Fantastic app with wonderful quality
The latest update for mid July 2026 gave all the app UI tweaks that were missing. As a developer I love how the app is navigated. Much better than Nugs. Good job!

This is the best thing since sliced bread
Kudos as it picked up my complex password from Password / iCloud right away. So now I can run PlayDead and Nugs from one account on AppleTV, iPhone, iPad, MacBook whatever, they got it all to work in the garden the way it should!
FINALLY
I’ve been waiting 16 years for this since I first got on the bus after seeing Furthur at All Good 2010. My only complaint is that the chromecast option is hit or miss, 9/10 miss.
I want to love this app
The Grateful Dead have been arguably the biggest influence in my life. I saw Jerry play 290 times between GD & JGB. I’ve actually fought p people for talking smack about the band. I was really excited to hear about this app coming out. I was a little reluctant to get it just because I’ve had Apple Music for a long time and really don’t need anything else. I could get any GD release there and for any bootlegs go to archive.org. I got it anyway just because it’s an official GD release and I always want to support GD.
So, I open the app and see that I can search by year and download everything. I’m immediately disappointed to find some years are nowhere near complete. For instance ‘94 only has 9 shows. Also some shows are incomplete. The final show 7-9-85 only has Standing On The Moon. Very disappointing. Then a really big disappointment was that they don’t include the lyrics with any song. Apple Music gives the option of scrolling lyricswith every song so it can’t be that hard, especially when they’re your songs and lyrics. I’m gonna keep it for a few months and I’ll update my review monthly. Hopefully it’ll get better.
