Posts like this make me so sad. There are dozens of open-source and excellent MP3 players on Android but people apparently can't have the same on iOS because Apple refuses to accept sideloading.

There is nothing stopping developers from building an app that focuses on the local library and doesn’t do ads, but nobody is offering any quality ones.
