Re: Seamless playback seems inconsistent at best

Why not use a music app that supports the mp3 format and gapless playback?

I use foobar2000 mobile on my iPhone and ipad. Works well and supports most codecs

If you can suggest a player that I can install in my iPhone & sync with iTunes on my Mac, I'm all ears.

foobar2000 mobile?

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Dowloaded, installed & so far working perfectly!

I assume that iTunes (or "Music", as it's now called) synchronises with the phone rather than the app, so any changes will just appear in Foobar the way they do in the Apple music app?

You can use iTunes, or we have our own sync program 'TuneFUSION'

Show off!

TuneFUSION appears to be Windows only. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Yes. I sync my mp3 files to my ithings using iTunes. But I actually play the files on iThings using foobar2000 mobile.

That seems to be working for me, too.

I believe foobar2000 mobile will also play files added to other folders (not the standard music folder) so one can add flac files, etc. I&*8217;ve never bothered to try this as I use mp3 or AAC on my portables.

So, Foobar was working perfectly on my iPhone 8 but now I have an 11 Pro & whenever I dismiss the app or lock the phone the music stops. Any idea whether I can fix this?

Issue noted. Please try forcibly closing the foobar2000 mobile application, or even reboothing the phone. Such behavior has been sighted before on a first run of a new foobar2000 mobile installation.

Yep! The ol' "turn it off & on again" worked. Silly that I never even thought of it! Thanks!
