I bought it. Very good, but needs a few tweaks. For instance, when you see a list of your bookmark (or clips) there should be the ability to delete any bookmark or clip, or all bookmarks...but right there and not in some other location. "Clever" is bad in such cases. Make it straightforward and don't make me think.

Thanks for the support and feedback :) Deleting from the main Bookmarks screen is already planned - currently you can only delete from the media's View Bookmarks screen. You can force landscape or portrait from Settings, Screen orientation. Please email with more questions or comments as it's much easier to discuss - smokyinkcreations@gmail.com

I tried this app because I'm looking for an AB player (music and language study) that can save clips reliably and adjust, fine tune, the clip boundaries to loop as a continuous beat. AB Audio Player dies these things, especially moving the AB boundaries by 0.1, 0.2 or 0.5 second increments. And that is free. The Pro version of this app only has 0.5 secs, which is not fine grained enough for precision in looping. Also the developer hardly interacts with the users giving feedback. Why?

Excellent media player, very well thought out and designed, with so many options available, there should be something for everyone, simple and easy to use. In addition the developer offers an extended free trial for the pro version to evaluate the app thoroughly, although it is perfectly usable in the free version, but the cost of the pro version is almost a give away price! Also the developer is very pro active, so id in doubt ask!
