User Reviews

Taper's Section is praised for its extensive archive of live music, particularly jam bands, and features like favorites, notifications, and offline downloads. However, multiple users report playback glitches, outdated or missing metadata and recordings, offline mode limitations requiring internet for sign-in, inability to unfavorite artists, and inconsistent support responsiveness. Despite these issues, users appreciate the rich content and consider it a leading app for streaming live shows.

Pros

Huge archive of live music shows, especially jam bands like Grateful Dead and Phish.
Ability to favorite bands and shows, making it easy to access preferred content.
Notifications for new uploads on followed bands are helpful and appreciated.
Option to download shows for offline listening is valuable to users.
User-friendly interface for streaming and finding shows compared to competitors.

Cons

App has playback issues such as randomly pausing, skipping, or stopping mid-song needing app restarts.
Delays in updating show metadata and new recordings from the archive cause missing or outdated content.
Offline downloaded shows often require internet connection to sign in, rendering offline use ineffective.
Inability to unfavorite bands or shows once selected causes usability frustration.
Support is occasionally unresponsive or unhelpful regarding reported issues, leading to user dissatisfaction.

Recent reviews

I used to love this app but in the last year it started randomly but consistently pausing mid song and skipping ahead to another song in a show. I was initially in contact with tech support who was engaged at first but then stopped responding to my follow up emails. This is really disappointing as this was my Go To live show app and now I don't even try to use it anymore.

Love this app but playback stopped working for me yesterday (10/11/24). I cleared the cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, but nothing has gotten it working again. Hope this is just a bug that gets fixed soon because I love this app (Edited review to 5 Stars, the playback issues are due to a DDOS attack on Archive and not the fault of the app)
