AMAZING WIDGETS. The widgets are super amazing!! They look super cool and you can control your music unlike Spotify’s widgets. The only thing is that even with the app open sometime when the next song comes on you have to click on the widget and go to the app for it to realize the new song came on and update the widget image. If they optimize the background refresh it would be amazing, but I guarantee apple probably prevents it until they create widgets just as cool. OVERALL SUPER DOPE!!!!!

Cool but not worth it. As other reviews have said, its super cool that this widget is animated, however, I wish it worked better. unfortunately the widget doesn’t work half of the time. this would normally be a relatively minor issue, but considering you have to pay for unlimited use of the widget… i cant justify spending any money on something that glitches that frequently, even if its just $2.

Best one so far👏👏. Super cute and I really like it, and unlimited is super cheap!!! It’s literally perfect- EXCEPT I would really appreciate it if the songs could automatically change. When my song changes, the widget doesn’t, and I have to open the app to change it, which can get a little annoying…and- not a huge deal, but there could be more background color options. OTHERWISE! The app is great! These are just my little issues, but it really is a good app.

Cool app!. The app is very fun! I bought the unlimited as soon as I downloaded because it was super affordable! Best $3 I spent!! my only concern is that it doesn’t change to the song that i’m currently listening to. For example I play a song and then when that song ends and plays the next one song, the little vinyl and song title won’t change until I click it! :( and when I click next it kinda glitches into the app instead of playing the next song other than that the app is super unique and it’s my new favorite thing !

looks cool, but that’s about it. really wanted to love this app. great idea, terrible execution. if you attempt to use the controls on the widget, the app will begin to zoom in as if you are opening it, and then it will immediately snap back to the desktop. you would also think that clicking the widget would take you immediately to the music player, but instead it awkwardly loads the vinyl widget app and THEN switches over to apple music. an overall ugly experience on an otherwise beautiful device. refund requested.

Works great. But just a bit buggy. When I use it, it works for one or two songs after that it stops working, and when I press the widget, it won’t take me to my app. It would be nice if it was still continue to run in the background after I shut my phone but once I shut it stop. Other than that it’s a really cool app and it’s fun to use it.

such a cool widget. Love the idea of this and I saw it on tik tok and did not let me down. I bought the premium edition and I have all the widgets and I get so much compliments and people always wanna know where they can find it, it’s so cool and the best part it counts the number of music you listen on it, so it’s pretty cool seeing how many songs I’ve listened too :)

Love the aesthetic. this app and widget is so easy to use!! i’m obsessed with how it looks again my home screen. Definitely worth the download and the purchase of premium. the premium is only a one time purchase ($1.99), which i think is way better than the subscription premiums other apps charge!

I wish I could get my money back. The app worked before I paid money and a little bit after, but eventually it got stuck on one song and never showed any of the new music I played. I restarted the app, uninstalled and reinstalled it. Now it just doesn’t show any of the music I play at all. It’s stuck on the default “music”. I restarted my phone. Restarted the app. Everything. It doesn’t work. What a waste of money.

Good in theory. Even the free version is cute and I like how it looks and how the colors moves around. The problem is it doesn’t sync up with your music unless you click on the widget to open it and then it refreshes to the current song. This is really annoying and basically defeats the purpose of the widget in the first place imo

Fine but there’s a bug. This app works GREAT but there’s a bug. The bug is that there is only 1 song playing on the widget. The song on the widgets qre not changing when I play another song; they just stay on that 1 song and whenever I click “Play” it spins the vinyl but it stays as the previous song, not the currently playing one. Please help me find a fix!

Good app. I rarely write reviews but I love this widget. Its really cute to just have and i havent had any issues with playing besides needing to click the widget everytime I want to start listening to music instead of it automatically starting. Theres also a limit to the songs you can play with the vinyl showing which wasn’t a big problem until i realized it counted a song playing if i accidentally skipped or decided not to listen to that song. So felt like a waste of a song. Other than that the app is cute and I would definitely recommend it to people.

Great Design…but. Love the design of the widget, adds a little bit of zest to my Home Screen. My only complaint is that the widget does not update when the song changes. Not sure if this is an issue for everybody, or just me, but it’s a tad annoying to have to reopen the app every time a new song starts just to update the widget.

Slow to Update Song. I love the idea and simplicity of this widget. But it reallyyyyy needs to update the song that is displayed as soon as it changes. I shouldn’t have to wait a while or click on the widget for it to display what song is *actually* playing instead of what was playing 5 minutes ago.

Love the app!!. I love the app and I see some reviews that have great ideas that will make this app explode! I know someone mentioned having play/pause and forward/back functions and I think that would make this app the perfect app! One other thing would be transparnecy! I am not sure if that's possible as I am no app developer! Kudos to you!!

Great for the Aesthetic. Saw a Tiktok complementing the app so I had to try it!! It works amazing and it even has a feature that creates a vinyl of the song that is playing. You can get up to 250 songs because you do have a limit of songs but there is a premium choice that gives you unlimited songs. Only for 3 dollars!!

Absolutely horrible!. This "app" doesn't work. All you do is connect your service and get greeted with a ton of ads and nothing but widgets that you can "upgrade" the app with real money to use. I watched the ad to unlock the first widget but I don't want a widget, I want an app that shows a record player when using the app. But no. This is just a horribly designed app that shows nothing but ads for everything you navigate to. No record player. Nothing. Waste of a download. I don't even use widgets.

Great app. This is a really great app. I recommend spending the few dollars for a more expansive use of the widgets such as the record player widget, the radio widget or the vinyl widget. You can customize each to a different color and sizes; overall you just get more customizable options when you pay the few dollars which I love. My only complaint is that the widget sometimes doesn’t show what song is playing like sometimes it’ll show the song that was previously played and not the current song that is playing. But it can be easily fixed when you go into the app. This is only a small issue so I will give credit where it’s due and keep it at 5 stars!

Little jump buggy. I love this widget and its the only thing I have put up on my Home Screen. The only thing that bugs me is it jumps/tries to open the app when you press the controls. If this was fixed this app would be a 10/10 across the board

i love it. Ive had this for some months now and im not getting rid if it because it makes my home screen look cute and its a good way to keep up with the song i played last so i dont play it again before playing my other songs i wanted to listen to :) 😻

I love this app. It’s a good app I really recommend paying the few extra dollars it works so great I absolutely love the radio widget and they give you great deals for like a lifetime like I got it for 2.99 when they were having a deal sometimes I do have a problem with it like showing the music that I’m not playing but overall it’s been a good app

Great widget super cute!! Though-. So wish there was a way to edit the color of it or even put a background for the widget. Since so many people have like a theme to their phone or don’t like the black. Would be very cute to have a way for it to either choose colors or background (make it look like an actual record player!) but otherwise very cute to use and super easy!

Great app. I bought the premium which so far I have been enjoying using, I just wish you can remove the button control on the radio that way i can mix it with the control only widget

BAD APP. first it played the wrong song for a very long time. even when i clicked on the thing like i usually do, it continues to say i was still listening to taylor swift when i wasn’t. i uninstalled the app and got it back and it fixed my issue. now it’s not switching back to the vinyl. it has the album but i want the spinning record. i’ve switched to it in the app, restarted my phone, uninstalled the app, tried everything but it still wont show the vinyl. i payed three bucks for this app and i may have wasted my money. fix this!

Requires an Apple Music subscription?. That is absurd. I don’t under stand why it’s required. I use the Apple Music app on my phone with my purchased music. I don’t want to “borrow” music. I downloaded the app because I wanted the vinyl widget. It looked cute so I even paid to unlock it. It did say something about subscribing to Apple Music but since the song that was currently playing showed up I didn’t think it mattered. Unfortunately when I went to put the widget on my home screen it said I needed a subscription to use it. That’s ridiculous

Vibe Widget aesthetic but slow :(. I'm giving 3.5-4ish because I love this widget on my screen, although I use the vibe more than the vinyl because the vinyl has a set maximum number of songs. The only thing about the vibe widget is that it's not up to date to the songs I'm currently playing unless I actually click into the app. So it's always stuck on one song when I've been listening to a whole playlist. Hopefully that can be fixed because otherwise it's a great app!

I love it, just wish premium had more options. i bought premium because i love this app, but i wish it had more than just unlimited songs, such as changing the vinyl color or an option to hear the record spinning a little throughout the song

This app is amazing! I’ve never seen an animated widget before. As the title says, this app is awesome. I’ve never seen an animated widget before. The vinyl spins and there’s even an option to play the little sound that vinyls make when you start the music. I only wish that within the app there was a large player screen with the vinyl and music controls. I also wish this was available on M1 Mac!!! I’d love to have this widget on Mac too.

I love it! One point of feedback though!. I love this app, it’s such a creative idea. the only thing i noticed is that when you control the music from the widget itself the widget jumps and stutters to play the pause or unpause animation. this may be a limitation of the operating system, but if it can get fixed it would look so nice!!

Love!! just a few notes for the creators. I love this widget and found premium to be worth it to me! I have it on my ipad and phone. The only thing is sometimes i cannot get the app to update to what is currently playing. Usually if i restart my device or something i can eventually get it to catch up, but it’s a little annoying sometimes. BUT i love the graphics sm and i would really love to see y’all put out like a full screen option! Sort of like a screen saver, like you’ve added to the new ios17 StandBy mode. I would really like to while i’m studying or something have my currently playing pulled up with your lovely graphics. Just thought it was something that could be cool :)

I LOVE THE RADIO WIDGET BUT... the radio widget that they added is really cute on my homescreen but the only thing is that you need the app to always be open for the widget to actually monitor what you’re listening to. Please add this if you can because I have another music widget and I dont have the same problem. But its super cute otherwise!

Awesome. However…. Digital media is compressed, meaning that information stored is compressed. Music as well. I’m wondering if in converting digital to vinyl, the music is still compressed. If this is true it will effect the way the music sounds. Therefore we are listening to compressed music converted to vinyl…why convert? Is your algorithm aware of this ? Otherwise, it would just add a “vinyl sound” to the actual track?. Is this the case?

amazing! some ideas..... i would LOVE to see a "vinyl wall" widget where you can click the album/playlist and then it would start playing.. just some ideas. also i agree with the others, music control/full screen app would be amazing! so much love for this company ! i just purchased full version and i am so happy :))

Needs Performance Improvement. I have the paid version, and this app is still not up to par with what I expected. I have to constantly open and close the app the keep it refreshed and synced with the music I’m listening to. It also constantly bugs and won’t show what you’re listening to at all. Great idea, Great design. But performance is extremely lacking and disappointing.

Love it! Just wish the app could keep up with my music. Absolutely worth the single payment to get unlimited. I’ve had it for over a year now and I love being able to skip my songs or like a song through it and seeing the little vinyl spin (or seeing the cool walkman buttons). Just wish the app could actively keep up with my music without being in the background, but i think with the (possible) interactive widgets coming with iOS17 we might get to that.

Awesome App. Only $3 for lifetime access. You can choose between three different styles and can change the setting to have the widget open your music player. 10/10 would recommend.

Great!!! But….. The widget is amazing, it’s just a little something to have, I find it very worth it but… Even tho the song covers are by default and it’s what I chose, the covers are sometimes never my favorite, more importantly the background, the blurry part, it looks nice sometimes and compliments my Home Screen/wallpaper but sometimes it doesn’t, (my Home Screen is many low tones, and when a bright cover plays it looks so weird) it’d be nice if there was an option to change background to a single color or any custom background of the widget!!! Like a wood or vintage vinyl player would, or a picture of something i took.

Love the app! But would love some added features.. Everything works great. But would love a feature where the background that is normally a blurred version of the album cover could be changed to be transparent. Some apps do it by uploading a photo of your Home Screen. I think this would be a nice edition.

Cute concept but. I think it's so cute and cool wish we could have it as the main lockscreen / control center music control but one day lol but I paid for premium and like it BUT one thing that is bothering me and kinda killing the vibe and excitement is that when I click the controls on the widgets it like goes into the peek and pop 3D Touch mode and it's annoying.

Play it please. I just tried out and liked it a lot. I miss the record sound the little dribbles sound it makes between tracks and at the beginning when you put the needle down on the record sound.

Pretty great widget. I love how it looks in the home screen of my IPad, only thing is that when you click on the controller in the widget itself. Everytime you click it, the widget kinda stretch’s out, like it is trying trying to open up. Also if i play music & start the music in the Apple Music app, the widget does not recognize that im playing music, until i click to open the widget.

Cute but doesn’t update song too well. I thought it was free but I ended up paying like $3 which honestly isn’t bad I’m cool with it and the customizations are pretty cute and it looks nice on the Home Screen <333 but I wish it was a little faster at updating what song you’re currently listening to! The widget isn’t all that fast and it’ll show “now playing” for a song I was listening to like 5 minutes ago when in reality a whole different one is playing hehe

it’s cute but…. it’s cute and honestly a cool app but i wish you didn’t have a set amount of songs. now i understand that the unlimited isn’t that much however i think it would be cool if we had unlimited but to do more customization to the things on the app like the vinyl that would cost money. i usually listen to music every night and i hate that when i listen to the music it’s going to waste my songs. i would buy the unlimited, however my icloud account isn’t connected to my card. so, my only problem is the fact that i have a set amount and can’t really change it, and i think it would be cool to add some customization to the app like changing the color of the vinyl. Thanks for the cool app!

very cool but…. i got this widget because a friend told me. it’s one of the coolest widgets i have. sure it glitches from time to time, but it’s a beautiful and cool widget that completes my home screen. it was only today where THAT message appeared on the app. When you play 100 songs using the widget, it stops displaying on your home screen. It then asks you to pay 3 dollars for it to work again. 3 dollars isn’t much, but i was kinda bummed out that you had to pay. So i’m short? This app is ok, but you can only really use it for a short time. That’s it!

Love the concept but there’s just a little bug. The whole idea is great and I made a home screen page just with the big square widget and then the one with just the control buttons. There’s just this weird bug that when you press one of the buttons on the controls, it does something like it begins to open the app but then cancels and it looks bad and just ruins the whole experience. If this bug was fixed on the widgets, i’d give 5stars because i just love the custom music player idea. All you have to do is make the buttons on the widgets press normally like any other music control widget.

Dope but glitchy. The app was working perfect at first and I bought the premium version. But then the widget would not switch to the next song I was playing unless I clicked on the app itself. The widget will only change songs if I go into the app which is kind of a bummer.

Little glitchy but great!. It is a little slow for me to change when my songs change especially if my music was paused for a while. I honestly find this so worth it though, it’s little things like this that is really fun to have and makes me a little happier.

Great idea, poor execution. It lags whenever songs change, meaning it still shows the previous song. And when you try to press any buttons on the widget it appears to restart the app almost and just looks clunky. They also don’t really have the best widget styles imo. This widget could have been made with more thought and care for sure… it’s not really a complicated concept that couldn’t be proofed before final launch

Half baked…. Looks great, barley works. App is NOT FREE! You need premium to even use the widget! Very janky due to iOS widget limitations. Don’t feel like paying money is worth it considering is doesn’t function very well. Does not read the current playing song very well. “You have to open the app for it to update!”..okay? So what’s the point of this at all then? Why would I open this app every single time a new song plays just so I can briefly look at its widget?

It’s not very great... I got the app and immediately added the widget to my home screen. I listen to music a lot, so I thought it was such a cute touch. After listening to music for a while the widget stopped working because there is a 100 song limit before you have to purchase the premium upgrade for the widget to keep working. Then it just became useless and I was pretty disappointed because it wad such a great touch that I now had to pay for to work.

Dunno why people are complaining. Honestly I love the look of it on my phone and I think less that $2 as a one time payment is a great deal. Loving this widget❤️

md record player. i would like this app better if you could have an unlimited amount of songs to use though.

Fantastic App. Unique and it is a vibe

Best. Love it

you have to pay for it. useless unless u pay

I paid yet it doesn’t work. I paid for premium, yet it does not connect to my music, and before I’d need to open it separately to make it keep up with my Spotify. Now it doesn’t work at all. Waste of money.

Slay all day. Nice looking good for ur wallpaper #slay #im so cool

it worked fine until I got premium. the widget worked great but when I payed for premium it stopped working properly. the vinyl doesn't switch with the music and sometimes doesn't spin even when music is playing

Nice app. The widget is creative and all of the variations look really nice. I’ve found that the app can lag a bit which is a little bit of an inconvenience though.

Limited songs. You only have a limited amount of songs to be used unless you pay for premium

Spotifyconnect issues. It works pretty well but there are issues when I connect to a Bluetooth device through Spotifyconnect. When I try to sync the app with Spotify, it stops the music and starts playing it on the phone rather than on the connected device.

Such a creative app. I saw this on TikTok and I listen to music almost all day every day so knew I had to get it! It’s so cute and I paid $4.49 AUS to have unlimited songs for life (which I was willing to pay bc it’s a small price for a little thing to bring me happiness) So far no bugs. Also love that you can see how many songs you’ve listened to since downloading the app and syncing your music - I’ve put a reminder in my phone to check back in a year to see how many songs I’ve listened to!

Good. Very cute very good

Alright. Okay, straight to the point: It’s a cute app and customisable if you pay a one-time fee, which isn’t TOO expensive. Similar to how shortcuts on apple worked before it got better: laggy, widget interface not smooth running, open background apps. Please fix these criticisms.

Not in Sync with Spotify. Every time a new song plays it doesn’t update, so i’m left looking at the previous song until i click on the widget manually. Super frustrating, waste of $5

App doesn’t work. it shows the wrong song or the previously played song, also dumb how you gotta pay money after you’ve listened to 100 songs, cool idea bad execution.

Delayed song change. Overall the app is really cool for only $4.50 however when I change the song on Spotify the vinyl won’t change unless I open the app, please fix that 🙏

love it. im legit in love w this app

pretty good. pretty good

Cool. It’s pretty cool app, I paid for premium and it was 100% worth it!!

Yes. So good love it

GREAT!!!!!!. I love this app. The widget is cute on the Home Screen and adds so much. However there are some things that can make the app better. 1. When going on the widget, removing the “tips for this widget” and “you’re premium”. These makes the app look very unorganised where the listener just wants to play their songs and not want to read the tips. Of course, its important to have this feature when first downloading the app, but not a necessity. 2. I wish when tapping the widget, the song was full screen where you could skip and replay songs. It’s unnecessary when it asks “Do you want to open spotify?” when I do!!!! Other than that, the app has such a great concept and I love it. Thank you for reading bae 😘😘

Worth it. It is a really good app and made my phone much more fresh and cool. Love the aesthetics of the widget design - would love to see more variations and perhaps some customisability. It is a really good app, but I think it would be really cool if you could add the widget to Lock Screen as I think it would look really cool on my phone. Thank you!

Automatically. this app is pretty good !! it’s just that it doesn’t automatically change the song, please fix this !!

paying. why do we have to pay for songs??? its useless. you only get to play 100 songs and then u ahve to pay abt 5 dollars to get unlimited. just no

It doesn’t work. When I downloaded the app it told me to connect it to my music app so I pressed the button and then brought me to settings but I couldn’t connect it to Apple Music so now I’m just stuck on that page and I don’t have the widget I opened AppStore and saw there was an update so I updated it but it still doesn’t work I have searched for tutorials but I still don’t understand can someone please help me

One of the coolest mp3 players. Looks amazing on the home screen ! Gives off some retro vibes ❤️

Slightly out of sync. I don’t believe the cost for premium is as bad as a lot of these reviews would make you believe as the price is roughly only $3 for a one time purchase. but I do notice that the app can be a slight bit out of sync when starting and stopping songs but that may just be the case for my phone because it’s only a 7+ but over all this is more of an app for aesthetics and not something I would take to seriously.

👍🏽. been looking for an app like this and premium is definitely worth it.

Get now. Get and premium is worth it 102820103729%

this app is cool,. so cool

Soundcloud. I love this app and i love the premium feature even more but the only complaint i have for this app is that it doesnt connect to soundcloud however spotify works fine. Highly recommend this app to make your phone layout look cool!

Would recommend. I love this app but it's not free exept for one but that one widget is really cute

great app. looks great with all my widgets, super aesthetic and matches my vibe.. i’m a record collector so i really love this widget! i understand why people don’t like the 2 dollar payment but it’s only once so i find it reasonable for the functions it provides. so far no complaints, i just wish it worked when i was playing music on my speaker or laptop with the spotify account.

Premium??. only get to play 100 songs before paying

Perfect. I love this sm much especially the radio one🥰😍

Johnny bobby brown. Yes

Can’t use it. You cant even use widgets without paying for premium.

Widget doesn’t update. They expect you to pay for widgets that don’t work. On the website they state that “you must tap on the widget EVERYTIME a new song plays”. and after all that there so broke they used a free website builder to make their site. I could replicate this app better myself and that’s coming from a 14 year old kid.

Haven’t even gotten to use it. I’ve shared the app 10 times and refreshed it but i can’t unlock the widget.

Widget. This is an awesome Widgetsmith it is very creative and is easy to set up

The vinyl widget is not in sync. Whatever song I am playing on spotify does not keep track with whats playing and I always have to click it to keep track

Would love it. I love the vinyl widgets and paid for the premium (it’s not that much tbh) but it doesn’t work properly. As of right now, I’m on iOS17.2 and it doesn’t actually change songs in the background as music is playing on Spotify (you have to manually click to to try to get it to refresh). I wish they would fix this cause then it would be 5 stars no questions

Good app but sometimes doesn’t sync in time. At times the song is not syncing to the app unless u open it.

I AM IN LOVE. This app is so aesthetic its amazing

gud. changes kinda late but it works well i don’t know why people are complaining so much, it doesn’t cost too much and looks great :D

Don’t buy. Doesn’t work

meh. Have to open it every once in a while to refresh so it’ll show current song but works fine it’s kinda cool

ugly n useless app, doesn’t even work really. what the title said. you have to pay for widgets, waste of my $10

3/10. Have to click every time on the widget when a music finish if you want the right song on the vynil !

Review. Why premium???????

Widget Use. I payed for the premium and the app doesn’t update what song I’m listening to. Purchase not worth it, I prefer the Spotify Widget.

idiots. wow. i got this app so i could have a swag vinyl on my home screen. but they just changed it to where i have to PAY TO GET THE WIDGET. WHICH IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE APP. VINYL IS IN THE NAME.

false advertising.. how the hell r u gonna make me go PREMIUM FOR THE VINYL. that is so… unreal.

made me pay for it and. and it’s not even worth the money, sure it’s cute but it’s really glitchy. the songs don’t switch on time and you can’t access spotify from the widget. like skipping and replaying a song the mechanics are super bad it’s so slow and it opens up the widget to do it

Cool app. It doesn’t work unless you open the app every time you start playing music and the buttons don’t work as they just open the app too. Looks cool though

help. i have premium why can't i switch the widget from vibe to vinyl?

Do NOT buy please. the widget options are really cool but it jitters when you press the skip, pause, and replay button but you can turn the buttons off, and the only other issue which i hate a lot is you have to have the app open in order for the widget to update what songs your playing if the app is swiped out and not open then it wont update at all which really sucks. UPDATED REVIEW : 👎 HI i’m back to give a worse review It bugged the hell out of spotify even when the Md Vinyl app is closed i can’t load artist profiles i have to restart my phone again now. This happened because the widget was frozen and i kept trying to fix it. Terrible app mad i wasted my money 👎👎

👍. Overall a very great app, I love how it’s animated on the screen as well, but it has difficulty refreshing and continues to display a singular soundtrack.

whhdhehdhfhhwd. accidentally deleted the app and it’s making me pay again

Ugh 🥲. Cool app but does a weird animation wish i was told before purchasing it

So cute!!. Can you make it so I can have a transparent background?? I’d like to have it match my Home Screen please!!

this is dumb. why pay for a vinyl widget make it free

Amazon. Doesn’t work with Amazon music, no good for me

Love. I love u

Makes you pay for the whole reason you got the app. Charging 4$ for the main reason anyone gets the app like it’s called MD VINYL , why else would I download it if I didn’t want the widget?. Very dumb to me but other than that the app is good

I really wanted to like these widgets. The best part of this app is that the widgets are beautifully designed and look great on your Home Screen. FYI these are all PAID features. Don’t get this app if you aren’t willing to spend 3.99. Unfortunately the app is very poorly coded. Widgets should seamlessly work in the background to provide you with a visually appealing icon for your Home Screen. Let me tell you what you will get with this widget: When you play a song. The widget will still show the song as paused, until you tap the widget, then it updates and the record starts to spin. Did you change to a new album? The widget will still show the album art for the old album, again, until you tap on it to update it. I don’t want to have to tap on the widget every single time just to see my current music. It’s now a chore instead of something that looks nice. (Yes I have background app refresh turned on) Looking at other reviews going back a few months, others have complained about this, and the developer has been saying its limitations with iOS 16. Well as of the time of this review I am on iOS 17.0.3 and this is still an issue 🤷‍♂️ Also, when you play and pause a song, it has this ugly choppy animation while the app executes the command. I’m sure there exists a way to code it such that the play and pause and skip can be pressed without opening your own app, then connecting to Spotify, then executing the command, it really just looks unprofessional and takes away from the premium feel of the widget. In order to justify the 3.99 price tag of premium which I unfortunately had to refund I would reccomend improving the widget such that it automatically starts to play or pause or whatever on its own, without the user having to physically tap on it. And try to have the pause button etc. just be pressed and that’s it, no ugly unintentional choppy flicker-y animation. I’m not a programmer so I can’t speak on the difficulty of achieving that but all I know is that other widgets don’t experience this issue. Until these issues are fixed I can’t recommend this app.

Doesn't work. The music doesn't change properly

Its fine…. The widget is cool but i really wanted the vinyl on my screen not just the song cover. It still works though, so i guess its a W.

Bad. You have to pay for it

Exactly What I Wanted!. Easy to use and connect with Spotify/Apple Music. Creates shareable graphics that are useful for social media or sharing music with friends. Widgets available for your Home Screen. Worth the money for me, 100%.

This is a paid app! Not free.. There is allegedly a free widget that is unlocked via sharing the app, but despite sharing this app 5 times! I have yet to unlock the feature. This app should be considered paid because you cannot access any features without subscribing.

SO CUTE. very cute widgets. just wish there wasn’t premium.

so cute. super unique and cute. premium is def worth it and it’s on sale right now so get it now!

WoW. C’est génial.

um. very cool and cute but whenever the song changes it doesn't show until you open the app again lol

Doesn’t work. Prompts to connect to Spotify, opens my Spotify app and then it just keeps loading and says “connecting”, followed by “connection timed out please try again later”

★★★★★. ✩✩✩✩✩

The coolest app ever. I recently got a $10 gift card for the App Store, and knew exactly what I’m spending it on, this app is so cool

Nothing Works. I installed this and nothing works. I press the controls and nothing happens. I press play and nothing happens. I paid for the premium version and I was able to set it up fine, but when trying to use it, it does nothing

Don’t. You will have to pay for the vinyl. The only free part is basically what you get with your phone for music widgets. Maybe it would be nice if it actually did the one thing it says it would do for free

False. Says you can watch an ad once for lifetime free use but doesn’t work

cute app but... i wish soon we can connect md vinyl to youtube music as well ):

literally no reason for a subscription. I hate the point of having a subscription for this. Its a widget make it free to use bruh

I hate this. Bro. What the hell- how do I use this?? do you expect me to use premium?!?

it’s alright. it looks so cool! until i realized you only get to play 100 songs before you have to pay..

You need to be on the app. Whenever I play a song in Spotify it works but when another song comes on I gotta open the widget app for it to update. It’s pretty annoying I thought it would update automatically.

Doesn't connect to spotify. It doesn't not connect to spotify and it says authorization is not approved. I paid for premium and this happened.

Have to click on the widget for it to update. Great widget but when I play the next song it doesn’t update unless I click on the widget then it updates. I’ve done what you said to the other person who had this same issue.

no point. make it free . use vinyl widget it actually works with Spotify without premium

Barely works. Don’t waste your money on a spinning widget that never updates to what you’re listening to. To even get the widget to show the song you’re listening to, you have to open the app once again for it to update, even if it’s already open in the background.

Why not free???. At first I thought this app was cute and expected it to be free. The main reason was to put it on my iPad Home Screen as a widget but they asked me to pay for it. I understand you but that’s just wrong. They never tell u to pay until u download the app so that was lowkey a scam. I recommend using other apps thank you.

Don’t call an app free when the only aspect you use to market it is behind a paywall.. I was fine with not being able to use the widgets, since I’m too lazy to use them, but after 30 seconds of listening IN THE APP it gives you a pop up to buy their premium that you can’t close. I wouldn’t care if it let you close the ad, but no. If you don’t have $2.00 to spare, don’t download the app.

Love it but-. I wish I could pick a color scheme! My homescreen is red and I change it constantly! So I want to suggest a update. You should make a color wheel on changing the colors of the widget! I would love to see the update<33

Really nice. This new retro tape recorder look is amazing. It would be super cool if we could add it to our lock screen tho! Love it good work can’t wait for future updates. Worth the money.

Love the widget but wish app offered a full screen. The widget works well. It I wish I can have the widget blown up to fit the whole screen so I could have that open while my music is playing

Great app but just one problem!. I would really love for this app to change the music that i’m listening to, without having to open the app itself to change it.

So good. I would recommend this it’s doesn’t matter on how many days you get the free trial but on how many songs you play I think it really good

Suggestion!. Personally I own both applications this app uses but I mostly use Musi to listen to song. I would love if Musi was an option on here! Please think about adding it ASAP!! :))

Great app y2k app. This app is like really nicee but, sometimes the songs don’t actually update themselves on the widget. I have to go into it and refresh it myself which can be annoying sometimes. Other then that it’s pretty cool :)

I love it. Definitely worth the download and worth 2$ it’s very aesthetically pleasing. Only thing I would recommend is maybe adding customizing feature? Idk just would make the 2$ EVEN more worthwhile

Greedy.. I have had this app for over a year. And after the new update, I cannot use the SAME features I had JUST yesterday m. Another example of greedy capitalism. It’s beyond ridiculous to take features AWAY from people. Don’t even bother downloading the app if you don’t want to pay to simply use a widget. Deleted off my phone after two years.

Cool Widget……. I love this widget, it’s neat. Just a few minor details I don’t like. You have to keep the app open in order for the little vinyl to spin (which is okay but it kind of bugs me). And there’s still some minor glitches as the vinyl stops spinning sometimes. Overall, a fun and cute idea!!

By. It’s a good app it’s also free. The reason I got it is because it looks cool on my home screen. If you are looking for something like this I will highly recommend.

Good app really nice to watch. Slow at updating even with the premium feature I hate that you can’t just get unlimited off the bat but is wtv we all gotta make money someday

Need more customization features!. Very cute and well coded app, but I wish I could make my Vinyl player the color pink! It’s my favorite color ever, and this is such a good app. Please consider adding more customization features and colors.

The looks are so sick. So if your wondering what this is for it’s basically for showing what song you are playing and it looks very cool on the your screen and it’s only 2 bucks for lifetime. Cool app.

Update is 🔥🔥. I havent used this app in a while but honestly the update is amazing, i love how it changed the app to where i can go forward in the disk or go back, i love the new customization for the widgets, love the app 🔊🗣️

Eh 😐. this app looks great and all but the issues i have with it are that after a while the vinyl will just stop even if the app is open, it’ll just pause and i have to click on the widget for it to resume. my other issue with it is that i have to actually open the app for it to work, its annoying.

Love the widget but... Wish the track would update when you switch it to another one. I just tap it and it switches but that’s just a little annoyance. Love the widget otherwise.

Cute App. Really like it, I bought the unlimited, pretty cheap for forever usage. I would love for them to make this an app on Apple car play! That would make it 10 times cooler!!

So cute !. I got this app a while ago, and eventually paid for the premium version… it was 100% worth it! It’s so cute and every time I play music I see the little vinyl spinning. I recommend!! 🫶

Kinda glitchy. I like the vinyl player but some more customization options would be nice. But right now, my only real complaint is that the player doesn’t refresh properly with every song. The album artwork display stays the same, regardless of how many songs pass

Really?. So I saw people review the widget saying having a vinyl on the home screen looked cool and this app would give me just that for free however the actual vinyl is locked behind a pay wall making the app nearly useless unless you like to just see the album cover.

Cool but not worth it. As other reviews have said, its super cool that this widget is animated, however, I wish it worked better. unfortunately the widget doesn’t work half of the time. this would normally be a relatively minor issue, but considering you have to pay for unlimited use of the widget… i cant justify spending any money on something that glitches that frequently, even if its just $2.

Paid for a pro version, still bugging.. Paid and unlocked all the features, but it drives me crazy how it’s bugging. And I mean when you click the widget - the play/pause or skip/next button - it would like open the app and close the app visually in 500ms. It’s under 1s but still very much visible and it’s annoying! Why is it like that? It’s awful. Fix that, and I will increase the rating. Or gimme my $ back. I’m not paying for bugs.

Awesome. I’m a big vinyl nerd and getting to see my music on my phone spinning in the home screen is dope. Simple little app but i love it, no issues yet. Took a little but for my phone to realize it was a widget but once it started working it’s awesome.

Dope widget, some glitches though. When it works its really cool. That said, it has some glitches with the buttons and loading the app. Nothing that can’t be worked out in the future. Almost a 5/5.

HELP. I can’t interact with the widget, Seems you have to open the app and only certain widgets can do this, On apple event they said you can interact with widgets but only showed apples apps widgets like weather. I hope i can get feedback, if this launch app to change music is their only option to widgets.

Frustrated doses’t update song on vinyl. When the vinyl widget is displayed alone the songs DO NOT UPDATE……. it is quit irritating trying to work and having to open the entire app each song to get the widget to show the current song being played. Yes I followed the instructions and trouble shot it, still the same result. This is why I gave it such a low rating I didn’t pay to watch the same song rotating for hours. 😑

Doesnt update automatically. The widgets dont update automatically and i looked everywhere to see if there was an option to enable it, but there was none. Only updates when i open the app Otherwise, it works well

Doesn’t change on its own. Very cute i love this widget! Only is that in order to have the widget change the song you actually actually to click it instead of the widget changing when the song changes:(

Its great but…. Honestly its cute and all i just wish you can listen to unlimited song without having to pay for premium. Other than that i think its awesome and can really make your device pop.

Cool app but... It’s a nice widget to have, just half of the time the songs don’t load, so I have to open the app itself and update the song myself. Now it’s stuck on some song that I played a day ago and it won’t refresh, feels like a waste of money.

Vinyl widget. This widget is superrr cute and is not confusing in the slightest to work lol. You do have to pay $2 to get to be able to play more than 100 songs, but I don’t mind

My thoughts. I’m gonna be honest I saw this on tik tok and thought I would have to pay a subscription which is offered in the beginning but you don’t HAVE to which is great cause it makes a nice addition to my Home Screen

Good in theory. Even the free version is cute and I like how it looks and how the colors moves around. The problem is it doesn’t sync up with your music unless you click on the widget to open it and then it refreshes to the current song. This is really annoying and basically defeats the purpose of the widget in the first place imo

Just Yes. I really rock with this app. The widget ads such a nice touch to your home screen. You only get 100 songs free so I figured I’d just use the 100 and then delete the app, but I ended up liking it so much I just payed the $3 for lifetime access lol.

Artwork doesn’t advance with song. Nice player, but artwork does not advance with the song. Basically if you want to see the artwork for the currently playing song you have to open the app every time. Also when attempting to play next song in the widget, the entire widget expands and flashes. Not smooth at all. Seems very buggy. Useless and a waste of money because of these issues.

I love it. I love it so much it makes my device look better and I love how they added a radio look now it fit my device so much better now thanks for making this app

Great idea, never works. The buttons on the widget dont skip, pause etc, the vinyl doesnt spin, the song doesn’t update??😭 worst part is i paid for premium so i just paid for an image widget basically

At times glitchy. 5/5... When it works. For the most part it's very cool, but a lot of the time i'll skip the song or it'll change but the vinyl widget won't update unless I open the app manually. I followed the tips and it still won't work properly, I bought the premium as well. Any fixes?

Great app. Works great, looks great. Definitely recommend trying it! I do wish they would make it work when the app isn’t open in the background tho

Dope but glitchy. The app was working perfect at first and I bought the premium version. But then the widget would not switch to the next song I was playing unless I clicked on the app itself. The widget will only change songs if I go into the app which is kind of a bummer.

bruh. I’m not buying it, but it’s super cute. Don’t really recommend if you don’t wanna spend money like me but it’s really cute. I’m super bummed that I have to pay money. 10/10 tho

Little jump buggy. I love this widget and its the only thing I have put up on my Home Screen. The only thing that bugs me is it jumps/tries to open the app when you press the controls. If this was fixed this app would be a 10/10 across the board

Good. It’s a pretty cool little item to have and it doesn’t cost much. Improves aesthetics a lot. Nothing to complain about. The only thing that could be better is if the widget could be displayed on the Lock Screen.

I wish I could get my money back. The app worked before I paid money and a little bit after, but eventually it got stuck on one song and never showed any of the new music I played. I restarted the app, uninstalled and reinstalled it. Now it just doesn’t show any of the music I play at all. It’s stuck on the default “music”. I restarted my phone. Restarted the app. Everything. It doesn’t work. What a waste of money.

Great app but... I love the app but the Song Title & Artwork don’t change automatically with each passing song on both the Homescreen Widget & Standby. If that one thing can be adjusted with an update then the app would be perfect!

Slow to Update Song. I love the idea and simplicity of this widget. But it reallyyyyy needs to update the song that is displayed as soon as it changes. I shouldn’t have to wait a while or click on the widget for it to display what song is *actually* playing instead of what was playing 5 minutes ago.

Now I have to pay for basic features?!. Had this app for months and loved having it display my music on my home screen. Cannot believe that after updating it I now have to pay to get that feature…… it’s the whole point of the app!!! 0/5 stars don’t advertise it as an in-app purchase when that’s the whole reason I had it downloaded in the first place
