### 3/5 — Not bad of an app. But takes forever just to make 10 cents .

*2022-12-31, version 3.0.24*

Listened to music about 2 hours and made just about 10 cents. Tbh loved this app, but you have to buy a boost just to get more points . Which I feel like it shouldn’t be that way. Also, some songs will give you a lot of points and some not , which I assume it just depends on what the song is . I really think it’s unfair . So just watch out for this app, wish there was some apps that paid like 5 cents for one song I wouldn’t mind it . This app I kind of do and don’t recommend because it takes forever just to get $1. Took me about 10 hours or even more just to get to $2 which is just straight out unfair . But it’s money I guess .

### 4/5 — This app is good!

*2022-09-13, version 3.0.24*

Current is an amazing app to earn while listening to music! I just wish they would add apple products such as AirPods and Apple watches and much more! But overall this is a good app for a broke teenage boy like me! Also, I wish they would add an option to redeem your points for a check! Also I wish you could earn more than just 600$ a yr, if we could earn more than 600$ I would give this a five but everything else is really good! And I hope they would add a feature to remove your friends after we send 3 invites because I accidentally sent an invite to everyone in my contacts, so I wish there was a feature for that as well!

### 3/5 — Enjoying the music

*2022-09-06, version 3.0.24*

I would love to rate this app higher but a few let downs. I noticed that the points you earn have dropped considerably from when I first downloaded it. When I have done the Bonus Bucks I don’t notice an increase of the points I am earning. I am still earning less then a point while Bonus Bucks is active. My biggest problem is that when I redeemed my points for a smart watch worth the most points and never received it. Customer Support did give me the points back after 3 months, and yet I still never received what I wanted. What is the point of the rewards if you never receive them? That is the most disappointing part of the app. That and the decrease of the earning of the points. It feels like they are making it take so long to do anything it has no draw other then listening to music.

### 4/5 — Similar to other reward apps but with music

*2022-07-21, version 3.0.24*

So far so good. I mean, I haven’t used the app for more than 24 hrs yet but it seems and sounds legit based off other users and their reviews and I do like the concept of earning points/currency just for listening to music but the only complaint I have thus far is the app stops you from earning by playing music by asking you to watch a short video and then the video never loads. :( Hopefully just a glitch and I start earning without having to do so many other tasks and surveys because they usually drive me nuts. lol

### 3/5 — Improvement’s could be made

*2022-06-24, version 3.0.24*

There are some cool things about this app like how the layout isn’t confusing or like how there are other ways to get point besides listening to music but I do have some issues. There are practically no videos to watch when you press the watch video option. I also wish there where more gift card options as well. Like new gift cards weekly or something. I also wish they would list the artists in the station when you go to search up a specific artist. Also when I go to put in my email I get a notification saying that it’s connected to a google account. Because the email I’m using is partnered with google???? Like that’s the only email I use.

### 3/5 — Good music, crashes a lot, earning is not what advertised

*2022-06-03, version 3.0.24*

The stations available in IPhone version are very good. That being said, I downloaded with the anticipation of earning for listening to music. Battery is being drained, low power power stops background refresh and then I get a message saying earning is disabled due to inactivity. Or so I thought. Turns out it just does it randomly despite me being hooked up to a charger above 60%. May revise review if these issues can be fixed. I deleted and re-downloaded the app which made the earning disabled error disappear. However with the price of having to invite 3 more people to unlock earning. Let’s see how round 2 goes.

### 3/5 — Generally Average

*2022-04-10, version 3.0.24*

I’ve been on this app for a bit now, earned maybe $30 overall. Nice bit of spare cash on occasion, but it’s got some annoying issues. First off, when looking to earn points from listening to music, you have to be actively using your device, otherwise the app decides you’ve been inactive. Second, every time this happens you have to watch a video to start earning points again. This would normally be fine, but sometimes there are no videos available for weeks, thus you’re stuck not earning points. Thirdly, the app doesn’t always count all of the songs you’ve heard towards points. You might be listening for an hour and only two of the 15 songs you’ve heard gain you money. 

Overall, this app is a lot like finding a $5 bill in the street one month. Fun random windfall, but you aren’t getting a ton of cash from this.

### 3/5 — It needs a little updating for iOS systems

*2022-01-26, version 3.0.24*

Overall the idea of the app is wonderful I love it and it’s FREE which also makes it great. It would have earned all 5 stars, but and idk if it’s like this for all system users or just iOS but I have iPhone, ok so it took me an entire 24 hours to figure out how to do ANYTHING other than listen to music, I didn’t know how to “earn”, I didn’t know what the point system was like, I didn’t know how to see anything of importance, and so on and so forth. So if they could make that a little bit more user friendly for iOS users I think it would be a definite 5 star app, once I discovered how to for all these things it really is a great app.

### 3/5 — It’s legit! I don’t really use it much but I’ll try to start!

*2022-01-24, version 3.0.24*

It’s legit! I’ve only cashed out once. I keep deleting it because I can’t keep it off of my Lock Screen & weather I’m listening to music on it or not it would make my phones battery die crazy fast and it would get hot along with freezing up a little here and there. I just wish you could get the cash the same day to at you cash out! Also wish that you wouldn’t have to download the games on the phone, I believe you should be able to just be able to play the right o the app! Just make an account to save your progress! So we can save space on our phones!! Make it to where it doesn’t take so long to reach your goal to whatever you had selected. 1 last thing..add cash app & a few other banking apps to pick from instead of just PayPal! Please and thank you!!! Whenever y’all can do this I will definitely rate y’all 5 stars!!!

### 3/5 — Good Concept

*2021-10-15, version 3.0.24*

I love music, so the concept of earning points/$ while I’m listening sounds like a win-win. However, the points earning process is very slow, and the points earning is unreliable. There have been several instances where I’ve listened for 30+ minutes without anything showing in my earning or points history, and it does not seem to be related to me not responding to an ad or other notification. Also, I have yet to figure out how to link my PayPal account, despite the fact that this is supposedly an option. There are currently only 4 options of items for me to purchase via the app, none of which I’m interested in purchasing, and the cheapest one is around 17,000 points…which will take months of everyday listening to achieve, at the rate at which points are unreliability awarded. Definitely room for improvement, but otherwise it’s just another radio station hosting app.

### 2/5 — latest update

*2021-08-07, version 3.0.24*

in the latest update a new feature was added every few minutes a popup comes up asking me if i am still listening and earning has stopped. This is annoying yes i am listening to music i should not have to keep the app on my screen and drain my battery to earn points. If i am driving listening to music i should not take my eyes off road to say yes i am listening. It now pops up on my watch to ask me. Turn this off! Update: getting generic response from several messages sent. The disabling needs to be fixed or taken off!!! I have app open and it still asks me if i am listening watch ad and then still disables. Also, sometimes there is no ad loaded so disables. Once disabled it won't restart earning have to uninstall reinstall app to get started again

Updates still need more work

**Developer response:** We are sorry for the inconvenience! This is a necessary feature to prevent people from earning points while they are not listening! Hopefully you can understand and change your review!

### 4/5 — Great for music not for money

*2021-06-16, version 3.0.24*

Disclaimer - if you go into an app and expect to make a buttload of money you need to re-evaluate lol 

I have used this app for almost a year, I have gotten paid out successfully. 

Pros:
Great for listening to music and discovering new music 
Not too many commercials 
Plethora of music choices
Works well with other apps
Gift card payout is much faster than it was before 

Cons:
It takes a LONG time to earn gift cards
Bonus Bucks doesn't work after a few days of making your purchase
A lot of replaying the same songs
If you don't log in every couple days you will be flagged as fraudulent - had a friend lose over 20k points for that

Overall, it's a great idea, the app runs well and it is really good for finding music you normally wouldn't. It has a few kinks, but what app doesn't 🤷🏼‍♀️ They have improved the gift card process quite a bit and now you do actually get them, it just takes forever to earn them. I think you should earn more for listening.

### 4/5 — Extremely well based app

*2021-03-11, version 3.0.24*

The app has provided a really good format on how to earn and redeem points. Unlike other apps, this one actually allows you to redeem prizes that it offers (aka $$$, AirPods when available, etc.). The points granted per song is not a lot sometimes but if you just keep on being both patient and persistent with earning points, then you will be assured to get the reward you want without fail. I really enjoy this app because I can put my phone on any station that fits my mood and I won’t have to look at it until maybe 5 hours, and it would gather point throughout the time. The small downside is that when the app is not on the foreground you’d have a 30 min time limit before you have to check back in. If not then you stop earning points until you watch an advertisement. Even so, a 30 second ad to listen and earn points is completely worth it. Highly recommend it!!

### 3/5 — There’s some work to be done

*2021-02-25, version 3.0.24*

Took me a minute to understand how to start earning coins and track my listening. I was on the app for over an hour prior to understanding what to do. Not intuitive at all. Most people are coming to this app for the rewards so make it easier. 
The app will close out unexpectedly when trying to load surveys. For those who don’t know, you can take surveys while listening to earn extra coins. 
I think there should be a profile option to set preferences there; find out how many coins you have, options on spending those coins, ways to earn more, update music preferences. As it is now, there is no profile option and you have to click multiple locations to find all of the above. 
Still trying to figure out how to trade-in coins for gift cards. The app doesn’t actually “payout” cash, they reward with gift cards. 
Overall not bad, but as I said, needs some work for sure.

### 2/5 — Where are my points!

*2021-02-02, version 3.0.24*

I’m literally going to go delete this app like it’s so annoying. At first the The app was easy to use and I got 1000 points or so after listening for 30 minutes just like the app said but after I  Listen for 30 minutes or more I only get less than 100 points. I’ve been trying to get points for the past few weeks but it doesn’t give me points for any songs I listen to. I even made sure that I watched the ad before I started listening. so it should’ve been given. I wasn't idle or afk from my device and I never got a notification telling me that it stopped earning. (I even checked if I have notifications on and I do!) after every 30 minutes or an hour I go check for points and I didn’t even get points so I will be deleting this app there’s no point of having on my phone if I can’t even get close to 10 dollar gift card.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Judgemental

*2023-12-06*

This app is very judgemental. It permanently bans people. I used this app 5 years back and I had earned the points needed for a gift card. During redemption, they asked for mobile number but it was a simless mobile and I did not know this prior. So I tried to redeem it from another mobile using the same account and it banned me saying fraudulent activity. I don't understand why this people does not allow a common account. Now even after 5 years, even after changing my devices for more than 2 times, I am still unable to install and use this app. It still says I am permanently banned. Even my mobile number has changed. So please be aware. If you make a mistake or they feel like you made a mistake then you will never be able to use this app or use your points. There is no resolution and there is no support team and they will not help
You to resolve the issue. Bad customer treatment.

### 1/5 — FALSE ADVERTISEMENT

*2022-04-05, version 3.0.24*

I thought this was a cool app at first but I redeemed a $6 PayPal gift card over a week ago and it said I would have it in a few days but I still haven’t received it yet. I redeemed it for the “bonus bucks” to earn twice as many points while listening to music but for the past FOUR days it says my earning is inactive due due inactivity and when I click the button to watch an ad to show I’m still active, it says there’s no ad available. So not only did I redeem it for no reason, now I haven’t even received the redemption. This is the worst false advertisement ever. Y’all need to step up your game. I don’t know if this is just some sort of glitch but I would appreciate it if this was fixed ASAP or at least addressed in some way so I know you’re at least working on a solution.

### 1/5 — Referring Friends

*2021-12-04, version 3.0.24*

I don’t know why I couldn’t find much on this topic. Current says 500 points per friend you invite. I do lots of affiliate marketing, so when I saw this I was excited. I started promoting the app with the special link they give you to refer friends and earn 500 points for each of them. I was able to get over 200+ sign ups through my link, but NO points were given to me. I thought this was odd, so I had my friend download and use the app in front me with the link I gave them. They literally downloaded the app and signed up in front me, and I still didn’t receive a single point for the referral. With that being said, it’s hard to understand what else the app could be lying about. With over 200 downloads, I’m pretty sure I deserve my referral points. 🙁

### 1/5 — Becoming very Disappointed

*2021-09-20, version 3.0.24*

I have been using this app for quite awhile now and while I have been able to earn several PayPal gift cards, unlike some other apps this one you actually do earn real gift cards, I have been having issues with some of the glitches that have been happening more and more frequently. When I contacted support in regard to my last problem I was instructed to delete and reload the app to see if this would fix the problem. I did this and lost all the points I had earned towards my next $20 PayPal gift card, I was about 96/97% along and anticipated earning it later today.  I also lost some other benefits that I had earned through my regular use of the app. It recognized that was already registered but I’m still down all the points I had spent my time earning.

### 1/5 — The app never gives enough points

*2020-10-12, version 3.0.24*

This app I really enjoy but the points are too low. It would take me forever to be able to make 20 dollars from this app. To much bs to be honest. I have had this app for months and still can’t make it to 1 dollar now imagine 20 dollars. I am guessing that the people that write that they make money on this is because they are either using referrals or they have been paid to advertise this type of comments. I have had several friends use this app and no one is able to make it to the 1 dollar . I am sure they pay that I don’t doubt but that you can make money on this that I really do doubt. Also I never get surveys so it’s just listening to music that is really the only god part. The Stations are good but other then that don’t leave your day nor night job.

### 1/5 — Kinda works, but is a SCAM!

*2019-11-05, version 3.0.14*

I would give it 0 stars if I could. While this app allows the opportunity for people to redeem gift cards, I would definitely warn future users that this developer is possibly phishing your information to sell your data when they don’t need you anymore. 

Had it for a couple of months, and never got to the point of redeeming my points. Today, I went on the app to click on a video ad, and I got an account suspension. The page told me to contact support, and I did. It went from 0 to 100, and instead of a suspension it went to say my account was BANNED and CLOSED for violating rules. You contact support and they accuse you of violating rules that you clearly didn’t.  You ask them what specific rule and there’s silence. Don’t waste your time.

People have been banned in the last couple of days, without a specific reason. I believe it’s because they know that they can’t afford you. There are better beer money apps out there, and ignore the fake bot apology that they are gonna post under this review to look better.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2018-07-05, version 2.1.9*

Downloaded the app off an ad saying you’ll “earn free money for listening to music”. I thought it was total BS but gave it a shot anyway. You don’t get “paid” by using the app at all, it “pays” you for every person you get to download the app. So I followed along and I sent invites to a few people and told them to just download it as a test. Well it shows that you have a balance of how much you’ve earned, but there is no way to redeem it. I searched the entire app, and there is nothing but the media, search, and the invite friends tabs. I tried tapping everything just to see if it was a button, but had zero luck.
I decided not to even bother using the app for its purpose as a media platform. I would have given it a shot, but it is just a predator of false advertising. I will not support an app that relies on such desperate ways to get people to download it, and can not uphold its promises.

### 2/5 — Great music app, but earning  not so much.

*2023-12-30*

I like the fact that you can make money while listening to thousands of different radio stations, but it would make things worth the while if we could make more money faster… $100 a month is nowhere near worth the effort requested from users. It takes a whole just to passively earn enough points to cash out $6! Takes way too long to reach cash out limits! You guys want too much time and effort (points) for such little pay…this app either needs bigger payouts or needs to give a LOT more points for each song and other earning actions completed so that it’s easier for users to make $10-$50 in a couple of days.. that’s how this app can improve. Users would be way happier with the app and you guys would get way more people to actually download and use the app.

### 2/5 — NEEDS A REBOOST!!!

*2022-12-28, version 3.0.24*

This app is getting on my nerves! Everyday I’ve got a problem with it and I don’t know how to contact the developer but here because the app won’t act right long enough for me to search a way to contact anyone! EVERYDAY it’s telling me it’s having problems loading! And if I do get it to load it only plays my music for about 10 mins and it’s down again! Every time I try to play a game or do surveys it shuts down in the middle of my activity! It’s frustrating to keep going through this I’m losing all interest! This didn’t start happening until you changed to the “Mode” it’s taking me a year to only be 47% of my goal cause I can’t ever earn with this app it keeps shutting down. Before when it was “Current” I would at least reach my goal twice in one year but this “Mode” thing I just can’t keep the app ever running long enough to gain any points. So I keep my phone plugged in as much as possible to try to gain points that way. You really need to do something about this. I’m NOT referring anyone to the app because it’s not worth it in its present conditions

### 2/5 — I can’t earn points anymore, so I can’t even redeem anything after listening to music for hours

*2022-09-25, version 3.0.24*

So when I first got this app it was probably around two years ago and it was pretty good, you barely got any points but that’s what I kind of expect. there’s rewards you can redeem with your points to give you a little bit of contacts I listen to music I don’t know maybe about 40+ hours and I have 5700 points and some other points from my referral. and to redeem a $10 gift card it cost 19,000 points. so I was pretty motivated I thought that if I were to listen to music for a year I can redeem $10 of a gift card pretty good. also if you’ve never uses that before in order to get points you need to watch an ad and then you can earn points for like another 30 minutes and then you had to watch another ad but for the past year and if not more. you can’t watch an ad. I just re-downloaded the app from offload, and I still can’t watch an ad and it’s again been over a year this is very frustrating because I’ve spent so much time listening to music and hopes I can redeem a gift card but they’ve never updated this. but if they were to fix his problem which I’ve contacted them before and they have not I would change my review.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — It’s real!!!

*2022-09-09, version 3.0.24*

So I have been using the app for about a year now and the first time I redeemed my points for a gift card I was shocked because I got a credit card digital cards with my winnings yes it does take a little bit of time but for the most part if you listen to music constantly it’s easy to get money back for doing nothing but listening to music something that you do already and then if you wanna earn stuff faster just do the surveys once in a while and those will create boost but I’m hooked

### 5/5 — Hahahaha

*2022-05-04, version 3.0.24*

Hahaha jsjsjs I’m sorry but I’m sorry for your reply lol lol I have a good time at the best time for that too but I’m not feeling well lol I’m going to have some fun 🤩 but I’m not doing it anymore lol lol 😂 I’m so happy to see hear see ya soon lol I don’t know what to say about this video lol lol I don’t like the pictures of ur hair and that’s okay lol I love you so cute and cute I miss your birthday and I’m sorry for your birthday so I hope you have an awesome 👏🏼 day love you bye love ya ya soon I have to wait to get my car back lol 😂 I’ll be there in like five hours I have a good day at school lol I’m good with you and I’m going back in my house lol I was like oh yea I

### 5/5 — Mode earn is awesome

*2022-04-25, version 3.0.24*

So here’s why I say mode earn is awesome and I would also like to add that they are not only awesome but a must have for everyone personally I’ve tried almost every app out there to find an app that actually pays out and this one is it. Now I don’t always or should I say ever comment on apps or voice my opinion. But for mode earn I absolutely have to express how grateful and in love with this app that I am. This is the most legit paying app I have ever come across and for that I say thank you to mode earn creators for not false advertising and actually being real and legit.

### 5/5 — Feedback on current music app

*2022-02-02, version 3.0.24*

I like the fact that you can listen to the music any where an you pick what type of music u like an it goes off of that an plays that type of music as well as it gives you amazing offers to earn more money more ways an at faster paced an I would an have told family an friends as well as a couple people I don’t know that I highly recommend this app to be downloaded an that if it wasn’t in the top downloaded apps of 2021 that it will be in 2022 an that in order for that to happen we need to spread the word

### 5/5 — Music

*2021-06-25, version 3.0.24*

I listen to the country station while I work from home, REALLY love that the music is not repeated like some other apps. They play songs that I haven’t heard in a long time and new ones I have not heard of. Highly recommend this app. If you work from home , a wide variety of music to fit just what you are looking for and you earn points for listening. The only thing that is kinda aggravating is I have to keep enabling that I am listening so I can earn my points but I still give it a 5 star because of the variety and never any repeats. Download the app today and star listening!

### 5/5 — Current

*2021-06-10, version 3.0.24*

I have been a faithful participant with current for almost 2 months until now. I found my account suspended for fraudulent activity. I didn’t feel I did anything wrong. I read over the rules and terms again and came across what I did. I don’t remember reading that and I would never have abused it if I knew. You are not to use more than one device at a time and yes I had done that watching the videos. Now my question to Current is if I make sure I have Current on only one device can I use the app again?? I promise I’m one that knows better and that will not happen again. Please don’t permanently close my account. Also I did redeem a couple of days before this happened and it’s now been 5 days. I will be getting my redemption right? It was the $10 one.

### 5/5 — Great music app! It pays!!!

*2021-03-02, version 3.0.24*

Probably one of the best music apps out there for download. Extremely limited ads, works great, plays a lot of variety, also has alternative ways to earn as well. Unfortunately I’m running current version with my iPhone 8+ and the play first song as well as the play for 30 minutes achievement will not unlock. I listened to it all day yesterday? Charging feature is not working as well. However on my Samsung Tab A, everything is working perfectly! I will try uninstalling and reinstalling to see if maybe that fixes problem if not it may be on the Developers side, maybe someone can advise me on this issue?

### 5/5 — Current review.

*2021-02-03, version 3.0.24*

February 3, 2021 I have been using this app for about four months now and at first I was spectacle about being able to earn real US currency I just listen to music but as time went by I saw that that they don’t just get money out of thin air they play popular good looking music andAnd you don’t have to keep watching a whole bunch of commercials like most ads it’s one commercial every two hours and it’s pretty reasonable they have all sorts of prizes they have surveys games great ways for you to make money I would highly recommend you trying this out about and the more you use it the more money you make them in the more money you make you great at

### 5/5 — Absolutely loving it

*2020-11-02, version 3.0.24*

So far I am absolutely loving this app!! This is the first time I’ve encountered an app as legit as this one. Usually I’m met with apps that say that all you have to do is so-and-so when you download it, and then they reveal that you need to jump through hoops just earn points. Like what? I don’t even know how they manage to stay afloat, probably ads, who knows. But Current Music actually gives you the points they said they would. No wondering how long it will take for your points to come in, no tricks, nothing! I’m so glad I found this app. Plus you get to listen to music genres YOU want :) what’s not to like? I hope you guys stay this way forever, what you’re doing is great and more apps could learn from you.

### 5/5 — Good but takes a long time to earn points

*2020-08-14, version 3.0.24*

So far so good. I’ve had it for about a year but have only been using it more recently. The only thing is, is it takes forever to actually earn enough points to get anything. Each song you get earn anything from 5-20 points depending on length of the song but it takes 6,500 points to get a $1 gift card. 

Also, after a little bit, if you exit the app they send you a notification saying if you don’t come back to the app and click saying you’re still listening and you have to watch an ad, interrupting the music mid song, or else they will shut off the point earnings.
