Although there is a great selection and the idea behind this thing is awesome, the app just doesn't work. It crashes at least once every minute or so, and even music that I've purchased and downloaded will not play offline.

The app started now to drive me each day to give it 5 stars... how should I - it dies every 10 minutes now! I love Bandcamp, but this app is a royal pain in the ass! Will you ever fix it? EDIT 04-20-2017: Still not stable after the recent update. Please fix the bugs - this app really sucks and gives Bandcamp a bad reputation. EDIT 05-11-2017: Another update, but the stability problems still are the same. Annoying. One star remaining... can't rate less. EDIT 14-05-2016: I hate to write this - but the latest upgrade still didn't fix the stability problems. And please, turn off this silly "rate the app *cough* five stars" nag window! Fix the bugs - only then I'll give it 5 stars!

Great app overall; there are some minor bugs though. For example, the app will skip past some tracks on each album in my collection and wouldn't allow me to play some others. I ended up having to uninstall and reinstall the app in order to get them working. Don't let this discourage you from trying this app out, however. Other than the minor issues I noted, this app is a solid source for streaming and exploring both new and familiar music.

I bought albums on Bandcamp and the app keeps freezing up. I can't listen to an entire album without having to restart the whole app. It's very annoying because I listen to the albums during specific activities that are difficult to just stop to reboot the app. It's annoying period.

Finding a way to actually download a song in the app is more complicated than finding a bag of sugar in a supermarket, blindfolded. No idea why simple tasks need to be so overly complicated.

It would be so good if you could download albums from the app, instead of having to do it via a computer

It's a good app but I would like to either choose the quality of stream or have a option to download albums on my android device like through the desktop experience. (at the moment I have to tell my mobile browser to display in desktop mode)
No more streaming/buffering issues means I can finally use and enjoy this app! Can't wait to add more music to my library!
Music playback could still use a few features, but the app does it's job well, particularly in being a great outlet to support indie musicians.
How is there no shuffle option yet? Lots of good music on here. Just wish there was a shuffle option and download option to save music to your mobile device. Otherwise, good app to stream music
Guys is there a chance to keep cache on sd card instead of primary storage? That would be really good feature!
This update is extremely buggy. I can listen to 2 songs all the way through before it stops working. Thats if I'm lucky, sometimes the music just doesn't play. These are songs I paid for by the way. Super frustrating because this used to be my favorite app. Please fix these issues soon!
I love bandcamp website but the app has very poor UI. Sometimes i play a song its playing but i dont know where the player disappeared. Sometimes its really hard to skip within a song as the olayer keeps disappearing on touch. Another thing that i miss is being able to download purchased songs to my device. So far very frustrating. (Is this built on top of Cordova? feels like a website slash app that works very poorly)
I cannot access my purchases because there is a screen that pops up demanding that I rate the app. I have rated the app multiple times but the pop-up screen is still there, making the app unusable. I cannot switch to a different section or make the pop-up screen go away.
I love BC but the app is not very good. It's visually unappealing and does not do the artists' content justice. The website on the other hand is great. Please listen to your users, and Pleeeeeeease include a dark mode like VLC.
Why does this app need to be constantly listening on port 8888? I will remove it and leave my bad rating if you don't explain it or change that.
Exciting app! But, after 2.0 update music doesn't play. Still play only from my own collection (cache). Internet connection is good. What's wrong? Thanks.
I love bandcamp but the app sucks. Cached songs frequently not playing etc... Also bandcamp refusal to implement almost any user feature request is childish.
I love this and it is easily worth 5 stars but constantly kept demanding my review which is annoying. Still, love it! UPDATE: still keeps asking rating so lowered my initial rating. Make that stop!
This is close to a perfect companion app to a fantastic service. It doesn't try to be more than what it needs to be. Everybody already has a preferred music app so this doesn't try to be a replacement like other apps/services.
Am I cool and indie for using this app my friends said I would be and that I could brag to people on the internet because I have good music taste but I'm not really sure since I only ever listen to the best selling so is it really underground if everyone on here knows about it I'm just not sure.
Mediocre app for a great music platform. Doesn't support storing data on external SD storage. Plays annoying music when the login screen is displayed.
Works fine for streaming tracks on BandCamp but not playlist functionality is lame. If I am mistaken about that then I will edit this review.
Went from 4 to 2 stars because the app crashes all the time. --- EDIT: 1 STAR, it just crashes and stutters and crashes and crashes. Website is fantastic but this app is awful now.
Great until it started glitching and forcing me to "*cough* rate it" which I've done several times now without actually being able to use the damn thing....
