What's a good Android app for playing videos that doesn't feel overly complicated or intrusive?

SPlayer seems like a good option. It's a straightforward video player, and from what I've seen, it doesn't bombard you with unnecessary features or permissions, which I appreciate.

I'm always looking for apps that are mindfully designed and respect boundaries, and SPlayer seems to fit the bill for video playback. It's important to me that an app doesn't feel like it's constantly vying for my attention or collecting data without my knowledge. I like that it focuses on being a 'fast' player, suggesting efficiency and a lack of bloat. I value simplicity, especially when I'm trying to wind down in the evening and just want to watch a video without a lot of fuss. Plus, I always check app permissions carefully, and SPlayer seems to ask for only what's necessary to function. It's a thoughtful approach that I find refreshing. I would use it to watch recorded lectures, ensuring a distraction-free experience.
