User reviews

Better than expected

I saw the lower reviews and was hesitant on downloading, very pleased with how it functions. If you download this expecting to play old iPod games or change certain things you can’t. But it’s a great little nostalgic app that frees you from switching apps

No ads/no subscriptions but missing stuff

This app is amazingly simple and true to its word: it mimics an iPod circa 2008. I wanted to fine tune my experience and up the haptic feedback to a higher setting, because you don’t get a whole lot of haptics by default, and with a modern device’s touch screen, pushing the menu/pause play buttons feels very strange. You don’t get the clicky feedback you otherwise would on a real iPod. Included in the iPod main menu, are “settings” and “extras,” neither of which actually work. Tbh that was my only let down. I simply wanted to see if I could turn the haptics up to a higher setting, to perhaps get a more push button feedback, similar to the one you get with Apple’s 3D Touch/Live Photo feature on a normal iPhone. Well, hopefully the devs read this and add that functionality. When they do, it’s def 5/5 stars from me!!

This app wasn't working

This app wasn't working, every botton wasn't working no matter which one I pressed. This app was a waste of my time. Fix this bs

Like it

It clicks like the iPod classic did .. I had one .. yes I wish it was as big as the phone but it’s fine .. if you want the playlists to shuffle just go to the Apple Music and have them shuffle there then go back to the retro app and they will in that app .. not a big deal to me at all .. For what Apple allows you do with this app I’m impressed 🥰

The app is good, but it doesn’t let me enter the extras menu for some reason.
