### 5/5 — Spliff Mama Approved!

*2024-05-05, version 5.0.1*

Excellent app for Spliff Mamas everywhere!  I’ve been using this app for over 10 years and it’s still keeping me going to shows across the US!  😎😎😎

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-04-01, version 5.0.1*

Use it for all my bands I follow within a 300 mile radius. Life saver and free

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-01-17, version 5.0.1*

The best app for following live music!!! It fell off for a few years but the current team is doing great things with the app and website.  Long live Jambase!

### 3/5 — Location by Zip code doesn’t work

*2023-03-25, version 5.0.1*

Defaults to city areas for 60 miles. Will no longer save by zip code and smaller radius. The result is you have to read listings for shows in areas you don’t care about.

### 4/5 — Cannot view past shows in App

*2022-10-12, version 5.0.1*

A really helpful feature for the app would be to include the ability to view and search for past shows that you have attended and that artists have performed. The website has this capability. It should move over to the app also. Otherwise, it’s good.

### 1/5 — Can’t see all the shows

*2022-08-26, version 5.0.1*

I travel for music so I need to see all shows for my bands. The limit of 200 miles is useless for me and this makes the app useless.  As a developer I know this should be a simple thing to do.

### 3/5 — Not all events can be trusted.

*2022-08-12, version 5.0.0*

NOT covid related.  Just use alternative sources to verify.

### 5/5 — Music Tourist

*2022-07-22*

I need to be able to search more than a 250 mi radius from home.

### 1/5 — Can’t Scroll

*2022-05-19, version 4.0.8*

This app used to work great but not anymore. When you click on a band you can’t scroll down to see their upcoming shows. It just keeps buffering back to the top show you can only see the next couple of shows. 
It was a great app, told a lot of friends. Unfortunately it’s been like this for a while.

### 2/5 — Full of glitches

*2022-05-01, version 4.0.8*

For some reason it never scrolls right. The app is good in concept but very glitchy.
