App interface and music selection.
Tidal has a terrible app interface that is not user friendly.
Also, most of the selected music along a theme is not a good match to my tastes and preference.
Most of the time it is really weird.
Very rarely does it offer an interesting new artist or song.
★★★★ GoodJobSon 6/28/2026 v2.201.0
Don’t waste your time
I tried to give this app a fair chance. I really did. But it’s absolutely unacceptable how frequently songs buffer. Don’t waste your time.
★★★★ mdddddddddddddd8 6/28/2026 v2.201.0
Downloads
Why did you remove the ability to download an individual song? The songs at the top of my tracks aren't even included in my download queue. $13 a month for the most unintuitive bs
★★★★ ShaBoo522 6/28/2026 v2.201.0
Charged
Why was I just charged 6/16 and on 6/28 I was suddenly only able to hear 30 second snippets of songs and told to pick a plan. I’ve been with this company since Jay-Z but Apple Music here I come.

Ratings
Having already left 2 5-star reviews, I am CONSTANTLY prompted for more ratings, every couple of minutes while using the app on my phone. Come on guys! Enough already, seriously considering going back to Spotify if it persists for much longer. I will keep on giving 1-star reviews till it either stops or I leave.

Extremely Annoying Review Prompt
Every single time I open this app they try to coerce me into reviewing it. I’ve reviewed it 3 stars multiple times. So now it’s getting 1 star and a comment. The prices are crazy too especially for a niche service that doesn’t even have a bunch artist catalogs
★★★★ Twebbizzle 6/26/2026 v2.201.0
Horrible
Recommendations stink and it literally won’t stop sending my push notifications to write this review when I open up the app. So here it is, one star
★★★★ JayIsn’tTaken 6/25/2026 v2.201.0
Don’t ask me to review this app ever again
App is fine. It just kept asking me to write a review every time I opened the app. This is your punishment, Tidal.
★★★★ KrVnk 6/25/2026 v2.201.0
Do better
Stop asking me to review over and over again. A third of my favorites randomly doesn’t play. Getting ready to leave this app
★★★★ Lace front wig 6/25/2026 v2.201.0
They asked me to write this 100 times
It’s terrible
★★★★ Real David Cross 6/24/2026 v2.201.0
Stupid popup rating
1 star for constant pop ups for rating the app even if i already did.
★★★★ whocares2004 6/24/2026 v2.201.0
Tidal SUCKS
Music stops for no reason, I can’t play certain songs, I even tried downloading and it still stops for NO REASON.
★★★★ 2026-Vadey 6/24/2026 v2.201.0
Would be higher
But i got tired of tidal prompts for reviews. Hopefully this ends it.

Stop asking
I don’t want to review your site every time I open it up. Please stop
★★★★ Kitty krait 6/24/2026 v2.201.0
Glitchy AF
Every day, I see the spinning wheel of death. It doesn’t matter where I am - in my house, on WiFi, on the go, inevitably it always pauses right in the middle of a song. I got this app because it was the most ethical of the streaming services… but y’all are making me want to rage against the machine. And what’s up with this error code “cannot play this song in your area” ?? Figure it out, Tidal.
★★★★ Insom_87 6/24/2026 v2.201.0
Poor functionality
Can’t link as default music player for google home. -5 stars for continuous review pop ups after I gave it a review

GUI Boo Hoo
Hard navigate. Lost all my work making playlists.

Bad offline functionality
I broke up with Spotify and had a rebound with Tidal. I had high hopes, and have tried to stick with it, but the offline/download functionality just sucks. I have a long commute without cell service and need to reliably download music. Goodbye Tidal

Why is my app always crashing?!
