Based on my past experiences, if you're a proud owner of a Mac or an iOS device, then most of your entertainment is handled by the Apple's default, iTunes and without any doubt, it is an overall media player as well a decent file manager.
However, most of the advanced users choose to adopt a better music player that is more accurate & less heavy for the RAM. Though iTunes would continuously serve your purposes but who doesn't love some extra features on his device?
Well, the app called VOX is a multi-device Music Player mainly crafted for Mac and iOS devices with insanely useful features that you would love to have. So, without any further chitters, let's start the review of VOX Music Player ( Scroll to unlock 50% off coupon code).
