User reviews

Indispensable

An essential app for collecting URLs for new music releases to listen to. I used to save them to a notes app. This is an order of magnitude better.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your review and for using MusicBox!

Embrace of “AI” is Disappointing

The app was far more interesting a concept before it embraced “AI” powered features. I now question its underlying privacy and security. The developer proudly introducing these features also reveals a complete inability to read the room, and I question their judgement.

Great to organise saved albums

I am using this to organise my classical music collection in Apple Music. AM does not offer clear organisation of saved albums and playlists are a nightmare for classical albums. So using this app to create ‘shelves’ (tags) for genres, conductors, soloists, etc. I don’t have to wade through AM’s endless ‘Bach’s greatest hits’ playlists, or suggested x, but can just see my own saved albums collection and choose from there. Play it or open it in AM. So far I am relieved to find this app!!

Thank you so much for your review! I’m happy to hear you’re enjoying MusicBox.

Great but just broke all my widgets

I love this app but all my (50+) widgets are now broken with the new update. Like that there’s new options. Wish you could have added it without forcing me to recreate all my widgets

Response from developer

Thank you for the review, and I’m sorry about the widgets. The change was necessary to move them forward, but this won’t happen again.

Can’t Access The App

When launching the app I get a window with the release notes asking me to review the app. I cannot clear the window, making the app unusable.

This bug is now fixed in version 1.8.0.
