Microsoft Groove App Reviews

Only good for pc

Occasionally it takes time to load, but overall Im happy with how it works. Its awesome that I can access my OneDrive music collection so easily, good job Microsoft!

As an Xbox user Im forced to use this as my music service. Its still really a Microsoft afterthought, however. No genre music stations etc., and the iPhone app is pitiful for functionality...not even fast forward or rewind even though people have been asking for it for years. Apparently that technology is beyond MS. Very jealous of PS4 uses with Spotify.

Its terrible because it wont download or transfer my music from my computer to my iPhone. Also for some music you gotta download another app in order to support that music.

App works perfectly fine for me. Its easy to use and understand. But why cant I scrub through the song. Basic feature thats been missing. Please add this is an update

I really REALLY miss the original Groove application and THANK GOD Ive downloaded it when it was still available. Microsoft basically removed every function from the app and just purchased the name. Groove used to be incredibly fun, useful, and did not required to transfer music to OneDrive. I downloaded Groove in the past because the UI was much better than Apples Music app, which is even worse since Apple Music came out. Very, very disappointed. Theres now no more support from the original team for the first version and it might crash at one point on the next iOS releases. Microsoft should just put it back to where it was and just have OneDrive as an option. Because I dont want to use 4 GB from my plan everyday when im driving listening to music. <- I originally downloaded Groove for its sweet landscape mode, which added character to my cars music settings. What a bummer.

Its telling me I need a music pass to play the music that Ive already purchased and took off my computer and put on my account, I shouldnt need to pay money to listen to my own music? My collection isnt even loading up on my mobile, keeps saying “Its lonely here” when I was just playing music off the application on my computer and listening to it moments ago. However it will show my playlists (which again is all music Ive paid for in the past), and thats when it tells me that I need a music pass to listen to it. Please fix this.

The iPad can groove too... Why wont you give us iPad optimization? ;(

When this application will be available with Apple car?

I would really want to see this app grow in near future. The following improvements are needed: - Display optimisation for iPhone 6 (or 6s) Plus is missing. Currently app changes the display to zoom mode. - Time to load a song is a lot. And time to load the artwork is even longer. - While playing from Collection, the control does not automatically go the next song in the list. - Option to select choose the equalizer is missing.

It wont even let me login. Do not get this app it SUCKS

Why still require Music Pass to play music on my OneDrive ?!!? Cannot download my music on OneDrive to play offline !!

The app dont Connect i always have a problem. But only with apple device, work great on my xbox and my pc..

Crashes and doesnt let me sign in

I couldnt log in which was a problem. My email and password were all correct and I had proper internet connection so I dont know why I couldnt log in.

STAY AWAY!! I dont write reviews, but this app is so bad I have to. No customization, bad syncing, no features, SUPER slow to load, IF it loads, not seamless, not user friendly, there is literally nothing good about this app. Stay away at all costs.

Crashes on iPhone and iPad fairly often. iOS app creates duplicates in playlists. Microsoft support says "This is your trusted advisor, Karl C. Thanks for visiting Answer Desk for a complimentary consultation on Jan 15 2016 12:44 PM. I apologize if we got a misunderstanding from our previous conversation but we really cant help you regarding that issue because it seems that the issue is about your iOS. We really dont support iOS. You can try to get the songs on the Music Pass folder to save it on Groove Music." Umm what?

I like groove music. Great song selection and it works on my apple phone, smart tv, and on all my computers (I use PCs). I like how quickly I can create a playlist and it works when I use Bluetooth to connect my phone to a speaker.

It serves the very basic functionality of any other audio streaming service out there, and does it with suitable reliability, but doesnt do much more than that. Its Radio section is VERY skeleton, with no where near the variety of competitors. Saving for offline playback works as to be expected, but playback needs fastforward/rewind functionality; its a glaring oversight. Although, its great that I can stream my library of music saved to my OneDrive. Id argue thats its only real edge over competitors. I know, Im being generous. Anyway, come back in a year maybe when the app is more fleshed out. This looks more like a beta offering thats laying the foundation for the future rather than trying to be a true contender with the big dogs.

This app lacks basic features like skipping to next song. Does not work without internet. Takes forever to load music from one drive. Just waste of time!!!!!!!
