### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2025-11-28, version 2.0.0*

Doesn’t work. And there is no info on how it actually works.

### 2/5 — Does not work properly

*2023-03-31*

It’s a nice app, but when using it with an iPad, it only works if playing from the iPad speakers. If I use airplay to send the sound to a speaker, it will play for a bit but then stop.

### 2/5 — Great concept needs to be optimized

*2020-01-23*

Downloaded it but it went so slow. Once that is fixed it will be great!

### 5/5 — Sharing the Bluetooth speaker has never been easier

*2019-09-21, version 1.0.2*

This app is fantastic, despite some of the design shortcomings. All you need is the app and a Spotify Premium account on one phone, and everyone else connects via the web. It’s easy to get people access, easy to find a song, and the up/down voting makes it fun.

### 3/5 — Great Potential - Poor UI and UX

*2019-08-05, version 1.0.2*

this app could be great but it’s held back by the messy UI, could be fixed fairly easily.
