Seems there are few to just me using Subsonic in the US with iOS or maybe I'm the only one having issues with random crashes and non-configurable settings in players. I've tested the players available in the US as of day and some are working better than others.

After upgrading to iOS 14 I found my installed Subsonic players no longer played nice. I've deleted each Subsonic players on my device and I've clean installed them along with configuration of each app to rule out stale settings etc...

Audiophone for iPhone/iPad - Not available in the US
Z-Subsonic for iPhone/iPad - Not available in the US
SubHub for iPhone/iPad - Not available in the US

SubStream SubStreamer for iPhone/iPad - One App two names. Version 4.5.9. This one is working for the most part, but I’m still waiting for the optimization stages to complete. I was not able to find a shuffle all songs or randomize all songs option. One can randomly call up some albums, but I’d rather shuffle songs. Not a fan of this one.

play:Sub for iPhone/iPad - play:Sub was my favorite for a very long time. Sadly it has not worked for me since iOS 12 (random crashes and a strange song randomizer are this apps undoing for me). The same issues persist on iOS 14. I really miss play:Sub pre-iOS 12 updates.

iSub for iPhone/iPad - I’ve been using iSub since iOS 12 and it’s the #1 Subsonic iOS player in my opinion. It solved my play random songs need. It’s a little flaky on iOS 14. It will not allow me to enter more then one server connection. Upon tapping the + to add a new/different connection the app crashes. Luckily I had added my outside address first, but now all traffic goes through net. The last update was along time ago in 2017. Would be great to see an update, but it was free and I thank the creator/s for a solid app that's lasted so long.

AVSub for iPhone/iPad - First time trying this one. It crashed during configuration, but recovered alright. Seems stable for now. Further testing underway... Not keen on the UI flow. Does have a random songs option.

Soundwaves for iPhone/iPad - This one just works. Minimalists dream come true. Not for me.

Maybe this will help someone... Your mileage will vary. I'm going to stick with iSub for as long as I can and fallback on AVSub when needed. Good luck iOS users if you are out there.

play:Sub is my favorite. Has all the features I need and the support is the best of any app for any use.

Ditto this request.

iSub is bombing on my iPhone SE ever since I upgraded to ios 14. Issue has continued with each 14.x release as well.

Thanks in advance for any further work you can do on this app!

In my post above re: play:Sub I neglected to say I use it on iPhone XS and 4th Gen iPad, both with iOS 14.1 - zero issues.

I was a MusicCabinet/iSub man for years, but iSub stopped working completely when I upgraded to iOS 14. Unfortunately, I couldn't get any other iOS app to work with the old-ass MusicCabinet framework, so that was the butterfly flapping its wings that made me finally give up on MusicCabinet and move to Madsonic. However, iSub didn't seem to like Madsonic either, which has sent me to <shudders> Plex, at least to see what it's all about. Very sad to think my *sonic decade may be coming to an end, but time waits for no man...
