Need an update! ### 3/5 — Recently crush and can’t load, any chance of fix? *2024-05-23, version 2.8* Using iphone15 pro plus ### 3/5 — Need improvement *2021-12-18, version 2.6* 1) We need option to play in background. 2) video need to in horizontal not vertical. 3) remove soft touch option in player. ### 3/5 — Please add Picture-in-Picture support *2021-05-14, version 2.2* The built-in video player cannot go fullscreen, so the system PiP button cannot be accessed. Both fullscreen and picture-in-picture are essential for watching video in main and multitasking scenarios. Please consider adding these in the next update. ### 3/5 — China Pirrone *2021-02-16, version 2.1* Great app so far ### 3/5 — Need Horizontal Viewing *2021-02-11, version 2.1* App would be much better if it could be viewed horizontally, not just vertically. I rarely use my iPad in vertical orientation. ### 4/5 — Review *2021-01-11, version 2.1* Great app lets you have a playlist but not sure if you can download offline the songs, but a great variety of music👍 ### 2/5 — Used to be good *2020-09-06, version 2.0* I really liked this app as I could find music videos that were in YouTube and I could play them in the background even if I left the app or my phone was off. But now it doesn’t play if I leave, I have to be in the app and my phone has to be on in order to listen to the music. It’s just another YouTube app with a lot more ads now... ### 3/5 — Nc *2020-07-28, version 2.0* Please make this app so I can look on my phone while the music plays I am gutted every time I have to use my phone it cuts off ### 2/5 — Play in the background *2020-05-14, version 2.0* Can you reset the app to play the songs in the background or when screen is locked???? It used to be like that and then it has changed........ ### 2/5 — Hi There *2020-03-21, version 1.8* This app is amazing, you can listen to any music you want for FREE but their are some downsides such as when you leave the app you have to slide up and continue pressing play until the song actually plays and every once in awhile(like right now)the app will stop working out of no where. I’m trying to search a song to listen to and it just keeps going back to the search bar.? Can you please fix that minor issue?? ### 1/5 — Please fix *2020-03-08, version 1.8* Best app for music, but now all of a sudden can’t search songs what’s so ever ? Really annoying please fix issue ### 1/5 — Crap *2020-03-08, version 1.8* Not working!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Annoyed *2025-06-02, version 2.8* Highly disappointed you spend all that time making different playlist just for the app to stop opening and you to redownload and start over. This is the second time it has done it to me I will not be doing it again. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-04-23, version 2.1* It’s stopped working again, great when it works. Developers sort this out please.... ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2021-04-02, version 2.1* Can’t search for songs now what’s going on is this going to be fixed or do I have to find something else 😡 ### 1/5 — FIX THE APP SO I CAN ACCESS MY SONGS *2021-02-11, version 2.1* Needs update, no longer supports background play. ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-01-29, version 2.1* It used to work so fine but after new update it won’t respond back anymore ### 1/5 — Nothing pops out when i search! Fix it please! *2020-12-03, version 2.0* Nothing pops out when i search! Fix it please! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-11-09, version 2.0* I can’t play music or search I can’t really do anything overall I don’t like it ### 1/5 — Background play *2020-05-11, version 2.0* Still does not play in the background. Whatever. Why was it changed? I can’t leave my phone on, it runs the battery down. But don’t worry about it you won’t post this anyway or fix the problem. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t search anymore *2020-03-28, version 1.8* Loved this app but then it lost the search feature so I can’t add any more songs to my play lists, pity as it was a great app but it doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Blank screen and nothing loads *2020-03-20, version 1.8* This app was working perfectly for me until the recent update. Now, it asks me to sign in every time i open the app and when I search, nothing shows up! Even the home has no suggestion. Its completely blank.. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice app *2020-11-14, version 2.0* Thank you ### 5/5 — Goodyyyy *2020-11-05, version 2.0* Software ### 5/5 — Really good *2020-09-30, version 2.0* Cant get used to any other app! ### 5/5 — Deleted *2020-03-21, version 1.8* I deleted my all my watch list and all my playlists disappeared had loads of tunes on it gutted emailed them to get all my play list back but no response ### 5/5 — Great bug fixed *2020-02-23, version 1.8* Fixed the bug that the music can still be played after screen locked. ### 5/5 — Great app👍 *2019-09-25, version 1.8* Wil be here for long. Thanks !!! ### 5/5 — Good app *2018-10-13, version 1.6* This is exactly the app I’ve been looking for, the one that allows me to play the video & music when not in the app. ### 5/5 — Good for background play *2018-06-20, version 1.5.1* I’m cheap and won’t buy YouTube red, so this is great when I want to listen to music on youtube without staying in the app ### 5/5 — Perfect *2018-01-22, version 1.4* I’ve been searching for such app for a long time.. haven’t done any review for awhile but this one deserves it, love it, thanks to the developers :) ### 5/5 — Flawless *2017-07-22, version 1.3.1* Flawless --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
