Microsoft Groove App Reviews

This app is a sorry excuse for a paid subscription miso service. Even after paying the same 9.99 a month other services charge I cant even change the position of playback on the songs. Its basically Pandora that you can pick the songs for the same money Spotify provides you with full music control and the ability to save and share playlists. This app cannot add one song to a playlist instead it selects every song on the screen whether you want it or not and you cant delete individual songs from a playlist only the whole list. This app is IMPOSSIBLE TO USE. Besides that you can get way more for the money from ANY OTHER MUSIC APP ON THE ITUNES STORE!!

Very frustrated with this app. Many times I cannot play the music but when I can the song spontaneously starts over. Stops and starts as well as crashes frequently! Argh!!!!

"Sorry but we cant play any of these tracks right now." Get used to that error when streaming and dont worry about that error for tracks in One Drive, because as other reviews will demonstrate, you will never see your One Drive tracks anyway. Cancelling after a year and feel glad I got that year for 30 USD!

I use this app to listen to audio books. Hard to use app when I cant scrub the audio. Please add audio scrubbing!

The perfect music app use it on my Xbox one surface and iPhone works like a charm!

MSFT, please improve this!

Cant even fast forward or rewind, making it kind of useless.

...I try to play over my trucks Bluetooth. I suspect it has more to do with iOS wanting to default to the iOS music app first. It just simply wont play at all. The tracks just pause and wont do a thing. Take it off Bluetooth and its fine. Thats not good enough, considering thats the only place I would use Groove on a phone. World great on Windows 10 phone, and works great on Windows 10 desktop and tablet. Barely functional on iOS.

Groove has come a long way on the iPhone but still needs finishing touches. Please add a thumbs down button when a song I do not like is played on my radio station. This thumbs down button will forever removed this song from my stations lineup.

Things I like- I like having the ability to listen to my library stored on onedrive without having to pay for a subscription. things to fix- -track scrubbing. why we cant have the ability to fast forward or scrub is beyond me.

I can listen to my music but it takes forever to find what I want to listen to. Im a free user so when I search for my music from OneDrive I dont want to see songs I dont own and cannot access regardless. I dont have this problem with the Windows 10 PC app where its very easy to navigate. Please consider revising the apps overall UI and search function to be similar to the Windows 10 app.

And has been doing this for some time now. Very frustrated

It does what its supposed to. Albeit...slow, ugly and slightly chaotic. It could definitely use to be updated to run smoother....oh and get the album dates right!!! Theyre fine on PC...but on this app album dates are out of whack!

Terrible app lacking simple features such as the ability to search my collection

This app is not as good as the version on Windows phones. Poor substitute. Cant purchase music. I cant even download songs that I have purchased on October app. I switched to iPhone because wp doesnt have apps and lumina 950 has Bluetooth issues. But I am becoming more of an Apple fan each day. Needs serious improvement iTunes looks better each day.

As a few before me stated, there are features missing that are on their core system. As a IPhone6S user with Apple Music available (Havent used it yet) I would love to have all the bells and whistles as I am sure Apple Music would provide.

Im a Microsoft fan and I use Groove elsewhere because of the great integration into Onedrive. But the music playback in this app will just stop then skip to the next song. They gave away the library streaming for free but arent putting the work into that they need to. This is eroding my confidence in Microsofts future as a music provider.

Its disappointing to see Microsoft putting their name behind this app.

This app needs an overall its so rudimentary. Confusing navigation, dont know what songs didnt download it just gives an error. No music identification, would be great to identify sound then add to playlist. Cannot purchase in-app which is annoying too. Another MS pet project...

Cant contact Microsoft ,used to be able to do a online chat with the people now I cant find that , want to use this but it wont let me sign in ! All my information is correct it even let me sign in within the computer app on the new Windows 10 ,all it says is that its ran by Xbox so I agree and then it just says "sorry we werent able to sign in . please try again " and I do and the same thing happens.. Like really ?! Im on the iPhone 6s please fix or Ill just use something else ...
