Somehow works for me

Despite the bad reviews at first, this manages to fulfill my dreams of Apple Music being better than spotify

Crashes on launch

Crashes on launch on my iPhone 13 Pro, fully up to date app and iOS.

I should have read the reviews…

Unfortunately this only works with (downloaded) songs that are in the device’s library. Don’t buy this if you want to use it with Apple Music (streaming).

Wish I could say it worked, but…

…no dice. Installed on both my M1 Mac and iPhone 12 mini, and they’re paired, but…it just doesn’t work. Fails in a few different ways, but I can’t handoff Apple Music between my Mac and iPhone. 😕🤷🏼‍♂️

No longer functional on iOS 15.3/Monterey 12.2

I haven't used PlayOff in a few years but loved how much easier it made it to "handoff" music playing on my iPhone from Apple Music to my Mac since Apple hasn't yet added this functionality to Handoff/Continuity. It looks like the recent Apple Music App overhaul for Monterey 12.2 and/or iOS 15 update broke things sadly. :(
