  1. 5/5Favorite app ever

    I personally love this app. I have had it for over 4 years, and it’s been an app I use daily. If you are thinking about getting it, for sure get the Premium plan, no ads, endless skipping of songs, shuffle play, and a good amount of more things. One thing I will say is frustrating is the constant change of the like button to songs, they removed the heart for whatever reason and with that they made adding a song to a playlist but not your liked songs a lot harder, with a drop down feature you have to scroll down to find the playlist you want. I will say that I love that you can get to choose if you want your playlists public or not because let's be honest some playlists do not need to see the light of day but can still be enjoyed in peace. I also like what they did with the front page, being able to just swipe right to click onto our profile and access our settings much easier. My most favorite feature that might not be new but I did just discover, is on that same page where we access the settings and our profile there is this “Recents” tab where you can go and see all of the songs you’ve listened to and the amount of times I’ve used it to find a song I liked in someone else's playlist, or a podcast episode I was listening to but didn’t save, my lord I love that feature so much. But overall it’s a really good app and something that if you get it, it will be used in your daily life if you are a fanatic music listener.

  2. 5/5Stop changing the queue!!!!!

    Stop changing the way the queue works every single time I use this app! I swear Im this close to subscribing to apple music 👌. Just let me keep the option to play my liked songs randomly or not. Also why did I suddenly lose the option to play my liked songs based on genre?! You guys are killing me with the constant changes. Heres what the people want! To be able to play my liked songs randomly or in or order!!! I like the option sometimes! I also still want to be able to sort my liked songs by genre. Why did that suddenly go away!? I used to like the way you could channel what you want based your mood ‘like “happy”’ and whatnot but whatever, I could deal with the changes you made for whatever reason. Can you please stop changing the way liked songs work every single time I use this app!!!! Its so frustrating when I cant play my liked songs randomly all of a sudden and now I cant play my liked based on genre. FOR WHAT REASON!!!!! Stop making stupid changes all the time! You’re pushing your people to apple music, I swear. I have subscriptions to you both but I still dont want to start using them over you, but I will. All I ask for is some consistency!! I want to be able to play my liked songs by genre, and I want to be able to consistently play my liked songs randomly or in order. I dont know why you change these all the time but you are really pushing to start using apple music or even soundcloud. Keep the consistent good features, and stop changing for the worse all the time!

  3. 5/5Please go back

    I love the app but not so much the new update. Please give us a retro date. Also the option to go to your liked songs library and not all your playlist with out liked songs as a playlist. To add whenever I like a album the songs do not save, I have to like each song individually for it to save to my library, or “liked songs playlist”. Whenever I click on the artist it only shows me the artist I follow and then artist suggestions based on music I like. Please just go back to when we click on artist it shows us all artist that we have saved in our library. Or simply JUST A RETRO-DATE FROM AROUND LIKE 2016 please. And the hearts next to the liked songs make no sense when we already know that they are liked songs. You can easily click on it by accident and not remember what song you deleted. The queue should show what songs you recently listened to. Not saying it should show every last song you listened to but at leas like the last 20, just a suggestion to make the app better. Lastly theres only alphabetical quick scroll on our liked songs “playlist”, which should just be a music library as stated before. We need alphabetical quick scroll in all playlist, or at least the ones we decide to put in alphabetical order. Also you should add back the “skip song” when adding an album to a playlist with a song from the album already in it. We only have the option of canceling adding the album to the playlist or just hit add anyway. When will people behind apps realize theres never a need for a unnecessary update.

  4. 5/5Where’s the functionality?

    1) I can’t play JUST a playlist or JUST an album. I press play on a playlist or album and the next song doesn’t play on that album!! Why? ⭐️ MOST NEEDED FEATURE⭐️: 2) I can’t quickly add songs to a playlist. I have to touch the “...” and individually add songs to a playlist rather than being able to select multiple songs to transfer to a playlist. This makes it a pain to create playlists unless you simply add an entire album to a playlist, which is the only way to add multiple songs at one time to a playlist. I noticed that you can do this at the bottom of the playlist after you scroll through your songs, but only for “recommended” music which is great, but it’s random and not mine sometimes. You should be able to scroll through your saved music and click on each song you’d like to add to a specific (or multiple) playlist without having to click “...” first. For example, I hate to compare but Apple Music has a feature where you can click “Playlist”>”Edit”>”Add Music” which then brings you to your library to add music from there OR you can search music to add that you have not yet saved or downloaded. 3) I love the idea of being able to discover new music and whatnot. Thought I’d add at least one good thing to the list. It’s a great app, but until these issues are fixed, I’m keeping it at 3 stars. Edit: 1st issue resolved with their great tech support team! However, still only 4 stars because I can’t use the mobile app to add multiple songs at one time to a playlist. (This is only a big deal because it takes forever to create a brand new playlist).

  5. 4/54 Stars but…

    …This is the #1 Music app I use but there’s too many adds and there’s song that get added to my playlists that I make I think that’s bit of a problem because there’s certain songs I wanna listen too and half of them I don’t even know. for example the Ayesha Erotica playlist I have there’s like 10 other songs that I don’t know, I had like 3 songs that I wanted to play and it would skip those and put other ones. My app also doesn’t work sometimes, I was at school and I was playing music and it just randomly stopped playing… and I have cellular data so it should of worked and not stopped but yeah, And for the podcasts I also think that since there’s no adds for those I don’t think it’s fair for there to be adds for the music and not the podcasts, Like yes I love to not be interrupted while listening to the five nights at Freddy’s podcast but like when I listen to music during class I don’t wanna have to take out my phone every 5 seconds to restart the app so it goes away also I don’t like how on other apps I sometimes can’t play the music like I don’t know if that has anything to do with ya’ll but when I play like Roblox or granny or whatever I can find because I’m tired of watching caseoh… I don’t like how I can’t play music. Also the premium is so expensive and I can’t get it so maybe drop that and I bet if you just get rid of the adds (And pop up adds) You would have so many more people wanting the app trust me… But overall I love this app just get a little better! 😋
