EDIT: The app now randomly skips the remainder of your current track if you leave it paused too long--unusable. Great information, great quality, buggy as can be - worst issue is that the app often (nearly always) loses my place when paused, restarting a track and sometimes a whole piece. It would also be nice to be able to cast, though Bluetooth serves as a workable substitute, and the lack of downloading is unfortunate. But the pause issue is bafflingly stupid for such a simple function.

The Listening Guides and Editors Choice surpasses any streaming classical music site. The sound quality paired with Airpods have remarkable clarity. A lot of effort was put into this niche app and it came to fruition. Nice job Apple!

Really like a dedicated classical app

I like the listening guides that came out a few months ago. The design is nice and editors choices are really helpful. I would really appreciate a few things be changed if possible. - can music that appears in classical be removed from the main Apple Music app? I like classical music kept seperate as all the auto playlists over in the main app get messed up with pop, electronic and classical. I don’t know anyone who wants to listen to 90s music mixed with Debussy… do you? - please change the classical icon to a different colour. I tap on the wrong one sometimes,.

Loving it so far!!!

Love the accompanying guide… whether or not it has been generated by AI doesn’t matter as long as it is a faithful guide.

Love it

I’ve been using it for 10 seconds and am already amazed by how it sorts and searches for classical music. Classical recordings were tedious and annoying to find when I used spotify, but this app has skilfully fixed the common issues I had.

Confusing

Very hard to navigate. Not intuitive. Busy and messy. Glitchy. Copy Spotify, it just works
