TouchTunes: Control Bar Music

I was singing this app’s praises when I first got it but you all are dirty with the way you do things. Credits should apply to ANY bar, not just one at a time. And if you purchase the credits, there should definitely not be a time limit on when you use them! And my biggest pet peeve is the option to jump the line. I spent 2 credits on a song last night and never heard it because people kept skipping ahead of me. I was at the bar a full hour after the purchase and it never came up until finally I got petty and spent 4 more credits just to hear it. However, I deserve a refund for the 2 credits that were wasted. You either need to do away with the skip option or else give it a limit so that my song will eventually be played even though I *only* spent 2 credits on it. I’ve been using TouchTunes since this summer and that particular problem has never happened before- and I was in a small bar. I find it hard to believe that there were that many people spending 4 credits per song just so theirs would be next. That makes me suspicious that you are just making it look that way to get some of us to spend more credits.

This app is complete trash. While at the bar last night I bought the app with numerous credits and then purchased a song, interested in how it worked. It immediately showed that my song had been played and took the credits. I assumed it was just a poorly worded notification and figured it would play after the 3 song queue. It never played. I kept waiting thinking that I had made a mistake, double checked where i was and that I was selecting the right bar. So I went ahead and just bought the song a second time since I had already wasted my money on credits. This time a 7 song queue. It never played. I waited through 15 additional songs before we finally left the bar and the song never played from either purchase. Now I have fewer dollars with only a few worthless credits left in an app I’m going to just delete anyway as it’s trash. Don’t use this unless you want to burn your money on an app that can’t do the single thing it is built to do. It will just take your money and give you nothing in return.

As a bar manager that has been using this app for several years, I cringe at the thought of how much money I’ve spent on this app (over 3000 plays, you do the math). Nevertheless, I’ve always enjoyed (and continue) to use it. Prices always seemed fair and it’s a great help when a customer requests a song or you need to change the atmosphere in the bar. Over a year ago or so, ALL credits worked at ANY location. They changed it to check-in locations only. Not a big deal, considering previous stated circumstances. However, this new update is a complete sham. They return the “everywhere” feature of versions past, but lower the credit count because it’s a “new” feature, I guess? Has always been 18 credits for $5, and is now 12 for the same price. As a loyal customer for years, SHAME ON YOU. I never write reviews (I’ll go ahead and sincerely give you 5 stars for versions past),but this appalled me. I’ll just be using my manager reward credits from now on, until they get rid of that....YOU CAN DO BETTER, TOUCHTUNES.

Love TouchTunes (other than my area keeps raising the price for a song) but can you please at least show the current playlist so I can see what I have to hear until my song plays. I’ve seen the same song every place for the past day and I know T-Pain doesn’t play electronica or Irish music. To amend why my review went down stars: “your songs will play in 7 songs”, it’s been at least 12... and I lost count after that so glad I played for them to come next, could have been nice to have a better estimate..... To amend yet again, this service is good on places that have low attendance, in a moderate area and definitely not on a holiday. You should probably advertise places that “close the juke box” before patrons buy a song... since the server just said that they close the juke box on ‘big days’ if this true then you need to let your patrons know. I think I’d rather go straight to the bar and ask for them to play my song, at least it will play in the 6 hours I have been here.

If you want to hear your song you have to pay a ridiculous amount of money bc otherwise people will just skip you constantly. Didn’t used to have this problem bc the people around here hasn’t bothered to download the app. Now that there are some that use it I never hear my music. I’m here for three or so hours and never get to my songs bc I pay at the juke box not on this broken overpriced app. Only cost 3 credits to skip ahead on the juke box but apparently cost 4 on the app! Ridiculous, unacceptable, a terrible business model showing this “company” thinks we are all stupid. As if we can’t tell they are making updates to force us to spend more if we want to hear our music. I will NEVER spend money on touchtunes again. Not on the terribly made app and DEFINITELY not on the jukebox itself bc it ruins my night when I expect to hear my songs but only hear other people’s garbage for the whole time I’m here!!!!!!!!
