Can any member recommend a good and simple app for my iPhone running 9.2 to simply play my own music without wanting me to buy tunes or streaming generally, In other words an offline app that has no ability to go online etc. Free or paid is fine.

Many thanks in advance for any direction provided.

As I tend to use my iPhone more as a music player than anything else, I've tried many, many alternatives and each time I find I come back to the native player because it's simple and effective and does the job, but obviously that's my own personal preference.

One of the very best alternatives is Mezzo

The only problem with it is that the developer is a student who has, let's say, clearly prioritised his studies . I haven't used it for a while so I don't know if he's actually gotten around to updating it, but when it was working on a previous version of iOS, it was fantastic - looked amazing and was very intuitive as well.

Smartplayer is another nice one, although it's a paid app at the moment

Leechtunes as well, but also paid

Ecoute, paid again

(I got all these apps when they were free I assume )

Many thanks Jason, I have downloaded Mezzo and it looks just right for me.

Many thanks for responding to my request for help.
