With reference to REAL LIVE MUSIC reproduction, this player is pretty good to the REAL thing. I have listened to many live concerts practically every week 2 or 3 times to have a good judgement on that. My preference is this app over UAPP when it comes to which is more like the REAL thing! Mind you, this is NOT THE PERFECT music player. Has not come across one that is perfect wrt LIVE MUSIC for sure!

•Audio quality is the best I've ever heard (even better than PowerAmp) and the advanced features are useful but the interface is horrible and lacks some basic functionality. •After outputing to Chromecast and disconnecting, Chromecast replaces media volume instead of reverting back which is usually maxed out and extremely loud if not lowered afterwards. 'Replace Device Volume' doesn't work. Please fix. •'Audio Fade Out on Pause' is a setting, would like to see an 'Audio Fade In on Play' as well.

Log out problem had been solved with the update. Once again, the best player save EQ ever. I've tried so many and the list is long and none of them are capable to perform and handle sound like this one. Just one little hiccup, of i stop using it for a couple hours or completely closet the player, and i start playing music every time the music goes mute for like a second after the first 20 seconds in the first song.
