### 3/5 — Meh?

*2024-01-05, version 2.6.1*

I’m trying to love this cos it’s great, but if I swipe left on someone, don’t put them back in the pool. I just continually swipe on the same people each time I log in. It’s not that fun.

### 2/5 — The app works okay but..

*2023-11-08, version 2.6.1*

It cycles through the same 5 people for some reason and it’s not like I live in the middle of nowhere I’m in LA. And those 5 people don’t share any of the same artists. So make it so that you get new people or filter out the people that don’t share at least one of the same artists.

### 3/5 — Update

*2023-10-03, version 2.6.1*

It’s a great idea , the site was going to close and then they changed there mind  , so it’s a bit unloved as we wait for updates for the new look app and website .

### 3/5 — Great idea

*2023-07-25, version 2.6.1*

Great idea. But I’m pretty sure they are just fake accounts. No one seems to reply back on this app.

### 2/5 — So…it’s a dating app, right?

*2023-06-23, version 2.6.1*

I’m a bisexual guy, but all the guys showing up in my feed are straight. I don’t really see the point of using this as a dating app when the people I’m being shown don’t have compatible orientations to myself. 
Cool idea, but seemingly not very useful to non-straight folks haha.

### 4/5 — Really great concept

*2023-03-23, version 2.6.1*

Really great concept. Only hindered by the fact that it hasn’t been updated in a very long time. Y’all need to remove the dead profiles

### 4/5 — Great idea!

*2023-01-19, version 2.6.1*

This is a great way to meet people and learn about and share music with like minded people.

### 4/5 — A decent app!

*2022-11-11, version 2.6.1*

I like the concept and a really good way of discovering new types of music and connecting with like-minded people.

### 3/5 — Great concept BUT some inactive profiles

*2022-10-02, version 2.6.1*

This app is a good for meeting people with similar music interests HOWEVER

there are a lot of profiles that havent been active for years or months. This app needs more advertising and better management to make sure active profiles are being shown first.

### 4/5 — One issue

*2022-09-23, version 2.6.1*

Excited to try the app but one small issue right away: when creating an account and choosing sexuality, straight is selected by default. Can you please get rid of that? Will update review once I’ve had more time with it.

### 4/5 — Love the app - Need more Users

*2022-09-15, version 2.6.1*

I love this app. It connects people who share the same music tastes. The only thing that would make it better is for more people to join it. I receive a lot of messages but most are from people in another country or state. I think this app needs more advertising.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not gay friendly

*2024-10-18, version 2.6.1*

Shows me straight woman even though I’m a girl

### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-07-03, version 2.6.1*

Shoes like the same 20 people over and over again whether you like or skip them. Useless

### 1/5 — Interface is virtually unusable

*2024-06-11, version 2.6.1*

The sheer lack of actual features on both the app and the website boggles my mind.  You can’t change your profile picture if you’re not satisfied with it the first time around, and that’s not even getting into how the app requires you to have an account on Spotify (which I do not use) to find a wider variety of songs for your profile even though it says it’s able to scan your Apple Music/iTunes library.  I would even go so far as to say that the claim that it can do the latter seems like false advertising as I did not see an option for that anywhere. Furthermore, every single match I was given on the app was for someone from my geographical area whose music tastes couldn’t be more different than mine.  This whole deal seems pointless and I have no idea how anyone out there could recommend it or give it an even halfway decent rating unless they were just really lucky on the website version.

### 1/5 — Not real profiles

*2023-12-19, version 2.6.1*

These are just bots with outdated pics that will ask you to join a Google Hangout link. Don't waste your time setting this up. I’m in a major city and it has about 12 total women ranging from 19-45. Pointless app

### 1/5 — Mr Lovingheart

*2023-04-13, version 2.6.1*

It’s been over how many years now yet you guys can’t update this app. This is completely ridiculous

### 1/5 — Uses location even when I deleted my account.

*2023-02-03, version 2.6.1*

Kind of a sketchy to just continue using a user’s location when they delete their account and the app. 

What gives?

### 1/5 — Eh great concept but where’s the matching?

*2023-01-24, version 2.6.1*

Not user friendly when it comes to matching! i click like but apparently you can message and send songs? and then what? i’ve gotten no matches (which is unusual for a dating app) and i can’t even tell if any of these guys are checking their messages 🤷🏻‍♀️ 
I’ve sent messages and songs and no response. i’m basically just swiping profiles at this point for not reason. i’ll give it another try and then delete it.

### 1/5 — No option for non-binary?

*2023-01-22, version 2.6.1*

Huge bummer :(

### 1/5 — Not great

*2022-11-11, version 2.6.1*

Features don’t work, can’t send songs. Struggling to find basic functions. Gave it a month but not for Australian users.

### 1/5 — Unsafe app

*2022-07-15, version 2.6.1*

I created an account using the app and they’ve showed the email address on my profile as my full name. Luckily someone told me about it and managed to change it, but only to find out the app isn’t fully connected to the website. It did change locally in the app but on the website my email address was still showing as my name. How is it possible in 2022 to create such an unsafe environment that ignored any privacy recommendations?

*2023-02-08, version 2.6.1*

I like that the people are like minded in the music aspect. So far I’m having a decent experience with the app.

### 5/5 — Thumbs up

*2023-02-05, version 2.6.1*

Very good app

### 5/5 — Connect

*2023-01-26, version 2.6.1*

This app brings a lot of things together that others do not.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2022-12-07, version 2.6.1*

Fantastic App.

### 5/5 — Serenade to Music and People

*2022-12-07, version 2.6.1*

Outstanding app for music lovers. So nice to plug in music and have the ability to define our musical tastes and preferences. Great for picky music lovers and pop music lovers as well.

### 5/5 — Loving it!

*2022-11-28, version 2.6.1*

Just gotta fix the bugs that keep it crashing, that’s all lol

### 5/5 — Great way to meet

*2022-11-28, version 2.6.1*

Love that it reads what bands you like and matches you with people with same taste great idea that you can use it to find gig / festival buddies as well as a dating app
I have at least once accidentally swiped left on a potential match while browsing their bands could do with that bug being fixed but other than that really enjoying using the app and even if I do end up matched will continue to use it to find gig buddies

### 5/5 — Perfect for music-minded folk!

*2022-11-11, version 2.6.1*

Joined a few days ago and I have enjoyed chatting all things music and creativity with some cool peeps! The UI is smooth and easy to grasp. A great platform to connect and converse ☺️

### 5/5 — Good

*2022-09-20, version 2.6.1*

I love you the app seriously

### 5/5 — Marr

*2022-08-21, version 2.6.1*
