Great audio quality, AWFUL search and playlists
I wanted to like Qobuz but I can’t take it anymore. Search is terrible and the recommended music algorithm is unforgivably awful. Canceled my free trial after a couple weeks. I hate Spotify but wow this is bad.
Love Qobuz
Love the fact that Qobuz actually values artists. I love the high quality sound, recommended artists and now we have lyrics!
Would give 5 stars but the interface needs slightly more work and I wish I could request a couple artists to be added.

Overall High Quality
Qobuz stands out from the other music streaming services because they have stayed true to their mission. While they have developed into a company large and "mainstream" enough to offer a wide selection across genres, they are also successful in maintaining a focus on quality. Unlike the mega-organizations, Qobuz can remain dedicated to a chosen area in art and business - music. A digital store, which makes true, permanent ownership of music files possible ... Availability of numerous audio file formats including lossless ones ... 100M tracks (just as many as any other streaming service) ... Availability of an annual subscription plan ... Qobuz is really the only service I found that offers all of these plus a "clean" and up-to-date app with thoughtful, educational material. Trusting they will continue to offer all these features ... I think I have finally found a good streaming service for the long run.

Left Tidal, I’ve used Soundiiz to transfer my music from Tidal to Qobuz expecting my music to be in the library or in playlist on Qobuz! No chance just download 29 tracks, anyway, I go to listen to all the music that has been transferred across and each song lasts 27 seconds, went on Qobuz chat bot ( what is that all about ? ) after 30 minutes of that, finally chat bot says I’ll get a human to get in touch with you via email ( oh great more writing!! ) WELL that’s well over 24 hours ago and still no human has sent me an email , so when the free trial ends , will I pay nearly £190 for the year for duo membership? Well that now depends on Qobuz customer service
If you want £190 and want a better review improve your customer support and get in touch to help !!

Five-star app after 2026 UI changes
Qobuz has been my choice for Hi-Res music for many years, but I’d been bothered by some bugs and UI decisions in the past. Their recent changes resolved most of these!
The best music streaming service
With Qobuz I feel more like I’m interacting with a music library, as opposed to a database. The new interface is great - very clean and usable. The Mac app is great too - love how easy it is to assign a different audio output to Qobuz than the rest of my Mac sounds. Love the option to purchase music too. There’s a lot to love here.

AI support is terrible
Have been waiting for an account problem to be fixed since April 2026. Took 2 months to get a human involved and while they say it will be fixed its still not fixed. Will be going back to Apple Music once subscription is over with Qobuz
Recent update isn’t great
Since the most recent update the app won’t change songs when selected from another artist than the one currently playing. This happens about 30% of the time. Takes several restarts to fix.
Interface and mechanism should be improved
The sound quality is amazing, however the library is not the biggest, some artists are missing, some album dates are wrong. There is something very annoying that happens in the queue when you play a song from the artist profiles. It adds a list of song from the same artist to the queue, but then if i go to another artist account, the songs that were added to the queue from the previous artist do not disappear. This does not happen with Spotify for example. I really like the Magazine Feature, and the look of the app overall. But i have to end the membership because i find the queue system very unpractical and not all artists i listen to are available.

Awesome music
Love it great audio files
review
has a wide variety of music but the app is very laggy a lot of the time. also, having a sleep timer setting would be great for listening to music at night.
Music service without ego
I had to get away from the power trip tech fascists. There are some things I would improve. Search function is too sensitive. The queue/ play can be fiddly (hard to DJ from it). But it’s got everything the others have without the hype and over zealous music promo.
The best
Excellent library with consistent metadata. I have never had a problem in all the years using Qobuz
My best music streaming!
Thank you!

App barely works
Also, why tf are you asking for my birthday and gender?

Software glitches
I am experiencing glitches where either the music disappears from Qobuz (no music for an artist all of a sudden). Also Qobuz connect with my Naim fails to stream mid song often
This app has less songs than Spotify.
I tried to search for a song I want, but it didn’t find what I was looking for.
Came for the music, stayed for the software
I’m simply amazed there are people who can still write fast, efficient software these days. This app rules, and the music selection and quality is outstanding.
Least User Friendly, Most Unintuitive.
It is insane the way basic features are not added to things like the music history (such as being able to see the track) and that if you have an entire queue set up it will delete the whole thing if you accidentally tap a song that you were trying to long press for unreasonably long. Im serious this app is a pain to use. I would just use spotify, but at least this way the artists get paid a more fair amount. I do not care how good the music sounds if accessing it is this unpleasant. Edit: And OH MY GOD allow me to turn off the auto loop mode for when i get in the car, AND AT LEAST ALLOW ME TO TURN OFF LOOP MODE AT ALL!!
Update: They redid the entire UI and while its somewhat more intuitive it still sucks so much. Queue clears when you accidentally start a new song, playing an album also puts it in the queue (why, theres literally a button to use that functionality) you cant go to a release by clicking the title of something, and there is STILL no way to block an artist or dislike a song. Oh and the search function is one of the worst ive used in an application on any device ever. I mean that. How are you this bad at app design. Do you even test your own app?.

Garbage
I recently tried to re-subscribe to this app because I wanted something that supports artist more. Well I paid my 16.99 and it won't recognize my subscription. No matter what I do it doesn't work just tells me to enjoy full tracks again and then when I check my subscription it tells me to subscribe I click subscibe and it tells me I am subscribed. If they can't handle the sign in process than why bother.
