I recently switched from an Android to an iPhone. Thankfully, my music carried over. However, this app can't play through ONE song without cutting in and out. I love this app and I have over 3,000 songs, and I don't really want to switch to anything else but this is constantly crashing. PLEASE FIX THIS.

how do I become a google play subscriber idk at all how to so could you please make it easier or someone tell me how to!?!?

This app is horrible. Constantly freezes, slow and not user friendly . Things that would work better as a music app that this piece of crap include no app at all, hiring day workers to sing for you and those space aliens who are bound to be invading the earth at any time now

It needs to work flawless with the Google Home but it doesn't. It always pauses for no reason.

The app is useless it won’t even play music. It just holds space in your phone.

Awesome awesome awesome awesome

Put equalizer for the two apps for listen to music Youtube Music and Google Play Music

Overall I like it, I think the ad free you tube makes this an unbeatable value at the same time though I feel like they ignore this app. I don’t find new music too often on here, but all the songs are there. My chief complaint is that for some reason it deletes half of my liked songs playlist and I have to delete the app and redownload it to get the songs back which is mainly what I listen to

Love the app, got it when I got YouTube red. Idea for a future update: ability to add a song to multiple playlists at once instead of having to add one song one by one to a bunch of playlists. Thanks.

I love this app I comes in handy so much ❤️❤️

Ive noticed recently that the music is playing slightly faster than other streaming services. The artists sound like chipmunks.

I’m not able to play music I liked or play any playlist. Do I gotta pay to play my playlist and the music I liked? If so I’m going back to Spotify, I remember the days when this was FREE. SMH BAD GOOGLE!

There is no way to upgrade to family plan. Other than that. The menus move up on the top corners on my 8+ like its an X. It works smooth otherwise. I’ve always been a google person and just hopped to iPhone. I hope the upgrade and manage account type issue can be fixed.

As soon as the screen turns off on my phone the music stops if I'm using the headphone jack or Bluetooth. Then when I turn the screen back on it's a gamble if I can restart the music or if it crashes instead. Please fix since this is my go-to music app since I have all my albums uploaded to it.

Can you as the developer fix the problem with the update Apple did and make sure that people with iPhones older than the 8 can use this app? I pay for premium and I would like to use this app.

Im a long time android user and google lover, just got an iphone and still use play music. Its the best. One difference from android to ios is being able to drag and hold songs to move up and down the queue. Thanks google

Crashes a lot.

I love this app, but I do have one issue. When I try and delete a song on a playlist it doesn’t delete the one I selected. It deletes the 6th one, or so, away from the one I want deleted. It’s been this way for a long time and its really annoying me. But otherwise I have no other issues and use the app almost always daily.

I love this app but come guys update it and make it nicer! Dare I say YouTube Music looks 10x nicer than this being your MAIN music app Other than that I love it but give it a cosmetic update please! I think it's time.

Works great, its fast easy,

This app is crap. You can hardly do anything if you don’t feel like paying money through the nose for streaming.

Good selection of music and youtube music.

Each time I leave the app to open another one, it should continue to play my music in the background but It pauses my music for THE LONGEST five seconds ever! It’s outrageously irritating. It does the same dramatic pause when I return to the app to change a song, LONG DRAMATIC PAUSE ... UBER ANNOYING

If you switch phones a lot, you’ll hit the 10 phone limit easily. Then you try to deauthorize the old ones and it says you can only deauthorize 4 devices PER YEAR. With PCs, tablets and phones that’s a ridiculous number. Let me deauthorize as many as I want.

What happened to CarPlay. Now it’s just blank half the time.

Still a mess, no sound most of the time and a new “playing near you” that can’t be switched off. Go with iTunes or Spotify

I’ve been searching through the App Store looking good music I don’t have to buy, then I found google play music and was like YeAs! Now I can listen to whatever I want and whenever I want!

Every time I want to play Christmas music it crashes. And every time it updates I have to re download everything. I would appreciate if these were fixed Another big one is when I try to delete a song from a playlist, it deletes the one above it, and when I try deleting the one below it so it deletes the original song, it deletes itself and it's impossible to delete one song!

It’s been weeks..

I just love it

This app would get more stars but it seems like every other update, they take away the ability to separate the genres of music under the new releases. Put that back and I will up my star review.

When did this app get ADS?! I pay for my subscription🤬🤬🤬🤬

Every time I try to skip music it freezes up and then says it could play it and I have to press try again. Please fix this

Everything about the app is great but it could use more options . And more control over everything for the user . I would like to be able to feel like I can control every aspect of music that plays like what artists and blocking them and so on . Small options that should be there aren’t like blocking songs completely because it still plays thumbs down . And for the love of god can we fix the skip glitch . Everytime I skip multiple songs it gives me an error saying that it can’t play this right now . It is the most annoying thing ever . Especially when it skips two songs when you hit it once.add themes like seriously white is so lame . And pay attention to your reviews gooogle because nothing has been fixed

The app is fine, but I’m giving this 1 star since google still has not made a way to sign into Google Music without signing into my full Google account. This is a big privacy issue when using this service at work and other public places.

This is a great music app but so many other music apps have an equalizer for adjust the sound of their music. I feel that is the only thing missing from this app.

Only advice to make it even better. An option where you can get the lyrics of the songs would be nice. Also when we create a station based on a song, sometimes some of the songs that are recommended are far off the genre and aren’t that similar. Besides that this app is totally worth the subscription. The lyrics option should be for those who are subscribed of course

Its very pleasant n joyful this briliant app but I’m wondering why its out of service sometimes!

Can the iOS version please be updated to better suit iPhone users thank you

I’m new playing with it but wish it more on point

I have to act like I'm deleting the song below the song I want to delete or it deletes the song I don't want to delete. I really hope this gets fixed. ☹️ Update:11-18-18 Still having the same issue. Please fix this.

Worst user experience in my life. The first app where i can not pay money because google thinks that i can do it only on desktop. No link, no menu, nothing! I even think that 1 star is to much.

This service is great and I will always use it over Apple music and Spotify for the simple fact that google’s ability to find me what I like is impeccable, especially compared to the other apps. But for a while now I’ve used the “liked songs” section of the app to keep track of a lot of songs I come across, hundreds. But every now and then my entire playlist except for 4 songs will completely get deleted and I have to delete and re-download the entire app to recover the songs. This was a problem about a year ago and went away thankfully due to some update. However, I now find myself having the exact same problem over and over when I use the app, and it’s simply a pain to have to keep deleting and downloading over and over, especially since it resets my “recently played” section every time I do. This problem needs to be fixed for good and soon because it is a huge handicap for this amazing service and I would like to continue using the app, but I will switch if necessary.

Have had some off anon problems with offline download which is kind of the best future saw other than that it really works great threes a great selection of songs it's good early release and I have found that some songs here or not found other places also albums here almost always have album covers on like other places like Pandora and YouTube you'll get an album cover here I've seen album covers that I haven't seen other places so thumbs up on Google for this one plus it's a great price just really need to get on top of their game fixing the offline download which is where basically just forgets that it even download it and have to redo it all over again thanks again google

I’m trying to download the music I have for offline use so I don’t use my data and I can barely download anything without it crashing or not downloading at all I used to love this app but now it’s impossible

Music makes the world go round, with my headphones equipped; this app allows me to just be who I truly am through music

I like the randomness of the playlists. It’s been a great way to find good new music. I feel a little frustrated though when the track title is longer than a word or there is an artist featured, I have no option to click on it and see the full track title.

I love this app but (of course a but) for me I wish that I could make a playlist based off artist, not just songs or albums. Some artists have waaaaay too many songs I like, then to go to album after album, person after person. Yes, I sound lazy but it just seems easier.

So much music to pick I can’t believe it!

YOU ALL ARE CRAP I DONT WANT THE RADIO I WANT TO ADD MUSIC YOU FRICKING IDIOTS

Google – Please explain the why a premium paying user is limited to 4 devices they can de-authorities per year? Asking as many people have multiple devices they cycle through for personal and work, and sometimes you are unable to remove devices you no longer have in order to add new devices. Google Music is a great service that I find value in using every single day. This is why I’m wishfully putting above comment in the comments.

When I’m listening to music google play music I cannot tap my AirPods to use Siri. It gets stuck and freezes. However, when I close google play music, I don’t seem to have that issue.

I absolutely love this service. I just only wish it included a more diverse algorithm so my radios don’t replay the same stuff. I use the radio function to discover new artists. But I love the YouTube double functionality.

I love you Google but this is so frustrating .... The app (and even in the browser) STILL has the issue with playing users' own uploads: It will play the first few seconds (or sometimes 0 sec, sometimes half the track) before struggling to continue the rest of the track and just SKIP TO THE NEXT ONE. Then some more skipping halfway until the end of the album.😨😨😨 This is driving me crazy since it happens to almost every song in my library. And it doesn't happen to me alone. I've found forum threads with folks complaining about this since 2015 or even earlier. Yet it STILL doesn't get fixed yet? I expected more from a top company like Google. 😖 I've sent feedback both through the iOS app and the support forum. Tried reinstalling/logging out/clearing the cache, switching devices, etc. Nope. Nothing....😭😭😭😭 Please for the love of what's good and holy, at least acknowledge the bug and begin to work on it... I don't know exactly how many people are affected by this issue but as of now, Google Music is effectively unusable for unfortunate users like us. 😩💔💔💔💔💔💔 Thanks, we are counting on you guys 🙏 . -------------- Old review before I found out about the skipping problem. Wow thank you Google for google music and for this beautiful app (iPad ver too!) Much better than Spotify. Can't believe how convenient it is. I just started using it and have already discovered some amazing artists. Essential app for your iOS devices! Wish it supports lyrics and editing song tags in the following updates.

My only complaint is that when you are scrolling, the top bar completely disappears making it impossible to search a song or skip to the top. Fix that and this is definitely a 5 star app! They fixed it!

I have had nothing but problems with this garbage app. I’m so disappointed with google. 80% of the time the albums won’t download, or they just download 2 or 3 of the songs. App crashes quite often. The big one is I download music when home and then listen to them out in the field. It stores music in the DOWNLOADED ONLY and didn’t download them. It then streams the songs and kills my data. So when you play download only music, it’s still streams music. Just garbage.

I love the service but the app does not work with CarPlay; it’s very hit and miss (mostly miss). The app either doesn’t load properly or simply crashes. It’s a pain to pay for a service whose app does not get updated appropriately. I love the radio feature of the service and prefer it over Pandora; but won’t subscribe if the app isn’t fixed.

All I get is "can't play right now" messages, even with strong cell signal. Why don't you improve the app?

My family has been laying for the family subscription and YouTube red on this app for almost 2 years and all of a sudden they stopped YouTube red and replaces it with YouTube music. It’s annoying and inconvenient to a lot of people. I used YouTube red more than anything besides playing music on this app. Like what even is YouTube music. Useless.

Wonder when Google will build an app for the Apple Watch?!

It won't export/import your audio, from Google drive. Hello Google!! :/

When I tried to remove a song from a playlist it just removed the one above it over and over till the app crashed then when I restarted it I had to sign back into my account and it had erased all of my music. ALL OF IT!

Keeps freezing up when I try to play a downloaded song.

Is it when I pick one playlist the app will go off and start playing another playlist? Can I not pick what I listen to? Seems simple:

This app rarely gets updated and is horribly slow and buggy. It only gets updated a few times each year. Even YouTube gets weekly updates. Google Play Music for iOS will lag for sometimes 30 - 45 seconds, sometimes for 2 -3 minutes. It has become painful to use. Google should be ashamed of how it is letting this app rot.

I installed on an iPhone, hoping I could purchase music with my Google Play credits. Not happening. It’s fine for playing pre-purchased music from Google Play, but that’s not what I’m looking for.

Fix your sloppy app. Network is fine, everything else can play.

I have this on my iPhone now because I originally had android so it’s nice that I can still listen to my music. I don’t understand why it takes 3 to 5 days to download all my music though for offline streaming? A really big inconvenience.

First it was Windows Phone, then Windows 10, and now iOS. I use my iPad in my car and split screen GPS and Music. WHY does this app still not support split screen? I get Google Play Music included in my other google subscriptions, so I’d love to use this more, but I can’t due to this. Perhaps Google would prefer me to get a Pixel Slate so I can do that? Thanks Google!

Ugh google play music makes the best random playlists! They are literally FIRE! Pick any song you want to listen to and on the right hand side click and look for “start insta mix.” From your entire music collection, google will find the best songs that are most similar to the song you’ve chosen and create a random playlist for you to listen to. No other music app does it. It’s google play’s best feature. It has the best algorithm for pairing similar songs from any other music app!

Amazingly awesome

I Really Love This App I Give It An A+++++

It will be great if we could read lyrics in the app!

Artist section only scrolls to B

I cancelled my subscription way in advance and still was charged.. I keep trying to get my refund and cancel my subscription but have no idea how to.. keep following the prompts only to get nowhere...please help

Have nothing but issues with this app that the Google team refuses, or is inept, to fix. Songs skip over. Songs don't always play through and skip to the next song. Skipping songs will result in "something went wrong" it "can't do that" errors. This app is more hassle than its worth. Thankfully you get 50,000 free song uploads but that's probably why it's free, since it has so many problems that Google refuses to fix.

Please just fit it to the width of the screen!

CarPlay screen doesn’t load and even breaks the podcasts app if opened first! Hoped the new version (4mon+ later) would fix it, but it didn’t. Seems this app is sidelined in favor of YouTube music.

Apple CarPlay is the worst on here! You guys definitely need to fix it to make it load up faster or something because nothing is ever popping up! I HAVE to use my phone while I’m driving to change the song, that’s not safe at all.

Update: Once again, more and more updates and STILL no EQ added! So completely done with this service. Subscription canceled, after having it since it was a beta program. Spotify can have my $$$. They at least listen to their users. ✌️ I've been a subscriber to "All Access" on Android and then switched to iOS, ever since this was in beta, which means I've been using this system for a long time and also get the subscription at a discount. The service is good and I really have no complaints over that, but on iOS it NEEDS an equalizer implemented, just like it has on almost every single Android device. I know people have been asking for this feature for a long, long time (years.. literally) and you guys update frequently, but somehow can never seem to add a simple EQ?! This issue alone is making me consider leaving the platform and going to another service because Google, you simply DO NOT listen to your user base!!

It’s called Google Play Music but yet it won’t work with Google Home.It would be a decent service if it actually worked.This is a failure on Google behalf.

I have used google play since it started. Worth it.

It is working well for me I love it at night I listen to classical music and during the day hip hop it gets me moving on time and I love music so of course I would luv this😍😍😃

tuff

I live this app because it have my favorite songs best app ever

This app is easy to use with great content

I set one of my playlists to download for offline use but every time I add a song to the playlist is locks up and crashes. This also happens for my “thumbs up” auto playlist. Completely ridiculous that it’s still this garbage.

The app and web have both stopped working for me as of 2 weeks ago. I get hard HTTP 500s and support is useless even though I’m on the paid plan. Uploaded 8000 songs and trusted google but now I have no way to export them due to the errors and support just tells me to use the website. Don’t waste your money

This got all my music. It remarkable

I can download music and listen on here without internet

Stops playing frequently and I need to restart the app.

I’ve been using this service for quite a while now and at first I liked it: 10k (back then) free uploaded songs and great interface and easy to use. Flash forward to 2018, since February I’ve been experiencing trouble when I upload songs. It just doesn’t show up in my ‘Recently Added Playlist’ on the WEB version of GPM but strangely it does for the chromebook app but it doesn’t on my iPhone app.... the inconsistency was just appalling to say the least. So much that I just moved onto a new service. I don’t think I’ll return to using GPM as long as they have these bugs...

The best!

That’s almost the only thing that can distinguish one player greatly from another. I like the variety. By genre, mood, activity. And one playlist doesn’t have all the same as another

Before getting into my review, let me tell you how I’m using GPM. I have a 4 Chromecast Audios running 4 separate zones in my house, a google home for the kitchen, and a Chromecast enabled amp. Needless to say, I like to have music playing everywhere. Now into the review. As far as content, I’m satisfied. Feels very similar to Spotify in that I can play a song and then GPM will take it from there with similar tracks. Additionally, I haven’t noticed any issues using GPM with a Chromecast and Toslink cable, I can’t say the same for Deezer, which was so bad, I had to switch back to the analog cable. Why only 3 stars? As mentioned above I have multiple zones in my house, but that doesn’t mean I want the volume to be the same in each zone. An aggravation with the app and the website is that I can’t adjust individual speaker volume within a group unless I bounce out of the app, open google Home app, navigate to the group and after a couple more clicks can finally change individual speaker volume. What’s crazy is that GPM competitors have this feature! That’s why I initially started with Deezer, but it’s not just them, SoundCloud has it too. With 1 click of the cast button, I can see all the speakers that are playing in the group and slide the volume as needed. I was hoping that the refreshed Google Home app would be more Sonos-like, in that it would offer a single app solution, but regrettably that wasn’t the case, so I have to look to the streaming service to be the single app solution and GPM isn’t it. Anyway, seems like an easy fix for google. Next area of annoyance is that if I use my voice to tell Google Home to play music and later pull out my phone to make an adjust or change the track, GPM doesn’t always recognize that music is already playing and I have to basically re-cast from the app thereby interrupting what is currently playing. This doesn’t seem like a terribly tall order since the app, google home and Chromecast Audios are in the same ecosystem, you would think they would play a bit nicer. Now that I got my grievances out of the way, GPM does do a number of things wells which is why I’m going to stick it out with them and hope that they fix the above annoyances or until I get so annoyed that I through all my google hardware in the trash and shell out more than I paid for my first car to fully invest with Sonos.

I use the Google Music site at work, and I absolutely adore it. When I downloaded the app, I expected a nice, usable app to listen to my music on. I was very disappointed with what I got instead. The app is slow, glitchy, disorganized, and an overall mess. It pauses my music when I’m trying to scroll through my playlist, as well as cutting off my music completely if I skip more than three times. It’s a very frustrating experience.

I love the app's functionality as a handheld music player, but as soon as I need to use it in the car it becomes a hazard. In vehicles (where I use landscape mode for GPS) GPM doesn't rotate. In vehicles with Carplay the music pauses every time Google Maps needs the audio and then fails to resume. These are the types of issues I remember from smartphones 8 years ago, and I'm not interested in this kind of nostalgia.

I think u when you get a new phone all ur music should be able to transfer when you login to ur google account

I need my refund now

I recently switched from an Android to an iPhone. Thankfully, my music carried over. However, this app can't play through ONE song without cutting in and out. I love this app and I have over 3,000 songs, and I don't really want to switch to anything else but this is constantly crashing. PLEASE FIX THIS.

how do I become a google play subscriber idk at all how to so could you please make it easier or someone tell me how to!?!?

This app is horrible. Constantly freezes, slow and not user friendly . Things that would work better as a music app that this piece of crap include no app at all, hiring day workers to sing for you and those space aliens who are bound to be invading the earth at any time now

It needs to work flawless with the Google Home but it doesn't. It always pauses for no reason.

Google Music is a great service that I find value in using every single day. This is why I’m wishfully putting above comment in the comments.

When I’m listening to music google play music I cannot tap my AirPods to use Siri. It gets stuck and freezes. However, when I close google play music, I don’t seem to have that issue.

I absolutely love this service. I just only wish it included a more diverse algorithm so my radios don’t replay the same stuff. I use the radio function to discover new artists. But I love the YouTube double functionality.

I love you Google but this is so frustrating .... The app (and even in the browser) STILL has the issue with playing users' own uploads: It will play the first few seconds (or sometimes 0 sec, sometimes half the track) before struggling to continue the rest of the track and just SKIP TO THE NEXT ONE. Then some more skipping halfway until the end of the album.😨😨😨 This is driving me crazy since it happens to almost every song in my library. And it doesn't happen to me alone. I've found forum threads with folks complaining about this since 2015 or even earlier. Yet it STILL doesn't get fixed yet? I expected more from a top company like Google. 😖 I've sent feedback both through the iOS app and the support forum. Tried reinstalling/logging out/clearing the cache, switching devices, etc. Nope. Nothing....😭😭😭😭 Please for the love of what's good and holy, at least acknowledge the bug and begin to work on it... I don't know exactly how many people are affected by this issue but as of now, Google Music is effectively unusable for unfortunate users like us. 😩💔💔💔💔💔💔 Thanks, we are counting on you guys 🙏 . -------------- Old review before I found out about the skipping problem. Wow thank you Google for google music and for this beautiful app (iPad ver too!) Much better than Spotify. Can't believe how convenient it is. I just started using it and have already discovered some amazing artists. Essential app for your iOS devices! Wish it supports lyrics and editing song tags in the following updates.

My only complaint is that when you are scrolling, the top bar completely disappears making it impossible to search a song or skip to the top. Fix that and this is definitely a 5 star app! They fixed it!

I have had nothing but problems with this garbage app. I’m so disappointed with google. 80% of the time the albums won’t download, or they just download 2 or 3 of the songs. App crashes quite often. The big one is I download music when home and then listen to them out in the field. It stores music in the DOWNLOADED ONLY and didn’t download them. It then streams the songs and kills my data. So when you play download only music, it’s still streams music. Just garbage.

I love the service but the app does not work with CarPlay; it’s very hit and miss (mostly miss). The app either doesn’t load properly or simply crashes. It’s a pain to pay for a service whose app does not get updated appropriately. I love the radio feature of the service and prefer it over Pandora; but won’t subscribe if the app isn’t fixed.

All I get is "can't play right now" messages, even with strong cell signal. Why don't you improve the app?

My family has been laying for the family subscription and YouTube red on this app for almost 2 years and all of a sudden they stopped YouTube red and replaces it with YouTube music. It’s annoying and inconvenient to a lot of people. I used YouTube red more than anything besides playing music on this app. Like what even is YouTube music. Useless.

Wonder when Google will build an app for the Apple Watch?!

It won't export/import your audio, from Google drive. Hello Google!! :/

When I tried to remove a song from a playlist it just removed the one above it over and over till the app crashed then when I restarted it I had to sign back into my account and it had erased all of my music. ALL OF IT!

Keeps freezing up when I try to play a downloaded song.

Is it when I pick one playlist the app will go off and start playing another playlist? Can I not pick what I listen to? Seems simple:

This app rarely gets updated and is horribly slow and buggy. It only gets updated a few times each year. Even YouTube gets weekly updates. Google Play Music for iOS will lag for sometimes 30 - 45 seconds, sometimes for 2 -3 minutes. It has become painful to use. Google should be ashamed of how it is letting this app rot.

I installed on an iPhone, hoping I could purchase music with my Google Play credits. Not happening. It’s fine for playing pre-purchased music from Google Play, but that’s not what I’m looking for.

Fix your sloppy app. Network is fine, everything else can play.

I have this on my iPhone now because I originally had android so it’s nice that I can still listen to my music. I don’t understand why it takes 3 to 5 days to download all my music though for offline streaming? A really big inconvenience.

First it was Windows Phone, then Windows 10, and now iOS. I use my iPad in my car and split screen GPS and Music. WHY does this app still not support split screen? I get Google Play Music included in my other google subscriptions, so I’d love to use this more, but I can’t due to this. Perhaps Google would prefer me to get a Pixel Slate so I can do that? Thanks Google!

Ugh google play music makes the best random playlists! They are literally FIRE! Pick any song you want to listen to and on the right hand side click and look for “start insta mix.” From your entire music collection, google will find the best songs that are most similar to the song you’ve chosen and create a random playlist for you to listen to. No other music app does it. It’s google play’s best feature. It has the best algorithm for pairing similar songs from any other music app!

Amazingly awesome

I Really Love This App I Give It An A+++++

It will be great if we could read lyrics in the app!

Artist section only scrolls to B

I cancelled my subscription way in advance and still was charged.. I keep trying to get my refund and cancel my subscription but have no idea how to.. keep following the prompts only to get nowhere...please help

Have nothing but issues with this app that the Google team refuses, or is inept, to fix. Songs skip over. Songs don't always play through and skip to the next song. Skipping songs will result in "something went wrong" it "can't do that" errors. This app is more hassle than its worth. Thankfully you get 50,000 free song uploads but that's probably why it's free, since it has so many problems that Google refuses to fix.

Please just fit it to the width of the screen!

CarPlay screen doesn’t load and even breaks the podcasts app if opened first! Hoped the new version (4mon+ later) would fix it, but it didn’t. Seems this app is sidelined in favor of YouTube music.

Apple CarPlay is the worst on here! You guys definitely need to fix it to make it load up faster or something because nothing is ever popping up! I HAVE to use my phone while I’m driving to change the song, that’s not safe at all.

Update: Once again, more and more updates and STILL no EQ added! So completely done with this service. Subscription canceled, after having it since it was a beta program. Spotify can have my $$$. They at least listen to their users. ✌️ I've been a subscriber to "All Access" on Android and then switched to iOS, ever since this was in beta, which means I've been using this system for a long time and also get the subscription at a discount. The service is good and I really have no complaints over that, but on iOS it NEEDS an equalizer implemented, just like it has on almost every single Android device. I know people have been asking for this feature for a long, long time (years.. literally) and you guys update frequently, but somehow can never seem to add a simple EQ?! This issue alone is making me consider leaving the platform and going to another service because Google, you simply DO NOT listen to your user base!!

It’s called Google Play Music but yet it won’t work with Google Home.It would be a decent service if it actually worked.This is a failure on Google behalf.

I have used google play since it started. Worth it.

It is working well for me I love it at night I listen to classical music and during the day hip hop it gets me moving on time and I love music so of course I would luv this😍😍😃

tuff

I live this app because it have my favorite songs best app ever

This app is easy to use with great content

I set one of my playlists to download for offline use but every time I add a song to the playlist is locks up and crashes. This also happens for my “thumbs up” auto playlist. Completely ridiculous that it’s still this garbage.

The app and web have both stopped working for me as of 2 weeks ago. I get hard HTTP 500s and support is useless even though I’m on the paid plan. Uploaded 8000 songs and trusted google but now I have no way to export them due to the errors and support just tells me to use the website. Don’t waste your money

This got all my music. It remarkable

I can download music and listen on here without internet

Stops playing frequently and I need to restart the app.

I’ve been using this service for quite a while now and at first I liked it: 10k (back then) free uploaded songs and great interface and easy to use. Flash forward to 2018, since February I’ve been experiencing trouble when I upload songs. It just doesn’t show up in my ‘Recently Added Playlist’ on the WEB version of GPM but strangely it does for the chromebook app but it doesn’t on my iPhone app.... the inconsistency was just appalling to say the least. So much that I just moved onto a new service. I don’t think I’ll return to using GPM as long as they have these bugs...

The best!

That’s almost the only thing that can distinguish one player greatly from another. I like the variety. By genre, mood, activity. And one playlist doesn’t have all the same as another

Before getting into my review, let me tell you how I’m using GPM. I have a 4 Chromecast Audios running 4 separate zones in my house, a google home for the kitchen, and a Chromecast enabled amp. Needless to say, I like to have music playing everywhere. Now into the review. As far as content, I’m satisfied. Feels very similar to Spotify in that I can play a song and then GPM will take it from there with similar tracks. Additionally, I haven’t noticed any issues using GPM with a Chromecast and Toslink cable, I can’t say the same for Deezer, which was so bad, I had to switch back to the analog cable. Why only 3 stars? As mentioned above I have multiple zones in my house, but that doesn’t mean I want the volume to be the same in each zone. An aggravation with the app and the website is that I can’t adjust individual speaker volume within a group unless I bounce out of the app, open google Home app, navigate to the group and after a couple more clicks can finally change individual speaker volume. What’s crazy is that GPM competitors have this feature! That’s why I initially started with Deezer, but it’s not just them, SoundCloud has it too. With 1 click of the cast button, I can see all the speakers that are playing in the group and slide the volume as needed. I was hoping that the refreshed Google Home app would be more Sonos-like, in that it would offer a single app solution, but regrettably that wasn’t the case, so I have to look to the streaming service to be the single app solution and GPM isn’t it. Anyway, seems like an easy fix for google. Next area of annoyance is that if I use my voice to tell Google Home to play music and later pull out my phone to make an adjust or change the track, GPM doesn’t always recognize that music is already playing and I have to basically re-cast from the app thereby interrupting what is currently playing. This doesn’t seem like a terribly tall order since the app, google home and Chromecast Audios are in the same ecosystem, you would think they would play a bit nicer. Now that I got my grievances out of the way, GPM does do a number of things wells which is why I’m going to stick it out with them and hope that they fix the above annoyances or until I get so annoyed that I through all my google hardware in the trash and shell out more than I paid for my first car to fully invest with Sonos.

I use the Google Music site at work, and I absolutely adore it. When I downloaded the app, I expected a nice, usable app to listen to my music on. I was very disappointed with what I got instead. The app is slow, glitchy, disorganized, and an overall mess. It pauses my music when I’m trying to scroll through my playlist, as well as cutting off my music completely if I skip more than three times. It’s a very frustrating experience.

I love the app's functionality as a handheld music player, but as soon as I need to use it in the car it becomes a hazard. In vehicles (where I use landscape mode for GPS) GPM doesn't rotate. In vehicles with Carplay the music pauses every time Google Maps needs the audio and then fails to resume. These are the types of issues I remember from smartphones 8 years ago, and I'm not interested in this kind of nostalgia.

I think u when you get a new phone all ur music should be able to transfer when you login to ur google account

I need my refund now
