TIDAL Music: HiFi, Ad-free 12+

All good but for one thing... the interface is more wonky and illogical than it should be. I like the ability in Apple Music to just play all of my songs on shuffle when I don’t want to spend time thinking about what to queue up. Why can’t I do this on TIDAL? Seems like a feature that could be added without effort. I also am a little baffled about how from my phone, laptop and Apple TV app the placement of items is different... I’m actually not that in to videos but on Apple TV TIDAL seems to view audio only offerings as the least important item... they do know that many people run their high end stereo systems using the app... currently one has to scroll all the way down through the same classic videos and movies to find new music, and after I play a new release it kicks me back to the top when all I wanted back up one step and play the next new track or a different new album. Huh? They have focus groups and all that they take feedback from right? But if I swallow my irritation with these kind of inexplicable weirdnesses TIDAL is the best of the streaming crowd. Please developers note the flexibility and ease we all need and up your game the rest of the way... if this is your best please know it’s not keeping up with the other guys.

Hello Management, I love the product, but it needs work in order to survive. It is my belief that Tidal is underfunded, yet has immense potential. Please see the below ideas that I believe will make Tidal more competitive. 1. Expand Artist Monetization and Branding: Allow Artists to monetize outside of number of listens. Buff up the Artist’s profile, make it an ecosystem where you can listening to the Artist’s music, buy their merch, see tour dates and ticket links, NFTs, and a place to know more about the Artist. Allow artists to create a brand via their profile, and monetization will come. This gives artists more opportunities to monetize in a way that also provides more content for the customer. 2. Incorporate Block’s Ecosystem: Free Tidal if you sign up for Cash App and/or Afterpay. Buy Tidal now, pay later interest free. Pay for Tidal services in Bitcoin. Your company ecosystem is your strength, make it known this is a Block product. 3. Needs more podcasts. It’s a huge addressable market, and it’s not being addressed. Allows podcasters to have the profile ecosystem (listed above) where they can better monetize and create their brand to customers. Make deals with popular podcasters, you simply have to spend money to make money. 4. Hire better product managers and developers. I could go into detail on app design and fixes, but a solid team would replicate my thoughts. Hiring a better team or fully utilizing Block’s staff will get the job done.

almost at the end of my free trial. PLEASE add an apple watch app. I hate having to carry my iphone with me when I workout just to listen to music, due to your lack of an app for the apple watch. Also, when connected to car bluetooth, the app glitches. when I leave the car, the music will pause. but when I get back in the car, it will not automatically start playing again. it makes me manually force close the app on my iphone and go back into the tidal app to resume playing (this also restarts the song i was playing, and sometimes the whole playlist. very annoying). i didn’t have this issue with apple music. I get “error loading this content” when trying to load my playlists through apple carplay, which, again, forces me to manually pull out my phone and do it from there. hopefully tidal reads this review and fixes these issues, as this would truly perfect the app and I would leave 5 stars. the sound quality is amazing, music definitely sounds the way the artist intended. the layout takes a little getting use to if you’re use to apple music, but I actually now prefer the layout of tidal. i love the tidal mixes and the different stations that they have available. it could be a perfect app if they fix these issues. not sure if i’ll be continuing to use it after my free trial ends, the lack of an apple watch app and the glitches that I put up with on daily basis (the ones I listed earlier) are a big turn off for me.
