Good collection but room for improvement
Having built an extensive collection over the years, I’m finding space an issue. As such, I’m looking for an affordable streaming service which gives me access to my music, selecting good alternatives and something I can listen to on all devices, independent or combined and with share options for the whole family, something I can do with my own collection. It seems you need a premium for all the family to share which doesn’t seem fair when they have access to your own library. £10 a month is competitive but I still don’t consider this cheap when I can have my own music streamed via cloud drives at half the cost. Also, there needs to be an easier way to find a track and add it to your library, and additional folder without having to heart it. A star rating option and smart library option would be a very nice feature. Apple Music takes lead in this instance but Apple don’t like playing nice with others and is the only reason I won’t use there service which does have better features.Show lessharleysol492
Great app 😄but needs work
I love the app and everything about it but there are some things that need work. I would like the option to select a song or music and move it to the place you want it in saved songs and playlists, just like what you do with the photos in the photo albums, because I like to listen to my music in a certain order and every now and then I add a new song and I want to put it in a certain place or I accidentally remove a song I saved and I have to save it again and remove all the songs above it and re save them to the right order and it’s just too long and hard because some songs get deleted and some aren’t the same as the ones i have, even if they have the same name and artists, so I have to save the new one and remove the old one. What’s also annoying is that they say there is now 30 minutes ad free, but most of the time it only plays 2-4 songs and then ads come up. So I want it to be a bit more accurate in the next update. I would also like it if you could add the soundtracks to the documentaries Walking With Dinosaurs and Dinosaur Revolution, Disney’s Dinosaur movie, Dot and the Kangaroo (with sequels that follow it) and some classic Australian songs because I would like to listen to them on this app. PLEASE FOLLOW THESE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE NEXT UPDATE.Show lessAiden Raptor
Apple music is better
The app has so many ads and you can only shuffle your songs instead of being able to switch around songs without premium. And you only get 6 skips an hour. It’s like you’re begging for money.Cringelord74
What have they done, this was my favourite app until...
This was my favourite app of all time, until 2018 when the app became just unusable to use on any phone under the sun. It still working great on my MacBook Pro for now, but why did they charge the app for iPhones. This new version is so bad that it kills any enjoyment and is just impossible to use with my iPhone (for the free or paying version.) If it’s not broke, then don’t fix it. Will it’s broken now and has gone from being the best music app ever made to the worst by letting problems into its settings that where not there go begin with. I can’t lessen to a full Albums any more, and was planning to buy the app until I found out that it still will have this setting problem. I lesson to albums and not to playlists, so it’s now been no good for me. This makes me feel very so angry, as this was the app that I used the most. Thanks for killing my music enjoyment with this new app updated version. It’s horrible to use and is a really nightmare to find ones way around. I’m only 35 and my friends kids who are only 13 can’t get there heads around it too. Great!!!Show less🔷Jim
New update
I’m really unimpressed with the new update. There’s barely any changes I like - enough to make me consider moving to another app. I personally dislike the new layout and aesthetic, the artists and albums aren’t in alphabetical order so I have a hard time finding something specific, I don’t see the point in having the “you added” feature; you have to click on the playlist, then click on this to get a separate page listing all the songs.. it’s just not as smooth as before. I can no longer hold down a song to open up options such as add to queue, the “saved songs” has changed to “favourite songs” which changes the whole concept so I feel that I have to rearrange this ‘playlist’, the ordering of my playlists has also changed, meaning in one playlist I have to scroll through over 1000 songs to get to the recently added ones, some of the location of buttons has changed which makes the app harder to navigate around at first, playlists can no longer be grouped together in a folder, you can’t see how many songs are in a playlist/how long the playlist is (in hours), the description of a playlist is no longer a feature.... and I’m sure there’s a few more things!! Very disappointedShow lessMeahx.
Spotify sucks!!!
It’s a well known fact that your app drains the battery life at a very rapid pace!! No secret about that!! Total garbage!! Waste of money. & yet this is a well known fact Spotify does nothing to fix the problem!! But you’ll gladly take money from people for this garbage service!! You people should be embarrassed by your total lack of respect for the customers that are paying money & lining your pockets with cash!! Absolute trash!! & I’ll let this be known whenever the debate arises whether to pay for Apple Music or the by far inferior garbage that is Spotify!!Show lessJJZ 79
Hours wasted
For some reason I was playing Def Leppard to get entries into contest. The songs are not playing in order and stop and does not play next one. I’ve lost so many points being frustrated for the last 4 hours playing and still not getting points. What the hell is going on I have great progress till today with tunespeak,.Show lesshilkywood
It’s now bs and not worth it.
If you don’t have premium it’s the worst music app there is. You use to be able to pick a song and actually listen to it. Now you have to shuffle the artist and hope you get the right song. You only get 6 skips an hour?? You guys are sell outs like everyone else. I thought the ads were meant to balance out the free subscriptions but now it’s just a joke and there is still adsShow less#hatedemi
Suggestions for classical music especially:
I listen to all sorts of music & this app is great for being able to find your way outside the usual “bubble”. But for people who listen to classical works there are a few issues that could probably be easily improved.
First is to be able to see who has recorded a particular piece, then choose which soloist/conductor/orchestra/choir etc to download. At the moment there’s little choice, and it’s very difficult to see (at least on my iPhone 6s+ screen) who is featured.
Second, when I am listening to something with a lot of movements I want to see quickly which one is playing- but the scrolling info is so slow that the screen goes back to sleep before the movement number goes across - or else it’s something like the Rachmaninov variations on a theme of Paganini, with 24 short sections and the movement is finished before its number reaches the screen. Can I set it to scroll faster? Or touch it to pause & enlarge to see all the info at once?
Third thing is lack of important info like recording date & the other things mentioned above, ho was in he band for this recording etc
Lastly atm, I haven’t figured out how to just play my playlist and then stop - it goes on to play random stuff and totally spoils the mood. Annoying.
But overall a good app, worth the money.Show lessScienceteacherMelbourne
