I've been using this app for months now, and up until recently, hadn't had any issues and was really enjoying listening and finding new music and artists. HOWEVER, the past two weeks, I've been only able to play 1 -2 songs before the app stops working properly (song appears to be playing but no sound, unable to pause or restart). The only way to fix this seems to be to uninstall and reinstall the app, but this only works for a day or so until the issue repeats.

It's annoying how you have to get premium just to be able to do something as simple as skipping songs. Not to mention how it adds songs to existing playlists without asking for the permission of the creator. Sometimes it stops playing after ads for no reason, so you have to start the playlist yourself again. It's a decent music app mostly..
