The app too often fails to work. When it does work, its great, but when it doesn't, it's rather useless. I currently can browse all the songs, but when you click play, it loads indefinitely and nothing plays. No matter what song I select morning plays. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app and still the same issue. Others have reported similar this happening in other reviews.

App appears to be broken again. It will not play music, hanging on "loading..." after I hit play. I've even tried uninstalling and reinstalling after a reboot. This has worked in the past. I have even tried starting the track in Apple Music and then clicking the "play in Classical app" button. Nope, nothing works. It's good and broken

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.
