★★★★ The heavy 101 6/9/2026 v2.5.2
Too many ads
App has too many ads to where is makes it a problem, and the ads are too long to even sit through, don’t like it because of the ads
★★★★ Kaumil b 6/7/2026 v2.5.2
Not stable app
Need to improve stability many times apps freezes and not consistent performance despite of updates, also carplay not working properly. Need update.

I regret paying for this
Love the one price subscription but I wish I could use the app! It’s so laggy.
★★★★ Ilovesleeping67 6/5/2026 v2.5.2

Está más o menos
Pues no es al 100 la mejor app pero pues ayuda a no andar aburrido , sería bueno que la Isi eran más velos porque es muy lenta
★★★★ jax_tha_go_to 5/21/2026 v2.5.2
Absolutely terrible.
Too many bugs, always glitches and never connects even when I have perfect service.
★★★★ Ashr999 5/20/2026 v2.5.1
Far from perfect
Pros: Ads are less obnoxious compared to others if you have the free version.
Cons: - Limited music selection
- Only Censored songs for certain artists
- Randomizer is terrible; Would randomly find a song from another country with no relation to the last song or artist.
- App has some limitations performance-wise. (e.g. glitches, songs would not play, loading times when choosing songs regardless of connection)
★★★★ kate_173 5/18/2026 v2.5.1
Very disappointed
I’ve owned this app for a long time now, it was amazing months ago. But recently, I tried to add new videos to my playlist, I mainly use this app for ASMR so I can sleep, but there’s no videos showing up. It used to allow all youtube videos to show up, which was amazing, but now it’s not what it’s claiming to be as it’s not displaying any video that I want to listen to.
★★★★ Creative Cridisisome 5/11/2026 v2.5.0
DO NOT DOWNLOAD
I have been using this app for about six months now and for the most part besides the minor bugs, it was awesome until today. I just lost two of my playlist, about 800+ and another one I’ve been working on with about 160+ song respectively. I am absolutely upset because they had songs that I was transferring over from older playlist on different apps and new songs that I found recently and now because of this major bug or whatever you want to call it I have lost them. I wish there was some way to recover them but as far as I looked, it’s not possible I didn’t think to create a back up because I was still working on the playlist and up to this point have never once encountered this bug or seen anything about it. Please save yourself the time and look elsewhere. This app is not it. It doesn’t have all the songs that you would hope to find on top of also minor bugs and the major one as well. I understand that is a sub developer, but this is a crazy bug that seems to have only affected me unless others have as well. This is so disheartening I hope their is a way to recover, I don’t support Spotify and for this to happen is so disappointing.
★★★★ Prince Eko 5/10/2026 v2.5.0
Waste of money
One of the worst app I have ever seen. Can’t find/ play what you want. Lowest sound quality.
★★★★ ahmedyoussef93 5/5/2026 v2.5.0
So so
So so
★★★★ McChunky08 5/3/2026 v2.5.0
Too laggy, and makes you pay for a subscription
This app used to be very good at the start, but now it’s just gotten to laggy that it’s hard playing music like this.
★★★★ Poorer1 5/1/2026 v2.5.0
No I don’t like it
When ads pop up right when I open the app it makes me shut it off and use a different one
★★★★ Eddiefromeddieandthecruisers 4/30/2026 v2.5.0
I’m just a hater !!!
I put it like this I would rather watch the video that my step grandpaw sent to all his kids of him on his deathbed confessing to S/AING 7 of his grandchildren and then at the end of the video blowing his brains out. Then playing one song on this platform
★★★★ Gzirfi 4/29/2026 v2.5.0
Unable to skip ads
After showing ads there’s not a single close button showing
★★★★ bestreviewgivertee 4/24/2026 v2.5.0

★★★★ Ari Cruz x 4/24/2026 v2.5.0
Scam
i paid for premium, and it still won’t let me put any music on repeat. what was the point in me even paying for it?? this app is literally a scam.
★★★★ CristiaNo.6 4/16/2026 v2.4.9
Doesn’t shuffle playlist
Every time I hit shuffle on one of my playlists it plays the same songs and I have over 100 songs on it very annoying.
★★★★★ Kavel333 6/20/2026 v2.5.4
Shuffling is glitched
App is solid but when shuffling songs in a playlist it only plays a few songs and then will randomly stop playing. Also, when skipping songs it will not let you skip songs after a few.
★★★★★ Rocking Robin142 6/19/2026 v2.5.3

Won’t keep playlist and when I delete some playlist it stays!

Too much clean music
The only issue I have is that majority of the songs I like , they only have the clean version of and its annoying
★★★★★ Hatersmadforwhatever 6/14/2026 v2.5.3
It’s good BUT
It’s good but all of my 500 music doesn’t appear in my playlist only 100 of them😭😭
★★★★★ CuloConCaca15 6/2/2026 v2.5.2
Needs so many improvements
This app could be great but needs so many improvements first off sometime it’s super laggy at first I thought it was my phone but no it’s the app, also when you try to queue a song sometimes it doesn’t let you. Also when you click a playlist you want to listen to it only plays one song and doesn’t let you listen to the others unless you tap it yourself, then sometimes songs glitch out and play in silence, finally when you shuffle your playlist it only allows you to listen to like 15 songs from you playlist and that’s all instead of shuffling and letting you listen to all. Overall app need many bug fixes and improvements but if y’all fix it I know it will be an amazing app.
★★★★★ hi i’m helpful 5/31/2026 v2.5.2
mediocre
everytime i search for a less popular song, a different one with the same title will play instead. not all of your songs transfer, and not all of the song depictions are accurate.
★★★★★ Helpmesolvethisissuewithmyapp 5/18/2026 v2.5.1
Please read
The app is really good the only problem is when I first installed it everything was normal, I could search up things and listen to my favorite music but recently I have been experiencing a problem with the app itself every time I want to search up a song it doesn’t pop up instead it just gives me a video which I don’t want to stream or it doesn’t give me anything at all and I would really like to solve this issue since this is my favorite music app. I would like to be notified if it’s an update or I’m doing something wrong
