Development Team

HD Player- Video&Downloader is developed by DevPro Studio, a small team of 8 multimedia app specialists founded in 2019. The team previously launched "Audio Pro Player" (a 4.4-star audio app) and focuses on building user-friendly tools with minimal bloat. Support is available via [email protected], and they update their blog (hdplayer-devpro.com/blog) monthly with tips for using the app.

Competitive Products

MX Player: Strong at hardware-accelerated video playback but has intrusive ads and a less intuitive download feature.

VLC Media Player: Open-source, ad-free, and supports more formats, but its download function is basic and hard to navigate for new users.

Video Player All Format: Fast video downloads and a clean interface, but it struggles with 4K playback and lacks cloud storage support.

Market Performance

The app holds a 4.5-4.6 star rating from 85,000+ user reviews and has 1.2 million total downloads (5,200 in the last 30 days). Users frequently praise its "smooth 4K playback" and "quick download speeds," while common requests include adding batch downloads to iOS and fixing old-device 4K lag. It’s free to download with a $2.99 in-app purchase to unlock advanced subtitle tools.

Version Information

The latest version is 1.3.1, released in October 2024. Updates include: fixing a bug that caused failed downloads from Instagram, adding 3 new subtitle font options, and optimizing 4K playback for Android 14. The team also improved iOS compatibility for iPhone 15 models, though batch download support for iOS is still listed as "coming soon."
