Cloud-Music Player AudioBox Lands On iPhone

If you’ve got your music stored in the cloud, then streaming it to your iPhone might be difficult. Depending on which service you use, you may need to find a third-party app — one that actually works well, and is designed specifically for music playback. AudioBox is exactly that.

Compatible with a whole host of cloud-based storage services — including Google Drive, SkyDrive, Box, and Dropbox — AudioBox ensures that you can take your entire music library with you on your iPhone.

AudioBox isn’t just another file management app that has a somewhat functional built-in music player; it’s actually dedicated to music playback, and it’s packed full with great features. What’s more, it’ll stream your music from AudioBox Cloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, SoundCloud, Box, and even YouTube — one app does it all.

You don’t have to enjoy these services one at a time, either. If you have music stored in Google Drive and in Dropbox, you can sign into both and access both libraries simultaneously. It’s like a Spotify or Rdio service, where you’re in control of the music catalog.

Some of the app’s features include Retina artwork, AirPlay support, background streaming, artwork and track information, pre-buffering, lyrics integration, gapless playback, and the ability to share the tracks and albums you’re listening to via your favorite social network.

You may already be familiar with AudioBox — it’s been available as a web-based app for desktops for quite some time. But this is its first leap onto mobile, and if you ask me, it’s off to a great start.
