## Qobuz Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***-- "A great music store; an okay streaming service; a bad app"
I’ve used Qobuz as a download store for many years. They’ve had the best catalog of non-DSD content for the past decade, and now they’ve added some DSD128 too! If you know what you want, they’re great. The Sublime subscription is great value if you buy a lot of content.

However, as a streaming service only, they leave a lot to be desired. Their playlists are terrible — the worst. So much so that they offer free subscriptions to services to import your Spotify (and other) playlists into Qobuz (which works well and is a good solution, but _another_ step). Their search function is really bad. And the app… it’s the worst of the lot.

It hangs. It caches music you’ve streamed, but then doesn’t let you play the cache when you’re offline; you have to explicitly download your music. It intermittently logs you out. It disconnects from AirPods. Occasionally it pauses music every time the Lock Screen locks — but most of the time it works fine.

Using Qobuz through Roon is so much better than using it natively. You also get better playlists and search. But this solution is limited away from home and a non-starter when offline.

A great music store; an okay streaming service; a bad app.

### **--- "So many bugs… shame!"
The sound quality is beautiful. However has some software or server issues. All the time “unavailable to stream track…”
Shame…
-- Zenember1, 2024-11-20

### ***** "Price"
Quality but around £20 per month is a little high unfortunately
-- HJuosart, 2024-11-09

### *---- "Logged me out for no reason"
Apart from it being slow at loading songs (not my signal as it’s the same on my high speed broadband) I also got logged out after only using the app for about 5 days and it would let me log back in.
When I finally managed to log back it it wanted me to pay £16.99 despite only being 5 days into my 1 month free trial.
-- WTID1867, 2024-11-07

### **--- "Frustrating"
Qobuz has to be one of the most frustrating music apps I use. Shuffle only available if you create a playlist first. Albums disappear then reappear so I end up with “unavailable” albums even though the same albums exist under a different ID. Tracks pause for no reason, despite a strong internet connection. 

If I wasn’t using Qobuz via Roon the service would be unusable. 

It’s such a shame as the sound quality is excellent. I’m hoping Qobuz will be bought out by a company that’s committed to providing an excellent customer experience over the “it’ll do” attitude that seems to the case now.

Finally, the cut and paste developer “responses” here demonstrate how little Qobuz value their customers.

Two stars for sound quality and a reasonable catalogue.
-- Murun64, 2024-11-07

### ***-- "No Siri"
The app is ok but not being able to ask Siri to play a given album while working or driving is a bid downer for me
-- JACS442, 2024-10-28

### ***** "Quality listening!"
I was a long term Spotify user, and was reasonably content with my lot. I then upgraded my turntable, and begun to find depths of music that I hadn’t heard before. Streaming the same music via Spotify now felt like listening with ear muffs on, like someone had poured treacle in my ears. The hifi dealer I bought the deck from recommended Qobuz, which he uses for his high-end installations, and I haven’t looked back. I’m loving the quality, the interface, the ‘sleeve notes’, the whole package. Now I only use Spotify for podcasts.
-- BeardyLong, 2024-10-12

### ***-- "Music quality Superb, app quality is not"
The features in the app are so dated. For example, I searched for top 40 UK singles and in brought up 2012 as the most current setlist. I personally don't think you need a magazine tab. The main reason I came to Qobuz was purely for music quality but everything else lacks for me. I gave previously subscribed to Apple Music and Spotify, these both have much better user interfaces.
-- -hendo-, 2024-10-08

### ***** "Solid product"
The interface is just what I want and minimal bloat, sound is unparalleled from most other apps.
-- Elpablochachi, 2024-09-29

### *---- "Great Sound - Appalling App"
Upgraded from 1* to 2* since my last review. A slight ‘tweak’ on a recent app upgrade, allows me to choose artists I’m ’following.’ 
My main gripe (and it’s mentioned on so many forums) why on earth did you remove the A-Z scroll bar from the right hand column of the app? 
Do your app designers actually use this app for their own music. Everything was great then in your quest to improve and continually tweak, you broke it. 
Try selecting a saved favourite artist towards the back of the alphabet, ZZ Top for example. 
You either have to scroll through hundreds of artists to get there or head to the search bar. 
Please, please return the A-Z scroll bar. 
As I’ve said, the music, the quality, the choice is tremendous. 
And before you recommend I contact you, I have done, numerous times
-- Hebdenite, 2024-09-25

### ***-- "Disastrous update"
5 stars for coverage and sound; 1 star for the app = 3 stars. The app was never the most intuitive but the recent update is a total mess. Everything is mixed together and you have to filter in order to get to a specific album/artist/playlist. I often navigate to albums by going through artists’ pages but this now requires at least one more tap. Accessing Qobuz through the Sonos app (speaking of disastrous updates…) is also a nightmare because an artist’s catalogue is an unordered list of albums, eps, singles…
-- Rotjeknor74, 2024-09-05

### *---- "Atrocious app with a good selection of music"
I’ve been using Qobuz since forever and the app has always been pretty feeble. It went through a phase of steady improvement where one could even imagine they bothered to test it. The new revamped app is diabolical though, clearly never tested properly and incredibly unstable. I hate to say it, but please release Spotify lossless and I’m outta here…
-- sbro99, 2024-09-01

### ***** "Great streaming program"
Pretty much all songs old and new in library, easy to find and importantly they are kept original not mucked about. Great sound quality perfect for audiophile listening.
-- GmaEjf1957, 2024-08-30

### **--- "App not great"
Sound quality is great but the issue with the app overshadows that

Music pausing
Laggy

But the worst is all your downloaded albums get deleted when you log out,which they make you do once every so ofter for security reasons

So frustrating
-- Bignallssss, 2024-08-30

### ***** "Love it!"
Perfect for audiophiles like me. Moved over seamlessly from Amazon Music HD. Beautiful rich interface and awesome sound! Well done Qobuz!

Ps the KJ West One playlist is in my opinion the best music selection ever if you love to hear your headphones sound the best. I have Grado’s btw 👌🎼
-- fscue, 2024-08-27

### ***** "The best"
the best streaming platform, the competition can only dream of the quality that Qobuz offers
-- Tomwarch, 2024-08-23

### ****- "Almost perfect"
A brilliant service with an extensive catalogue - not as extensive as Apple Music but the times I fail to find something here that I do then find in Apple Music, are becoming rarer.

Unlike Apple Music, my music streamer in my home stereo can stream Qobuz natively and play it back at full file size (Apple offers files straight from their servers at high resolution and with high bit depth, but it’s a “closed” software environment so I have to stream it to a phone or iPad first and then use Apple AirPlay to bounce it to the stereo (and Airplay then compresses the high resolution file into a “zipped-up” AAC file so you lose the sound advantage of the original “Full-Fat” file you get in the first place. What’s the point Apple..??) Qobuz goes straight to the Streaming Player without involving my phone, sounds glorious & works so simply.

Given that I stick with Qobuz, treating it as my Luxury/Premium option for this win/win combination of simple operation & great sound quality, I wish it had more of the Super Premium functionality of a system like Roon; song lyrics as an option, cover art, additional visuals, all the tendril-like links that Roon offers that can have you following your nose joyously down musical rabbit-holes you weren’t previously aware of. All those elements bring digital music back to (at least a part of) the ceremony & joy I grew up with when I’d pore over the entirety of a 12inch LP while the music played.

If Apple Music ever relents and offers native device streaming then it will become all I need but if Qobuz adds in these few extras to an already compelling service then you’ll have my loyalty nailed down unconditionally.👍
-- Herohirst, 2024-08-22

### *---- "What have they done to the app?"
Music quality and coverage was fine. The app since last update is borderline unusable for me - I no longer can see individual track without hunting for the grouping that is probably Album / Release. The old A-Z scroll to find track was fine, if a bit slow. Now it is unusable. If this is not addressed soon, they can say goodbye to another Sublime subscriber.
-- tic tac toc1981, 2024-08-15

### ***-- "No albums after update?"
Hey Qobuz, I don’t want tracks and albums mixed together - at the very least please add a search filter for albums alongside the sort options in the new library for downloads, tracks, favourites etc, I can’t be the only one that misses the previous version of the mobile app. Sublime member for last 3 years.
-- Jimjam Sprocket, 2024-08-13

### *---- "Sound quality excellent, interface and view sorts now ruined and effectively unusable,"
Sounds great, navigation utterly useless
-- Bull.ed, 2024-08-09
