ecoute Was The Best but now needs lots of work – Ecoute Review

Avoid. Apple Music is now better than ecoute, not because it added features but because ecoute has not fixed bugs which piled up through iOS updates. ecoute is uncommunicative on these issues and it is not clear whether it is still being maintained. Ecoute was the only great alternative to Apple Music during the decade of disintegration of the iOS Apple Music app. Now, the Apple Music App is just barely good enough for the job and ecoute’s better features seldom function correctly. Sadly you need to start and stop the Apple Music app at times to keep ecoute working. Developer is non-communicative and there is no way to know if it is still under support, let alone active development. If ecoute returns to its former glory I will be the very first to restore it to five stars. Until then the free Apple Music app is a better alternative. Hopefully ecoute will address the bugs which I and others have reported but I doubt it with no developer response.
