User Reviews

DS Music earns praise for its clean UI, ongoing updates, and solid CarPlay integration, with users noting it’s better than the official Synology DS Music app. However, multiple reviews report recurring login/connection problems, playback instability (stuttering, rapid skipping, or silent tracks), and stability crashes when switching tracks. CarPlay remains feature-limited (no artist search, visibility issues in CarPlay settings). There are also missing features like APE/DSD handling, offline caching, WebDAV, and CarPlay lyric support. Overall, highly valued, but reliability and CarPlay feature gaps hinder a near-perfect experience.
Pros
  • Nice user interface with ongoing free updates
  • CarPlay integration shows albums and enhances usage
  • Better than the official Synology DS Music app
  • App is well-regarded and users are willing to support it
Cons
  • Login/connection reliability issues: can't log in or updates cause disconnects
  • Playback instability: songs skip, stutter, or play only a few seconds
  • CarPlay limitations: no artist search in CarPlay; app not consistently visible in CarPlay settings
  • Crashes when switching songs or during playback
  • Missing features: no APE/DSD support, offline caching, WebDAV, or CarPlay lyric display

I have no idea how Apple Store allows this kind of BS to be published. The greed apple carries despite being a multi-trillion dollar company is shameful. Don’t install this app.
