Ratings and reviews

Can't complain since this the only way to access Apple Music on AAOS, but my biggest issue is the app fails to connect after a few days and only works if you sign out and back in again (regardless of connection strength). Got so annoying that I just stopped using the app and went back to BT or CarPlay. Skipping tracks is also sluggish. You end up waiting 4-5 seconds for the next track to play

Edited review: I experienced some bugs with the app and noted in my review. I reached out to the developer and he quickly worked on a resolution. I have not tested the updates yet but the fact that he is so quick to respond speaks volumes about his passion for the end product, a true class act.

Amazing app! One thing that was missing going to Polestar 3 was a native Apple Music app. This app works great, pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a mobile app. Couple of suggestions that I'd have for future updates: 1) Quality setting, I'd love to just set it to max at all times. 2) On the first tab, add same recommendations you see in the iOS app, such as new releases for you, etc.
