Only works with purchased songs
Does work with Apple Music, the only songs available to play are ones I’ve purchased individually:(
Absolut sinnlos
Rausgeschmissenes Geld....
Not worth it
Did not do as advertised
Doesn’t work with Apple Music
Cannot find any music on my iPhone.
Stops for no reason
Plays if it feels like it. Just stops between songs for no reason.
Doesn’t Work with Apple Music Subscription
I wasted a dollar. It was a gamble. For others, don’t gamble, it doesn’t work. No where in the description does the app disclose this. I reread it and it says “local media” on the iPhone. I download my Apple Music subscription songs to save data, so my music is “local.” This app will only cast the music I’ve paid for/purchased. It does not play music downloaded from your Apple Music subscription.

Every thing is really good except one thing
Good looking app finds music very well connects well and visual looks good when casting. Has a very annoying loading time in between songs. Not sure if it’s due to my connection but when casting from my Plex it does not do this. If there is a solution to this I’ll give it 5 stars.
But other than that very worth purchase

Does the job
It’s fine.
Solid app
So glad to find this app to play music stored on my phone via Chromecast. Just wish it organized albums with their actual tracklist and as subfolders beneath the artist name
Response from developer
Hey thanks for the review! We'll get a new version out to change that soon!
Not worth the money. Try other apps first.
This doesn't do what it claims. Couldn’t successfully cast reliably. No response from the developer. Can truly say that it’s the most significant waste of money spent for an app.
Can see podcasts that are on iPhone, but not music. Can cast photos, but REALLY slowly. Videos skip the beginning. Then the app stalls after the first couple of casts and has to be restarted. No tutorial or instructions provided. And so on....

Average
It works unstable. Sometimes the application freezes while trying to change song.
The app does not consistently work (which is an understatement)
The app should chromecast tracks from an iPhone file source from the first track on an album to the last track. I even paid for it to do this basic function.
It has yet to chromecast an album end to end without locking up. Most of the time it’s one of the first tracks and it freezes mor often than not. I can get over the slow buffer and weak interface but this is not acceptable
Very disappointing as there are not a lot of options for apps that chromecast your Apple Music from your phone. When it infrequently works it works great. I don’t understand the positive reviews and hope I am missing something or I have a misbehaving iPhone. I will gladly extract this review if an explanation of the problem is provided and can be corrected.

That’ll teach em.
When a product I own tries to coerce me into paying them to use my own stuff, it bothers me. This app gets around that. I do have years of music collecting on my hard drive, and I have a favorite selection on my phone. This app allows me to play it any way I want, streaming onto Chromecast. I love hearing my music on the surround sound I have hooked up to the tv. This makes it simple to do. Would recommend.

Response from developer
That was our exact reaction when we bought a Chromecast and the reason the app was made! Thanks for the review!
Very much Disappointed
I am very much disappointed. Feeling bad that I had not read the reviews.
Very bad quality of music that gets streamed from phone. Super annoying.

Pretty good solution
I’m using Cinch specifically to cast my iTunes library to Chromecast Audio. It works as advertised most of the time. Occasionally gets hung up, but has been a minor inconvenience in comparison to the bigger picture of inexpensive, good quality, and very flexible while house audio powered by Chromecast.

good app but needs refinement
It does what it does. For playlist play, I hope it displays more info on browse pages and now playing page. Like track number, duration, even album info. Now it only displays title.
Doesn't do anything....
Great way to start...a nice "c" stuck on the TV screen and that's about everything this app does...makes me laugh.
Waste of money
Very poor and no reply when I reported issues to the developer. Do not waste your money on this app!
Music stops playing at random times
I am trying to use Cinch with a Google audio device. Cinch will just stop at times. Not responding to any touch on my iPad. I have to completely shut down the app and restart it. Annoying.
The best of what's available but...
The Cinch app is the best of what's available but it is not dependable. You may get a song or two, perhaps (when lucky) close to a full album but when streaming music, it will fail. And each time it does, the greater the chance it will do it again that evening.
