LaMusica offers access to popular Spanish-language radio stations and shows, but frequent technical issues, excessive advertisements, and problems with podcast availability significantly detract from its value.

LaMusica provides free access to various radio stations, including popular morning shows and salsa music, which many users appreciate. However, the app is plagued by frequent disconnections, audio bugs, and an overwhelming number of commercials, making the user experience frustrating. Recent updates have also removed or broken podcast functionality, a feature many users relied on.

Free vs paid

The app is listed as free with in-app purchases, but the reviews do not specify what content or features are locked behind a paywall. All mentioned issues, such as frequent ads, technical glitches, and podcast problems, appear to affect the free experience.

Worth paying if

Evidence note: The app has a high lifetime rating, but recent reviews are overwhelmingly negative, focusing on critical technical issues and the removal of key features like podcasts.

  1. [R6] 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. [R40] 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
  3. [R54] 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
  4. [R99] 1/5 · US Music: Way to many commercial’s
  5. [R10] 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?
  6. [R12] 1/5 · US No sirve: Son inconsistentes con su funcionamiento
  7. [R21] 1/5 · US Interrumpiciones: Constantemente se interrumpe el programa, puede estar a mitad de segmento y se deja de escuchar o empieza a salir la cancion de la nena “la musica tv”
  8. [R22] 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. [R42] 1/5 · US 1: Los podcast de PR. Que son los que puedo escuchar los suben incompletos o no todos
  10. [R50] 5/5 · US Podcasts en audio y no en video: Yo siempre salía de trabajar por la noche y ponía a Molusco y los reyes de la punta y veía el programa completo.Pregunto,por qué ellos sí y ustedes no. Uno tiene que mamarce los anuncios y las canciones en los comerciales. Expliquén!!!
  11. [R57] 1/5 · US Cada update es peor: En uno de los últimos update, separaron el podcast en audio y audio&video. Qué desastre! Ahora cuando un locutor dice “vean esto” yo simplemente lo ignoro porque no voy a alternar entre los dos formatos. Y ahora, la aplicación no guarda que episodios he escuchado. Ajusten estos fallos.
  12. [R27] 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. [R34] 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.
  14. [R2] 5/5 · US Z: Excelente programación
  15. [R4] 5/5 · US Morning show: The morning show starts my day on the right note. I have the volume blasting listening to all the great songs. The topics that the guys bring up are all very interesting. Eddie one is very intellectual. Smoochie of course always the controversial one in the show but this duo complement each other.
  16. [R7] 5/5 · US El mejor programa RB: Tiene el mejor show Raúl Brindis y el mejor equipo con el por eso es el #1
  17. [R8] 5/5 · US 5 starssss: Dj Eddie one is a great DJ !! Smoochie is funny haha ! Great pair of host 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
  18. [R19] 5/5 · US La Musica: Me encanta , escucho Estereo Tempo de Puerto Rico mi emisora favorita cuando vivía alla.
  19. [R37] 5/5 · US Lo mejor: La paso de lo más bien en el trabajo ya q no tenemos radio y la oigo desde mi celular
  20. [R47] 5/5 · US Alex Sensation Rocks: I can listen to La Mega w Alex Sensation from anywhere from the World. 🙏✊🙏
  21. [R49] 5/5 · US Best station: I love la mega and the app is aweome! I listen from the morning to the night Monday to Friday while at work or home. Also on the weekends at home and on the road.
