The variety and content is good, but it falls short everywhere else. The sound quality is poor. The streaming quality is compressed and lacks detail. Why would they limit you on skips when you pay for the service? All other paid music apps give you unlimited skips when you subscribe to a plan. It's definitely not worth $10 a month when you can pay for another service that has more content, much better sound quality, and unlimited skips for roughly the same price.

Use to work fine after several latest updates music halts and pops an error saying it's offline to try again later. I've cleared cache, nothing! I thought it was just the 1 station. Also thought it was my WIFI connectivity. It ain't, still randomly happening, particularly when I'm in the shower and can't react! At this point I'm considering cancellation of the service all together. It's expensive to be putting up with all these issues.

Always the same problem. They never fix it. I download programs for later. The app will frequently fail to pick up in the same place after a pause. I have to waste time searching for where I left off. EDITED PART: OK, so the size of the "now playing notification" in the status bar is not the fault of this app. It's the fault of One UI 7.0

EDIT: In further communication: The UI on my phone doesn't have the "easy" option mentioned, but I did find the 4-step process to add them to my Library. That doesn't resolve the horrible "OR" based non-filterable search, having no "light" mode, a convoluted and cluttered interface, "Stern?", the constant pauses "for Safety" on the UI, "Just for you" items that make zero sense and poor categorization. It is an app designed to never take the place of their expensive in-car plans.

Takes up the whole notifications bar. But if you block notifications. It doesn't work anymore. At least connected to car. I shouldn't have to periodically swipe down on my phone while driving to make sure I haven't missed a text or something. I should still be able to see my other 4 or 5 recent notifications. You can't control app from notification bar anyway so no reason to take up the entire notifications bar.

I used to be able to listen to Fox News on my S24 and skip through the commercial breaks or segments I didn't want to hear. I could go forward and backward. Very nice. Now I can only skip around in 15 second increments. Frustrating. The software update is likely designed to optimize commercials. I am switching to other products.

Way to make the new version put us in danger! I thought there was a problem with my phone until I read the reviews that the new version does not allow you to skip through news commercials. I listen primarily while I'm driving. so now instead of pushing a button and my eyes never leaving the road I have to fumble with my phone and turn it on and get to the app and then continuously keep looking down at my phone to keep forwarding 15 seconds at a time through the commercials. just plain stupi

Sad day, I begrudgingly updated to the new app (the one without Favorites but with Library) Like many, I simply hate it. Hate it enough to cancel service instead of trying to get use to the new app. Who needs the aggregation when there are so many other options. App now is more unstable and crashes more requently, the replay doesn't seem to work as robustly. The song start feature needs an option to play the end of the previous song, like before, because it doesn't start at the beginning

App has gotten better than when I last used it, but Chromecasting channels to my Youtube TV remains busted. The music will play for a little while, but then it starts pausing for very long periods of time. Seems you need to use the Youtube TV app itself to play SiriusXM on YoutubeTV, but I prefer to use my phone to control it. Would be nice if this could be fixed. I am having this issue when using the app both from my Pixel phone(s) and Pixel tablet.

1 star!! This app has had the same problem for years...PLEASE FIX IT! If you open the app in your vehicle, close the app and exit the vehicle, when you re-renter later it auto-connects and starts back up...even if it's closed and you don't want it to! And most of the time you need to go to your Apps folder and do a 'Force Stop'. I check for updates often...again, been going on for years!! 5 stars if this ever gets fixed.
