Very glitchy app. Most of the time it does not want to actually play any tracks. I find I have to add it to my library, then use Apple Music to play it. A really stupid issue, since any music app needs to first and foremost PLAY music, not just be a glorified search tool for another app. At this point I only keep this app because it does make searching for classical music easier than Music does. But having to switch back and forth to play anything is really annoying.

The app too often fails to work. When it does work, its great, but when it doesn't, it's rather useless. I currently can browse all the songs, but when you click play, it loads indefinitely and nothing plays. No matter what song I select morning plays. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app and still the same issue. Others have reported similar this happening in other reviews.

Despite all the frustrations, this is genuinely a great app to listen to classical music. It has it's problems, and the problems are big, it's not the best app when it comes to playing music and lacks features like download and everything, but despite all that, it makes listening to classical music just so much easier. And the listening guides are very well written and fantastically curated. I cannot not recommend this app to anyone who's interested in classical music. Apple keeps on impressing.
