All it app purchase is gone

I bought lifetime premium at 2024. After some time stopped to use this app. When returned back, all premium options are reset. Restore purchase button does not work. Just spinning “in progress”. I sent the letter to the developer, app support. Provided receipt and screens. Full ignoring.

frustrating - don’t pay for it.

This app is cool when it works. If you want to use the transparent background it will take days to update, tapping on the widget doesn’t actually refresh anything, deleting and re-uploading the widget only seems to make it take longer. wouldn’t recommend paying for it, can’t remember if there’s any free options.

Great but widget doesn’t completely work

Widget seems to only work when Home Screen customization is set to either light or dark for icons and widgets. If you choose to customize and “tint” your home screen to a color of your choice, the widget displays only white boxes and doesn’t work. I could be wrong but a simple solution or fix to the tinting issue for developers can be resolved by a Google search asking why widgets might display white when the Home Screen is tinted. Thank you for your help.

Doesnt work on home screen anymore

I bought the premium as I loved how it looked on my home screen at first.. then it just disappeared and became a grey widget with nothing, Waste of money and disappointed considering it looked really nice at the start

Drains battery significantly in the background

It drained about 20% of my battery in a single day of no use

Won't even connect...

I cannot sign in to Spotify due to an error in Google's "Use secure browsers" policy. (My Spotify account is set up through Google.) This looks cool, I just wish I could even try it.

Spotify support

Overall it’s a nice app and widget, however it’s been over a year and other apps like this already have support for Spotify, being able to sign in as a third party connection to allow it to work. I bought premium wanting both features to work as intended but they aren’t, it’s misleading..

Doesn’t Work

iPhone 15 Pro Max; 18.2.1; everything works until I add the widget. Once the widget is added to my Home Screen, its interface grays out and click on the widget only opens the WidgetBeats app. Worst money I’ve spent in a long time.

I don’t even want to give 1 star.

Just DL it on my new mac and the app lagged totally. Now even trying to restart or shutdown my computer. It won’t let me as the app’s close button grayed out so I can’t close/quit it.

Widget doesn’t work

Don’t waste your money. Widget doesn’t work.

Does not work on Home Screen as advertised

This does not work as a Home Screen widget as it states in the description. App directions and support is not available. Refund needed.

Scammers

Download this and paid £2.99 and never received premium and does not give a refund either absolute scam

Doesn’t work shockingly bad app.

Downloaded paid for the extras and it doesn’t work…

Vinyl Issue

On 17.6.1…vinyl widget works when using Apple Music but not on Spotify. The album art stays frozen on the last track Apple Music was, and never transitions to Spotify. When you open the Widget Beats app it everything works as normal.

Rubbish app!

This is a scam. Doesn't seem to blend at all with the background and funny enough you can't get a refund as well. Do better! This is a scam.

Disaster

It doesn’t change music and stop spinning, I have to manualy come in the app to change

Doesn’t work even on premium

Scam and rubbish! I wish i can get my money back!

Buggy

The widgets often show the wrong song playing. you have to tap play in the widget multiple times before the vinyl animation will start spinning. The artwork doesn’t always spin with the vinyl and looks very broken when this happens.

Estafadores

Son unos ladrones. El app no funciona y jamás puedes restaurar la licencia en caso de cambio de dispositivo y reinstalación. NO INSTALAR ESTAFADORES

Doesn’t work DO NOT BUY!

I wish I could get my money back the app didn’t work I tried updating uninstalling and reinstalling Spotify just in case but nope trash!!
