Quick summary
FoxFM — Offline Video Player is a free multimedia app that lets you download and keep files from major cloud providers (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive) for offline use. In addition to basic file storage and management, it can play media files and convert videos into audio tracks or ringtones. The app can be handy as an alternative to some other file managers, but current stability problems limit its usefulness.
File formats supported
The app handles a broad range of formats, including:
- JPG, PNG (images)
- MP4, MP3 (video and audio)
- ZIP (archives)
- XLS, XLSX, PPT, PPTX (spreadsheets and presentations)
- DOC, DOCX, PDF (documents)
- Numbers, Pages (Apple document formats)
Files stored in the app can also be shared with other apps or exported back to your device.
Importing, exporting and sharing
- Connect and download content directly from cloud accounts such as Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.
- Import photos and videos from your device’s camera roll, and export saved items back to your gallery.
- Share files via email or through social apps with a few taps.
Security options and paid features
The app includes a Passcode lock to protect private files locally. A subscription tier unlocks unlimited access to premium functionality across the app, such as expanded usage limits and additional conveniences.
However, because many users report crashes and erratic behavior, purchasing a subscription right now is not recommended until stability improves.
Stability, current problems, and recommendation
FoxFM offers useful features — file playback, conversion, and cloud syncing — but it is currently plagued by reliability issues. Users have reported the app crashing, sometimes before the home screen fully loads. Until the developer releases a substantial stability update, expect intermittent failures and consider using more reliable alternatives if consistent performance is important.
