I mentioned Neutron Player on the first page of this thread
It is excellent. Any UI issues are more about the initial set up than when actually using it. I've been using it for a few years on different devices and am currently on android 13 on a Samsung A52S and it's great on this too. I'm a Qobuz subscriber and I have my own music collection on a home server running BubbleUPnP server. I use BubbleUPnP app on android to pass my own streams or Qobuz streams to Neutron, or to my home audio systems running UPnP/DLNA renderers, and it's all lossless and gapless (as appropriate). I started using Neutron and UAPP in order to use USB audio dongles and enjoy bit-perfect playback and a bit of extra output voltage. I find my latest Samsung actually outputs a reasonable level even for modern, rather quiet IEMs like Truthear and Moondrop Kato but a dongle is still useful for headphones. I paid for both Neutron and UAPP but Neutron is definitely my daily driver for a renderer on Android. UAPP's single advantage, so far as I can tell, is that it can browse UPnP libraries rather than needing to incorporate them into its own database. This is occasionally useful but mostly Neutron is pretty good about detecting changes and rescanning. In the last year or so Neutron incorporated the AutoEQ database and updates it quite regularly, so it has become incredibly good for switching between IEMs/headphones and using EQ. UAPP uses a toneboosters morphit EQ plugin (costs extra) and it is nowhere near as good or convenient.
Yes, Neutron is for my daily use.
UAPP only for Qubuz.
If anyone is interested, Neutron network capability is for smb1 protocol.
Windows, by default runs smb2.
UAPP can read both, so it is better on that front.
However, somewhere on ASR and somewhere on Headfi, I have a post, giving step by step instructions as how to enable smb1 on a Windows machine and create a shared music folder and how to setup Neutron to access it.
With recent updates, Neutron has a stable connection .
I can add the Windows shared folder to the Media Library and play flawlessly from it.
One more thing Neutron does, which is cool, is the fact it can route hires audio to BT.
Even using DSP, and then to BT.
So if you have LDAC , you can send hires to it.
