Vinyls

I understand that one-off payments for apps are really never a one-off and that to maintain etc there needs to be monetary value. I’ve no problem if the app is updated new features etc and importantly upfront and open about it. But another app that was a paid upfront and then decides it wants more money so therefore everything locked, that was previously open, until new subscription taken out. I decided to give this another go after reading that the developer is letting go of his apps and restarting on another venture, again. Seems to be a pattern here with this developer and his apps when they become less profitable. All upgrades stop, or minimal, then subscriptions get put in and all without letting people know. It’s a shame as I liked this app albeit I have not used in a while but still I didn’t expect to have to subscribe without warning to something I already paid for. Definitely would not trust this developer again. Shame.

New review so the dev response isn’t for this. But I’ve come to use the app that was previously about £5 to find that all functionality has been removed from me and it wants me to buy a subscription. The restore purchase button does nothing. Now it’s useless.

Looks nice enough but I was hoping to use it on TV. It might be more honest to stop offering it if it’s never going to work.

Although I liked the idea of the app - basically an animated skin for Apple Music, it didn’t work on my iPhone 14 Pro Max very well at all. If the first tune even played, subsequent ones wouldn’t, and the app was launching Apple Music in the background and neither were actually playing the song. The turntable would get stuck partially showing at the top of the screen and I couldn’t drag it back down, or it would scroll to the right, or the record wouldn’t spin or the player arm wouldn’t sit above the record. There were so many bugs, I gave up using the app after a handful of unsuccessful attempts. I wasn’t a fan of the fact that there wasn’t even a free trial period either - although it was free to download, you had to start a subscription or buy it outright for £29.99 straightaway to even try it out. There are a number of DJing apps that offer similar features but also allow you to load 2 turntables and mix between them. I realise this app isn’t trying to be like them, but it made me want to use them again. On a positive note, I loved the ‘Identify Tune’ feature, but the fact I couldn’t even play 2 songs in a row meant I gave up and got a refund. Sorry.

This app is visually amazing and an incredible option for free but would be so much better with Spotify. Please add this Shibab!

Purchased this app on Mac with money few years ago and it used to do the job. Now it cannot function anymore because I need further purchase to access the function? So what’s the point of buying this app the first place? What a steal of money! Would request a refund or membership renewal because this is fraud and cannot be trusted.

Love the app on the iPhone not sure if I’m missing something on the AppleTV OS 15.2 though. Just says ‘Send music from the Vinyls app on your iOS device to get started’ which I’m guessing is Airplay but then I get no visuals.

Can you add Spotify please it would be a great addition!!

Well-designed app!

Saw this app on the new ios15 update in the UK.. paid my money but the app says pending and not working .. any idea why?
