### 3/5 — A+ Developers

*2026-08-07, version 4.2.1*

App works great for listening to music. Only giving 3 stars because the new LivePhish+with does not work that great. I often start the show on the app on my phone and it starts from the beginning of the stream instead of going live. And it says it is live so you can’t fast forward and you have to quit and restart it multiple times. On another note, I submitted a review asking for an update to sorting and they fixed it quickly. Thanks guys!

### 3/5 — Got the goods, now fix the glitches

*2026-08-07, version 4.2.1*

It’s a specific app for a specific subculture.  I do love phish.  I don’t love the glitchiness.

### 4/5 — Best in technology.

*2026-08-03, version 4.2.1*

I remember the days when we desperately searched for tapes. Phish this incredible transcendental phenomenon that moved us like nothing else except Garcia. NOW. it’s all here at our fingertips within hours of last night’s show at perfect sound and pitch.  Thank you live phish sophistication.

### 4/5 — Great but could be better

*2026-08-01, version 4.2.1*

The app works great for the most part, and the sound quality is superb.  However, I’ve noticed that it can sometimes get caught up on CarPlay, where it auto-pauses when the screen of the phone turns off.  A restart of the app fixes this, but it’s an annoyance none-the-less.

One feature I would love to see is a “Connect” feature like Qobuz, Tidal, and Spotify.  It’s a shame that I can stream HD through the app to my phone, but to play it on my home stereo I have to use lossy Air Play.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-07-30, version 4.2.1*

Use this app everyday, love me some Phish.

### 5/5 — Ear chocolate

### 5/5 — Phish to the rescue

*2026-07-28, version 4.2.1*

Love now I can watch all the shows free! Premium subscription with Hi-Fi is where it’s at. Summer is much more ‘Phun’ now 🤘🏻

### 2/5 — Playlists are messed up

*2026-07-27, version 4.2*

Ever since the “With” update, all my playlists have gotten out of order and there is no way to sort them back alphabetically. Reached out weeks ago and they said it would be fixed that week but it hasn’t been.

### 5/5 — Wow

This band cares.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I want to give you money

*2026-09-02, version 4.2.1*

The app has not worked for weeks

### 1/5 — App is a trap!!

*2026-08-08, version 4.2.1*

You have to give them your email and agree to their terms BEFORE asking to pay 99$ a year to use.

### 1/5 — Sorting

*2026-07-16, version 4.2*

Please let us sort the order of our playlists. The app was updated and now playlists are in order of creation date instead of alphabetical. Please allow changes to sorting.

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2026-07-14, version 4.2*

Lost my stash when they made the switch. Should’ve kept those old shows grandfathered in if you didn’t to get the subscription. Won’t be keeping it for long.

### 1/5 — Sorting

*2026-07-06, version 4.2*

Please let us sort the order of our playlists. The app was updated and now playlists are in order of creation date instead of alphabetical. Please allow changes to sorting.

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-07-04, version 4.2*

Did you really mean to make it so the app stops playing music when you minimize or when your phone goes to sleep? Seriously, that is a deal breaker!

### 1/5 — Poor integration with sonos

*2026-06-25, version 4.1.17*

My playlists still won’t show up on the Sonos app. Plz help

### 1/5 — I already paid for SPAC 2025

*2026-06-16, version 4.1.17*

It is completely ridiculous that you would make us pay for this again. Bad

### 1/5 — trash

*2026-05-28, version 4.1.17*

app is so thirsty for reviews

### 1/5 — Great music, mediocre app

*2026-05-26, version 4.1.17*

I’m happy to pay for access to Phish’s music, but the app falls short over and over again. 

“Halloween”, “New Year’s Eve” and  “Island Tour” are three phrases that don’t return adequate results in the search bar. 

 I often can’t get to my *downloaded* music when I’m off WiFi/out of cell service.  

The app offers no access to lyrics, no still photos from shows, nowhere for users to keep their show stats.

It’s a great archive poorly presented.

### 5/5 — Apple Car Play/Apple TV

*2026-08-16, version 4.2.1*

Can you add a shuffle button to playlists for Apple TV and Apple Car play?

### 5/5 — 1

*2026-08-13, version 4.2.1*

Thanks for the tunes all these years!

### 5/5 — Game changer!

*2026-08-10, version 4.2.1*

The new Live Phish With feature on the LP app is just SO awesome! Every webcast and high quality audio recordings for a very reasonable, affordable price. A must have for all Phish fanatics!

### 5/5 — Bargain

*2026-08-05, version 4.2.1*

You can spend $63,000 and go to every show or just $100 a year and hear them all. No-brainer - just wish the app had better lights.

### 5/5 — Love n light

*2026-08-04, version 4.2.1*

🚀

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-04, version 4.2.1*

Love

### 5/5 — App Broken - 8/3/2026

*2026-08-03, version 4.2.1*

The app is currently stuck in a state for me where I can’t listen to anything with my base subscription. 

Pull up new Fenway show -> click on a song to listen -> subscribe now modal pops up 

I’m logged in and subscribed on the app… if I try and listen to the new Fenway show on my laptop I have no problems.  Anything in the app is being forced into the subscribe now modal, even though I am subscribed and logged in.

### 5/5 — ❤️💛💚

*2026-08-02, version 4.2.1*

Sure do love LP. The addition of LP with is all that dreams are made of!

### 5/5 — Best Band Ever

*2026-07-31, version 4.2.1*

Best music selection ever. I listen everyday and pay for lossless. I didn’t for years and wow a difference it makes. Cheers

### 5/5 — Phish rules

*2026-07-30, version 4.2.1*

Best music app in biz
