Stack Radio APP - Great Music

This is the best app in the history of apps. It’s simple, well-designed, and (most importantly of all) plays excellent music. It kicks every other music app to. the. curb. Well done.

Best music app hands down! Last playlist went like this...Barry white, bijork, AC/DC, beastie boys, johnny cash, nick cave, then bob Marley! What?! 😍🦄

This is the coolest music app I have come across. No nonsense, simple and VERY cool design - and the music is incredible. Stack has curated an impossibly great collection of music. Rock, rap, folk, classical, heroes, should have beens, new, old, in between, everything. It's the music app for people who have no need for a music app because they love music, and they don't trust anyone to pick it for them. Trust them.. They know. I don't know how - but they know. Well done.

Great idea but the app doesn’t work. After logging in, 99% of the time it drops back to the login/new subscription page. The app hasn’t been updated for a couple of years and the app help link goes to an Insta page that also hasn’t been updated for a couple of years. Perhaps the developer has lost interest, although is happy to keep taking our subscriptions. No thanks.

Doesn’t recognise that I’ve paid. Good idea, awful execution.

A great concept. Like other reviewers I find the main music services overwhelming when I just want to listen to some great music without having to curate it for myself or suffer an AI picked playlist. Great. The app itself is quirky, and not entirely in a good way. It’s hard to get back to the now playing screen if you go anywhere else in the app. It seems impossible to stop/pause within the app (am I missing something?!) so have to use the iPhone control centre (mute is a strange option to have instead.) When using iPods the music blasts out of the phone when removing the headphones instead of stopping. Hardly a desired behaviour. I’ve not tried in the car yet. I’d like to subscribe… I’ll have to see whether these annoyances are worth putting up with. At least there is a free trial.

I love the music on this app. All hand selected, no ads. I hope it gets everyone gets the recognition for selected such wonderful music.

This is a good idea, although the classic selection is really disappointing unless you like the cheesier elements of Classic FM. A pity then that the app doesn’t recognise that I have paid my subscription and asks me to pay again. I won’t be renewing as a result.

I love the principle of Stack, and maybe it’s my phone (DOI dinosaur with iPhone 5plus running iOS 13), but it randomly seems to stop playing sometimes, and when it’s sulking like this, nothing I can do will coax it back. This is pretty irritating and a deal breaker 😞 Also, I can see no easy way to pause it - I have to switch screen off so that the control bar is there when I switch it back on. If you can tell me what I’m doing wrong, I’ll pay beyond my free trial!

The login form cannot be used on an iPhone SE - after fillong the form, the Enter button is obscured by the keyboard and cannot be tapped. Would have contacted support, but that's only on Instagram. Disappointed.
