VLC is a free and open-source video and audio player from VideoLAN. It handles a wide range of formats for both local files and remote playback — the F-Droid listing covers audio from MP3, AAC, FLAC and Opus to video in containers such as MKV, MP4, AVI and WebM, among many others.
It suits anyone who wants a single player for most media files without installing extra codec packs, and anyone who prefers to get Android apps from F-Droid, where each release is built from published source and signed by F-Droid. VLC is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0, and its source code is openly available.
This page offers VLC 3.7.2 from F-Droid in two variants: the primary download is the arm64-v8a build (version code 13070206, 47.35 MiB), recommended for most Android phones and tablets, and the alternative is the x86_64 build (version code 13070208, 49.08 MiB) for x86_64 devices. Both downloads are external official links from F-Droid and are not hosted on this site; the builds are built and signed by F-Droid.
