### 1/5 — Totally NOT FUNCTIONAL

*2023-12-19, version 2.0*

BEWARE, THIS APP IS NOT FUNCTIONAL, paid for absolute garbage.  To Developer: fix the app or issue refund.

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2023-11-03, version 2.0*

It doesn't save the listing of music files, even on the paid version and won’t play back.  This app hasn’t been updated for 7 years - it needs to be updated much more often, annually as an absolute minimum.  That may be why this app doesn’t work.  Sort it out, for goodness sake!

### 1/5 — Power amp

*2023-10-20*

Downloaded today app is not working at all on my iPhone 13. Wish they will fix it soon.

### 1/5 — Robbery

*2021-07-27*

I wasted $6 on this app which does absolutely nothing!
There’s no EQ and doesn’t play most songs from Apple Music!
I’m fed up with being ROBBED of my money by these app inventors.
I will be reporting this situation.

### 1/5 — Total waste

*2021-07-24, version 2.0*

The app does nothing! It does exactly what it says, “ it makes your music impossible to play!” Don’t buy this app if you don’t want to be stuck with an app that doesn’t do anything because you can’t get a refund. I actually rate this app ZERO STARS but had to click one just to continue!!!    🤬🤬🤬

### 1/5 — Junk

*2021-07-07*

I purchased this app because it has the name tat matches a great app I used on my Android phone.  No way to play music on my phone and no instructions on how to use it otherwise. Just a search button.

### 1/5 — Android has full app. iOS app is crap.

*2021-05-15*

The iOS app lets you do nothing. Plus it will not read and remember your full library on your phone. 

You must select the songs everytime you restart the app. You cannot even save a playlist.

Crap, just crap.

It should read and remember your entire library listing, letting you jump in and start playing any song with shuffle enabled.

No can do. Crap, just crap!!

### 2/5 — not so great

*2021-01-18*

works but not so great, won’t do landscape so you need to fudge with it if landscape is your thing

will not let you create lists 

very limited but again it does play stuff so ,,,,,, (

### 1/5 — Don’t Buy

*2020-08-23, version 2.0*

Bought this app thinking it would be the same as on an Android but was highly disappointed. You have to pre-select songs to play and there isn’t even an equalizer. Refund please!

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2020-02-11*

I bought this by mistake (on advice of a friend, who mistakenly thought this app had an equalizer). For me, just a waste of money.
