Mixtape Social Music

I like the audio introductions to the playlists made by the creators, it adds a personal touch

The idea is there, problem is I don’t know anyone that has this problem. Sure I want new playlists to listen to or for friends to make me playlists or I want to send mine to them, except Spotify already solves all of these issues. And as a negative critic of Apple Music, this app does not bode well for me. Overall could be a great app but isn’t

It was so fun picking a picture, songs, and making a title for my mixtape. The idea really is fun. The graphics or the look of it looks a little outdated, I don’t know if it is just my phone, but when I press the any button it’s slow. Or scrolling through the different mixtapes was a little rough. I guess what I’m trying to say is the swipe effects should be more smooth. This was very fun!!

I like the idea however I would prefer if the app looked at my music taste and provided mixtapes that cater to me. You should also make the mixtapes auto play when I scroll on them rather than having to hit play and open up another window. Lastly I think that they should play a preview and that shorter mixtapes be promoted, some of the long intros on these mixtapes make me lose attention and I get bored easily

I think this idea is super cool. I always wanna look for cool playlists and this is a great way to share and find playlists to listen to. The look of the app is a bit chaotic and the colors are a lot to handle but overall are really fun music app!

I don’t have Apple Music so I didn’t feel like it was an app I wanted. You could use it without Apple Music but I was a little bit confused about what it did. It seems cool, but just not really something I would interact with.

Fun concept! Reminds me of the 8tracks days. I have a minor point of feedback and a major point of feedback. 1. When you play a mixtape and scroll past it / browse other areas of the app, there is no music player on my screen to let me pause/skip/etc. I have to go all the way back to the original mixtape post in order to stop the music. It would be helpful to have one of those minimized music players thingies like they have on the bottom of the Spotify or Apple Music screen. 2. My major feedback/question is why the app is formatted like TikTok? TikTok is a platform designed for short-form content and is merciless in terms of its ability to skip anything that doesn’t immediately interest you. However, mixtapes are a longer-form medium that asks its users to linger a while to digest the content. Especially since the intent is to create a social platform, I would look for an analog in a platform or service that is better at retaining the attention of its users. A final thought, not as much feedback, is that scenario/aesthetic playlists are pretty trendy right now. You can find many playlists on YouTube that are titled things like “when you’re a princess stuck in a tower” or something like that lol. Mixtapes are a storytelling tool (and often paired with other media primarily visuals) so I think leaning into that aspect could be good.

I like the idea of making a mixtape and being able to share it. I think a way to make this really game changing is being able to use different apps besides Apple Music like for instance SoundCloud to add music that isn’t on some platforms can be all combined together.

I think this is a fantastic idea. A lot of people may be afraid to express themselves through music because of stigma surrounding certain types of music. This app allows you to create those special playlists and share it to the world for people to admire. I use Spotify so it was a little tricky for me to get the full experience but I love the concept!

I like the idea of it, just clean up the actual design to sleek and clean
