Ratings and Reviews
Playlist bug
Sorry I postes this initially as a review to the Music app. But this only happens in Apple Music Classical. I have a playlist that was created in Music. Then I added a lot of entries to it from Music Classical. Now I cannot jump to songs down the list: i tap on a song and it plays a song at the start of the list. Very annoing!
Apple should be ashamed!
At first I was conspicuous to the idea of a dedicated app for classic music, and when they announced it, my immediate assumption was this will be a copy of Apple Music. Of course after release, unfortunately my hypothesis was proven right.
Indeed the structure of the app was updated to fit the classical music structure which is useful and I also find it cleaner, with less options/ clutter vs the regular Music app.
However there are many shortcomings and here I can name a few:
- I already identified several classic recordings that I have in my Music playlist but not available in the Classical one
- for some reason whe searching a composer/ artist/etc the results are so much split in multiple folders which is forcing us to have to eventually open each song one by one
- in the now playing view, you can not see the song full details, as this is always static. So when playing an album where the descriptions are long you rarely see which song you are currently listening.
All in all this doesn't look like a mature version and shouldn't have been released without further improvements.
Nice, finally supports iPad
I like it, Apple should’ve supported iPad from the start, I think not supporting your own hardware devices in your own app really hurt the brand when they opened the app before.
Developer Response ,
We are happy to share that Apple Music Classical now also offers a dedicated app for iPad.
