## Recensioni
### [Bait and switch – nothing editable for free](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bait-and-switch-nothing-editable-for-free/)
[MS416](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ms416/) 12 Novembre 2025
This free player is only slightly different from the default WP player. The only
thing it adds is a mute button where you click to control volume. Mute? Does that
even make sense?I was disappointed that this WordPress page describes being able
to edit to match my colours and branding but every single function seems locked
behind the pro version.
### [Horrible support, does not properly implement Media Session API](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/horrible-support-does-not-properly-implement-media-session-api/)
[jamesynot](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jamesynot/) 22 Settembre 2025
After seeking help they just dropped off. They do not support Media Session API
for lock screen controls, so when the mobile browser goes to the Lock Screen, the
player stops. And of course they will keep my money even though it never worked.
THESE ARE NOT SERIOUS PEOPLE.
### [All player designs are in Paid version](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/all-player-designs-are-in-paid-version/)
[justeaten](https://profiles.wordpress.org/justeaten/) 1 Settembre 2025
all players are in pro version it only offers the default design in free version
and that design is easily achievable by a couple of css lines!!
### [Great Player, Easy Set-up](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-player-easy-set-up/)
[wlmorphis](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wlmorphis/) 5 Novembre 2024
We were looking for a player which gave us the ability to download. The HTML5 Audio
Player gave us that plus the ability to change all the settings. Installation was
nothing more than downloading the plugin, activating it and clicking on a setting
in the plugin to swap out the current player with the HTML5 Audio Player
### [Best and nicest plugin for me, thanks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-and-nicest-plugin-for-me-thanks/)
[haebo54](https://profiles.wordpress.org/haebo54/) 24 Ottobre 2024
Very useful for my project.
### [Speed control buttons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/speed-control-buttons/)
[voha888](https://profiles.wordpress.org/voha888/) 13 Agosto 2024
How to add speed buttons i.e. 0.8x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x in elementor?
