* All in one lossless music player: FLAC+APE+WAV+WavPack+AIFF+ALAC
* Designed for audiophiles
Golden Ear is a lossless music player. It supports all common lossless audio formats, including FLAC, APE, WAV, WavPack,AIFF, ALAC. It also recognizes accompanying CUE files, and lists individual tracks so you can pick up your favorite one very easily. You just need to make sure CUE file shares same file name with the music file. Similarly, to display the cover art, you just provide the image file with same name. Golden Ear recognizes embedded cover art and CUESHEET comment tag inside flac files.
Music files can be grouped either by artists or by albums. You can also show all files in one single playlist, or only files in a chosen folder.
Golden Ear provides a straight forward control interface. You can use three playback modes: 1) Continuing in order; 2) Shuffle; 3) Loop one track/song.
Just put your collection onto your device via iTunes file sharing, then you can start listening to high quality audio everywhere you go.

Only docking the one star because I wish it supported CarPlay. Other than that, it does what it should: play FLACs.——Looks like iOS 26’s terrible UI has broken the layout of this app. Still functions, but controls and labels are in funky positions.
So limited and out of date

I downloaded this due to some positive reviews about flack file playback. While it does play local files, you have to copy them all into the application playback is completely broken in the sense that it won’t even play the next song in an album. It just plays one song at a time that’s it. This may be a limitation with local flag files, but the functionality is just not there. The interface and user experience seems like something from 20 years ago, which makes sense. This is a really old application, but it just doesn’t hold up and the fact they charge money for it is insane. I made the mistake of giving them a few bucks just to try it out but I should’ve known better when there was not a demo the free apps like fubar 2000 are 1000 times better so just avoid this and grab a free player.
Great flac player but.....

Really needs to support adding files through file app. No one really plugs in devices anymore ;) and CarPlay support
Supports cue files, very battery friendly
