What to look at before you choose
Free tiers drive the complaints
Most listeners use the free version, so ratings often react to ads, skip limits and download restrictions rather than to sound quality or the catalogue.
Bundled apps carry big totals
Several of these apps come with a telecom plan or a phone, which inflates the rating count. Compare the star split, not just the number of ratings.
A three step check
Check the volume
A 4.8 from 30 ratings is a weaker signal than a 4.3 from 900.
Check the date
A business changes hands, a manager leaves, and the rating takes a year to catch up. Look at what people wrote this quarter.
Check whether anyone replied
A company that answers its worst reviews is telling you what happens when something goes wrong for you.
Questions
Do these ratings say anything about which app has more songs?
No. A store rating records what users chose to write about, not the size of a catalogue or licensing deals.
How often is this ranking updated?
Whenever a source's rating average is refreshed. Each entry carries its own as of date.
Can a company pay to rank higher here?
No. Placement is the GoCredible Score and nothing else. If that ever changes, the paid entries are labelled inline.
