### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-11-22, version 0.16.1*

The app is amazing!
The only thing I am missing are some of the features of the web interface like playlist creation and filtering for artists and albums

### 2/5 — Loading..

*2025-08-22, version 0.15.2*

Doesn work. No connect. Fix it please

### 5/5 — Works fine

*2024-12-13*

Seems to have fixed previous bugs with exceptionally slow startup and skipping tracks.

Dark Mode would make it a 5 star app

### 2/5 — Works mostly fine UPDATE

*2024-07-30*

Works mostly fine, but will occasionally prematurely move to the next track (half way through playing) or stop playing after every track - requiring you to take off gloves/etc, pick up the phone and hit play on the lock screen again

UPDATE: new version doesn’t really work at all, over half the time it errors out with “could not fetch song metadata” this is after it now takes around 4 minutes to start. :(

### 3/5 — Nice

*2024-07-18, version 0.9.1*

Can we get a dark theme please? It would be awesome!

### 5/5 — MStream

*2024-07-01, version 0.9.1*

Très bonne APP pour du stream simple.
J’adore.
Il y a parfois un décalage entre les infos affichées et la musique qui passe mais c’est pas bien grave. 
Je recommande.

### 5/5 — Best mStream player

*2024-05-14*

This app works so well for my needs and is clearly well thought out and designed. Clearly the best choice for most peoples mStream needs. I can’t help but feel the developer put a lot of work into this project.

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2024-02-15, version 0.7.0*

So far the app is ok. You can flip through folders and play music. It is lacking quite a few features though. It would be great if this could be made more on parity with the android version. Being able to turn on the DJ or even pick a playlist would be great.

### 5/5 — Does what it should do

*2023-07-21, version 0.7.0*

Fast and lightweight. Really good and easy to use. Only a dark mode would be great.

### 5/5 — MStream iOS player

*2023-02-16, version 0.6.0*

I have been waiting for this ever since mStream came out. This is awesome. Thank you so much. I can finally use my phone and don’t have to worry about shutting off the screen.
