### 2/5 — Too bad

*2026-07-03, version 11.4.2*

Tried logging in using my internet provider credentials but would never let me in.  I have no intention of paying for the same service twice.  And yes I did verify my login information.

### 4/5 — Almost there

*2026-06-18, version 11.4.2*

Always loved music choice. Only thing missing from the app is the ability to send it to another device ie chromecast or Apple Play

### 4/5 — Repeats a song again. Great UI design btw.

*2026-06-05, version 11.4.1*

A song keeps repeating again and again at around 8pm, every single day. I also suggest to remove notifications of “Music Stops”, “Am I still listening?” because when I’m at work, I cannot use my cell phone while I’m working. I need my music to keep going without going thru my phone and getting the notifications.

### 4/5 — Good App but has one bug

*2026-05-26, version 11.4.1*

I can’t use my cable provider to log in. It freezes every time! Otherwise great app!

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work with CarPlay

*2026-05-14, version 11.3*

App works perfectly normally. As soon as I plug in my phone to CarPlay, app stops working and all I see in the app is a spinning circle. Please fix this as the main reason I signed up for the trial was to try this app on my commute to/from work during the week.

### 5/5 — Great selection, great price

*2026-03-20, version 11.3*

Tons of channels to pick from, way more variety than radio. Awesome value for a fraction of the price of other services

### 5/5 — Music Choice app is an awesome!

*2025-12-05, version 11.2*

Music Choice app is an awesome!

### 5/5 — Still a MC listener for 21 years. Thanks for the fix of the app.

*2025-09-18*

Beginning: The app crashes after clicking “My Music” tab every single time. It also crashes on CarPlay when you trying to see what’s playing. Very buggy. Please get this app fixed.

Currently on iOS 26 beta.

UPDATE: That’s all I needed. It works like a charm. 5 stars now.

**Developer response:** Hi there - thank you for letting us know! 

In iOS 26, Apple has changed APIs that affected how we query our local database of your Favorites, which is why you saw issues in My Music and CarPlay, where we attempt to display those favorites.  

We've just put out a small hotfix in 11.0.1 that resolves this issue.  This was great to address prior to the official release of iOS 26 next Monday, so thanks again. If you could please update to that new version and verify that it now works appropriately that would be much appreciated!

If all works as expected, please reconsider the rating you've given the app!

Regards,
Music Choice.

### 5/5 — best daily music

*2025-09-10, version 11.0*

Music Choice allows me to quickly use music for every mood. Amazing for sleep, relaxing, and travel.

### 5/5 — Great variety for the price!!

*2025-05-08, version 10.6*

So many options. And it's so affordable!! No commercials. Win-win.

### 2/5 — Music

*2025-05-08, version 10.6*

for the last week or so, my songs are not completing they stop with like 10 or 12 seconds left. Then the next song starts a few seconds into the next song please advise.

### 2/5 — Skips too much

*2025-03-21, version 10.6*

Skip skip skip holy cow this app skips a lot. It repeats the same song and skips and you’re paying money for this app.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t sign in to TV provider

*2026-07-06, version 11.4.2*

I’m sure it would be great, except I when I reach my TV provider’s (Cox) sign in page, it totally locks up.  Im on an iPhone 13 running iOS 18.5.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-12-12, version 11.2*

I have spectrum tv, yet I can no longer play MC on my phone. And no, I will not pay for what I already paid for.

### 1/5 — Cable Account

*2025-07-14, version 10.7.1*

Having trouble signing into app.  Listening to music choice on my cable provider while I write this review.  Signing in from home network to reauthorize my account.  Signed in with credentials and in loop.  How do I contact person to assist????

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-05-04, version 10.6*

They created Music Choice+, only to discontinue it! Why? We should’ve brought this to smart tv years ago and you’re removing it?

### 1/5 — It’s as bad worse than than lowest rated reviews!

*2025-04-20, version 10.6*

This shouldn’t be this hard. It’s not unreasonable to connect your cable provider account and then just start listening. You have to create a profile, then an account, and even then it doesn’t work. Too much frustration = 1 star.

### 1/5 — Cancelation

*2025-04-17, version 10.6*

I deleted the app because it didn’t have the first song I looked up and I bought I forget what trial or whatever it was but I’ve since deleted the app for going on four or so months now and the cancellation process is a pain and it won’t let me complete it and I’m still getting charged for a app I’ve used maybe a total of like 10 minutes

### 1/5 — Who Wrote This App?

*2025-03-11, version 10.5*

This may turn out to be one of the worst apps to ever exist.  Nearly all selections seem to be weird one off recordings, instead of what you would normally expect.  It’s also very odd how you have to navigate around.

### 1/5 — Music

*2025-02-21, version 10.4*

Keep stopping

### 1/5 — Hawaiian

*2025-02-02, version 10.3*

No Hawaiian music.

### 1/5 — Limited music

*2024-11-09, version 10.1*

On the classical channels they play the same dozen or so pieces over and over and over.  Lazy programming.

### 5/5 — Music Choice:

*2026-07-05, version 11.4.2*

Is it possible that you could put on two patriotic channels, one instrumental and one regular, since you already have Christmas channel and in July you have Christmas in July on the season channel? Thanks!

### 5/5 — Childhood trauma 👍

*2026-06-06, version 11.4.1*

I lwk saw this same music thing on the tv when I was like 4 years old and the logo scared me so bad I had to hide under my blanket years later at 15 I found out what brand it was and it came out to this and made me remember what I used to be scared of so nice to see they haven’t changed the logo so 5 stars but the app is kinda buns.

### 5/5 — Music Choice: I really appreciate this App so very much and I’m so glad really Blind accessible now￼

*2026-05-24*

I really love this a whole lot. I’m glad you finally made it. Blind accessible and I really enjoyed this app. Thanks for making it so I can be able to see the whole Channell list and I could be able to choose favorites. I’ve been a fan of Music Choice since 2000, when I first started listening to it on TV. Thanks for everything!!!!!!!

**Developer response:** We're so glad you're enjoying the update, Chester! Thanks for being a listener!

### 5/5 — OMG Directv Music?

*2026-04-24, version 11.3*

New Age and Soundscapes channel are legendary. Wow, never knew they had an app.

### 5/5 — Great Channels

*2026-04-03, version 11.3*

Just play. No endless scrolling or having to choose songs for a playlist. Easy. Simple. I need more of this in my life.

### 5/5 — Great for when you don’t want to manage a queue!

*2026-03-31, version 11.3*

I grew up with Music Choice on the tv and I’m so glad it has its own app now. It’s become my go-to when I don’t want to think about curating my own playlist, making it easy when I have people over or want background music during the workday. Spotify playlists are starting to feel too repetitive but the MC channels are so well curated that I can just hit play and trust that I’ll enjoy what comes on. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — More Than Music — A Feeling I’m Grateful Still Exists

*2026-03-29, version 11.3*

I just want to take a moment to sincerely thank the team behind Music Choice for continuing to keep this experience alive. Growing up, Music Choice was something truly special to me. It was more than just background music-it was a space where you could relax, discover new songs, and just let the music play without interruption.
There was something magical about turning on the TV, choosing a channel, and letting the music guide the moment without needing to search, skip, or think. Finding out that Music Choice is still here today honestly brought me so much joy. Being able to access these channels again, whether on TV or through the app, feels like reconnecting with a part of life that many of us didn't realize we missed so deeply.
What makes Music Choice stand out is how simple and pure it is. No ads, no pressure, no endless scrolling-just curated music that flows naturally. In a world where everything feels fast and overwhelming, this kind of experience is are and incredibly valuable. The variety of channels is amazing, the interface is clean and easy to use, and the ability to just press play and relax is something I truly appreciate. It’s perfect for setting a mood, whether it’s a calm night, a nostalgic moment, feeling festive with some holiday tunes, or just having music in the background while living life. I genuinely hope Music Choice continues for many years to come. It provides something that other platforms don’t - a peaceful, effortless connection to music. Thank you for keeping this alive! It truly means more than you might realize. This isn’t just an app—it’s a feeling, a memory, and a moment of peace. Please keep it going for as long as possible. <333
