### 3/5 — Simple Guide

*2025-07-18*

Just downloaded this app to my iPad. Something that it did not show up my music files.  Where to start coz I can't find any guide/documentation.  Thanks

### 4/5 — Normalization

*2024-03-10*

You need to add normalization so that each track sounds and plays back on the same volume level right now you don’t have that. give me that and I’ll give you five stars.

### 3/5 — unable to add songs to playlist queue

*2023-07-16, version 15.0.1*

I am receiving error message: The operation couldn,t be completed. (CoreMesiaError Domain error - 12865). Songs were downloaded first to ios device.

### 4/5 — A Really Good Playlist Mixer

*2023-06-02*

I have used Music DJ for a couple of weeks, and I’m enjoying the mixing of playlists. I actually have a couple of pre-recorded voicelines that I tried mixing into the song playlists, and the crossfade feature turns your voicelines and music into an automated DJ (or custom radio station on your phone, a music podcaster without you running the show live, etc.)

There’s two things that are holding me back from giving this a 5-star review:

1. The ability to use pre-recorded voicelines for song announcements. I know you can use text to speech or pre-record your voice for announcements, but I want to have the ability to take an edited voice clip and use that as the announcement.

2. The app doesn’t use your setting on Music. So if you have a song set to end earlier in Apple Music but really goes on for a few seconds without any noise, you will get dead air if you don’t manually move on to the next song, which definitely kills the vibe.

If those two items are addressed, this app deserves 5-stars. This is a really good playlist mixing app, for sure. :)

### 2/5 — So far, I can’t figure out how to make a simple playlist!

*2020-04-19*

Shouldn’t this be easy?  And shouldn’t there be a help page?

**Developer response:** For Music DJ information (help) press the Information Button (circle with i).   The Music DJ buttons are located at the very top of the main application view.   This button view is scrollable (left & right),  the info button is the last button on right.

Please email us at liavante@icloud.com for any future question or suggestions.

### 5/5 — Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

*2018-02-12, version 6.1.3*

You just changed my music user experience to the best levels yet!
This is an awesome app and works on everything including my old iPod !!!

Works Perfect ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2017-06-08, version 5.4.0*

I finally found a music player that easily crossfades (etc.) music in a playlist.  No hassles and pretty easy to get the hang of.   Close to perfect.

### 5/5 — Great for personal use

*2017-06-08, version 5.4.0*

Like this app

### 5/5 — Great App

*2017-05-21, version 5.3.4*

The variety of features in this app help to make your personal DJ event a success. The easy to adjust playlists and the ability to fade in and out make you sound just like you know what you're doing. Easy to use. Easy to learn. Easy listening.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2017-05-21, version 5.3.4*

I love this app and would definitely recommend it!

### 4/5 — Great app, good crossfade control

*2017-05-18, version 5.3.4*

Wish the had watch integration but great app

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-03-29, version 5.3.1*

I really like this app. The only problem I find in it is the tempo or song speed. When I change the tempo to 105 or 110, it does not play all the songs I selected at the assigned tempo. Beside that, it's great.

### 5/5 — I like it!

*2017-03-26, version 5.3.1*

This app is good for what I need.  I'm surprised to now see other reviews because I think they would be good.  There are instructions in the app to help explain how to use it.  

The cross fade is what I like best, but there are so many other features suitable for use at parties, dances, and even in my fitness classes!

### 1/5 — DJ PRO

*2022-03-21*

I bought this it’s crap don’t work freezes can’t put my Apple Music on it what a rip off if any ones know a trick to it be nice but otherwise useless

**Developer response:** Apple Music songs are DRM protected and cannot be played by Music DJ.  Unless the Apple Music API (Application Programming Interface) is enhanced to support DJ style apps (source: https://affiliate.itunes.apple.com/resources/blog/apple-music-api-faq/ ), this won't be possible.

### 1/5 — Only plays music that was synced directly to iPhone

*2021-06-22*

I used to buy and download albums manually before getting Apple Music. All of this music that’s in my library works with the app but all the songs that I added to my library through Apple Music Cloud Library doesn’t work. So any song after 2019 doesn’t play on this play for me.

### 1/5 — Won’t even play any music.

*2019-09-27*

The app only showed some songs then when i tried to play them it couldn’t.

**Developer response:** There is a recent issue with sync'ing songs to devices.  To verify try to play the song using Apple Music you may get "This song is not currently available in your country or region" message.  

Connect your device "Reset Warnings" and Sync the device again within iTunes (Finder for iOS 13) should resolve this issue.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2015-10-09, version 4.5.1*

I really need this app for my birthday party that's coming up! The app doesn't let me add ANY songs from my library to any queue or playlist, it's as if it doesn't recognise when I tap! Please sort this out as soon as possible😔

### 1/5 — WON'T PLAY THE SONGS!!!!!

*2015-01-16, version 4.2.3*

I downloaded this app for my iPad because I wanted to have cross fading between songs. I CANNOT get the dam songs to play! I was prompted to add songs to the playlist but even when songs were added to a playlist I STILL get that prompt!!! It sure is a good thing this app is free because I would surely be demanding my money back!!! THANK GOODNESS THIS WASFREE!!!😞

### 1/5 — Closes down when song starts

*2012-10-13, version 1.0.3*

This app does not work. I choose some music for playlist,  added some request songs and clicked play.  The app minimizes itself and wont open from app listing at bottom of screen.  iPhone 4s with last iOS 5 ver.

### 2/5 — No off phone play

*2024-01-16*

Stops playing when phone is turned off , switching to a different app while playing , or when the screen time turns off . Won,t announce rmy own recorded voice or keyboard inputs . It will announce songs title’s between set end and starting of songs . Sometimes it gets stuck . Please fix .🫤

### 2/5 — Question

*2023-08-19*

I am a bit confused on how to add songs, make playlists etc.

### 2/5 — Only able to import 25% of your Apple music

*2021-12-07*

I’ve been looking for years for a way to mix my Apple playlists so that when it goes to the next song in a playlist that you don’t hear a pause or break in the music. The biggest problem I’ve experienced with all the apps I’ve tried so far is that they don’t have licensing to all the music I have on my phone. For example, with this app, I wanted to import 171 songs from my playlist to mix and I was only able to import 48 of them due to the limitations of this app. It’s like that on all these apps. Not sure why they can’t get the rights to all the music…. If you don’t have all the music that you love, then what’s the point? I did however give 2 stars because their user interface is pretty basic and easy to navigate and gives a good amount of control over intro / outro mixing.

### 2/5 — STILL no ability to play from external HDD on iPad Pro!

*2020-08-22*

Once it does, Ill buy the pro! But until then, its all but worthless. Not everyone bought the iPad Pro with huge amounts of storage.

Apple has FINALLY made the option available to you it implement this feature. Please use it and let us play our music from external usb-c devices??

### 5/5 — Perfect but

*2026-06-24*

The app is perfect and everything but is missing that that we should import our music file to that app 

U should add that feature

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-01-03, version 15.0.3*

Easy n great playlist maker

### 5/5 — Great replacement for Favorite App that fell by wayside.

*2024-11-28*

One suggestion is to add a cut option at end of songs 1 second to 10 or something to make cross mixing better by removing silent ends that mess with cross mixes. And allow songs to play in full if desired by removing the song max time or at least increasing to 25 minutes.

Other than that, great app with current settings at:

Fade in = off
Song duration = max minutes and seconds
Fade out = 3 seconds
Crossfade = 9 seconds

### 5/5 — Great app - Music DJ

*2021-07-04*

Been using it since a different app stopped working with iOS 10 and wasn't being updated by the maker. Love the cross fade especially! GUI is far from attractive, but it gets the job done and has tons of extra features that make up for it. Five stars!

### 5/5 — Music DJ

*2020-12-28*

The App won’t open up after you close it. It keeps crashing.

### 5/5 — Just What I Was Looking For

*2020-01-08*

The playlist in the iphone has some serious limitations. This app solves them. In particular, I needed a playlist that allows you to pause between songs. This app allows you to do that and much more. Please keep up the excellent work, and continue to enhance this valuable app!

** UPDATE **

I was a little disappointed to find that the iPhone’s Equalizer settings don’t work with the app. This is an issue for me because the PA system that I pair with through Bluetooth has no base/treble adjustment on that channel, and I wanted a way to adjust that, at least through the iPhone. This function would make this app a true all-in-one for me. Other than that, the app appears to perform well with no glitches.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-05-18*

Can you make a version for windows

### 5/5 — Great App !

*2018-12-31, version 8.1.6*

Fun app !

### 5/5 — Game Changer for performers

*2018-12-29*

I perform live with backing tracks and also playing break music. Not only is this one of the first ios apps that allows you to auto- crossfade a playlist, but, the interface is actually designed to be used during a performance. So much much better than anything elso ios out there.

### 5/5 — Music DJ-so easy & no glitches!

*2018-07-18*

Perfect for crossfading...very smooth blending songs. Love it for everyday listening & for instructing my SPIN class! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
