Probably apples fault

Works as it should with items in the library, but still doesn't work with new items on radio. Would like to see this fixed in the new version. 5 stars once’s fixed.

Not good

This scrobbles not so good you stream for 7 hours and only 3 has scrobble

终于找到了!

我的需求就是在iOS上也能scrob到last.fm而已,没别的,试了finale也不行,quietscrob也不行,air也不行,就这个可以!感谢!

Its working but…

It works but it doesnt update the “now playing”, and the login page is not inside the last fm site :( so yeah idk how safe it is but thankss

Response from developer

Be sure that the app neither use nor store any personal data. Your last.fm account and credentials are completely safe with Trax.

Solid features, but same limitation as others

This scrobbler basically does what all the others already do : it only records music that has been added to your library. If only it were possible to have a scrobbler that truly captures everything we listen to on Apple Music, not just what’s saved.

On the positive side, the built-in tools to analyze listening activity are quite good and make the app more useful than some alternatives.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We’ve tested the scrobbling functionality and can confirm it is working correctly using Apple Music. Could you please tell us a bit more about when or how the error occurs? If you contact us directly, we’ll be more than happy to help you resolve it.

Not Scrobbling

Kinda regret purchasing this, its not scrobbling my tracks

App takes up 6.5 GIGABYTES

What the heck?! Why does this app use so much storage?

Also the scribble button needs to be tapped multiple times before it actually updates. Gets old having to do this every time.

Ótimo mas ocupa muito espaço

O aplicativo é ótimo, só me incomoda o alto uso de armazenamento do iPhone. Atualmente o app instalado aqui está usando mais de 2GB de dados.

Response from developer

The app saves all your library and images on your device to avoid make unnecessary calls to Last.fm. That’s the reason behind it.

Only 3x3 available

I have other apps that are tracking all my listens and while the app seems to as well, it will not let me go more than 3x3 for albums even though that time period is well over 30. Been that way for 3 weeks. Even tried doing all time and it will only do a 3x3

Response from developer

You need to get the premium version to get more mosaics. The free version only allows 3x3 mosaics.

Waiting for an update.

Doesn’t track accurately. The UI is outdated and cumbersome to navigate. Doesn’t add any value to my listening experience, post or pre. And I’m using the paid version. Update: Still void of any meaningful change. Scrobbling isn’t live, consistent or accurate; often 24 hours behind, if you’re lucky. Same tired UI. I have to use this and Bijou.fm in orchestra to really justify interfacing with the app. I hope this feedback inspires action rather than clap-back.

pretty much useless and waste of money.

It scrobbles completely on its own terms and so seldom I might as well manually enter the name and artist every single time i listen to a song. I’ll have it open and running and connected to wifi or data and it will scrobble a song or two and then if i either exit the app (keeping it open in the background! not swiping out and completely ceasing background activity), or simply switch to data or wifi, not only does it not scrobble any subsequent tracks after the switch (even if there is still internet access) it also deletes all the preceding scrobbles from that day, effectively erasing the (non desktop) history. And if it isn’t doing that then I can be actively listening to music using wifi and have trax scrobbler open and active and it literally just does not scrobble and tells me im not listening to anything and as far as i can tell theres no way to refresh because swiping out and reopening the app doesnt work. Every so often i’ll open it and it will show me one song that i tried to scrobble several days previously and not any of the 50+ other songs i listened to with the app running that day. The one thing it does show is whatever is already logged by last.fm desktop or desktop browser scrobbling. But there is actually an app from the developer for mobile that shows you that stuff and its not the purpose of this app.

Doesn’t work

App doesn’t scrobble tracks even with the premium version, a scam

Useless

Doesn’t track accurately. The UI is outdated and cumbersome to navigate. Doesn’t add any value to my listening experience, post or pre. And I’m using the paid version.

No warning option for when scrobbles are submitted

I was trying out various apps that might replace the Last.fm app for me to get more accurate scrobbles (something that would fill in the album artist correctly and not as just the track artists). But I’ve been using that app fine to submit scrobbles up to the present time. Now, what I didn’t expect was for this app to automatically submit scrobbles from my library to Last.fm for the past two weeks without asking me. I’ve already submitted them with the other app, so there’s quite a bit of double scrobbles I have to delete now… and these Trax scrobbles still incorrectly use the track artist as the album artist. Maybe this is just an inherent limitation of what info the apps can get from Apple Music library plays, but still it is annoying not having an option available if you want to verify the scrobbles that will be sent (at the very least, for the first time the app is initialized).

❌❌❌

скробблинг треков не работает, даже если скробблить только то, что добавлено в медиатеку (покупка премиума в приложении не помогла в улучшении работоспособности), установлена iOS 17.6.1

how do i bulk delete?

i don’t know how to do it please help

Disappointing

Scrobbling is very slow and sometimes doesnt even scrobble at all

Por que?

Porque sempre que escuto versões deluxes de álbuns o scrobble é contado para o álbum normal? Por exemplo, eu escuto o “Cry Baby (Deluxe)” e a tag vai para “Cry Baby”, sendo que eu escuto a versão deluxe??? Se os desenvolvedores pudessem arrumar isso seria perfeito! Pois o app é bom

Response from developer

O Trax mescla as versões deluxe com o álbum normal por padrão, mas você pode desativar esse recurso em Settings -> Automatic merging.

Ridiculous

I personally don’t think I will ever give higher than one star to an app that makes you buy into their service just to be able to email customer support.. never in my life have I seen an application do that and I hope I never do again.

Can't scrobble in the background

Unfortunately I paid for the Premium version of this app on the expectation that it could upload while the iPhone's screen is dark but I am forced to wake up the phone and bring the app to the front. Not even when "Background App Refresh" is enabled.
