User reviews

I can’t put my music

Please could you put YouTube musique to the app we can Connect it to

Brought a smile to my face

This does a good job of mimicking the experience of using a first-generation iPod. It’s totally functional as well since it links to your Apple Music library. The way song titles and artists names are presented on the monochrome backlit screen brought a smile to my face.

Minor complaints
1 - behaviour when scrolling up doesn’t exactly match the original up. The bar should scroll to the top of screen before the content scrolls.

2 - Unfortunately no games.

Overall a fun experience and worth the free download.
