Microsoft Groove Reviews

Big improvement

Mattynomi4321

I love the new update. My biggest complaint is the fact that when the now playing screen comes on, it only shows the artist images for like half of the bands in my collection. It's more consistent on the Windows version. One more suggestion would be to be able to go to the artist bio from the now playing screen.

Great Improvement

As a subscriber to Groove on Windows 10, Xbox One, and previously Windows Phone. I was really let down with earlier builds for iOS. This update is so much better. Need to still add some features like cast so I can cast to my xbox one etc. Also "recently played" to go alone with recently added. Keep up the good work.

Big battery drain problem - otherwise 5 stars

Owen9821

Offline music listening on this app is the only thing that has ever made my iPhone SE physically hot to touch. Drains battery like crazy. Fix this and it's a 5 star app.

Steady improvement

Mansedan

New version is almost on par with Windows 10 version, as well as other music services. A few things it's missing is W10s "Your Groove" which features recent plays and recommended playlists. W10 also has a setting to hide all content related to the Groove Music Pass, which is great as I don't have one and therefore don't need to see those features. Otherwise the app is pretty good and hopefully will continue its upward trend.

Download errors

Shai114

Won't let me download any of my tracks for offline play. Says error each time.

Battery Drainage

Fun,But Confusing

It's a good music app that's makes good usage of OneDrive, but right now the newest update drains the battery of my iPhone 6 and it gets pretty hot. I don't know if this my problem or one with the app. I cannot full heartily recommend until this issue is fixed or I found a solution to the problem.

Please add an EQ setting

HannouHeiki

Now that you've added music scrubbing, all you have to do is add an EQ function and this will be the PERFECT music app.

Add GENRE view, support PLAYLISTS

Corvus.Corax.

Why was the ability to sort my music by genre removed in the last two updates? And why aren't my already existing OneDrive playlists recognized? Building playlists in the app is nearly impossible with a collection of any size.

Crashes on startup

Corlikowski

App won't open, crashes to home screen before the app loads on my iPhone 5C. Works fine on both of my iPads. Will update rating when crash is fixed.

Good app but.....

Needs to be updated to the windows 10 experience has missing features on iPhone that are on windows could be a great application. Well now that it has been updated only negative flaw is that when you long press a particular song the ability to show album to explore the artist isn't available. It's getting better I also like the whole artist pic on the now playing screen but since the latest update it now just shows generic pics of artist. Work in progress !!!
