### 4/5 — 오류

*2026-08-10*

편리하지만 반복 청취와 로그인 안됨

### 1/5 — Complete and utter trash

*2026-08-02, version 7.9*

Things overlap, PiP does not work half the time. The app gets stuck on a loop, you cant get do anything you have to kill the app and start again and even then, all this pointless added tweaks just makes the app crash. Abosulute and complete utter trash on an app. -1000/10

### 2/5 — Bad for music

*2026-08-01, version 7.9*

The light player does not work with playlists. It changes to a different playlist at the end of each song. The other player stop playing and ask you you if you’re still watching every three songs. There are no options to help with these issues.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-07-22, version 7.9*

This apps are really awesome

### 1/5 — Annoying app

*2026-07-22, version 7.9*

Too many ads pop up every few seconds and sometimes when I turn the camera on and  then off, I have to open the app and play it again. Plus, the sliding thing on the background is super annoying. Moreover, it pauses by itself from time to time or while using certain apps and won't even resume unless I have to go to the app and play it again. I switched to the other app which is way better.

### 5/5 — Excellent pip player with no ads on premium!

*2026-07-16, version 7.9*

Excellent pip player with no ads on premium! Just paid $10 once

### 3/5 — Okok

### 2/5 — kein Support

*2026-06-21*

Gerät wird heiss, teilweise funktioniert einfach nicht, inzwischen kann ich mich gar nicht mehr anmelden, und support schweigt
