Our verdict on GOM Player
GOM Player is a media player for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS, aimed at users who want broad video and audio format support alongside subtitle tools. It plays more than 100 formats, including AVI, MKV, MP4, MOV, MP3, AAC, FLAC, and WAV. Subtitle options include external files, embedded subtitles, subtitle search, synchronization controls, and AI-powered subtitle generation and translation. It also supports URL playback, playlists, shuffle, repeat, and 360-degree VR video.
For format and playback coverage, GOM Player combines local media support with network playback and external codec search for unsupported files. The codec-search feature is specified for the Windows version, while the product is available across desktop and mobile platforms. This makes it a practical fit for users who move between devices or keep media in varied formats. Buyers focused on a single platform should check whether the features they need are available in that version, particularly codec search and other platform-specific functions.
The free player is the main value proposition, while GOM Player+ adds a Permanent License, AI video upscaling, and AI auto subtitle. According to the published pricing, GOM Player+ costs $22 as a one-time annual purchase and permits use on one PC at a time. Support is available through tickets and documentation, and the listed refund period is 7 days. Choose GOM Player if you want broad playback and subtitle capabilities without an ongoing subscription. Choose another option if you need a multi-PC paid license or a single product with identical feature coverage across every platform.
