Qobuz for Android 2.2 for Android
Qobuz is a great service. No doubt. Their apps, however, are quiye sluggish (despite grest IU) and worse: it crashes everytime I open it, thus making it impossible to use. I am hoping this will be fixed soon!
Every time I download an album in FLAC, only one track actually appears in the imported section. Bizarrely imported mp3 albums appear in full. For a service who's niche is FLAC tracks and costs double Spotify (which I was and still prepared to give up), the app needs a great deal of work and this issue needs fixing. I cannot use this until I can listen in FLAC form and won't be recommending the service until I can at least use it properly for a week or two.
It's impossible to subscribe if you live in Israël!
Fonts and cdcovers are just too small in relation to the space avalable on android and ios , even on a tablet screen. The support email only uses half of the page width? Why, it's not cool anymore :-) great sound and Mac app.
I was using the regular app when I saw this one and this "lower end" version surpassed the regular app in functionality! I actually like this one over the regular, it's smooth and less buggy than the disgusting regular app.
I had hoped to be writing this review while listening to lossless flac files via qobuz. Imported some music earlier and when I go to play an album it doesn't start and the app mostly crashes. To the people at qobuz here is a question - 'would you pay 20e at month to subscribe to an app that doesn't actually let you listen to the music?'
This app is pretty useless - I can't use external SD storage (despite finding the option to use it), so I'm limited to about 10 tracks to take offline. Also crashes all the time.
Music quality is superb, app (phone and pc) rather clunky. Music choice OK but not great
Would not connect to Facebook on tablet or phone and when pressing subscribe I just got a blank page so I couldn't even get started.
Excellent through Sonos box into HiFi - huge choice of classical albums and flac so much better than mp3 - easy to use online and makes my large CD collection somewhat redundant. Also have it on Android tablet and iPhone to listen offline - but - I cannot find a "delete" function on either device so if you load an album or artist to your "local music" you are struck with it - helpline suggested reboot - duh ! Also has a habit of refusing to play downloaded albums - so i am gradually getting cheesed off.
Sound quality is excellent. Shame about the app.... As well as feeling a bit shoddily built, I have to log in every day, not acceptable for £20 a month.

All access cancelled, excellent audio quality, sort out the app please.
Good app but could do with some improvements like remembering my username and password between phone reboots and remembering offline status. So frustrating having to login every day and having no access to my offline tracks because I have no Internet access. Most apps would default to offline mode if no Internet or at least prompt it.
Attention Qobuz! You are losing potential customers by offering this poor excuse for a mobile app along with your awful desktop version. I (and others) are perfectly happy paying a premium over Spotify for lossless music but you need to sort your service out if you ever wish to be as successful as your competitors. You need to sort this out now because we already have a bad impression of your service. Once the likes of Spotify improve their streaming quality you will be history if you carry on!
Qobuz has some great tech but this release of the app seems insufficiently tested, does wierd things like try do download mp3 of flac tracks you select to play. It can be slow and unresponsive with offline albums. Can't autogenerate play list titles. Lots of niggles. Needs a major overhaul or qobuz will loose ground to the new kids. The Qobuz product especially for jazz and classical is still awesome. So pull your fingers out and build a great app. I will beta test!!
Music quality can't currently be beaten but clunky ap, very unintuitive
All is in the title. Very frustrating not to be able to store their data on the sd card. Also, their catalogue would greatly benefit from being organized correctly. Searching for Beethoven, or Vivaldi will inevitably trigger some serious WTFs.
I am unable to save my downloaded music to the SD card in my Samsung Galaxy S5 as the option in the app only allows saving to the device. This renders the app almost useless to me as I only have 16gb of internal storage, but I have 64gb on my SD card. Please fix this! Three months after my original review this has still not been fixed hence now *
Can't choose to store on SD card on Android 4.4.4. Would like a fix please.
Rather complicated app. Still I cannot use my sd card for downloads. On the other side Qobuz is the only streaming service with excellent music quality, information about artists and a wide choice of recordings.
Sounds absolutely incredible on my DAC and even my HTC ONE (the old one). Even better than my Rega CD player. #pngwd
Not usable as I can't use my SD card to store data.
Been looking for an app like this for ages

Had a lot of connection issues with this service originally. Fingers crossed, they seem to have sorted everything as promised. Worth paying extra for the sound quality.

Do not work at all ,is not possible to choose :album or artist from the app.even search genere jazz i found 0 album...anyway the sound is superior ,fantastic.i hope we resolve the problem i have.when a new release to fix problems we have ? Tks giovanni.
I love the qobuz service but this app is still barely usable. It just constantly complains my broadband isn't good enough (it definitely is and I can't get better!) And won't play the offline copies unless I force it offline which sometimes helps.
Can't even register on this - no option to change country, but then impossible to proceed without doing so. WTF?

Brilliant quality in terms of sound but the app is really buggy. Please update this it has great potential!!

Got an ok selection of music but will not let me stream or import music in anything other than 320kb even though I've changed all my preferences to flac. I may as well keep Spotify if not resolved
I have 4G speed at 70MB/S but app is telling me insufficient speed then download or stream in mp3 320kb/s, sort your app out then we can talk subscription, absolutely frustrating now....
Good but with Pono on the horizon and HDTracks from US looking to make inroads in UK later this year; 24 bit 192khz is now highly demanded. Still better than Spotify and Google Play Music. Almost time to wish these Goodbye should they continue to offer music as MP3. Wish you (Qobuz) make your catalogue more rich.
App installed to SD card but not the music data. On hi-fi quality tracks will take up too much space without this option. While sound quality is great, I don't think not be able to justify the switch away from Spotify until this is sorted. That's why I bought a high speed data card!
