  1. [R15] Mixcloud 3/5 · US Good service, rotting app: A decent service that hosts some great DJ sets. Unfortunately, the app is slowly being stripped of features. The ability to see what track is currently playing beyond a truncated title that might not even display the artist was made a premium feature a few months ago, and in a recent update the buttons for skipping forward and backward by 30 seconds were stripped out. I
  2. [R31] Mixcloud 2/5 · US High Quality of music, Low quality of life.: Downloaded the app a couple years ago now, you could download 2 or 3 tracks for free offline play, no fast forward restrictions, no subscription required. Now you’ve gotta pay if you want to use the skip ahead button more than 6 times a day. Sad how the app has fallen out of shape due to unfettered greed.
  3. [R64] Edjing Mix 1/5 · US …: When I first got the app in 2025 I was thrilled I loved how we could’ve used the stemz to control the music better and when I updated the app in 2026 I couldn’t use the stemz I had to pay for it I never thought in a million years that I would have to pay for this just to control music but I recommend yall put it back how it was cause I’m not paying for that if I would’ve known this I would’ve b
  4. [R112] Edjing Mix 1/5 · US Fell off hard: Used to be free. Then had to watch an ad to record. Then had to pay to use some features. Then had to pay to use any feature. Now the app doesn’t even open on my new phone. Pack this app up
  5. [R9] Mixcloud 3/5 · US Wide music choice ruined by faulty UI: Db radio and world wide DJ’s of every stripe a great plus. The fact that some times it works in landscape on my iPad, and then randomly will switch to portrait and not switch back. Frustrating to the point of not using the app any longer. It may seem minor, maybe it is, but it makes want to delete the app and sit in silence instead.
  6. [R12] Mixcloud 3/5 · US Initial thoughts…: Keeps stopping when I use other apps
  7. [R90] Edjing Mix 3/5 · GB New update sucks: Love the app but the new layout just ruined it. Plus the loop beats now have been changed due to the layout for some reason. I had a beat on 16 loop which doesn’t seem possible now. Please bring back the original layout
  8. [R114] Edjing Mix 3/5 · GB Keeps crashing: Using for first time and went through lessons but now trying to add songs to set and just crashes and lose all progress very frustrating and doesn’t connect to Spotify the most used music streaming platform
  9. [R1] Mixcloud 1/5 · US No connection: Every time I select music, it says there’s a problem with the connection
  10. [R10] Mixcloud 1/5 · US Can’t login at all!: Unexpected response from the server!!!!!!!!!
  11. [R67] Edjing Mix 1/5 · US Broken AGAIN: Come on guys?!? You had a good working app for less than ONE week and now with the latest update I can't load a single song from SoundCloud without it crashing. It's insane how impossible it seems for you guys to do things right.
  12. [R106] Edjing Mix 1/5 · US Warning: Don’t Update the app: Do you realize you can no longer record any of your mixes anymore. After over 10 years of being able to record your own mixes now you can’t. So the app is useless now.
  13. [R40] Mixcloud 1/5 · US Pushing to hard for paid use: Charging you to fast forward is really annoying
  14. [R61] Edjing Mix 2/5 · US sucks bro: Literally said in the ad it was FREE but when I opened the app, it literally said I had to pay for it? Hello? Scam much
  15. [R73] Edjing Mix 1/5 · US Trash: Bro I only downloaded this app so I can be a DJ but they making me pay just to do it like bro these companies are so greedy and half the people who made reviews on this app are just Ai
  16. [R46] Mixcloud 1/5 · US Premium???: Don’t bother this app is flawed, I upgrade to premium to be able to download and listen to music from my favorite DJ’s , but no dice. The download doesn’t work from the app first of all and after the last update you can’t play it from the website anymore. I’m cancel and would caution anyone looking to upgrade expect to listen to a stream without interruption Mixcloud Premium is not for
  17. [R55] Mixcloud 1/5 · US BOOST IS A SCAM!: I paid to have a mix boosted for 5 days. For several of those days, my mix was not promoted at all. When I contacted support to ask why it wasn’t being promoted when I paid to boost it for those days, I was told that I was only paying for a CHANCE at being promoted, based on how many people boosted at the same time. If 5 people pay to be promoted in the same category for 5 days,
  18. [R85] Edjing Mix 2/5 · US It’s bugged: I’m trying to buy the subscription but it won’t let me. It will just show the loading symbol then nothing happens
  19. [R117] Edjing Mix 2/5 · US DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE SPONSORED REVIEWS: The app itself is fine for the first time you mix something, but the second track just will not play the next time you use the app. Too many in app purchases and too expensive for the subscription. 👎🏼
