It’s like nobody maintains it no more. The app freezes all the time. You have to turn your phone completely off to identify a song. By that time the song is over. Now the last few times that does not even work. Don’t waste your time money or effort. I have reached out several times to help them because they used to be good. Now you get no response and nothing gets done. ### 1/5 — Zero stars *2021-07-27* You killed a great app and I lost hundreds of songs! I have to completely close out the app between every song and it still only works 2-3 times out of 10. After all the grief this app has caused I wouldn’t use it now or in the future even if they make it perfect. Such a waste! ### 1/5 — Metal *2021-07-22, version 3.0.3* Does NOT recognize metal 😤 ### 2/5 — Lost all my songs! *2021-06-05* Thanks a lot Musicid. Now that I had to download this version I have lost all my saved songs for the previous version. There isn't anywhere to log in to maybe find them. Now I have to start over and can't remember what I had saved on the other version. Thanks allot to Apple also. ### 1/5 — Lock up *2021-06-04, version 3.0.3* Have iPhone 12pro max . Keeps locking up . Have to uninstall and install . Will work about 3 songs . This worked great on my old iPhone . Help. ### 1/5 — Update *2021-05-28* I had the previous version and after updating to the new iOS the app wouldn’t open. Said developer needed to update. Disappointed that I can’t open it to get to my list of songs. Was made to download a new app and don’t have access to the songs on my list. Too bad they don’t transfer over. Please update the old app so I can at least have time to get my list of songs. ### 1/5 — Was good at one time. *2021-04-17* Lately it don’t ID almost anything. It’s either 1 star or 5. No in between. It works or it don’t work. Well it’s not working quite so well this past year. Every time ya update it, it just gets worse. I don’t give a hollaring hoot about what show it was in or more info about the artist, I just want it to identify a song like it was meant to do. This is the reason I stopped using sound hound. They couldn’t get a song name and then had the balls to charge after 5 free id’s. I’d never pay for this app if ya tried to charge for it. It don’t even work right for free like it use to. Probably gonna delete this one too. Once an app goes bad, they never fix without asking for money. So it looks like the good years with this app is about done. Like the old saying goes “if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it” ### 1/5 — Music ID *2021-02-07, version 3.0.3* Do app stopped working so I’ll give it one star. ### 4/5 — This app better than Shazam *2021-01-26, version 3.0.3* I tried this app on the first try and it searched the song for me right away. The only thing is it won’t let me copy the title name ### 2/5 — Not working *2020-12-13, version 3.0.3* It gave me the Id of a song and now it won’t work. Just keeps saying try again. Speaker is right against the music. Not happy now ### 3/5 — Not working now *2020-12-12, version 3.0.3* I have this app on my iPhone now it is not working it all. So fixed the app ASAP pls ### 1/5 — Broken? *2020-11-28, version 3.0.3* App stopped working after the latest IOS update. Love the app but not atm ### 1/5 — Gone downhill *2020-11-24, version 3.0.3* normally music ID is great but it is not compatible with iOS 14.2 I try to open it and it just crashes ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2020-10-14, version 3.0.3* Doesn’t work to identify the tracks playing on the iPhone you’re listening from ### 3/5 — Rating *2020-09-02, version 3.0.3* Tbh with yall it didnt really find my beat but it found many other songs. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Poor at Identifying most Music *2025-08-26, version 3.0.3* This app use to be really good but now it just fails to identify even very popular music from some of the top artists. When this app fails to identify a song i then try Shazam and its identified in a couple of seconds. May. As well delete it and just use Shazam. ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-07-17, version 3.0.3* Somehow misidentified “Living on a Prayer” as a bunch of random Japanese songs. Literally how? ### 1/5 — Cancellation help *2023-08-01, version 3.0.3* I have tried to cancel this before my auto renewal date and none of the links or email addresses provided work. I DO NO WANT to be charged for monthly subscription because I COULD NOT cancel before deadline. HELP!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-07-06, version 3.0.3* What a pointless app can’t identify 1 song waste of time & memory DELETE ### 1/5 — Poor capacity *2023-01-29, version 3.0.3* Since few years, i have very poor results, even no result. Deezer doing the job, so i remove the app. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-10-20, version 3.0.3* Rubbish, take forever to identify a song even then it couldn’t recognise the music....... i tried it multiple times but it can’t ### 1/5 — Don’t pay for this app. *2022-02-25, version 3.0.3* If you can’t identify Mr. Crowley what good are you? No good is the answer. ### 1/5 — Found only wrong matches for all the songs I tried. *2021-09-06* What more is there to say? I tried several different songs. I tried singing, playing them from a recording, humming (and I CAN carry a tune). I tried older and more recent stuff. Nothing match correctly. I tried the same song 5 or 6 times and it gave me a different match every time (though to be fair, maybe that's how is supposed to work if you play the same song again -- maybe it's supposed to realize that you're trying again because it wasn't a match...) Anyway, just didn't work for me at all. ### 1/5 — No longer a good app *2021-08-27* I’ve had this app for 6+ years and it worked really well. Then last year the original app no longer worked so I paid for/down loaded the new version. It’s really bad, not only does it not recognize music in the US music domain, it locks up. I have to close the app and reopen, which it works for one song then the alga rhythm gets locked and doesn’t recognize new songs. So disappointing, do not download this and look for other options. ### 1/5 — Very sad app *2021-08-22, version 3.0.3* Can’t even id Pink Floyd like really? Was good a year ago now rarely matches ANY song ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Yemen *2023-07-24* I have had many apps like this and this one is my favourite!! Quick and easy to use :) I use this to find the films soundtracks احب التطبيق هذا استخدامه سهل ويعطيك الاغنيه في ثواني بس ### 5/5 — ❤️❤️❤️ *2021-03-24, version 3.0.3* Very very very good❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — So far excellent *2020-12-20, version 3.0.3* Mainly use on dance tracks with 100% hit rate so far. Happy ### 5/5 — I LOVE YOUUUUU! *2020-09-01* So basically I was watching jinn on Netflix and there was this one song Mira was listening to. The song was only about 4 seconds long so I was skeptical that this would work since I already tried this with other music websites/apps and got to results. In 2 SECONDS it identified the song and it was right! I didn’t even think it would work since the song was in Arabic but I’m really grateful you made this. I definitely recommend this for anybody because I spent so long trying to find this awesome song. Also it gave me a whole bunch of information about the song and it was easy to use. All I had to do was press the button and it did the rest for me. It gave me the artist, year, where to find the song, the album, and fun facts about the song. I hope this app becomes really popular and if you see this, thank you for your hard work 😄😄😄❣️ ### 5/5 — Works well *2019-07-22, version 3.0.3* So far works 100% I needed this app and now I have it. You need a separate app if you have a time stuck in your end and want to search that way but based on radio songs it nails it. Will be using this app A LOT! ### 5/5 — BETTER THAN OTHERS *2019-07-17, version 3.0.3* Yo i used so many others before this app and could not find the song i was looking for. But then i found this app and it found my song right away!!! THANK YOU SOO MUCH!!!🤩 ### 5/5 — Finally found my song! *2019-05-09* I’ve tried so many different music identifying apps and none of them could identify my song. Finally I found Music ID and it got it the first time! Thank you so much!!!!! ### 5/5 — 100% always right *2019-03-08, version 3.0.3* Love it! Play ANY song and it will identify it ### 5/5 — Old version does not work *2018-12-24* I had not used this app in a while and when I needed to use it I found it did not work. I searched for an app to replace it and found a newer version of the same app. I don’t know why it just didn’t update the old one but the new version works very well just like the old one did although a little different but I don’t mind. It’s still simple for me and does everything I need it to do. I’m using the iPhone XR if that makes a difference. ### 5/5 — Nice *2018-08-19, version 3.0.3* Yes! Love this app! 👌👌👌 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
