Love it! ### 1/5 — Difficult to navigate *2023-08-31* Not user friendly, 99p for a song is very steep. If there was a way to make playing songs easier it would be good. ### 5/5 — What they don’t say *2022-10-21* Great app, I use every time I’m out (where possible). I haven’t seen this mentioned on the app details, but you get 3 free songs per day, only after you use up the free credits do you get asked if you want to pay for more songs. I’m surprised how few people know about Secret DJ, get it and introduce your friends to it, you could have all your music choices between you all night. ### 1/5 — Won’t let me put songs on! *2022-09-12* The app doesn’t allow me to access any songs. It just logs in let’s me see my profile and who else logs in to the venue. What is the point of this app if I can’t play any songs? ### 5/5 — Love this app *2022-07-26* This is such a fun app, been using it for years now. I actually chose where to meet people based on this app, so that I can play the music I like. ### 5/5 — ORLETO LOUNGE SECRET DJ *2022-04-01* This is an Amazing app for our company, our staff and customers sure love a good tune on the queue from our picks! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load properly *2022-03-31, version 5.1.1* Great idea and amazing when it works but 8/10 it’s shows me 0 venues around even when I’m stood in the venue :) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-08-10, version 5.0.9* Listed venues don’t have any option to select songs on the app. Total waste of money ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-07-15* My local has this service. Didn’t work last three times I used it. Didn’t play any of the songs I picked in two hours. There was only about ten people in the pub. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2021-06-26* Excellent app and great customer service from support team, Adam was great! ## Frequently asked questions about Secret DJ ### What does Secret DJ do?
