Simple video player app for mobile

HB Video Player is a free multimedia application for mobile by TT Studio. It is a video player app that focuses on simplicity and ease of use. It supports both offline and online playback, as well as support for various file formats and resolutions up to 4K.

Compared to the other popular players like MX Player or VLC for Android, HB Video Player takes a more straightforward approach that lets users play any video they want right away. This notion is further supported by its clean and minimalistic user interface that is just as easy to navigate and use.

Just watch

The majority of people nowadays turn to online streaming services to consume video content. They're convenient, accessible, and don't take up much storage space. However, there are still some users who prefer offline viewing, whether due to the lack of an internet connection or personal preference. In these cases, a video player is a must, and HB Video Player is a simple and lightweight option.

This video player has a minimalistic user interface that features three tabs. The default one is Video wherein you will see all local files saved on your devices for quick select-and-play. The second tab is Folder, and here you can browse through your files in a more organized way when looking for something specific. A bonus is that you can also use this app for network streaming.

Head over to the Settings page to find additional options you can enable, including Double Tap functions for seeking and for play/pause. Back to the player itself, there are on-screen icons for rotation, button lock, changing aspect ratio, and even a picture-in-picture mode. Now, as this app's free, it comes with various ads. However, they will often crash the app when they appear for no apparent reason.

Problematic

To conclude, HB Video Player is a decent video player app that has all the basics covered and then some. It's clean, intuitive, and offers some nice extras that many will appreciate. However, the crashing problem caused by ads is a deal-breaker and ruins the whole experience. Until it gets fixed in an update, you would be better off trying other options.
