Really disappointing. I have been using the apple music app for many months and have been perfectly happy with how it's developed. I assumed this classical music app would work similarly. but it's impossible to cast to my Chromecast devices. absolutely essential for playing through hifi. The full screen 'now playing' screen only works sometimes (the screen you can fast forward), icons become unresponsive and don't work, 'add to library' is missing lots of the time. Shambles.

Almost, there. The player could have a bit of a more simple layout, losing the separate play and pause buttons and just having a dual play pause button or progress button, with the fast forward to the right or below it and the rewind button to the left or above it. Back forward skip buttons could be ta slider, rather than two separate previous and next buttons. This layout as it is now, rather than my suggested layout makeso music player a bit of a screen hog and waste of space, but its Ok.

Very glitchy app. Most of the time it does not want to actually play any tracks. I find I have to add it to my library, then use Apple Music to play it. A really stupid issue, since any music app needs to first and foremost PLAY music, not just be a glorified search tool for another app. At this point I only keep this app because it does make searching for classical music easier than Music does. But having to switch back and forth to play anything is really annoying.
