Pros and cons of WhoSampled app for iPhone and iPad

WhoSampled app good for

Before I was only with my mind to play at this game that gave so much pleasure for two decades. Now I almost have regret to have this fantastic "toy", smarter than me! But so useful.........
What an awesome app! Theres lots of crap you could waste 2.99 on, but this is worth it for true audiophiles. If you get this app, use it and then complain, youre probably just another miserable hipster douchebag with a useless degree in douchebaggery drinking PBR and complaining about everything in general. (scuse the rant but it was fun) ENJOY!!!
Great interface and really easy to use. totally worth it and highly recommended for audiophiles !
It has an incredibly slick design and is easy to use well worth the price
I bought it yesterday Im having fun with it since. I like the library feature and its so well done, all the info that it contains! A must
Love this app... Its resolved many a late night debate about who was the original musician

Some bad moments

I give it one star for an excellent concept, but it loses me with the network errors. It wont load and the message I get is "network error". It was tested on multiple iPhones, and worked on none. Fix the bugs and Ill gladly download it again.
Please provide us with an update that will enable the support for iPhone 6/6+ resolutions! $2,99 for an app that had not been updated since 1+ year (last update from march 2014) really sucks. This app has a great potential but you guys need to bring a new update so that newer iPhones (6/6+) resolutions will be supported.
I visit the WhoSampled website often and was wondering what could justify this apps price tag... Until I realized it scanned my music library and provided info for every track automatically. Awesome tool and indispensable for hip-hop heads!
Dont expect this app to work 100% of the time. The one song I was trying to figure out was not recognized. I want my money back!
Oh man the possibilities are endless with this. Much easier than scrolling through you tube comments or using webpages to track down samples. Great app!!
This app is perfect for finding music that I used to guess who the sampled artist was. I am a fan of all types of music & youd be surprised of the different genres of music sampled. To me this is not just for hip hop heads like myself. I have been able to add to my collection jazz, rock, and early R&B songs used in samples. There are even gospel samples. James Browns music is no doubt the most sampled but there are some surprises too. Makes me appreciate the art & skill of taking various loops and fusing them together. One of the most surprising finds was a James Brown beat used in the theme song of the Power Puff Girls cartoon!! This has become my favorite app.
