MX Player is an app that allows you to play any video or movie stored in the memory of your Android device, regardless of the format. The app supports around a dozen video formats, including MP4, MOV, and AVI, and a dozen different subtitle formats. As a result, you can watch any movie comfortably in the language of your choice.

Optimal performance

One feature MX Player is known for is its multicore decoding system. This means that the app offers much better performance than most video players for Android, which generally only use one core. Thanks to the HW+ decoder, the app can also use hardware acceleration to improve playback performance and stability. This is particularly useful when playing very large files, such as 4K movies with multiple subtitle tracks or similar situations.

Convenient touch controls

MX Player stands out for its range of gesture controls, which allow you to carry out practically any action in seconds. For example, you can simply swipe up or down on the left side of the screen to increase or decrease the brightness. Doing the same on the screen's right side will lower or raise the volume. All these controls, of course, can be customized and adjusted from the app's settings menu. Control and interact with your video player your way.

The king of subtitles

Another interesting feature of MX Player is the ability to load and edit subtitles in several different ways. You can change the font, the size, the color, the time before they appear, and so on. In other words, you can play with the subtitles of any video to make them suitable for you. Moreover, the app supports the following formats: SRT, TXT, SUB, SSA, SMI, MPL, PJS, VTT, and AAS, among others. You can also use the gesture controls to quickly modify any subtitle-related parameter as well.

Ad-free with MX Player Pro

The main difference between MX Player and MX Player Pro is that MX Player Pro is ad-free. You will not find any differences between the two in every other aspect. No mod or beta makes it possible to have the free version without ads. The only solution if you want to remove the ads is to download the APK of the Pro version. Otherwise, the app performance is the same in both versions. Both apps allow you to stream your movies directly to your TV, PC, or Mac. You will not need any special Xvid codecs.

One of the best players for Android

Download the MX Player APK and discover one of the best options available in the field of video players for Android. This app provides many features to help you watch your movies in the most comfortable way possible, but you can also enjoy an easy-to-use, comfortable, and very accessible interface. Thanks to the child lock, you can also let the little ones watch a movie without them being able to leave the app or cause any problems.

Yes, MX Player is a free app for Android smartphones. You don't have to pay to install it or use its features. It doesn't have memberships, either, although there is a Pro version of the MX Player app with paid features.

How do I adjust the timing of the subtitles in MX Player?
