denon. dj

skipping music on downloaded/offline on last update doesnt work anymore
trash. constantly introducing music I don't listen. repeating the same songs. showing me podcasts when I've never listened to one. YouTube has lost the plot
Chile one
No control button shown on the music button being played meaning you cannot repeat a music. Really frustrating. You are on a run and suddenly music stops. Terrible app for watch.
I feel like every update make it slightly worse
Abysmal app and company... I finally get to listed to music to decompress after a stressful day! Just kidding I now have to listen to two completely unrelated unskippable ads. Yay!!!
When I listen to an autogenerated queue, after some hours of inactivity, the app opens with the queue starting the last played track from that original queue and I cannot get back to the previous songs listened before. This is catastrophic user experience: songs sequence is the foundation of emotional impression which I want to reproduce. Making me go to the app history and manually picking up the songs is a terrible option. I don't get it: what's so hard in the queue persistent implementation?
some technical issues 🙂
ads pop up on youtube now
The latest version removed the search function from the main menu? To search I need to look up an artist or pull up a playlist to use the search function. The explore tab apparently is supposed to have search but it doesn't. How can such a large company make such a half baked product?
This could easily be a 5 star rating, but now the new release section is in a terrible location. Also, I hope someday there is an option to have new releases for a specific genre in one place. For example, I go to genres, select a genre, then I can select a section with nothing but new releases from that genre alone. The new releases section now has everything and sometimes I'm looking for just rock, or just hip hop, or just reggae.
the app is real dumb. I search for an artist and start playing a couple of songs, then it jumps to some completely unrelated stuff... I searched for an artist, guess what I wanted to hear that!! completely dumb!
worst shuffle and recommendations
the worst music app out there, doesn't remember my settings, have to press for shuffle on my Playlists every time, always start with the same song, the random selection is awful, and has the worst quality sound of all. every thing Google tush, goes to pooper.
Nope... I had it on for convince, but then their free trial showed up, activated, and now when I get into my car it blasts some dumb song I didn't select or want to hear... Peace out. Uninstalling.
how do you make a music listening app where the shuffle Playlist button doesn't work? pathetic.
the nokia's mp3 is better than and have more settings than this baddie. Dont have any mono sound setting and more it really dont worth to buy premium anymore im gonna buy apple music its better
NOT PLAYING THROUGH BLUETOOTH ON MY CAR KEEP IGNORING HANDS OFF BLUETOOTH PERIOD PHONE SERVICE NOT WORKING IN CAR. GOOGLE AND UCONNECT BLOCKING BLUETOOTH TO FORCE MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP FEES NO BLUETOOTH I HAD THIS ON BLUETOOTH NOT AUXILIARY CABLE
I never used this app cause it doesn't work on my phone
App was fine before recent update. Used to be able to play a song then from similar tab find most other songs by same artist. Now you can't do that and only shows familiar from the first artist you played, doesn't update after each song played like it used to
don't put on here it's not my page
Lyrics consistently gets stuck on the first song opened in each session. Only closing and reopening the app fixes it.
ads you want my daughter to pay a tone of money so yeh not good
Saving song to playlist scrolling doesn't work. Can't save songs to shared playlist. Can't share liked playlist. It can play music.
No doubt YouTube music has the highest numbers of songs listed when compared to other Music apps, but the songs that are played up next are sponsored music pushed by the platform. On the other music apps when you select arijit Singh songs the next song will be played of Arijit Singh only but here in this app a random song will be pushed irrespective of the genre you selected. It is so frustrating. I want this to be considered.
love it but new update has issues and the lyrica used to work but not so anymore
How are we supposed to report albums that have been categorized incorrectly? An album for an artist with a similar name is showing incorrectly.
was randomly glitchy with it skipping to random songs
Liriknya seringkali ga sama. ga singkron sama lagunya, kenapa bisa gitu? direfrsh juga tetep sama. aneh.
stops workings, always need to reinstall
So glitchy app after any ads sometimes I am very frustrated because of the glich
