  • SHUFFLE!?!?!?!??

    Honestly, I’ve spent so much money on bandcamp. My entire life soundtrack is on there and I use this all day everyday. I absolutely LOVED the new update but, why… why on earth would we take out the shuffle all feature? There’s so many things in my collection, that being able to shuffle through all music helps me re-find past favorites… instead of building out an entire queue for like… a long drive for instance. That’s way too much effort!!! 4 stars until we get the shuffle all feature back :(

    This is also my first review ever on the App Store and I wanna make sure you guys know that I love what you do.. you’ve made my life what it is today by giving me access to millions of independent artists! Music is huge to me

  • Great way to support artists

    It’s a great way to support artist. Much better than streaming platforms with exploiting business model.
    The app needs a bit of an UX update but overall is good. Apple needs to allow direct purchase from the app without taking a cut.
  • Offline listening NoNo

    I thought I have purchased the album so I can listen the music offline but opposite listen what you purchased online what a wasting your money…
  • Serving my current needs for the most part

    The app itself should honestly be getting 5 stars from me, however, my main reason for even consistently using the app right now is ‘cause I’m stuck with an old iPhone (🤮) since my S21 broke and I can’t access my library of 11k songs, so in the meantime I’m stuck with what I can listen to via my Bandcamp purchases. The reason I give it 4 stars is because I can’t simply play all music from my collection on shuffle and can only play albums or singles individually

  • Good app, just needs some tweaking

    I think this is a good app for getting underground/indie music and finding new artists you would never have found out about unless you used this service. The issue is that it lacks a playlist setting (and if it does have one it is not very obvious) and has issues (with me at least) where sometimes the music won’t play and I have to keep exiting and reentering the app to get it to work (or sometimes it will just start working again without any of that). I think this could have been a four, or even a five, if some features were implemented and the issues fixed.

  • Pretty much perfect so far. Just one little thing that would make a huge difference.

    If you’re able to, I’d like to be able to pay via my Apple account thing. It might be possible if you can open up payment via the app, which would be another pretty good quality of life feature. Other than that, I really like this app because it lets me support artists.
  • App crashing

    Really enjoy this app. I've been collecting some my favourite tunes on this app but sometimes it crashes on the search. Tracks take way too long to load despite me having good internet. There's a lot of bugs with this app. I hope this gets fixed because it will make digging for music so much better.

  • Great app, but…

    I love this app. I love the fact I can get lossless downloads and support artists with more of the purchase going into their pockets. There is an issue with performance within the app. It appears the buffering is set relatively low in comparison with other apps. I’ll start listening to something and head down my drive into dead cell area. Where other apps continue working for the next 1-2 miles Bandcamp will cease streaming. Pls increase buffering to allow for streaming in areas such as this for longer periods.

  • doesn’t have a ‘purchases’ tab

    I purchased music but I have to go back out of the app to the website to find my purchases. When I play a track I’ve purchased in the app it doesn’t tell me I’ve purchased it/own a copy. I don’t know why the app is less functional than the website. I’m just going to use the website instead :(
  • Bad User Experience

    I want to state up front that I think Bandcamp as a service is fantastic. Being able to support creatives is a good thing. That being said, the app itself is trash. I’ve had nothing but problems with it since I downloaded several years ago and nothing has ever gotten fixed. I have constant issues with tracks restarting when play is pressed from anywhere that isn’t inside the player in the app, and sometimes when I’m listening to commentaries that are several hours long, I have to take the time to find the exact point I’m at, almost every time. Outside of that, however, the app is just outdated and has a pretty poor UI. There’s no in app way to switch which device I’m listening on, like there is in most other audio apps, and there really hasn’t been a major or update UI update in the years I’ve had it. People who are willing to support this service and the creatives who use it deserve better.
