ShurePlus PLAY

Please keep the updates coming! This player early on already blows away many of the long-standing wannabes. Recognized every song in my large library, and I can control all basic functions through my live wallpaper - impressive enough! Still needs gapless playback, and wouldn't recognise my m3u playlists. Also stutters a bit at the beginning of some songs. Take care of those issues (especially playlist import), and this could become my new goto player. Folder view & themes would be nice too!

The only reason you should download this app is to update the firmware on your headphones. (Which it does very poorly. I had to restart the process three times because it would either get stuck on the same percent for an hour or just crash.) The fact that you can only use the equalizer on music you manually load on to your phone, then play through the app, makes it useless for an overwhelming majority of end users. It's not the 2000s anymore--people stream music through services like Spotify, Pandora, etc. I seriously hope some out of touch boomer think-tank didn't force the app developers to make it function this way. Look at the overwhelming negative feedback saying the exact same thing: a global equalizer is needed. Get your act together, Shure. (P.S. Don't make your marketing intern/bot paste the same "we are listening to your feedback!" reply here as well; it is very clear you are not.)

I liked this app until the most recent update. It opens with a screen asking me to sync a shure device to it which is annoying. It'll randomly delete my playlists and recently it started separating the albums into multiple albums. I like this app for the eq and vocal control. Shure usually makes pretty solid products, but until these bugs are fixed I'll probably end up uninstalling and finding something else
