choppy. If the app were updated to play tracks quickly it would be much better. Need to be able to pick a track, tap “play” and have the track play instantly. Not happening here.

Amazing development over the years

I’ll try to keep this short and sweet, as I could go on about how amazingly wonderful this app is. Written July 2022.• regular updates over the several years: new features and improvements are quite common for what can be seen as a relatively simple app• Siri integration: this is a new feature and lets me use Siri Shortcuts and automations, something I’ve wanted from this app for a while and is now here. Makes life so much easier especially when connecting to several airplay speakers. I can now do this with one tap versus multiples taps/apps before• great developer: Roman replies to emails when I report minor bugs, as well as when I have suggestions, several of which he has implemented• functionality: it does exactly what I need from a music app. Syncs with my cloud music folder and lets me download my entire library for buffer-free listening wherever I am• CarPlay: simple layout, even lets you toggle shuffle on/off. I now have an automation (thanks to the new Siri integration) which begins playing music when CarPlay is initiated. Love it!I’ve used CloudBeats for years. Literally hours per day for the last, oh, probably 7 or 8 years?? So happy I found this app. Music is everything to me and CB makes it easy for me to enjoy all my tunes :)

Finally works again (was Broken)

— The app finally works again, and it is playing my music no matter where I am.— The app is still completely broken. Still get track loading error. Still can’t play a single song from my library which had worked fine until several weeks ago when it broke. Developer says a fix will come ASAP, but none of the updates have solved the problem. I paid for this app, so I would appreciate either a fix or my money back.— The latest update has completely broken the app. Every song produces a “track loading error - try again.” Well, if you you try again nothing happens - it won’t play any songs in my library. It’s useless for playing music from my My Cloud Home which is why I paid for it in the first place.

App stands test of time

CloudBeats has greatly expanded in both functionality and scope since its early days when it only supported OneDrive (then known as SkyDrive). The developer (Roman, IIRC) soon added the other well-known Cloud repositories to the app, along with variable speed playback and other features needed for audiobook/podcast playback, among others. All without requesting an extra cent through IAPs or new versions, as seems common with developers now. That being said, the maturity of iPhone and the saturated market make lifetime app licenses seem like a shortsighted idea that have likely contributed to the cesspool of abandonware. I’d much rather pay a patronage than have the developer discontinue an app because it ceased to be personally or economically viable. With that out of the way, I have one enhancement suggestion and I’m not sure if it’s viable. There’s an option for local cloud but can this be used or repurposed to use an SMB login to a local router and link to a folder of attached storage or its media server?

Awesome app!

I was really happy to find an app that allows me to access all the music files that reside on my iPad, and play them, shuffle them, sort them, create playlists, etc. I assume that most people want to stream content, instead of taking up space on their device. (And it has tons of options for doing so!) But I have lots of space to work with, and am happy having my collection reside on my iPad and being able to listen Offline. Works well being controlled by wireless earbuds, too.Support from the developer is fabulous; very responsive and helpful. Even though the free version of CloudBeats worked well for me, I was more than happy to purchase the paid version. (Thankful I don’t have to maintain a subscription; just a one time purchase, at a great price, with no ads or in-app purchases to deal with.)I’m still discovering features and choices in CloudBeats that I hadn’t noticed at first. And the only hiccups I had turned out to be due to some improper file types and naming errors in my source folders, which I should have cleaned up beforehand. It turns out the app was behaving exactly as it should. Highly recommended!

Great App - Feels a Bit Outdated

I’ve had the Pro version of this app for the past month and have used it daily since downloading and paying for full use rights. The interface is fairly simple/straightforward and connecting the player to a cloud storage account is seamless. I would suggest a few things that would make this a five start app:1. Put 15-second, 30-second, and one minute skip options on the player interface - both in app and on the lock screen. I listen to old Howard Stern shoes and the scrubbing to various sections of a shoe isn’t always easy to do, especially whilst driving. 2. Institute additional track editing functionality in the app. I understand that perhaps this is a limitation because the metadata rests with the files in the cloud drive. However, it’s a pain to edit tracks, albums, etc. in “iTunes”, move those edited files into the cloud drive, and then hope the CloudBeats player recognizes the changes made for sorting purposes. This is the initial feedback that has immediately come to mind after using it consistently. It’s a great app but with some polishing, it could get even better.

Top Shelf Music Streaming! Totally love it.

I’ve been using CloudBeats for almost 2 years now and I totally love it. I have a ton of music I’ve converted from my vinyl and CDs over the past decade and I have it stored on Dropbox. This amazing app enables me to create custom mixes that stream my collection beautifully.I had weird issue a while back with songs playing at half speed on an older iPad. After an email to the good folks at CloudBeats they not only had the solution for me with a quick reply, the solution they offered brought to my attention a feature which enables you to alter the speed of a song. Which is great if you’re trying to learn a guitar solo, understand some unintelligible lyrics or simply speed up an audio book.I only wish it had a cross-fade feature so when I play a mix of songs they would seamlessly and subtly fade in and out of other. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if it already exists - all I know is that CloudBeats does the one thing I need/want it to do - stream my collection from Dropbox.Just download it already! You can thank me and CloudBeats later. Rock on!HMK

Fantastic for Music!

I couldn't be happier with this app. I have a giant library of MP3s that were such a pain to import into my music library and sync with iTunes every time I wanted to add or remove any, and this app elegantly replaces that entire process. Now you sign into a Google Drive account after installing the app, then just throw the MP3s into Drive and tell Cloud Beats which folder they're in, and BOOM! All your music is now immediately available.Data usage can be an issue if you're not on a wireless network, but you can prepare some tracks to be available offline if you know when you're going to be out and about. Coupled with the option to only play offline tracks, this makes it much easier to avoid excessive data usage.The reviews asking for the ability to skip around within a track to make podcasts more accessible are pretty valid though. From what I can tell, the only way to do that is to have the phone unlocked and the app open, which is probably not how you'll be listening to a podcast.Overall, I could not recommend this app highly enough. If you want more options for listening to a personal music library that isn't stored on iTunes, you can't do much better than Cloud Beats.
