  • How is it better than Music?

    I don’t understand how this is better than Music. Every time I launch, music has to load in this app where it’s “just there” in the Music app. It’s pretty glitchy too.

    For the love of Bach, just integrate this into the Apple Music app! It’s a waste of space out here on its own, and can’t get consistent love from the dev team so falls into disrepair occasionally.

    It’s a nice app, just wondering why I can’t find all work of a composer.
  • Must-have

    I have the regular Music app as well, but if you are streaming classical music this is a must-have. Easy to search and great recommendations, too. It makes navigating the endless classical releases much better.

    I don’t usually leave reviews but I am blown away by how excellent this app. Superb editorial staff, collection, and quality.

    Good app. Very possible its user error, but it would be helpful to have a shuffle feature so that listeners don’t start at the same spot on playlists each time.
  • It’s ok

    The Classical app user interface feels counterintuitive and laborious and requires toggling between the two apps. Easier and more intuitive hyperlinks would help. Also, Classical doesn’t show play track history Again, another toggle. And PLEASE identify between singles and albums. Or make the playing time available upfront. Otherwise I’m going down a wall of listings to distinguish the two because I rarely listen to singles. Three more issues concern the Classical Apple curated playlists: they aren’t the greatest; I can’t seem to make my own (?? afaik); classical recordings existed prior to than 2022. This bias towards the recent does two things: offering and supporting the current artists is positive and appreciated; however, many masterpieces of performance are neglected. I’m not such an audiophile that I require only remastered productions. However, I seriously appreciate having separate instruments listed. Who knew that in addition to cello, I favor clarinet and oboe as well? I can discover my own particular preferences while learning more about them and expand my appreciation. PLEASE integrate search functions between the two apps, or give Classical the same ease of search and curation.
  • Lack of macOS app

    Why is there no macOS app? Seems like a glaring oversight as many people have their high end stereo hooked up to their Macs rather than iPads…

    NO Apple Music Classical app for the Apple TV 4K devices I spent $150+ on. So I have to run down my iPhone or iPad battery to stream it to a decent set of speakers, or listen via earphones. We get the message loud & clear: classical music listeners get lost! I guess you don't mind giving business away to Spotify. Check. Got it.
