Its says “upcoming”. I have the app on my phone. Diesnt say I need or should do anything ### 1/5 — Not for Apple phones *2025-10-04* The App does not work on Apple phones. All day it said the concert had not begun. It also said it was scheduled for October 10th, not October 3rd! When I went to troubleshooting page it said it was for Android phones, ### 1/5 — Won’t let me create account *2025-10-03* I’m even willing to pay to watch, but I can’t if the app won’t let me. Very frustrating. ### 1/5 — Not Working! *2024-10-05* Very frustrating on my iPhone! Got up and did as instructed and even looked up the help option but got nowhere! It ought to be more user friendly! I’ve Never had this kind of problem- plus I listened last year on same device! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t play. What’s the point? *2022-10-02* I just downloaded this onto my iPhone 13. In sitting right next to my router. The streams don’t play. Just buffer. ### 3/5 — Live events not started? *2025-10-03* I can stream on YouTube but not in the app? ### 5/5 — All of ‘em *2026-01-01* I love this and listen all year. I was at the first bluegrass festival and went for 20 years. Thanks again in heaven Warren for all you’ve given us. Love, Marianne ### 5/5 — Solid *2025-10-05* Friday I had trouble getting the app to do anything, but it all worked out by the evening. I spent the weekend streaming Hardly Strictly in my back yard with friends, and it was great. Some of my friends had no idea what it was, and it blew their minds that “this person is singing this right now in Golden Gate Park.” Thanks for making this available! I did have to use the other HSB app to schedule what I wanted to watch, and used it as a reference for who was up on which stage. ### 5/5 — One of the best events in SF! *2025-10-04* Where in the world can you see so many musical legends in one place AND for FREE! Thank you to the Hellman Family for donating this wonderful gift to SF and the world. ### 5/5 — Best way to see and hear HSB! *2024-10-11* If you can’t get to California to be part of this annual festival then you need to get this free app! Live coverage and streaming of the events and highlights of years past with artists like Peter Rowan and Moonalice. ✌🏽🦁💙🎼 ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great streaming *2024-10-05* I love seeing the performers up close.
