   Ratings. Having already left 2 5-star reviews, I am CONSTANTLY prompted for more ratings, every couple of minutes while using the app on my phone. Come on guys! Enough already, seriously considering going back to Spotify if it persists for much longer. I will keep on giving 1-star reviews till it either stops or I leave.

4. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Stream. Coma cinema

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Extremely Annoying Review Prompt. Every single time I open this app they try to coerce me into reviewing it. I’ve reviewed it 3 stars multiple times. So now it’s getting 1 star and a comment. The prices are crazy too especially for a niche service that doesn’t even have a bunch artist catalogs

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Horrible. Recommendations stink and it literally won’t stop sending my push notifications to write this review when I open up the app. So here it is, one star

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Don’t ask me to review this app ever again. App is fine. It just kept asking me to write a review every time I opened the app. This is your punishment, Tidal.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Do better. Stop asking me to review over and over again. A third of my favorites randomly doesn’t play. Getting ready to leave this app

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   They asked me to write this 100 times. It’s terrible

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stupid popup rating. 1 star for constant pop ups for rating the app even if i already did.

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Tidal SUCKS. Music stops for no reason, I can’t play certain songs, I even tried downloading and it still stops for NO REASON.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Would be higher. But i got tired of tidal prompts for reviews. Hopefully this ends it. Review #17 from app prompt

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stop asking. I don’t want to review your site every time I open it up. Please stop

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Glitchy AF. Every day, I see the spinning wheel of death. It doesn’t matter where I am - in my house, on WiFi, on the go, inevitably it always pauses right in the middle of a song. I got this app because it was the most ethical of the streaming services… but y’all are making me want to rage against the machine. And what’s up with this error code “cannot play this song in your area” ?? Figure it out, Tidal.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Poor functionality. Can’t link as default music player for google home. -5 stars for continuous review pop ups after I gave it a review

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stop. Stop

17. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Software sucks. UI is alright, music algo is fine to good but downloads and offline function are buggy and disfunctional

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Data. Always lagging

19. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Pls. I really want to like this app but I absolutely cannot stand the music randomly pausing! This isn’t a pleasant listening experience especially when my account is premium and not even the downloaded don’t load. Pls fix thisss !

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Annoying. Kept asking me to review it so here ya go

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Fix this. Annoying keeps asking me to review every time I open the app

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Beware. I’m getting bombarded with requests to rate and review. Hoping this helps make it stop. Love the app

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Will you stop asking for ratings now, you hungry PoS?. Spotty connection, and obnoxiously pushy about rating the app.

24. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Ok, broken prototype. Have no idea how it was approved by Apple Store. I canceled my Apple Music subscription and subscribed to your music service because I wanted to use your app as a replacement for Apple Music for my family. After using it, I honestly feel that was a bad decision. The biggest problem is offline playback. I live in a rural area, so offline listening is essential for me and my kids. We downloaded songs expecting them to work without a strong internet connection. But when we are offline or in a low-network area, the downloaded music does not play. The app just keeps spinning and spinning. That makes the service basically unusable for our real daily use. For a music application, offline playback is not a secondary feature. It is a core requirement. If downloaded songs cannot reliably play offline, the app cannot realistically replace Apple Music or any serious family music subscription. general feedback: I’m giving this feedback genuinely. The idea may be good, but the current iOS app feels like a prototype, not a production-ready application. As a product experience, I would rate it around 2/10 right now. My serious recommendation is to hire a professional native iOS developer and a strong mobile product designer. The app needs major work from top to bottom: offline-first playback, reliability, loading behavior, error handling, navigation, and overall iOS product quality. I wanted this service to work, but right now the experience is too broken for a family to rely on.

25. ★★★★★"Downloaded" is a lie: offline tracks won't play without internet

    disappointed. i have tried downloading my playlists for at least a month, and as soon as I dont have cel service it stops playing even if the track shows as downloaded…. then when it is playing, and its on shuffle, it playa the same songs on repeat. i have to manually choose songs and take off the shuffle option for it to play everything else.

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Review. Everytime I open this app it ask for a review and it will not stop popping up and it’s frustrating.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Suck now. Sucks now

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stop telling me to review. App is fine. Shouldn’t be begged to rate every time I open

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Annoying. The app asks to be rated every time I use it!

30. ★★★★★saving, exporting or sharing the result fails

    Download is absolute trash. Seriously, how can I have download quality set to low, the app open, 5G and full bars, allowed downloads via mobile data and in 40 minutes, ONE SONG of 4 minutes has downloaded? I’m done with this damn company.
