So much amazing music *2025-07-25* An app I always wanted and now it’s here. And it’s everything I wanted it to be. 10/10 recommend! ### 5/5 — Exactly what it says on the tin *2025-07-12* How did this app not exist sooner? ### 5/5 — Better than an algorithm. *2025-05-15* Without this app, I never would have heard “How Do You Feel” by Sara Shansky and the Titanic Dance Band, an instant classic that will be in my library forever. You probably wont hear it. You’ll hear something else that you never would have heard otherwise, that I’ll never hear. Some band with no online presence that’s perfect for you. ### 5/5 — Better than an algorithm. *2025-05-12* Without this app, I never would have heard “How Do You Feel” by Sarah Shansky and the Titanic Dance Band, an instant classic that will be in my library forever. You probably wont hear it. You’ll hear something else that you never would have heard otherwise, that I’ll never hear. Some band with no online presence that’s perfect for you. ### 5/5 — Like it says on the tin *2025-05-09* Does what it says and does it well. Already discovered a few songs within a day of use ### 5/5 — Die App ist einfach cool. *2025-05-08* Wenn man nicht zu viele Filter setzt, prima - und genau das, was ich gesucht hatte. ### 2/5 — Still Needs Work *2025-05-07* The filters list in settings isn’t complete and doesn’t work or populate until you first listen to a song. However, filtering does seem to work when applied from the Now Playing menu. When I whipped through several songs to continue to filter countries and genres I noticed A LOT of repeats. Lastly, after I was mostly done filtering, I started receiving a “Failed to Find Songs” error. This app has potential. But it needs more work to get there. **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for reporting these issues. I’ve just released version 1.1.1, which tweaks how/when the failed to find songs error appears. I’d be grateful if you could send me a set of logs from the settings screen -> Email the Developer -> Report an Issue so I can look into the repeating songs issue. As for filtering, that is intended behavior that the filter screen populates with options as you discover songs. ### 5/5 — My new favorite listening mode *2025-03-07* This app is so much fun! It’s a great tour around all the different music being created in the world. It’s so much fun realizing how production values are so important, how very few people get the vocal mixes right, how boring and generic most music is. But when the good songs come – and they come! – it’s a revelation. **Developer response:** Yeah! Glad you’re enjoying the app. Thanks for the review. ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2025-02-22, version 1.0.6* Esse app é tão legal… não imaginei que poderia descobrir tanta coisa boa de uma forma aleatória. 👏 Além de excluir, eu queria poder procurar por apenas um gênero. E uma versão de CarPlay seria bem legal também. Mas de qualquer jeito, eu diria pra testar porque mudou bastante minha forma de encontrar músicas novas. 👍 ## Frequently asked questions about Univershuffle ### What does Univershuffle do?
