Pros and cons of SpeedUp Player Pro app for iPhone and iPad

SpeedUp Player Pro app good for

That´s what exactly need to listen to hours and hours of teachings

I am using this app on iPad every day for many years. Request to Developer; please, make it for iPad in landscape resolution. Will be very grateful.

Since the day I got my iPhone, Ive been searching for an app that can playback my iPod music at a quicker speed - it is perfect for lectures. Five stars. And with the recent update, it got even better :)

Very useful if you are listening to audio books or re-downloaded podcasts where you want to do a quick short rewind to rehear what was said. I wish there was an iPad app as more functionality could be available with the increased screen space and I use the iPad in landscape view mostly so everything is out 90 degrees, but still useable. It would be nice if there were some more options in the playlist such as sorting by tag fields such as artist (authour), title, album, year, etc. This would be probably easier to implement in an iPad version with the additional display space.

Great, great app, but doesnt work with IOS5. When you try to change tracks, the library comes up empty, then it just crashes. Please update asap.

I use it all the time when I manually download podcasts through other apps (GoodReader), and to manage a playlist now that iTunes Match doest support podcast playlists. Also the gestures to control playback are really useful.

Some bad moments

As opposed to what is advertised in the lite version, this app is NOT integrated with Dropbox... You might as well stick with the free version.

Very very slow, and sometime not even working. You press and nothing happens. Potentially it could be very good, with a lot of function, but you have to fix those bugs before to sell it!

・スマートプレイリストのフォルダ構造が維持されない。（フォルダ内、フォルダがバラバラになる）BAD:Not recognized the folder of folders(smart playlists);The tree of folders is beoken. ・再生回数が、iTunesに反映されない。以上を直せば純正アプリ、特に純正ポッドキャストアプリを超えることが出来る。

Let me star by saying this is an excellent app that Ive used for years, and it should be a part of any podcast-lovers app list. In this version, however, when playing audio at ~1.8x, the battery on my iPhone 4S drains crazy fast (probably drops by 50% in an hour), and relatedly the phone gets super hot. This is the case regardless of the playback algorithm which is chosen. This did not occur in the previous version of this app.

THIS IS THE ONLY APP THAT CAN PLAY 2X+ SPEED AND NOT SCREW UP. Provided the user goes through the settings and chooses medium quality. (Or high, but... mid is better?)

I love this app. Its the only app I use to listen to lectures and podcasts. It is easy to use and customize gestures to control playback speed and fast forward or reverse. I like that it resumes any recording where I left off — miles ahead of Apples app.
