### 5/5 — Beautiful and simple!

*2020-07-29*

I absolutely love it. It’s very true to its name.

### 1/5 — APP IS BROKEN

*2020-07-15*

This doesn’t work at all on current iOS. Shame it looks super cool.

### 4/5 — Won’t work (please update)

*2019-07-22*

The visualizer doesn’t appear.

### 4/5 — It’s not working :/

*2019-06-22*

When I opened the app my music started to play and my screen said “swipe down to see music” but when I did and pressed “all songs” it just changed songs, all I see is a blank screen.

### 4/5 — Quite neat!

*2017-08-10*

Pretty simplistic, but still a really cool app! Fun to put on at a party or a friends house in the background :)

### 5/5 — Really, really cool

*2017-01-22*

Love it. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Cody Pilling was here first.

*2015-01-13*

It's not too bad really, the quality of the sound was better than anticipated, let's give the developers credit for that. Secondly, the visuals are simply stunning. Although they should implement a few more features, but overall this is a well thought out idea, and the team executed well. Great job guys, keep it up. Just remember who got here first. The menus are also fantastic are seamless, and minimal which I tend to prefer. Perhaps a ten, maybe twenty band equalizer would be perfect sidekick for this player/visualizer. This app speaks for itself, it's an unknown pleasure.

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2014-05-27*

I have finally found a graphic EQ like this. The visuals are great and the music plays in the background. I love it and will keep it installed. The only downside I find is that you cannot choose music within albums. But other than that this app is amazing. Two thumbs up!
