User Reviews for Freegal Music

Functionality needs work...... badly

Please fix the errors below. 1. after pausing a song, anytime I return to the app that song immediately begins playing on its own. Someone else mentioned this issue, and it still hasn’t been fixed. 2. after your list of downloaded songs is sorted, leaving the list reverts the list back to the default setting. 3. if I select a song from my download list, it will only play that one song and stop after that. There is no way to continue a stream of music beginning with the song selected— the only option is to play all songs from the beginning of the list to the end.

Patience

You must have patience using this app. It’s free through libraries, but you have to work at it. You get 5 downloads a week, and after a year you have a good set of songs. There is unlimited streaming, and you can load songs there, but you need internet access to play streaming. I have found a lot of interesting songs and musicians through Freegal, as it seems anyone can upload their music. It is missing a lot of great performers but you can find almost any song. Just takes awhile to find just the right version.

Afraid to install new Updates

1. The last time I updated the app, the “Wish List” option was gone and with it went my entire “Wish List”. It had to be researched again, taking hours. 2. The Wish List was gone and replaced by “Favorites”, but when songs are downloaded from the Favorites, they are not automatically removed from Favorites like previously with “Wish List”. Now, I need to individually choose songs to “Remove from Favorites”. Still, they visually remain after removing until the App is closed and re-opened.3. Also, when moving songs from Search to Favorites, the app puts several of each song (ie. I save 3 songs, but 15 appear on the Fav list).4. The App catalog of songs & artists is not completely cross-referenced. A search for a song title might yield one list, while a search of the original artist may not even contain the same song and vice versa. Also, a searched for song that yields “no results” can sometimes be found in it’s original form on a “Best of …” album. All in all, I still very much appreciate what I get for free… but it frequently takes some extra work on my end. Thanks and keep working on it!!

Audio quality is much better than desktop

I have been downloading songs off the freegal website for months now with access from my library card. However, the audio streaming quality on the desktop website always left something to be desired. The audio quality on the app is much better! The music selection on here can be a bit eclectic, but I have still found lots of great stuff! A good way to search out good or popular songs is to check the playlists different public libraries put together. And it’s all free! (well, payed for by taxes. Support your public libraries for great services like this!)

Update: Recent update removed local playlists

My first review was accurate at two stars. The app was updated to make the local playlists accessible. Based on this update I changed my rating to four stars.Original review:It used to be a 4 star app for me. Not perfect but workable. I had created a few playlists of downloaded songs and enjoyed them. Just updated to the new version and personal playlists are gone. This makes it far less useful.

Wide selection of songs and artist but look out for covers

I just came back to Freegal after being away for a long while. I was away because honestly, I forgot about it. You only get a few song a week but hey, they are free! You have to have the time and patience to sort through and find the songs and artists and listen to it completely before you download it. I love that they give you a wishlist for when you’ve met your limit for the week you can add to your wishlist for the next week. Like I said, it takes a lot of time but if you hang in there you can build a great collection and sort them into playlist.

Lost more than 200 songs in my playlist

I love downloading my 5 songs every week and had accumulated a great playlist of more than 200 songs. For the second time since I’ve had the app, after an update, it asked me to login and when I did, my playlist was blank, all the songs that have taken me months to download, are gone. I have to start all over over again for the third time. It has erased my two previous playlists. Very disappointing

Ausome

I have over 300 songs now! The mix of genre is great!! Dependable source to get a few songs to add each week. Music videos also to watch or build a playlist for. Most important you can sample songs before you download it. All you need is your library card. What ever city or county you live gas a public library. Its usually free to get your library card and thats it!! You can build your own private music library and make your own play lust. Ive used my PC to download my music library to my Itunes for windows 10 music library. Can play on all my devices. I even made a CD back up!! You will Love it with just a little patience and time!

This used to be a good app, but now...

[edit 8 Aug 2020]: Earlier this year the app started working, where I was able to log in. But today I went to use it and again it won't let me log in. My library's not showing up in their selection again, thus no place for me to enter my library card number to log in. Their website isn't compatible for my phone browser so I can't access that way either. Can only access Freegal through my laptop now. [Previous review]:I can no longer access my library through it. The app gives other libraries in the state but not the one in my area. I can still log in to Freegal on my computer through my library website. But the app had made it easy to listen while "on the go." Besides this, when I logged in with my computer recently, I found all my saved streams, wishlists, and download history have all been deleted from my account. Between that and not being able to use this app, it's been quite disappointing.

The Future of Music

So I downloaded this app a few months ago and it has been amazing. Great design, almost no glitches, awesome interface, good music, and all for free! This would be the dream app except for one minor problem. It’s selection of songs does not include pop music bands such as Taylor Swift, Imagine Dragons, etc. Overall though, this app is amazing and should be used by everybody. It even has a good selection of other genres such as rock and alternative. I highly recommend this app to everybody who likes alternative, rock, rap, latin, and even old-school hip-hop. This is definitely the future of music.
