A media player app is usually an extension of a website or another app, and needs to convince users that it can provide a better experience than the one they've already chosen. As such, a media player app must offer advanced features and functionality while still being simple to use. It can grow by encouraging users to share the app with friends and family members who might be interested in using it, and by encouraging brand loyalty from its users by offering exclusive content from the app's creators. Media player apps should also educate their users about how they can get the most out of their new platform.

A media player app faces risks related to the violation of intellectual property rights (such as music playing rights) and potential legal liability for content users post on or upload to your platform. It is recommended that you work with your legal counsel and/or content partners to ensure that you are acting within the scope of any applicable licenses when using third-party content.
