### 4/5 — 4/5

*2026-01-15*

Wish the pip included add song and a smaller aspect ratio but it works for Spotify better than default iOS, helps keep me from getting distracted while studying!

### 4/5 — Great app, but it doesnt work with my speaker.

*2024-11-22*

Hello, this is a great app, it works when i get off the app, or use headphones, but it doesnt work when i use my speaker to play music, it is a google nest, and it seems like it wouldnt respond, either pausing it, or skipping tracks. The speaker would still play music but the PiP wouldnt work, and when it hits the next track, it still wouldnt change. Please make the app support speakers. 

Thank you for you time.

### 5/5 — Bless

*2024-06-21*

Why we have this available natively in MacOS, and not for iPad drives me insane. Thank you for doing what they haven’t. I would say it sounds dumb, but you’ve gone out of your way to make an app to solve this hair pulling annoyance, so clearly I am in excellent company. 😁

### 4/5 — Still buggy with Spotify

*2024-04-17*

Can we get Plexamp support? Also when you pause it and wait a few minutes it seems to be unresponsive and I keep having to relaunch the window.

**Developer response:** Hi,

Unfortunately Plexamp does not offer a service for us to connect to that has all the information we require.

For the Spotify issue, it is due to how apps run in the background. We are seeing what we can do.

Thanks

### 5/5 — Nice app!

*2023-10-23, version 1.1.0*

This app is very helpfull. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2022-11-27*

Excellent app - just what I needed!

### 5/5 — Useful

*2022-10-25, version 1.0.4*

Works great but would love to see the ability to do the same with the podcasts app added if possible?!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-10-25*

Such a smooth app that just works! Love the display options, simple and straight to the point. Would love an option to resize the player, running this on my iPad Pro 11”. Send me a beta, I’ll test it!

### 4/5 — Time saver

*2022-10-17, version 1.0.4*

I’d say that your app saved me from days of scripting. However, please consider adding big buttons with a faded background to the display feature of the PiP. It can help people who are dyslexic and with bad eyes like mine lol. 

Well done once again

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2022-09-17*

Please add tap to open Apple Music app  and last.fm integration.
