  • Buggy

    I love this app but am finding it buggy on iOS 14. If I am listening to an album and I click on another track the tune stops but the next one doesn’t start and bashing the play button does nothing. I have to restart the app. If I am listening to a track in one album then I go back and select another album that usually works but then trying to select the next track in that next album I get the same problem

  • Fantastic app

    Support artists directly, not massive conglomerates who pass artists a shaving of a subscription if they’re feeling generous. This is a great app with loads of artists to dive into. The only issue is that they STILL only let you buy digital music from the desktop site, which is odd given you can buy physical merch from both the site and the app. Perhaps it’s an Apple restriction, not wanting competition with their own service, but it’s irritating nonetheless. A dedicated app for playing/downloading music would also be nice, I find the UI fine for playing the odd track but rather clunky when using for extended periods.

  • Love (with suggestions to help)

    Bandcamp is a phenomenal source of music. I say this both as an avid listener and creator, the app is phenomenal and my only suggestion for improvement is by adding a digital purchase button right after you add it too your wish list. So many times I have thought to myself “I want to support this artist” but have to come back to the album 3 times before you prompt me with the “💔”. Give us the chose to directly support the artists we love on the spot, not via third party internet browsers or desktops. Nothing but love for the curators, community, and especially the musicians.

  • More than just a music platform

    Bandcamp is an easy to use platform to buy all your music needs while knowing the artist are getting looked after. Bandcamp has also gone above the call of duty to support the greater community by raising awareness and funds! Keep up the great work.
  • Bandcamp has a poorly designed user interface.

    Bandcamp is awesome, but the mobile and tablet apps are horrible with a poorly designed user interface. Accessing my collection is not intuitive or easy. If I buy music I want to easily access the music I own and scroll through it by artist, by album, and by song. Right now I have to search for something, click my collection and I can only scroll through something related to the search. I want to be able to scroll through my entire collection.

    I want to purchase music and merch from the bands I love and the bands that I am discovering, this is why I love Bandcamp. So why not design an app that can enhance this platform and enhance my enjoyment of these artists?

    This app needs easy scrolling and searching of each person’s collection.

    One should be able to scroll through artists, albums, and songs.

    On should also be able to scroll through the order in which the music was purchased.

    One should also be able to scroll through the order in which the music was released by the artists.

    And why do some artists have multiple pages? There needs to be well ordered discographies. When I discover a band I want to see everything that they have released.

    Bandcamp: awesome for the bands, but it just needs to be a little bit better for the fans.

  • 100% get this app !

    I saved so much cash just because of the fact most material you set the price. Definitely my goto from now on compared to all other services before ! Also the artist get a descent cut of the money no matter how much the transaction.
  • Come on, iPad version please!

    I didn’t ever plan on writing an app or product review, but I have been driven to do so by my utter frustration at the lack of an iPad version of Bandcamp! I used to spend around £40 per month on Bandcamp music but the appalling web browser UX has driven me to source my music from elsewhere! Bandcamp is fantastic but this is such a let down. Are the development costs really that high?

  • Wonders for starving and supporting artists

    Bandcamp has an immense amount of music. Any type of music by any type of person. It’s all wonderful to listen to. Plus, it makes it easier to be able to listen to music from one of my family members, whose dream it’s been to create music. 10/10 would recommend if you’re looking for new music that’s under appreciated or you want to support artists that aren’t as above ground.

  • No playlist feature

    Love the site and the app works well, but seems geared more towards e-commerce than as a way to enjoy your purchases. With over 100 purchases in my collection, the lack of any basic playlist features or shuffle play option is severely limiting. It’s especially annoying when driving. I promote Bandcamp to anyone that would listen but I feel like the app is the one thing letting you guys down. Include the ability to create playlists from your collections and shuffle play and it would be perfect. Thanks

  • Needs iPad app

    I like the app for streaming Bandcamp albums I bought but there’s no iPad app.
