Used to be my go-to video player. Loved all the features. Changed my phone from a Samsung S8 with Android 9 to an A12 running 11 and now it crashes EVERY time I open it. As it's been years since the last update, I guess this is no longer supported and will be deleted soon.

Doesn't even start on Pie (9) or above. They completely abandoned this app... Including the paid version... Bummer. Really disappointed in Archos for letting us down. As of now there really isn't any other apps for local scraping, management, and playback, with Android TV support. I'll miss this app. It was definitely a hidden gem.

Like others are reporting, app flashes open then closes immediately. Completely unusable. I deleted it a year ago from my old phone. Installed now on my new phone hoping it might be fixed. Nope! It was a great app and I would pay again if it worked, but it looks like it's been well and truly abandoned.
