It doesn’t let you sign in

I tried signing in and it said apple account or password invalid and I literally typed in the right one

A sad shell of an app

I love Apple Music. It's my preferred platform to stream music, so you can imagine my disappointment with Apple Music for Artists and its lack of content. It's not like one thing turns me away from the app, but a collective:

First, there are so many desktop-exclusive features. I would rather there be no app at all than a halfway done one. We need support for all features on mobile!

Second, there are so many little bugs that make the app annoying to use. When i press the big banner "Get ready for release week" to promote my stuff, it just doesn't work. It takes me to the "add as a favorite" promo. And it constantly signs me out for no reason, which is really annoying.

Lastly, the missed potential. I think this app could be used to add animated album art to your releases. I'm tired of it being an "exclusive" feature that a lot of distributors make you pay for. Could've added the ability to submit a video for your artist profile. Could've built in better analytics or the ability to presubmit content for playlists. So much missed opportunity which is a shame coming from Apple! Spotify for Artists has so much more going for it...

So awful

The worst ever

Getting set up

I think the verifications were a little too much, and they should let you change the phone number your sending it to, as a first timer, I can’t get in at all and I was so excited! 😡😢

Mbruh

No matter what I’ve done the app has been completely unusable for nearly 3 years. I have a new phone btw.
