Review summary

User feedback praises Symphony for its smooth UI, versatility, and solid Last.fm scrobbling, making it feel like a strong Apple Music companion. However, stability is a recurring issue with multiple crashes and playback glitches. Additional concerns include missing queue/playlist management features and a paid barrier for Spotify playlist import, highlighting notable feature gaps alongside stability problems.

Pros

Smooth, user-friendly UI with easy navigation (Spotify-like).
High-quality, versatile app experience.
Strong scrobbling integration (Last.fm).

Cons

Frequent crashes and freezes across the app (opening, browsing, collections).
Playback glitches: songs skip/restart or play random tracks mid-playback.
Missing essential features: cannot add individual tracks to a queue and cannot add full albums to playlists.
Spotify playlist import is locked behind payment.

2026-05-16	at*****	I'm the classic "guy who never writes reviews" reviewer, dropping in to tell you that if you've found this app, you're probably dissatisfied with the experience the Apple Music app is giving you. If that's indeed the case, then you should give Symphony a shot. Short of listening to vinyl, this is about the best experience you're going to have listening with music. The stats are good, the interface makes sense, and there's just something about the interface that feels better than the standard music app. You're already here, and you've read this far, so cough up a few bucks and give it a shot.

2026-02-21	Du*****	This app is nice don’t get me wrong great for when you wanna scrobble but the fact that I can’t add albums or even add full albums to a playlist is. VERY disappointing

2026-01-16	aj*****	Decided to switch from Spotify to Apple after the price increase. The scrobbling integration is amazing as well as having a UI similar to Spotifys for easy navigation. I just wish the playlist importing from Spotify wasn’t locked behind payment

2025-09-30	yh*****	everytime i click a song from my playlist like 30 seconds into the song its going to glitch and restart the song (or play a completely random one) and it does that every time, and when the song is finished sometimes the app glitches and won’t let me play another song and i have to exit and pick one again (and deal with that glitch i mentioned in the beginning again)

2025-05-13	pr*****	I bought the app to get scobbling for Lastfm, but it keeps freezing while I’m browsing or crashing. There also seems to be a slight crossfade built into the player, despite having crossfade turned off.

2025-04-23	ji*****	Edit: new version of the app still did not fix the crashing in collections tab. The new update makes the app crash anytime you try and find songs in your collection!
