Today both Apple and Android have supplied their phones with music apps that allows users to purchase songs and music albums to listen to them at their convenience. These apps provide quality service to the customers, but there are other music apps available in both the Android and Apple marketplace that provide the same amount of quality music, but they also have added features that give them an edge over the basic pre-installed apps in Apple and Android phones.While there are hundreds of apps that have music or music clips for you to listen to. On both markets, there are a handful of apps that provide superior quality and service to their users.
One of the first apps that provides this service is Pandora. Pandora allows users to select a musician they enjoy and then Pandora will create a custom radio station for them that plays songs by that artist or songs that are similar. It also has a voting system and skip option that allow you to improve the station by up-voting the songs you like and down-vote and skipping the songs you don’t like.
Another app, Spotify, offers similar features to Pandora but it further improves their services by allowing you to make playlists and save those playlists to listen to offline with a paid subscription service of $10 a month. This subscription isn’t very necessary if you only occasionally listen to music but if you listen to music all the time and commute it can be a valuable service.
SoundCloud is another great music app because it allows users to upload their music but it also has a fairly large library for users to listen to. It also allows users to make playlists and listen to them offline. However, it does not feature a radio station service like Pandora and Spotify.
Lastly, while not a music app, YouTube is important to consider as a music app. It has an incredibly extensive music library and allows users to watch a music video along with the music. It also allows you to make playlists. The drawbacks with YouTube are that you have to have Internet access to use it, and most of the time you have to watch an ad to get to your video. However, if you can make it past the ad and have Internet access then you will be able to find almost any song you can think of.
Each of these apps provides users a quality experience, but what’s important to consider most when deciding which one you want is what you want most. YouTube has the largest music library, Sound Cloud allows you to upload your own music and listen to other’s music as well, Pandora offers a streamlined radio system, and spotify offers offline playlists that can be listened to anytime.
