Is it true that v1.4 can't even handle .ape?

I can understand probably why .tak can't be supported, but I didn't expect .ape to be ineligible. Many existing windows components simply don't work? Thanks.

Not sure, what you're talking about.
This APE file sample plays fine for me in 1.4.
TAK should also work, at least it did back in 2017 (provided via ffmpeg) according to the Android changelog.
Would have tested it as well but there don't seem to be any sample files on the net and I'm too tired to convert some on my own.

Both my Monkey's Audio and TAK files play perfectly perfect on my iPhone.

Sorry for not being clear. I was referring to the Android v1.4 version on my Pixel 7 Pro. No issue with iOS v1.4 on my iPhone 13 pro max. The problem occurred whenever i use ftp software to transfer the .ape and .tak files over from my windows 11. And they are 100% failure during transfer. So I thought to myself this must be due to the program not supporting these file formats to begin with. I guess I was mistaken in one way or another if now there are two people describing they can. But even though I have used another method of transfer called "nearby share" and the file lands in the path called "Internal Storage>Music>, it's still not visible on v1.4. So I must say something is still off here. 

Regarding .Tak, how do we add  ffmpeg to Android/iOS? Thx

There seems to be a problem with FTP transfers occurring for some users - see also: https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,124830.0.html

However I can't reproduce any of this. What FTP client do you use to send files?

Both TAK and APE are properly supported, including latest APE format revision (10.x). The problem you're seeing must be bad file transfers.
