Immediately asked me for a review straight after opening the app for the first time, I did the tutorial and then got spammed me with its subscription bs. well guess what? I haven't even had a chance to use it so its 1 star so far, nice work devs. 👏👏
I don't use the phone of version of rekordbox any more only used it when I had pioneer ddj 200 then ddj 400 controllers which can be used with phone, I use rekordbox on laptop now, I updated it today, lost all my hot cues for every track so gotta try and do the lot again thanks pioneer for nothing
there's a cracking sound and a little bit adelay when load song to deck, for subscription for a year benefit is not really good. no extra sound effect for fx. and can't remap key
it constantly keeps on cutting music when playing like a radio with no frequency.
high lag problm no mix song 👎👎👎
Crashes after going to settings.
very worst
ok, I got it to work, I played with it for some time (with the registered version, paid via Google Play) but after a while I decided to stop my subscription. Even if I cancelled it on Google Play you repeatedly tried to change me anyway. Good thing I had the idea to block you at my bank....
Unfortunately, this app does not work properly on the Redmi Note 14 Pro. The app launches, but audio playback stutters badly, and strangely, the phone starts vibrating whenever the crossfader is used.
frustrating would be an understatement
basically business wants to tell you that you have to subscribe to use your own hardware, on software that has existed for quite some time. #vinylrevival #beyourownscribe
using ddr flex 4 pioneer and could not get bpm to match hitting key but can use slider for bpm match. also reading songs wrong bpm that have been verified. terrible app glad it was free just looking for something on the go
DJ fadhili
mere phone me kyu nhi chal raha hai ye app aawaj hi nhi aata atak atak ke aata hai pura please support my phone realme narzo n 65 5g
the Spotify service just doesn't work
ssays free not free
very complicated they have a lot of hidden things to hold you back from just getting in and playing
it usually cracks
this app is so good, but one problem especially for Androids: optimisation. I got my hands on a ddj flx4 and when I connected it, my phone almost died and I had to force restart it. it was spilling out errors, system app crashes, screen bugging out, etc. I cant play like that. and the worst problem: I can't get a laptop.
Rotating my phone from portrait to landscape or vice versa is a paid feature... Seriously? Are you guys trying to look like greedy clowns because this is how you accomplish that. I used to love this app. I'll be moving to another one because pioneer is more and more becoming the disappointment of the DJ world, not the gold standard. Do better and stop being so disgustingly greedy...
app keeps crashing
not working
format cannot be displayed cuz, fix that for wav formats of any beatrate sample rate, salles gon be bomin fr fr
Another update, yet more things are broken again. This time the 2nd player doesn't work (it "plays" but no audio output). I honestly don't remember the last time there wasn't something major broken with this app, and I've used it for years.
I'm using the app with a Flx4 controller. The app was absolute brilliant when I started using it but since the last update it no longer works. I've reinstalled multiple times and tried with and without my controller but it keeps crashing. I'm going to have to pay for one of the alternative apps if I want to use my controller with my tab. Not cool..
Too much glitches and very laggy.... Great potential though
Good but some ghostly lag on the waveform even on a high end device.
cracking audio
doesnt allow me to play the cue audio only through my headphones, what a joke ive tried all sorts to fix it this has been an ongoing issue for years, right pain its ok otherwise sometimes a bit laggy
Everything was great until today. Spotify will no longer import tracks. I have restarted my phone, uninstalled/reinstalled the app (twice), logged in/out of spotify, disconnected/reconnected to Rekordbox and tried again. It will show all my playlists on Spotify but no tracks are imported. Please fix ASAP or it will remain 2 stars (I gave a bonus star because the app worked fine before)
