Ratings and reviews

This app used to be much better without the intrusive pop up video ads. You are often listening to music when using this app, so having it pause your music to play a loud ANNOYING ad for 5 seconds really is a enormous detriment to what used to be a handy and convenient app for music fans. Hard to recommend using it instead of the website in your browser. However, the app does work well aside from the ads. Shame that they ruin the experience so much.

Dang this app is Amazing. Sometimes I just can't believe how they gain access to certain samples used. This app has expanded my music knowledge and enjoyment Sooo much over the years. I recommend this ANYONE who loves music. And if your just a casual listener. Look up your favorite artist and I guarantee this app will take you on a journey you'll never regret. Get it!!!! I only wish I could discover some of People Under The Stairs samples as this app has only like 3. Maybe the People won't let t

I use this app every day, multiple times a day. Up until recently, I had literally no complaints about this app, in the 3ish years I've been using it. That is, up until the newest update happened.. Now (at least on my OnePlus 7T) you cannot fwd/rwd the songs anymore. So if the sample I need to hear occured at 8min in, I'd have to listen for 8min to hear the (probably 5 second long) sample. That is a HUGE problem that needs to be addressed. Thank God I didn't update the iPad smh
