Wolfgang's Music 12+

Love the music. App needs work.

Wolfgang’s Vault offers a large catalog of stellar musical performances. I’m a little disappointed that the app isn’t optimized for the iPhone X and that offline/downloaded content isn’t available.

Hi - we hope you saw the update we released a week later (3/26) - it included iPhone X optimization.

Cheers!

Great selection, impossible to navigate

This really shouldn’t need to be said but here we are: You need to find a way to make your library accessible to view in iOS. The “Browse” page is ridiculous with its 8 sort of randomly curated categories listing 15 performances/artists in each. Scrolling (horizontally!) through this puny cross section of your holdings is by no definition “browsing.” You have thousands of shows available. Thousands! You have a lot of rock a lot of funk a lot of everything, yet, under the “Rock” Browsing category you list the Average White Band, Desmond Decker, The Brothers Johnson: great acts one and all, none of which could even loosely be described as “Rock”. The Search function is even more useless. Users (Members, I mean) need to either specify or to guess what surprises you may or may not have stored on your servers, and failing that, we’re left to cross-reference from your website or our Sonos integration to find music. So please, spend a coupla bucks and list your titles alphabetically by artist, by year, by recently added, whatever. Just do something to make your titles easily accessible to view and take the laborious guesswork out of using this crappy and not exactly free (because $39 annually) app.

Make Daytrotter an App again!!!

Edit: Devs fixed issue and responded to my concerns. 10/10 would recommend!!

Note to Dev - sorry for the one star but I know Wolfgang and Daytrotter are connected.

Once the Daytrotter service was bought out by Paste it became horrible. The new website is terrible and filled with ads even for long time paying customers. The change was extremely disrespectful and anti-consumer just to squeeze what little ad revenue they could scrounge up. Eventually the wonderful Daytrotter App was forgotten and abandoned. You cant even download it anymore because Paste wants to funnel people through their crappy, ad filled website. The websites play back features don't work, they are overly clunky and poorly designed. Making accessing the content I pay for each year that much harder. Half the time the player just repeats the same song unless manually changed or simply stops playing. I still use the Daytrotter App but it will eventually not work with the next iOS update.

My passionate plea for Wolfgang Devs - please relay this message to someone who can bring back the Daytrotter App!

Good news, Mr. Bananafish. All of your issues are solved in this app: playback is robust and seamless, and you'll find all of the same content you get at Daytrotter, plus a whole lot more. Just sign in and use the handy Daytrotter link in the bottom navigation of the Wolfgang's app to browse sessions to your heart's content. Then flip on over to the homepage for tons of historic live performances that no doubt inspired many Daytrotter performers. And if after all that you feel like giving that lonely little star up there some company by adding 3 or 4 of his buddies, well, that would be mighty generous. Hope you enjoy the new app. Cheers. - Wolfgang's.
