Air Video app review: high-quality video playback no matter where you are

Reviews

Introduction

Whether you want to stream your videos online or watch them offline without an Internet connection, this powerful media player for iPhone and iPad provides everything you need to enjoy your favorite movies, TV shows, and music videos in the palm of your hand.

This is definitely one of the better video player apps that I’ve had the good fortune of using in recent months, and although it doesn’t have the jazziest of interface designs, it definitely more than makes up for it with the overall functionality and quality of video playback.

Air Video supports a wide variety of formats, including the more popular ones like .AVI, .DivX, and .MKV, so I think you’ll be quite pleased with what’s on offer here.

Easy Online and Offline Video Playback

Air Video - Watch your videos anywhere! has been designed to act as a comprehensive utility that you can use to streamline the way you manage, and of course watch your video library on your iPhone and iPad.

The great thing about this app is that you’ve got the choice to either stream videos over the Internet or synchronize them with your device so that you can watch them offline when you feel like it. This is great for, say, storing a bunch of Breaking Bad episodes for a long car ride.

Of course, being able to stream videos over your network means that you’re essentially able to free up a considerable amount of storage space on your device that would otherwise be taken up by large video files, and we all know how quickly that can happen!

Customize Your Videos Before Conversion

The essence of video streaming is maintained throughout the various features in this app, which I’m very pleased to see because it means that you can continue to watch videos while they’re converting, rather than having to wait for the transfer to finish entirely before commencing your viewing pleasure.

There are also a bunch of customization options available when you move files back and forth, such as zooming and cropping, so you can ensure that you get the best aspect ratio for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
