TIDAL Music: HiFi Sound

I love Tidal! The UI is farrrr better to me than Apple Music and Spotify. I love the layout and color schemes and the recent update to add photos to your playlists like other music streaming apps. The quality is amazing and my algorithm is shaping itself very well. I really like how tidal displays the lyrics, much more enjoyable than Spotify and Apple Music to read with tracks if I want. Simple yet clean. I also really enjoy how the credits on tracks and albums are displayed. There are bugs when I close the app, when I reopen, it takes me several songs back from where I was and I lose the moment I was in whether it was 2 min or 3 hours ago. Also I cannot scrub music with the skip and previous buttons, I have to move the slider to go back and forth which is annoying while driving or wanting to relisten to a part that happened 10 sec ago. I wish I could sync local files too but that’s not a huge deal to me. I also wish the top of the home page would display more recent, albums, playlists, artists, etc. I will have an album I’m listening to on rotation for multiple sessions and it will still have albums I haven’t listened to in weeks in my showcase/suggested area. If I scroll down however there is a “recently played” section that seems to update itself well. Even with some of the bugginess I prefer tidal as my main music app, especially for dedicated and intentional listening. I will still pop over to Spotify for casual listening and random mixes or playlists I’ve had over there for years.

I love tidal because it’s like Spotify but better✌️👍😁 This is a great music app

I switched to Tidal for several reasons, but hopefully this update helps ease my annoyances. So many crashes and super intermittent streaming is bumming me out.

i’ve been using the tidal for a while & have been a fan until the recent release which is buggy in line w many user complaints. i’ll give it another month or two to get fixed but apple makes it too easy to switch over and the practical quality of the music is now comparable. i’m sick of paying for stuff that doesn’t work!!

Super high quality music that integrates with my DJ and guitar rigs.

Heat

High monthly fee and you can’t even play songs for free with ads.

The best sounding music on the App Store!

Shuffle should be on or off. It’s that simple.

The search function is the biggest con on the app for me. I listen to many small artists and the search feature only likes to show larger artists even when you type the exact song and artist name if what you are looking for. It’s a struggle to find the smaller artists I listen to but atleast Tidal has these smaller artists that don’t seem to be on Apple Music.
