TIDAL Music: HiFi Sound 12+

Why I Love TIDAL Music:

TIDAL music is a streaming service that offers high fidelity sound, hi-def video quality, and expertly curated playlists and original content. I have been using TIDAL for a few months now and I am very impressed by the quality and variety of music that it provides. TIDAL has over 100 million songs from different genres, artists, and eras. I can easily find my favorite songs or discover new ones with the help of TIDAL’s recommendations and editorial picks. TIDAL also has exclusive content from some of the biggest names in music, such as JAY-Z, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and more. I can watch live concerts, documentaries, and original shows on TIDAL, which makes me feel closer to the artists and their stories. TIDAL also supports the artists and their rights, by paying them fairly and giving them creative control over their work. TIDAL has different plans and pricing options to suit different needs and budgets. I chose the HiFi plan, which gives me access to lossless audio and immersive sound experiences, such as Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio. I think TIDAL is worth every penny, because it delivers the best sound quality and the most diverse and engaging music content. TIDAL is more than just a music streaming service, it is a platform that celebrates music and culture. If you love music as much as I do, you should give TIDAL a try.

OK, Tidal .. Let’s Be Frank With Each Other

Yes .. Your platform is great and all BUT .. besides your move to simplify the subscription model in April, there are two glaring issues for me. They may seem small but I guess they’re not since I have left you for an inferior app. BRING CROSSFADE BACK! Stop playing, Tidal. There’s no reason for you to have omitted this feature with the recent updates. I don’t care what your research tells you. Enable the feature for the few that want it. The others that don’t use it probably don’t even know how to find it. Dead air in a playlist is a cardinal sin. As you may have guessed, I am a hobbyist DJ. I have since moved to Deezer solely for their crossfade and DJ software integration. I understand that there will be a tier for DJs at a price of $9 more than the original plan. Great. I’m willing to pay this but you should really consider bringing stems back. For whatever reason you cancelled this feature, we all have found workarounds. You not protecting the integrity of the artists anymore than other platforms that allow it. Bedroom DJs will mash up songs whether it’s cumbersome or integrated into an app. I wanna love your app like I have in the past. Do the right thing and capture the market with these two nominal additions. I will come back and give you the fifth star you so rightfully deserve (but only with those features) .. Signed, a frustrated end user who shares the gripes of many but has time to tell you about it. Your move, Tidal.

Just a few issues...

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.
