bopdrop - social music Reviews

Bob drop is great because the explore page is constantly being updated with new people posting their music. Finding people who are into the same music as you is actually pretty easy and you can share music with them directly with no limits. I’m giving 5 stars because I believe in the potential of bopdrop and where it could go.

Three quick things: 1) You definitely get this all the time, but we need more than one song post a day. Maybe allow posts every 12 hours instead of full 24? 2) We need to be able to pick the preview point of the song. 3) If we delete a song post, we should be able to post a new one without hitting the limit.

I’m enjoying bopdrop and everything, but it’s tough to stay engaged and look at song posts from the people I follow if I’m only posting once a day. This is coming from someone who has had bopdrop for just a little over a week. It can be so much better.

bopdrop is super amazing! I love the diversity of music from all different users & it’s super easy to find new things, I do have some suggestions though. I’d like it if there could be a section where your top genres are the only genres you can see. Right now there’s an explore page and a following page but it’d be nice to have a 3rd area where you can discover stuff in the genres you enjoy & categorize your feed (but still keep the explore area as a way to step outside your genres). I’d like to be able to post more than one song a day, maybe even just 2 or 3, I understand there should be a limit, but then if you’d like to post more, then you could upgrade to a premium account to post extra music at a *small* cost (since you aren’t gaining much by posting unlimited music). I’d also like to see bios, that way we can link our socials & spotify’s and as a way to describe ourselves. This is seriously an amazing app though I really love it & have already put at least 30 new songs on my playlists!!

I’ve never seen an app such as this. Being able to share songs with your friends has never been easier. I’ve already recommended to a few. You’ve gotten all the major types of music down as well! Not only that but bopdrop is SUPER SIMPLE to use. Within a single minute, I was able to figure everything out. All the way from creating a profile to posting your very own music.

I would have a few suggestions though. When posting music to the feed, I think it would be cool to select what part of the song you want rather than it being the middle.

I also like all the small little details you guys have added as well. Like when you go to refresh the screen, the gray refresh bar follows where your finger is. Little details like this shows that you’ve spent a lot of time and effort. Easy 5 stars!

I love the idea of bopdrop and so far am having a very enjoyable experience. I have a few suggestions though.
- I would appreciate being able to change the song you post after deleting the first one, simply cause I messed up and also how much work would it really be to change the program from one post a day to one active post a day.
- I like how you can connect with a ton of people at first but you really should be able to look up people later on by genre cause I love way more than just three genres
- I wish there was a way to see what people are actively listening to on their page
- notifications on bopdrop little bubble on the home screen would also be great so it would work just like any other social media
- maybe a system of posting more than one song a day but it goes straight to your page and doesn’t show up on the “explore” tab. I would personally like to see what the people I follow are listening to and idc how much of my feed it takes up cause I chose to follow them
- find a way to market to more country listeners cause all I see on my explore is indie pop or alt music with a little r/b sprinkled in. I know the 100.5 people will never be on bopdrop but there’s a huge following for people like Tyler Childers, Cody jinks, Zach Bryan, and colter wall that are young and love to share music
Overall it’s a great app and I hope it grows more

Coming into bopdrop I thought this wasn’t going to be that good, but I was pleasantly surprised. It’s very useful to be able to see what songs are recommended by people, as finding new music is always a struggle. Being able to post only once a day sounds weird but it makes it so much better. If people spammed songs they liked it would change the weight of each post drastically. A few problems though, when you pick your favorite genres there isn’t a “rap” genre. I don’t know how this was overlooked, but it’s very frustrating because I’m not getting recommended new rap, just pop. Also the explore page is a little hard to find. It would be much better if that was at the bottom. Great app.

The concept of discovering and finding new music purely off of one app is amazing and has tons of potential, but bopdrop definitely needs some more features. The MOST VITAL needed feature is a way to find people through music genres. There should be a chat and posting section for each genre but you don’t have to post or talk in there. There can be a main feed that has all the post of people you follow, but forums for each genre. Some other good features to add would be, Direct Messages (I understand not wanting that but you already have comments so you may as well.), and being able to add as many genres as people want to their favorites, rather than just 3. I chose my 3 favorite but then put all of the ones I listen to in my bio. Other than those badly needed features bopdrop is great.

bopdrop is fantastic for connecting with people and discovering new music! I enjoy the layout of bopdrop . However if there are a few features that I think could be added to make bopdrop even better. I think you should be able to list your favorite artists on your profile somewhere. It also would be cool to display ur current favorite song on your profile page or something along those lines like around the banner image. I also think it would be nice to search for posts that include whatever keywords you type into the search bar or search by artist / band or song. I’m not sure if the reviews are checked but if you read this I hope you consider it :)

bopdrop is an amazing way to listen to new music from people with similar taste or even if you want to explore other genres! I’m a firm believer that each genre has at least ONE song that will get you hooked and bopdrop allows you to discover those songs. There are a few bugs, but it’s a new app and improvements are bound to happen. The only thing I’m sad about and why I’m only giving it 4/5 stars is that you can only post one song a day... I do understand why, because people will post 300 songs at once if they could... but being limited to only one song every 24 hours is kind of a buzzkill. Also, I can’t directly respond to other people who comment on posts so that’s something else I would like to see fixed! It’s a great app overall and it has tons of potential 😊

okay i never write reviews on anything but I gotta for this. I found this today and have already made connections with great people and found some absolute BOPS. i’ve been waiting for this type of app for so longggg. thank you to whoever created this y’all are legends. anyways, I do have something y’all can fix. when I leave the explore page sometimes to check my notifications or something and then I go back to the explore page it glitches and takes me back to the top when I would like to keep scrolling from where I left off. it’s minor and doesn’t bother me too much just a thought. anyway, can’t wait to see where bopdrop goes and updates. please don’t ever get rid of this or ima cry :,(

First off, I want to lead off by saying regardless of where bopdrop is currently at, the creators of this app are PHENOMENAL people that truly care about their app. So you can rest assured that it is in good hands and that they listen to the community.

Second, the people on bopdrop.. I have seen one single negative interaction for seven months of posting every day. Nice is an understatement. The people and posts are so wholesome. Something about music really breaks down barriers and lets people connect.

There are some glitches. Things are not perfect. But I truly have faith that things will only be improving from here. If you’re on the fence DOWNLOAD it. I promise you won’t regret it🤝

So I love bopdrop! It's helped me find a ton of new songs/artists! I love that we can choose what we want previewed & the skip to next song feature as well. I do think a night mode would add a different aesthetic to bopdrop . I also think making scrolling on bopdrop a bit smoother. Example: whenever I'm on my profile & scrolling through the songs I've posted, I'll accidentally scroll a bit to the left & it'll change me to my followers page. Maybe having to just click "followers"/"following" (like IG, Twitter) would be a good way to make viewing who we follow/follow us easier.

Well I don’t normally follow up on tik tok ads, but I like the concept. It’s a really good idea, and not very often are people able to become pioneers of new platforms. Only giving 4 stars for right now though, using bopdrop , the only allowing one post to your feed per day is bad, post amounts shouldn’t be regulated like that, also, it would be probably most beneficial to put a slider in on the songs or something, so the good parts to the song can be the main focal point of the clip of the song you hear. Again, glad someone made the platform for sure but don’t let restrictions hold back your platforms progress my guys. I’m willing to bet they’ll take off if they make those changes

I love the concept of bopdrop and it definitely fills a void for an app that makes sharing music recommendations easy! Some of my suggestions echo what others have written and I’ve also come up with some of my own:

1. Allow users to choose the section of the song that will be previewed
2. Allow users to write a bio
3. There need to be more genres—I specifically have in mind Latino and other non-Western traditions and non-English music. If the user base is heavily American or English speaking right now, a genre called “global” for now can help people expand their horizons. Adding tags for decades would be great too
4. Allow users to tag the songs they post as a particular genre and then have a feature where users search for songs posted under that one genre
5. To make it easier to find people with a common taste in music, add a feature where we can search all users who have posted a particular song
6. Have a top 50 page for each genre so users can see the most popular songs

Can’t wait to see bopdrop keep getting better and better!!

I literally love the idea of the music sharing social media platform. My one suggestion to making for future updates is allow the person posting to chose the portion of the song (similar to insta stories). I just think this would personalize it even more and also many people could post the same song but each 30sec segment would be different since not everyone loves the same part of a song. I also would use that feature a lot cause there are parts of songs that are just AMAZING and should be featured. This is just a fun suggestion for future updates.

this is an incredibly well executed app with a great idea behind it, but there’s a few things that could be better. the big one is that to be a big success, it’s going to need apple music support. i myself use apple music and bopdrop is awesome, but it would be so much better if i could open songs right into apple music. aside from that, there’s just a few design elements that could be better. for instance, i’d love to be able to swipe from the left side of the screen to go back from a user’s profile or any other subpage of a page, instead of having to scroll up and hit the back button in the top corner. there’s also a few things that could make the ui feel smoother, such as the black fill that shows what page you’re on (feed or explore) could move smoothly as you swipe to the next page instead of abruptly appearing on one side when the transition is complete. little things like that could make bopdrop much smoother and cleaner. that said, it’s already amazing. love the concept and the execution.

I really like bopdrop because I get to widen my music taste and get into new artists, and meet people with the same/ different taste however the song limit makes it lowkey hard. I know an app’s primary goal, sometimes, is to keep people on bopdrop for as long as possible, and I genuinely believe if the song limit was more than one a day, I’d spend more time on bopdrop cause I have so much I wanna drop. But I understand you don’t want too many songs in one day. If there could just be a happy medium. Also I’m not sure why I can’t listen to certain songs. Also I think we should be able to pick the sample we want to play.

long time user here! this app is definitely one of my favorite & most used apps, the concept is great & so is the community. i look forward to posting every single day, sometimes very impatiently lol. i've made countless friends, it's refreshing to find music that you haven't discovered yet through other people's posts.

i wanted to use this review to include all bopdrop suggestions / ideas / improvements i'd love to see eventually ! hoping this is the right place to do so.

dark mode (!!!)
when i scroll through my posts, it usually glitches back to the top. it's frustrating when i'm trying to see whether or not i've posted a song before, which brings me to ->
search bars on profiles. it would be extremely helpful to search for songs on profiles to see if you or someone else has posted a specific song before or not
easily being able to see if someone follows you back, like a lil "follows you" title when looking at someone's profile
i wish the hashtag feature was more practical, being able to search for hashtags is is crucial in getting more people to use the feature & find similar music easier
ability to skip through specific parts of song's on posts. for example if i wanted to hear the end of a post, you could slide to the part of the song you want to hear. not very important, but it's worth mentioning
hoping to see more ways to become verified in the future!
keep it up mr. ceo !!

I really wish there was a way to search by song so that I was able to see who all has posted a specific song! Or another way of putting it is to be able to filter my explore feed by song title or artist name.
I use the “add to this app playlist” function to save and go back to listen to songs later, but if I listen to a song I’d saved and really like it, it’s difficult to see/remember who posted it. I’d really like to know who posted it to find people with similar music tastes.

thanks for all the hard work you’ve put into making bopdrop :) wonderful so far

This is a good concept but I think people are going to get bored real quick with the 1 song post a day restriction. I’ve already gotten bored with it & I've only posted two songs. Not sure why this restriction exists. If there is a good reason I haven’t considered, I’d suggest at least raising the limit to like 3-5 a day or something. Like I really really really love the idea of bopdrop, but I truly think that 1 a day restriction is a mistake & bopdrop won’t last long for that reason. As soon as someone needs to delete an app to free up some space on their phones, I’m sure this one will be the first to go for many people because of that restriction. Also, I’d like to suggest allowing people to choose which part of the song they want to make the preview to post.

I think this is so cool! As someone who hates posting pictures of myself and putting my own work out there, this is a really cool app that focuses on your tastes, while helping to promote artists work. It’s also small enough right now that it’s easy to navigate and find new stuff without being bombarded by what’s popular according to everyone else right now. The only thing I would change is an option to search by genre, as opposed to searching by users. Unless you’ve been using it for a while it’s difficult to find new people to follow just by usernames

this app has allowed me to create playlists from a collection of songs which my friends and those I follow have invested time into discovering. It is not only a platform to discover new music, but also the first genuinely interesting and fun version of social media I’ve experienced. I highly recommend downloading and adding some bops to your rotation.

I use bopdrop so much to gain new music. I hate sharing my playlist on social media and I’m so many different text chains. This helps keep it all in one place while connecting with friends and others to gain more music. Love it

I’m always posting the music I vibe with on my instagram story and now I don’t have to go through that hassle of opening multiple apps to share my music!! It’s so easy and a fun way to connect with my friends.

I’ve been looking for an app like this. A way to share and discover music with friends and strangers. Nothing brings people together like music does. Highly recommend downloading it!

Sharing a song on Instagram is one of my favorite parts of connecting socially. This is the feature I always wish Instagram had.

So often I ask friends what new music they are listening to, and now we can share our fave tunes on this app!

I’ve been looking for a app like this for awhile. I wish that each song that was posted would state it’s genre. It is overwhelming to go and listen to all of those songs and not know if it’s even in a genre I like.

I like the idea of being able to post my song of the day and seeing my friends post there’s. It’s a good way to discover new music in a great community.

this app allows be to share any song with friends without having to text/snap/tweet. The potential for discovering new music is endless with bopdrop

I wake up with a song in my head every morning. Now I can share it with the world! A refreshing spin on music sharing.

Thank god people don’t have to share music on their insta story anymore. This is way better. Amazing app that is so easy to use! Highly recommend!

bopdrop is amazing! It’s one social platform the world has been missing for all music lovers. First of its find for music discovery and music connections. Think Instagram for music. Bravo.

Amazing app, really makes it easier to share music with friends. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!!

We needed bopdrop and it’s so clean / so easy to use. My friends and I love it! Much better way to find and share music :)

I’ve been looking for an app that makes it fun and cool to share music.
