Ratings and reviews

I can't do the same functions in landscape vs holding the phone upright like I used to before the update. In landscape I tap playlists and the song list doesn't show up till you rotate the phone upright. This looks very unfinished for how good this app has been for me till now. Very disappointing. - yes it does this without fail. Edit: this also does this with song selections too.

Freezes when scanning for content. Never finishes scanning. Is extremely slow to scan in any case. Sync to computer hardly ever works. Highly disappointed. I'm using .1152 and have a pro license. There is no difference. It is slow to scan and it freezes during the scan process. I have over 10,000 tracks and it may scan 2000 before it freezes. I kill the process and restart MMA, and not may scan a few hundred more files before freezing. This doesn't even touch the issues with sync.

not all that intuitive on how to sync successfully. looked up how on numerous sites and nothing worked until i had it automatically sync after connecting. when it works, it's great. decent free alternative to iTunes. when it doesnt work its hours spent disconnecting and reconnecting my phone till it somehow syncs.
