OP the free/lite version is missing a ton of features. not sure if I can do a proper review. right now if I were to review the lite version it'd be pretty bad. taking the hard keys out of the lite version makes this app pretty unusable for me, so I doubt id have the urge to even try it for awhile. I use the hard keys all the time, especially while I'm driving. when I noticed they weren't working I instantly switched back to neutron. nice interface though.hungcotac likes this.09-13-13 01:01 AMLike 1 - I had the same problem, but I'm not as patient as you. I only waited like 10 mins and said eff this and restarted the app. when it restarted indexing was done. lol

PS: In lite version you still can use hard key to control music09-13-13 01:17 AMLike 0 - Hi again. Trying out lite version here is what I've noticed:
In shuffle mode, if you skip to next song over and over it will cycle through only 2 songs. Maybe just me testing 3 total..
Previous song function does not have this problem it will randomly shuffle backwards
When app closes it would be nice if shuffle and repeat mode are saved so user doesn't need to re-enable every time
!If user attempts to index music when there are no songs it will be stuck on indexing forever, perhaps make a 120 second time out or error msg
Adding new songs does not seem to be indexed automatically, have to press re index every time adding new song? Also pressing re index did not even detect new songs right away had to scan 3 times
Sort by function might be nice with "all song" listing. Example sort by file name actual song name or artist name
Unplug headphone to stop music playing function also may be nice touch
Top right button at main menu to change wallpaper a little wasted because not many user will change color after initial setup perhaps make it a drop down options list?
To help the flow of the UI an idea is maybe allow swipe left from main menu to go to now playing and allow swipe right to return to main menu.
--- I know swipe right is to change song but maybe move change song to swipe up and swipe down and change music seek to rotating the circular bar dot - like setting alarm in bb10 alarm clock is very neat and efficient.
Sorry extremely long list of stuff but I am just giving my ideal wishes and thoughts, no complaints! Thanks for this great player

Almost of problems you mention above are right. But I will fix one by one so it may be time-consuming to fix all of them so be patient please
But biggest bug seem to be indexing function so i 'll put it in highest priority. And when app is usable. I 'll add some feature that you want
Thank you once a gain09-13-13 10:17 AMLike 0 -
- Some observations:
1. No "shuffle all" once in all songs. Have to pick a song first then enable shuffle.
2. The repeat seems to be repeat that one song only, not repeat the playlist. It's a little confusing and I kept wondering why this one song kept playing over and over again.
3. No easy way to get back to the beginning of a song. Have to keep swiping up to get to the start. Normally, holding the back hard key would bring it back to the beginning of the song and holding it again goes to the previous, but Latasy just jumps to the previous song.
4. Opening up Latasy and pressing the play key does not play a song. Have to pick a song/playlist first. This is how the default player works, but that's one of its annoyances.
5. Once a song is chosen you would think it would automatically jump to the jow playing screen, but it doesnt.
Will list more once I use it for awhile. So far, I like the player but it's missing quite a bit of features - especially when compared to neutron.

This is consistent with what I saw last time, as I had neutron open.

- Apparently there are issues where BB Appworld doesn't notify users of available updates, they released a new Appworld version some days ago but alas this doesn't seem to fix much in my case...They're on it10-03-13 10:33 AMLike 0

- I'm not if this is on the horizon, but fetching album art and being able to scan for music in other folders is important to me.
Also... is there anyway you could use the remote file access feature in BlackBerry 10 to stream music through your app. I you would have money instantly with that feature!
Posted via CB1010-03-13 09:40 PMLike 0 - Any news on Q10 support? Neutron isn't working right and I could really use a good replacement.
