### 4/5 — Bro what..

*2025-03-02, version 2.42.4*

WHAT HAPPENED?😭 YOU COMPLETELY CHANGED THE APP? IT ISED TO LOOK LIKE SPOTIFY!

### 2/5 — It is ok

*2024-02-01, version 2.42.4*

I'm not trying to be rude but when I try to look up a song it shows different songs, songs completely different from the song I wanted can someone tell me how to use this app correctly

### 4/5 — Search function

*2021-07-01, version 2.42.4*

Wonderful app however I don’t know if I’m using the search functions in my library. I seem to have to scroll way too much.

### 2/5 — Libreria strana

*2020-12-07, version 2.42.3*

Deluso dalla libreria e canzoni si possono sentire per 1 minuto al max... boh. App che ha poco senso

### 3/5 — Needs more sorting options

*2020-06-27, version 2.41.10*

With a large library, the current sort options are not sufficient.   To start, a sort by letter of the alphabet would be a huge improvement.  If you could instantly move to the T’s to find Thin Lizzy, it would be better.  

Also, the manner in which artists are alphabetized leaves a lot to be desired (it’s done on the first name of an artist - so, John Zorn would be in the j’s and not the z’s).   

 Additionally, the app should ignore the word “the” preceding a title or band name.  Bands aren’t all put in the T rack at a cd/record store.  The Beatles should show up in the B’s and not in the T’s.     

With these fixes, I’d change the review to a 5.   I sent these suggestions in to the developer, but in reading the reviews, this was suggested a year ago, so my hopes are dim.

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2020-04-30, version 2.41.7*

It’s forever saying i have no internet connection. I’ve talked with them often. They have no clue y this happens. I’m assuming they have a junk server. Can’t upload stuff anymore as a free member =  why do i bother using it?

### 2/5 — Вылеты! Постоянные вылеты!

*2020-01-23, version 2.41.4*

iPhone se iOS 13.3, после обновления на последнюю версию, приложение перестало запускаться. При попытке запустить - вылетает (закрывается). Исправляйте быстрее, вся музыка в нем!

### 3/5 — Signing out losing data??

*2019-11-09, version 2.41.3*

I downloaded the app 2 days ago. When I go to logout it says all data will be deleted. Will I lose my music? Should I delete the app? Bedsides that the app works just fine. I’m scared to lose my music.

### 2/5 — Happy to pay for music

*2019-11-03, version 2.41.3*

So what happened with the stellar labels that used to be represented here? Yep Roc, Bloodshot, Merge, New West, Secretly Canadian, You’ve Changed, Mint, Super Secret, Dead Oceans, Big Legal Mess...the list goes on.

### 4/5 — Needs to be CarPlay compatible

*2019-08-02, version 2.41.2*

I enjoy the ease of downloading and streaming my music,  but lack of Apple CarPlay support is drawback

### 4/5 — It’s a good app but....

*2019-06-20, version 2.41*

I really enjoy this app but there are some issues that really should be fixed:

1) When I’m wearing headphones, I can only go back to the previous track or the next track. I can never play or pause with my headphones. This feature should really be implemented.
2) It really should show me the album name when I’m looking at the lock screen. It only says the title track and the artist name.
3) The option to add a playlist cover would be really nice cause we could be able to personalize our playlist however we want.

That’s pretty much it. The app is good but the major problem for me is the first one cause I really wanna play and pause the song without touching the screen to do it.

### 3/5 — E music

*2019-03-04, version 2.37*

This app does not move with your iPad which is highly irritating 
Wide range of music 
Font is too large though
App generally needs sprucing up

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2024-01-12, version 2.42.4*

No music plays in this app

### 1/5 — Not bad, but there is much to strive for!

*2020-03-04, version 2.41.5*

The application is not bad. But there are points requiring improvement. Make a universal version of the application under the iPad. Now the application is adapted only for iPhone and on the iPad does not open in full screen. For this reason, controls and menus are very small and text and fonts are fuzzy. Of the biggest drawbacks, this is the impossibility to add or change the album cover after downloading to the service. Add this feature as soon as possible. And now there is only one way out. If you forgot to add a cover to the file before uploading to the server or the cover has a low resolution, you have to delete the entire album, add a picture on your computer and upload a new one. I would also like to have an equalizer in the application.

P.S. Лень писать на английском.. Изменяю оценку и дополняю отзыв. Крайне ненадежный сервис. И если, в случае бесплатного использования, с недостатками ещё как-то возможно мириться, то отдавать им свои «заработанные» я бы точно не стал! После падения сервиса, начиная с марта 2020 года, у них сменилась «бизнес-модель». Теперь бесплатно в облако можно загрузить всего лишь 250 треков. Остальное платно и на основе ежемесячной подписки. Хорошо, что так ничего и не загружал до этого! Это ж надо додуматься, брать деньги за загрузку своей же музыки скачанной пиратским путём. В таком случае и за эти же деньги проще оформить подписку на Apple Music, и не нужно напрягаться с поиском и загрузкой самому. Бери и слушай! Тот же Гугл предоставляет лимит в 50000 треков, как говориться - почувствуйте разницу ! ! !

P.P.S. Все, приложение можно удалять! С сегодняшнего дня весь бесплатный функционал убран и free аккаунт бесполезен! Отныне пользоваться сервисом возможно только по подписке. Облако - умерло R.I.P.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-01-24, version 2.41.4*

### 1/5 — Bad Update

*2020-01-24, version 2.41.4*

*2018-11-30, version 2.34.1*

### 5/5 — Лучшее приложение

*2021-03-22, version 2.42.3*

### 5/5 — Great site!

*2020-09-25, version 2.42.2*

*2020-02-26, version 2.41.5*

You can upload your favorite songs to the cloud for free.

### 5/5 — One of the best music player for IPhone

*2020-01-30, version 2.41.5*

I really love this app and use it on two phones(android and IPhone)
It easy to use and all music in one place without limits(almost)
No Ads, no lags, no bugs, and Offline listening, it really cool :)

For future upgrades I wanna see
1)the ability to delete songs and albums by marking them, not one by time
2)set cover for artist(not only for album)

Thank you guys so much, I really enjoy with that app
With best wishes, _the_t1m_
