Widyoist Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I bought it on android.it's absolutely the best and the most superior music player on the planet.it's been my default player for years. when i moved to iphone.i miss it.i have tried many players like Vox,Captune,Boom,Marvis,etc.paid and free apps on iOS.they are ok,just ok,some of them even worst and like craps and of course none of them equal to Poweramp. please develop Poweramp for iOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Poweramp is, and will remain for the foreseeable future, an Android app. There is only one developer on this project, and his hands are completely full with Android development. Sadly that's what you get for moving to the 'dark side'. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 No change to my earlier post, sorry. Poweramp is an Android app. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Páplϋ ×_× Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Please make the same app for iOS. Infinity love to this music player. Please accept request. THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Which bit of the earlier replies was unclear? To clarify: there are NO plans in the forseeable future to make an iOS version of Poweramp. There is only one developer, and his time is fully taken up with work on the existing Android product. Sorry if this isn't the answer you want to hear - perhaps you might consider getting an Android phone instead of an iPhone? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haddy Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 As a devoted Android user, I actually support this request. I'd speculate that maxmp would have to hire hire a developer for the initial iOS 'port' before continuing with the source code. Just speculation of the behind the scenes development, I have no idea. I also think that iOS would be a lot more limited in terms of API compared to Android, so there would be gaps in particular Android features on theApple version. Still, money wise, maxmp would only stand to profit from a splintered off venture such as an iOS version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poweramp of course limited to Android. Neutron I own on iOS cuz I have owned iphones in the past and neutron is probably the single most useful music player to me on ios being an audiophile/bass head. That said Neutron for iOS has zero competition...It does not miss a beat whatsoever from the Android version nor the Windows version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 @MR FAUGLE Sadly Poweramp is not a large company, it is just one developer and his time is fully taken up with work on the Android version. So no, there won't be an iOS version any time in the foreseeable future. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zireael9797 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Is it actually even possible to make a full fledged ios Poweramp? If it doesn't have the full suite of prowess is there even a point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 @zireael9797 of course it's possible though not every feature can be ported. iOS already has a bunch of good offline players - have you tried Marvis? Evermusic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superluig164 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 It's certainly possible, but that doesn't mean it's gonna happen. Also, I'm fairly certain that the audio engine (the main feature of Poweramp, or at least the most complex) is probably one of the things that can't be ported, in which case, why not just use any of the myriad of other good offline players available for iOS?

maxmp Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 @superluig164 audio engine is written in native C/C++ and, I guess, 70-80% of it can be ported (including Equalizer and other DSPs), though no DVC. The Library can be ported as well as Kotlin can be compiled for iOS via Multiplatform. The main issue is the UI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superluig164 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Does Apple allow for such a thing, though? I feel like that's something Apple wouldn't like, is a custom audio engine, especially over Bluetooth or other devices, but I'd be happy if I'm wrong.

maxmp Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 @superluig164 it allows that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superluig164 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Interesting. Well, that's good to know. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotleyG Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Neutron is using a custom engine on IOS. But just like Android, the UI is extremely basic. And library management isn't great either. I don't believe there are any other Android players that have also done an IOS version, yet. Maybe someday after @maxmp has done everything on the to-do list for Poweramp on Android, an IOS version will arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yash O Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 @MR FAUGLE Read the article below on why Poweramp will not be on iOS. Apple's philosophy is to control everything on their devices, which will not help Poweramp to thrive in iOS. Do you even realize that you cannot copy your Music Files like MP3/FLAC over to your iPhone and listen to it on an Offline Music player? How do you think will Poweramp survive in a world like that? https://medium.com/@Poweramp/why-android-is-better-than-ios-Poweramp-f8aceeffc6df Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALL you do is just drag and drop files (w/ iTunes or Apple Music app, whatever it’s called nowadays) to a local storage folder tied to any application that supports it. Adding files to VLC works in this manner without issue. Google is/was doing equally annoying storage access shenanigans of late; no platform is perfect, but it’s not as bleak as you might want it to be to make your point that Android > iOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am aware of that iTunes method, but it is quite buggy to the core to sync your Music files and is not an effective method, to either sync to Apple Music or VLC. The iOS doesn't support the detection of MP3/FLAC files when synced or pushed over iCloud or any other method. The only way is to sync your Music Files over to Apple Music and then export it to other Music Players, which isn't in any way an efficient method. Whereas on an Android it's quite easy to transfer our files, just copy/paste on to your phone, just like you would on a USB Stick. No hassles, no additional apps needed. Android>iOS in a functionality standpoint and for giving a user more access to his phone. Edited February 28, 2022 by Yash O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
