RandomPlayer
Shuffle Videos from your NAS
Free · In‑App Purchases
New in 1.2: copy your library onto an encrypted external drive and take it anywhere. Downloads get a screen of their own, and shuffle skips videos your device can't play.
We all have that library — hundreds of videos saved to a network share, most of them untouched since the day they were added. RandomPlayer connects to your SMB, NFS, or WebDAV shares, finds every video buried in those folders, and shuffles them into a playlist you didn't know you needed.
No menus to scroll through. No decision fatigue. Just press play and let your own collection surprise you.
RandomPlayer Pro unlocks unlimited shares, offline downloads, and the full browse experience — one purchase across all your devices.

Take It With You (Pro)
Copy videos onto an external drive, encrypted, and play them on your iPhone, iPad or Mac signed in to the same Apple Account. Fill the drive from your share, eject it from inside the app, and your library goes wherever you do, no server in sight. Copying runs while the app is open.
SMB over QUIC (Pro)
Reach your NAS over the internet on encrypted UDP 443, no VPN required. Tap Get from Server to fetch the server's certificate, confirm it once, and you're in. Your server needs SMB over QUIC switched on.
Downloads, a screen of its own
In Progress at the top, then everything saved on this device, and on a connected drive when you have one. The screen is free for everyone; saving videos to it needs Pro.
Also in this release
- Shuffle learns which videos your device can't play and stops landing on them. They stay visible, dimmed and badged, instead of quietly vanishing.
- Watch parties only vote on videos everyone in the room can play.
- Downloads survive the connection dying while your phone sleeps, and keep going while it's locked. (Pro)
- Resume where you left off on another device and the download jumps ahead to that spot instead of stalling. (Pro)
- A password changed on one device is picked up by your other devices before their next connection attempt.
- Now Playing artwork keeps real frames from your videos instead of a generic card. (Pro)
- Watch parties are steadier: joins complete, one device rebuffering doesn't pause the room, and play, pause and seek stay in sync for everyone.
- Handing playback to AirPlay from the full-screen player just works.
- Removing a saved server is smooth again.
- Smoother scrolling and filtering on very large libraries.
