  1. [R1] LaMusica 1/5 · US Poor App: It doesn’t change stations without smashing. I have to close the app then open it again. Too much announcements when opening the app. Is a weak app.
  2. [R4] LaMusica 1/5 · US Audio Bug: I found a reproducible audio bug in v13.7.2, but the bug report form on the website also fails with ‘Something went wrong. Please try again.’” How can O report this?
  3. [R6] LaMusica 3/5 · US Good but…: Yo estaba conectado a la aplicación La Música todo el día. Me encanta El Despelote, What’s Up y El Reguero. Desafortunadamente, desde que hice el update a IOS 26, no he podido usarla. Cada vez que abro el app, el celular se sobre calienta de tal manera que hasta para de cargar. A la misma vez consume la batería en poco tiempo. Ojalá y puedan arreglar este problema.
  4. [R7] LaMusica 1/5 · US No sirve: Son inconsistentes con su funcionamiento
  5. [R9] LaMusica 3/5 · US No comerciales al abrir la app: No me gusta que salgan comerciales al abrir la app, a veces quiero ver una noticia que está pasando y se pierden 10 segundos
  6. [R28] LaMusica 1/5 · US Anuncio en la pantalla principal: El problema de ese anuncio es que no me permite cambiar la aplicación porque no escucho las otras aplicaciones tengo que cerrarlo y por esa razón no lo estoy casi usando
  7. [R40] LaMusica 1/5 · US Does not work for me!: This app since day 1 once I open the app it always starts with the same add and it gets stuck playing the same add over and over or it goes black and sound goes off. I’ve tried every possibility to fix it, uninstalling the app, signing back in and disconnecting from internet…nothing fixes the problem
  8. [R13] LaMusica 2/5 · US Home of El Barrio: While the content is fantastic, you can't access the programs as a podcast. To catch your favorite radio show, you'll need to transport yourself back to the 1990s and tune in at the designated radio time.
  9. [R15] LaMusica 3/5 · US Pongan el Barrio 94 Fácil acceso: Necesita más orden en el área de los podcast, tengo q escucharlos alrevez de final al principio. No reacciona en CarPlay.
  10. [R18] LaMusica 3/5 · US Despelote y otros podcast: Aveces pasa una semana y el podcast nunca existió eso hace que uno tenga que cojerle cariño a otras emisoras hay que ser mucho más responsable para eso les pagan
  11. [R19] LaMusica 1/5 · US 1: Los podcast de PR. Que son los que puedo escuchar los suben incompletos o no todos
  12. [R49] LaMusica 5/5 · US Hot: I have an iPhone 15 pro does anyone have a problem when your using the app the phone gets hot
  13. [R52] Spotify 4/5 · US Skips: Great app! Has all the songs you could possibly imagine. Only thing that is missing is that 6 skips is little, like just because I don’t have premium I only have 6 skips..
  14. [R54] Spotify 1/5 · US you give me nothing without premium. You treat me like if I don’t spend $125 a year on your premium.: 0/10
  15. [R55] Spotify 5/5 · US Faithful user of 7 years: This app never let me down, through highschool and into my adult life this is still quite amazing
  16. [R56] Spotify 3/5 · US Ok: I hate that on our free subscription. I can’t pick what order my songs playing on my playlist. Also, I hate you only get six skips and then at a certain point you guys just start playing the full track and I don’t wanna listen to all that.
  17. [R65] Amazon Music 1/5 · US Too Complicared: Needs to be slimmed down, stop forcing unwanted playlists from being crammed down your throat, and correct the issue of personal playlists disappearing when a new device is added.
  18. [R66] Amazon Music 5/5 · US Playlist problems: There has been patches to a lot of bugs for me, and I appreciate that a lot, but my biggest issue still isn’t fixed. My playlists are lagging so freaking hard. I need this fixed, it takes forever just to load into a playlist and even longer to scroll down enough to see the next 2 songs. Please fix the playlists!!!
  19. [R67] Amazon Music 3/5 · US Changed everything: App layout totally changed amd rose yet, music I purchased totally disappeared.
  20. [R68] Amazon Music 1/5 · US Worst music app ever: Horrible app doesn’t play the music or album you want it just shuffle to what ever
  21. [R79] Apple Podcasts 1/5 · US Worst app ever made by Apple: Just try doing a search / it’s the biggest piece of trash you could ever imagine. It is absolutely unfathomable how something that is used by so many people can be so unbelievably useless for things like search. Literally everybody who worked on this app should be fired.
  22. [R80] Apple Podcasts 4/5 · US Great App! Just needs more video game choices.: I love it but I constantly need to look for more podcasts about games I like and some people add like one episode which is annoying.
  23. [R81] Apple Podcasts 3/5 · US Love podcasts but this app is the bare minimum: The app itself could offer a far superior experience. They seem to only offer up Top Shows. Those are the easiest to find. Seems like it needs an overhaul so people can find shows they’ll like more easily.
  24. [R82] Apple Podcasts 1/5 · US Can’t search for episodes: I can’t search any episodes for shows in this app. So if my favorite show had a topic or guest years ago, the only way to find that old one is to scroll and scroll and scroll. Crazy such a feature is missing.
  25. [R93] iHeart 1/5 · US Disappointed: Used to use IHeart to listen to all the local morning radio shows… now that you’ve gotten rid of them all I will be deleting the app. Worthless now. If I could give a negative star I would…
  26. [R94] iHeart 5/5 · US Please Add Now: We need an EQUALIZER just like Spotify!
  27. [R95] iHeart 3/5 · US Darius feedback: It takes me back in time. I can’t decide if I want to listen to the 90’s rnb or listen to irrational music. I listen to a few songs before there is a stopping point. Yet there is no money in what I do. 3 stars is what I’m giving until my spirts feel otherwise.
  28. [R96] iHeart 1/5 · US DELETING: I understand the purpose of commercials but right in the middle of sentences in my radio program?? The final straw was 2 separate commercial stops in the middle of the SAME SENTENCE! We’re done here. Deleting
  29. [R107] Mixcloud 1/5 · US No connection: Every time I select music, it says there’s a problem with the connection
  30. [R108] Mixcloud 5/5 · US Mixcloud: Outstanding App. 💪🏾✊🏾
  31. [R109] Mixcloud 3/5 · US A bit problem: I can’t find my favorite track from dj session100 epic …..
  32. [R110] Mixcloud 2/5 · US Good to Bad to Ugly: MixCloud was one of my favorite apps for many years. Unfortunately it has gone from, Good to Bad to Ugly. The basic functionality was excellent for many years. Then inconsistencies crept in and increased throughout 2025. Frustrating, it is and has been for several months of 2026. Often I would share links for streams, several times a day. Now it rarely works well for mo
