Maybe it’s intentional, but going through each album on the list it all feels too close together, like part of the same radio broadcast. And as a fan of heavier music styles, I struggled to find anything with any real musical intensity. ### 4/5 — Love it, but experiencing issues *2026-08-03* No criticism on the concept itself, but the app hasn’t worked for the last several days. **Developer response:** Sorry about this — you caught us mid-transition! A major update (1.6.2) shipped the day after your review that rebuilds the app and resolves exactly this. Please update and give it another listen — and if anything's still off, email support@cantilever-music.com and I'll sort it personally. — Aaron ### 4/5 — It’s *almost* perfect *2026-03-29* There’s a lot to love here, the articles are usually very interesting, the selections of music are amazing, from favorites of mine to new discoveries. However the flaws are pretty glaring and not so easily ignored, one of the biggest being playback. Recently the playback keeps getting interrupted after each song. When I began using Cantilever last month, it wasn’t a problem, but now the flow of albums keeps getting interrupted after each song, with me having to stop and press play on each song within an album. Once this little issue is addressed, I could see myself staying subscribed for a long time **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the kind words — really glad the music and editorial are landing for you. We've just released a playback update that should fix the issue you described, so we'd love to know if it's working better for you now. And if anything else comes up, please let us know! ### 5/5 — Wonderful Music Discovery Tool *2026-06-17* I love using Cantilever as a tool for music discovery. Most of the albums are new for me and very much outside my usual preferences. The selections are generally wonderful and very interesting. I add almost every album to my Apple Music library. The articles are also very good and enhance the listening experience. I like to read the articles as I listen to the music with my daughter. We read the articles together and talk about the music, which is wonderful. I would only change two things. First, it would be great if I could change the text size of the articles so the text is bigger and easier to read. Second, I don’t see any way to select how I want to output the music. Sometimes I am listening to the music on my headphones and my daughter es t to listen too. But I cannot easily switch to a Bluetooth speaker or my Sonos system. Aside from those two small problems the app and the music service are perfect. I’m very pleased. **Developer response:** Hi there, thank you very much for your very thoughtful response. We will look into both text sizing and options on audio output. Any further issues, queries or suggestions please get in touch at support@cantilever-music.com ### 5/5 — Great way to ditch the AI slop and corporate greed. Music lives! *2026-06-01* Streaming giants allowing AI slop onto their platforms was the last straw for me. Cantilever is a modern way to listen to music like we used to. To slow down and feel what’s gone into albums rather than the continuous noise and parade of dopamine hooks that come from corporate pushers. ### 5/5 — It works *2026-03-12* It works, you just have to subscribe on the web. Can’t subscribe in the app because Apple takes a big cut. ### 5/5 — What a find *2026-01-25* Takes me back to the time before algorithmic streaming. Some super interesting new music curated by people who care. Don’t love all of it but that’s sort of the point. John Peel would approve! ### 5/5 — Great idea - but issues *2026-01-12* Great idea, love the curated nature of the service and the price is good. But the app continually fails to load the list of albums. Contacted customer service. Update - new app revision seemed to sort issue, customer support excellent once engaged. **Developer response:** Hi there, appreciate the comments about the curation and pricing! We've now pushed the latest update which hopefully has resolved the error. Our support team did reach out on the same day to investigate and escalate the issue, but if you didn’t see that response or if you’re still experiencing problems, please don’t hesitate to get back in touch. We’re very happy to help further. ### 5/5 — A slower way to discover new music *2025-11-23* I’m loving using this app. Rather than using my streaming service that shows me a world of music, it encourages me to slow down and make some space for something new. I’ve discovered some great new albums. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
