### 1/5 — 闪退，不能下载，不能自动下一首

*2023-07-09*

可以支持你们，但是别欺骗我们的情感呀

### 1/5 — 听不了！

*2017-09-10*

并不能听歌。购买的时候没看清。歌词网上就有了，干嘛还要专门出个app。主要为了教孩子唱歌的。提醒后面要买的人。

### 1/5 — 太不地道了！

*2016-03-23*

虽然本人购买的不是pro，但也是basic版本的，那你可以让我少听点歌曲，就是说歌曲的数量可以减少很多，但是不能让我一首歌都听不完全吧？都是唱一半就没了！作为基督徒的一个赞美诗app，太不地道了！头一次看到这种App，很失望！

### 5/5 — excellent

*2013-08-03*

very excellent apps

### 1/5 — 希望能改进

*2012-12-10*

基本没有用，商店的产品在中国不能购买，资讯少得可怜，当奉献了吧。

### 4/5 — Great app for Chinese ministry

*2012-02-06*

Can I request for the app to be somehow integrated into iTunes so that the lyrics can be viewed in iTunes while the song is playing instead of switchibg between 2 apps? This app will be a 5 star then!

### 5/5 — Worship leading perfect!

*2011-10-02*

Perfect worship leading tool!
It is so convenient to put together a songlist now!
New updates offline is so much faster!!

### 1/5 — Can't open it!!!!

*2011-09-30*

Waste my money... :(

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2011-07-06*

What an awesome app!!! Its very Helpful!

### 4/5 — What happens?

*2011-06-25*

The June 24 update is making the app worst.  First of all, all words changed to English, no more Chinese words.  Second, I can't add any playlist.  Please fix it.
