Google Music iPhone App

Chillimonster · 2 Oct 2012 at 15:54

I have around 15K songs on Google music. On android i used to use the official app as it was simple and efficient.

Whats considered the best app on iOS for this. Dont mind paying for the best one, but would rather hear peoples opinions before i part with my cash as there are a few options available, and going through them to find the best could cost me a small fortune!

Cheers..

I'd like to offer some recommendations but I cannot even find the official android app, am I doing it wrong?

That said, Gmusic seems get good reviews on iTunes, so that may be worth go?

Mike, use MarketEnabler to find it. It isn't offered in the UK yet.

Chillimonster, take a look at iTunes match, almost the same thing but you have to pay £21 a year.

Skully, thanks, I now have the apk

If I can get it up and running, I'll give Gmusic a go, it's only £1.49, it's just a shame it won't run on my old iPod touch 2nd gen.

Edit: it seems that I already have Gomusic purchased on my iTunes account, I guess I must have picked it up when it was free.

Once I figure out how to get some music onto google music I'll let you know how well Gomusic does or doesn't work

Sorry I probably should have gone into more details. You'll need to connect via a proxy to USA Google Music, which will allow you to download the Google Music Uploader. Once done you can upload all your music then get to it with your phone

Thanks, that would explain why I could download the Android app but not upload anything.

Now I have jumped thru the many hoops I have now got Gomusic up and running on my iPhone and its working well:

I've only got one album uploaded so far, so once I get some more music on there I'll post a more in depth review of Gotunes.

I took the plunge and bought GMusic and must say its impressive and intuitve (so much so that the Mrs is using it as well!)
