Anghami: Play Music & Podcasts 4+

Alexa integration is not great. If we can control the streaming session from mobile similar to controlling the music on another mobile or laptop it would be great. At the moment I can run two separate sessions for Anghami (1 on Alexa and 1 on my mobile) we are already struggling to control the app on Alexa because of the Arabic language so make it easier for us guys. Thanks

I’ve been using Anghami for years. At first it was a great app; even thought I did not pay for premium back then (I still don’t; college is expensive..), the app was super easy and comfortable to use, and I only had to be connected to listen to my playlists for hours on end.
Nowadays, it’s a totally different story. You either have to pay for a premium subscription, or you’re forced to listen to music that’s randomly “chosen for you”, even when you specifically press on your own playlists; you won’t be able to listen to the music you have saved unless you keep constantly clicking on the next song you want. Otherwise it’s all randomised music that doesn’t even match your taste, you can’t scrub, or play the previous song, and with each update it keeps getting more and more restrictive. I used to love this app; now it’s one of the worst apps I have to use. I get that you need to make money some way or another, but with this strategy I feel like most people would stop using the app all together. If you could just tone down a bit with all these restrictions, the app would go back to being a comfortable platform to use.

Those functionalities are now available for Anghami Plus users. Anghami pays royalties to Music labels for every song you play, each and every time. Those restrictions allow us to maintain those costs while offering you a lot of great music for free. For more details, please contact us Help / Contact us in-app for more details.

With every update they make they mess up something nice that used to be working just fine (that despite the too many restrictions on the free version, which is understandable, although debatable because by (me) listening to the adds they put (they) are making money!)... but I am talking about the favorite list that suddenly stopped playing in order nor in shuffle mode, so now, no matter of your playing mode choices, the app plays the first song from your favorites then continue with something else...

My reply:
Simply put, Anghami turned against their old friends!! the free version now plays random music only! It will not play liked music anymore!

I say -in this case- any radio channel would do the job... actually, to be fair, radio channels are doing much better work in that aspect... not mentioning the availability of alternative apps.

One listener down ;) keep up the greedy work.
