User Reviews

Users praise the app for its vast classical catalog and library access via institutions, plus offline listening. However, the mobile experience is marred by repeated logouts, playback instability, a clunky UI with weak search and poor organization of saved items, missing Chromecast/AirPlay support, and occasional track-loading issues. The core catalog is compelling, but stability and usability problems significantly detract from the overall experience on iOS.
Pros
  • Extensive breadth and depth of the classical music catalog.
  • Access via public libraries and university accounts broadens availability.
  • Offline listening/download capability.
  • Strong music selection and database that supports discovery of old favorites and new treasures.
Cons
  • Frequent login timeouts and unexpected logouts.
  • Unreliable playback with crashes, random stops, and difficulty resuming after leaving the app.
  • Clunky mobile UI, weak search, and awkward organization of saved items (playlists vs favorites).
  • Missing streaming features like Chromecast/AirPlay support.
  • Content availability issues and sporadic loading/QA problems (tracks unavailable at times).

Are you afraid of people stealing money from your app? Login expires ridiculously fast. Cannot even finish a symphony

For classical music, it’s tough to beat the sheer breadth and depth of the Naxos Music Library. The app’s interface for browsing and listening is not on par with the best commercial apps, but it’s serviceable and has allowed me to find both old favorites and some new treasures in the classical realm. My biggest complaint is the app’s odd fixation on “playlists” (consisting of individual tracks) as the primary mechanism for saving and organizing pieces i want to listen to again later. While the app is excellent at highlighting new and featured albums, about the only way to save albums as albums for future listening is to designate them as “favorites.” This is a welcome feature, as far as it goes, but it puts all favorites in one long list (with newest selections at the top) and I would really like a way to organize my favorite albums under named (by me) categories, whether called playlists or themes or folders. I also wish the app could play back tracks from my favorites list randomly, turning my ever-expanding favorites list into my own personal classical station.
