Please fix this problem because I really like the music that does show up like Joeboy and Tems. ### 3/5 — Mabassa *2026-04-18* Parce qu’il a pas toutes les chansons et des fois quand on cherche des artistes ou musique on ne les trouve pas et quand on rentre de recherche pour écouter les musiques il y en a pas où quand on rentre dans un compte y a aucune musique c’est ça qui dérange ### 4/5 — Sound boost *2025-10-20, version 7.8.0* I love the sound bossy enhancement ### 1/5 — Useless Ads *2025-09-04* It has come to my notice that Boomplay allows Ads to force users to watch, as if that’s not worse enough, now You can’t exit Ads anymore as it just hangs on the Ads forcing you to Download whatever useless App you don’t need, If this continues, I’ll be forced to Delete this App permanently from my Phone never to be used again and will always leave back remarks and Boomplay any time and where I come across it on the web or any page, Be warned❗️ **Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for the unpleasant experience caused by the ads. Ads help us enjoy vibes for free. At the same time, we are also working hard to strike a balance between ads and user experience. Our team will investigate the issue of delayed display of the ad close button and resolve it as soon as possible. Thank you for your constant support toward Boomplay. ### 3/5 — Fixed please *2025-08-27, version 7.6.3* I like this app so much But you can’t find all songs ### 1/5 — The foul app *2025-08-27, version 7.6.3* foul app, never install this ### 1/5 — Worst one ever *2025-08-20* This app is the worst music app I have ever seen, I downloaded this app create an account and even watch tons of ads just to download music. But it show me the artist with no music to download on the artists profile, every music I searched for the artist name will show but the music that will show under it are just junks covered by a dimwit. You guys are the worst if there’s anything below one star then trust me I would have rate you zero😡😡😡. **Developer response:** We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced.

Those aren’t adverts, they’re noise or should I say distractions. I use an iPhone and well, everytime and I mean everytime I open the app, I have a full screen advert that won’t go away even after playing. I just want to enjoy music and I have to use the first 5mins to watch an ad and the banner won’t even leave. If you put your connection off then open the app, immediately your connection comes back on, same issue. Please!!! Do Something, there’s a reason I’m on Boomplay and not Spotify arrrrrgh ### 2/5 — New songs not added *2025-07-12, version 7.5.0* Why are new songs always not added even after dropping for days? It’s so annoying ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-07-11, version 7.5.0* You don’t have control over your earnings. The app can just deduct your earnings without prior notice. 07/08/2025 everyone’s Bstars got deducted. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — My review *2026-04-09, version 8.2.2* Honesty this experience is one of the poorest. There are hundreds of songs that can’t be found on this app. I struggle to find genuine and real music on this app and there are probably a billion songs and artist that are missing in this app. It’s littered with micro transactions. Honestly Spotify and the likes of Apple Music are far ahead ### 1/5 — Бред *2026-03-07* Вообще ничего не работает никому НЕ скачивать! ### 1/5 — . *2026-02-20, version 8.1.1* OMG ADS scam app. ### 1/5 — Try to update new music *2026-02-07, version 8.1.0* Please your company should be watching music Channels so you can update music earlier on your apps, I have searched for bunch of musics but there is none on your app for example Olamide Ft Victony-Skido ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-01-30, version 8.0.2* Too much ads ### 1/5 — Add downloading *2025-12-29, version 7.9.6* Please add a way to download music to your phone and not just the boomplay app because if you can’t this app is kinda uslesss ### 1/5 — Had to delete the app *2025-11-05, version 7.8.2* I had to delete the app because the app is infested with micro transactions. It’s infested with ads. It is every 30 seconds. There’s going to be an ad. You can’t even download any music. You can’t search up any music do not download this app. It’s just gonna be the rest of your time ### 1/5 — Schrott *2025-11-01* Ich konnte noch nicht mal richtig schauen und wurde mit Werbung bombardiert. Direkt wieder gelöscht. **Developer response:** Es tut uns leid für die Unterbrechungen durch Werbung.

Пошук музики присутній. ### 5/5 — I love this App so much 🥰, over 6 years now I have been using it and it has been doing so good 😊 *2024-11-26* Nice App for any kind of music . Am giving it 🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆 **Developer response:** Hi BoomBuddy! We truly appreciate your kind words! Your happiness and satisfaction are our top priorities. ### 5/5 — DID NOT DISAPPOINT! *2024-10-19, version 6.9.0* Hey! I’m an Apple Music user who’s also a homestuck, however they had removed Treblestuck from Apple Music, which removed my favorites such as Karkalicious, Calignous Waltz, and Love Me Drowned. However, through seconds of research, I found this app! This app has Treblestuck and all my favorites, which I thought to myself was too good to be free, yet it was! This app is incredibly easy and has really helped me get over the disappointment of losing Treblestuck on Apple Music. Matter of fact, I’m listening to Love Me Drowned on Boomplay whilst typing away. Thank you for this incredible app that isn’t like Spotify which interrupts your music with ads if you don’t pay, unlike this one with understandable pop ups that don’t, or require a subscription just to enjoy some tunes! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
