MX Player is an exceptional video streaming app that offers an unparalleled viewing experience. One of the standout features is the subtitle downloading capability, which allows me to download subtitles for my favourite TV shows and movies. Additionally, the translating feature is incredibly useful, enabling me to translate subtitles into my native language.

Why the ui became more weird, sophisticated? I used this video player since earlier version, more than 14 years ago. It was in better condition for old mx player back then. Now all time/clock , telco, Internet data also displaying while we watching the video make display small & not fulfill our phone screen. when i watching in vertical mode the virtual pause, stop, next, previous also disappeared. I had try change few setting but nothing happened. So frustrated!
