Saregama Carnatic
The App is very good but functionality can be improved. Currently it doesn’t continue with the playlist once you stop and restart - it goes on in a loop on the same song. Also, content for Carnatic music needs to improve a lot. You have a smattered of contentbut many current stalwarts like Sudha, Ranjani-Gayatri, Unnikrishnan, L Subramaniam, Sanjay are glaring omissions.

Good collection but loads slowly
Everything is great in terms of content but i got the 1 year subscription but loading is too slow. Gets annoying, pls increase server capacity to support paying users fully.
Good concept. App fails to live up to the promise
Love the content and the way it’s curated. But lots of features are missing on iOS. If we miss the theme of a day there is no way to go back to it. No history is made available.
No way to save music offline. Although the help documentation’s mentions clicking on three dots to get to this option I don’t see it on the iOS app. Same goes for marking a song as a favorite. No option on iOS.

iTune for Hindustani Music
A must for practitioners, learners or listeners of Hindustani Classical Music. My guru says good listening is as important as it is to practice and riaz classical music. I come here to listen!
The app could work on improving the following:
1. Performance - song loading, favorites and off-lines could be made faster;
2.Features - I would have liked some more categorization and analyzers. For example, search by BPMs, Signatures, etc.
3. Take inspiration from DJ app to het looping of an alaap or taan would be wonderful for practicing musicians like me.
Thank you for bringing such maestros together.. under one roof.

Like it but app could be improved
I like the collections and the themes everyday. It would be great to allow to find/save these themes of the day , so that I can play them again. It would also be great to provide more albums of the artists - the collection is stagnant.
The app should also allow for more features. App often malfunctions and replays the same song when paused and resumed.

IOS support limited
Seems like the best features (including discounts on subscriptions) are available only for Android users and not IOS. Streaming option on IOS devices limited to Google cast and not the Chromecast. Decided not to renew subscription until these problems are fixed (if ever they are).
Hopeless
They are too expensive.
I bought one song $1.99)
Could never download

Excellent collection, if you can login every time (good luck)
The Collection seems good and I enjoyed their curation, and weekly cycling for the first 2 months.
Then the subscribe screen came in. This was about 6-8weeks ago. since then have not been able to listen to anything.
Issue is on iPhone, with and without latest updates installed, the subscribe screen requires you to login for listening, worked ok for the first 2 months. Then how many times ever you enter login details, it does not let you in, it comes back to the subscribe screen again.
Slightly different on iPad, login wants email address, then it says click link on mail message, keeping this screen open.... its the iPad and app get hidden when you go to mail. Anyway tried quite a number of times, including after iOS 11, using split screen, no use, goes back to subscribe screen.
Doesn’t seem to behave on iPad like an iPad app, more like iPhone.
I have revised the rating after the login issue was sorted, you have to go to settings and login. So there is still a small bug there hopefully it’ll be sorted soon for other customers benefit.

Good beginning
I subscribed to this service for about 2 months now. Great music, fairly good collection and easy to navigate. Almost religiously I listen to Theme of the Day (carnatic) every day. Variety of themes, full of interesting information and she delivers it beautifully. Major, major drawback is the loading time and it is frustratingly discontinuous even within the song. Hope they will use higher speed servers to meet the demand.
Great start. Looking forward to more listening.
