Love it

Ever since Seedio was shelved years ago I’ve been hoping for a replacement and this app doesn’t disappoint. One thing though, the synchronicity feature needs to be able to negative for me to use it to it’s best. Other than that and some minor teething troubles it’s golden.

Epic failure

Does not pickup ANY of my Playlists, so no broadcast from me. It did find all the downloaded songs on my wife’s iPhone. She could broadcast and I could listen BUT her play button was grayed out. Tried for 30 minutes, watched the demo with zero success. We deleted the app and will ask Santa this year for something that works out of the box.

Love it!

I love this app! It’s great for when you wanna stream your content anywhere. I wish you could add the ability to import files from other apps or iCloud Files app.

Neat idea but flawed

Not iPad-native (but does run).

Sync is off, although close-ish. OK for having music in separate rooms, where you can't really hear multiple devices well at once. (Maybe mic could be used to correct?)

Only plays local downloads, yet shows your whole cloud library that can't be played--you have to sift through masses of songs that don't work to find the local ones that do. They shouldn't be shown.

Makes you turn off Bluetooth instead of simply not using it. Big problem for users of Apple Watch, Bluetooth keyboards, etc.

On the bright side, it's a neat idea and very easy to use. Looking forward to any future developments, although it has been a few years.

Great, just needs more features

This is a great app that works better than many of its competitors. But you should be able to play Apple Music songs through it and also should be able to play through a Bluetooth speaker. Just some thoughts.
