You love your music. In fact, you have the biggest collection of albums and individual songs of anyone you know and you listen to your playlists as often and for as long as you possibly can. Now, thanks to iSub Music Streamer, you’re enjoying your favorite songs everywhere you go, even at work or on a long plane ride.

iSub is an incredible app that lets you stream all of that music—even your concert recordings, DJ mixes, and audio books—from your home computer directly to your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad over WiFi and mobile data.

iSub streams your music from any Subsonic compatible server (Subsonic, Airsonic, Madsonic, and others). There’s no central service to rely on and its all your own music, so you never have to worry about songs randomly going missing when their licensing runs out like on some streaming services.

It doesn’t matter the size or file format of your collection; iSub can handle it all thanks to native support for popular lossless and lossy file formats like MP3, AAC, FLAC, ALAC, OGG, and OPUS. Save your limited mobile data when on the go thanks to Subsonic’s ability to transcode your songs to a lower bitrate as they play, and listen to your high-resolution lossless FLAC files when at home or on a WiFi connection.

iSub isn’t just about listening, either. You can easily search, browse, and edit your playlists right from you device, shuffle songs and albums, view your latest additions and far more! The current and next song caches automatically as you play, saving you money on your data plan. You can even cache whole albums over WiFi without having to play them, so you can be ready for that long plane ride.

Customize your music experience and make it just the way you want it. Don’t just get force fed music like some other apps. With iSub, youre in control of your music!

Pros and cons of iSub Music Streamer app for iPhone and iPad

iSub Music Streamer app good for

Dont miss this perfect app for Subsonic ! If you have a problem, dont be afraid to contact the isub team ! They help you vey quickly ! Very pro !
If you have a subsonic server and an iOS device, this is a must have. Regular update, good stability = five stars
I use this App with my own Server. Perfect. Thank you. Perfect for remote access to my musik and Podcast Database
Gapless playback is the key feature and the continous support
Excellent features and overall quality. The UI needs a serious re-design though.
Realy good App! I use it for a year now and had no problems! Video support would be wonderful! I wonder about v3.1 - hope it come soon. I look every day for update. Very good work!

Some bad moments

On ios this appli is very nice, but i have upgrade on ios 8 and isub crash at launch
Does not support any media server besides those mentioned above.
No longer works well with 4.5 subsonic. Freezes every 15 sec, thanks
This app worked well for me during the last year. Theres a major glitch with the most recent update. When I choose to go into online mode, I get a black screen then I have to reinstall the app.
This is my music system for everyday. Best app ever but when it comes to iOS updates the developer is slow to releases updates.
Subsonic will stop working if you dont get premium which is $1 a month. I didnt know that. I want money back.
