I'm really enjoying this app for the most part. Atmospheres is my favorite, great background music for while I'm working. I do have occasional issues with the music cutting out and back on. I've also never been able to get the Sorcerer Radio 2 station to work. Looks like it's loading, then either stops or turns to the next station. There are enough other selections that it's not a big deal, but other options are still nice.
Love the music on here. However, when streaming the music continually stops for several seconds at the least, multiple times during a single song. Most of the time it stops playing completely and I have to switch stations to start the music again. Its EXTREMELY irritating. I do have my settings to allow background data for this app and I continue to have this issue.
The radio content is great, but the audio quality varies greatly. Not all station streams start successfully all the time. The app displays ads, which is understandable for a free app, but it also spams me with daily notifications that the app doesn't have a setting to disable, which is difficult to overlook. It also loses a whole star for not being able to be moved to SD card. The only reason I can think of for omitting this is that it "needs" to remain active for the notification spam.
Cuts out too often but great content. The app for Android doesnt seem to be as reliable as the iOS version. My Galaxy S10+ plays the app for about 5 min and then cuts out. The app shows the app playing, but no sound. When I pause the song, it goes back to main menu. Not worth restarting it constantly. The iOS version is more stable and when it works right, the content is top notch and entertaining. Like being in a Disney park.
EDIT: Turns out it was my power saving settings, had to turn off power saving for this app, work great now always! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Works great randomly on random days all day long. Most days though, after about 3 minutes the feed just cuts out. I want to use this app but I'm back to listening on TuneIn. Hope this can be fixed in the future.
Not perfect, but pretty close. The ads aren't too often which I enjoy. The music selection and channels offered are FANTASTIC. The app is just a little buggy. It crashes, just stops playing, or will just keep playing even if you shut down the app fully. Definitely needs some work, but the music is so divine!
Update Oct 2021: Still hasn't integrated the ability to cast to Google/Nest devices. This is a required feature that nearly every audio app includes at this point. Original Review: Great selection of Disney theme park music, songs, and background sounds. Appears that it doesn't use Android's built-in music playback, so things like play/pause controls from Bluetooth devices and auto-pausing don't work. Please update the app to use the built-in Android audio framework.
The music will stop after about 3 minutes of playing each time. I restarted my phone but the app no longer works for me but it was perfect before the update. Maybe it's because I'm using Pixel 2? Update: I tried that after reading the suggestion on another review. It didn't fix the problem and music still stops after a few minutes of playing.
I cannot live without this app. I suffer from depression and anxiety and I am 35 years d but this music makes me happy in a world where not much else does. plus it's free. I even buy the products in their ads! I enjoy the Kiste the historian books from Amazon and have already made several purchases from 3 cheeky chicks wax company. thank you for making this app!
It cuts off a lot. the previous version never shut down. i guess all the bells and whistles will take a while to get used to once you know how to navigate it. it is nice to have a choice at your fingertips nbut in typically put it on SR at work and let it play.
I am unhappy with this app! One...it doesn't stay Synced in my car, whenever I leave and return to my car it doesn't pause at the last song... so I lose the option of hearing the song I missed AND my other media downloads keeps coming thru. Two..it's starting to freeze up. Three...it never should have been taken off Tunein radio, at least it gave me what I asked for a STREAMING RADIO STATION. Four.... remind me too much of iHeartRadio. Five.. why all the permissions to use my phone??
Stops playing after ony a few minutes. Seems to be a long, ongoing issue others have but is being ignored. Use on Google home devices works fine. Uninstalling and will check back in a few months to see if devs have fixed. For now there's others like D Park Radio. Edit: the developers solution is not the fix. I searched for answers through other reviews and search engines and came up with the same answer they gave and it doesn't help. It also does the same with the app focused.
I really want to love this app because I love Disney and I love the atmospheres radio station but every time I try to use this app, the first time I install it, it works fine. I watch the ad and my station starts playing after. Every other time I try to use the app I watch the ad and then it just goes back to the home screen, the station never loads up and plays??
Great app. Absolutely love the channels SRsounds offers. Glad the app is continually getting improvements. It would be nice if the app communicated song information to my car (so it would display song name, etc.), and allowed autoplay similar to other audio apps.
They had one Called "Atmosphere" theme. It was awesome. I wish they bring it back as a channel. But otherwise it is good . I had updated my review. Awesome app, for everything Disney
I personally only use Atmospheres and I can't go 5 minutes without the music stopping and it can take a while for it to come back and sometimes it pauses itself. Very frustrating. Otherwise would be 5 stars.
I really want to like this and give it 5 stars, but I cant with all the dropouts, the random stops and garbled music at times. Too bad, the music is great and the app is a wonderful idea, if it worked.
The app has become more unstable lately. It regularly stops streaming after a few minutes. I have already turned off Optimize Battery for the app and it continues to stop streaming. Wish this issue would be resolved.
I would be happy if I could give this app five stars. However, it's glitchy, and generally crashes every 60-90 seconds. The desktop app works like a charm. Use that instead.
Great app to keep the magic alive when I can't get to the parks. Clear UI and impressive catalog of Disney tunes. It's not a perfect app, but it's as close to perfect as I can expect.
Love this app! By far my favorite channel for Disney World music! I love that they have multi channels now (Atmospheres is my favorite!) It's not cutting out nearly like it used to, but if they could fix that all together, they'll get 5 stars from me ☺
Great variety of instrumental music from all over Disney property. It takes a while to navigate because the screens are crowded.
The shows are great but the app needs some basic improvements like the ability to navigate forward or backwards on a podcast. If you're 20 mins in and the stream gets interrupted, the entire podcast will restart from the beginning with no way to get back to where you left off.
