Download MP3 Music Free 1.20.0.0
Windows Phone owners can go through a wide variety of specialized apps made just for this purpose and Download MP3 Music Free tries to fit in this category and help you enjoy some nice songs while you are on the go.
Practical layout with every function in plain sight
The looks of this app are quite decent on the whole, despite a few low quality images displayed onto some tiles assigned to the songs you find using the search engine.
Well organized and with all the features at hand, Download MP3 Music Free seems to be focusing more on practicality and ease of use rather than on offering visually appealing graphics.
Moving through the lists of results and the various section of the utility is smooth, without any glitches, but there are some really annoying prompts that appear out of the blue, asking you to rate and review the app or to try some other utilities.
Strange search results and useful playback controls
When it comes to the queries you will carry out to find the music you like, you will face some interesting situations, as the results seem to have little if anything to do with the keywords you input.
Famous artists and top hits are completely missing from this application's database, but you can try some of the songs and remixes it manages to gather on the results list, as some can be pretty nice.
The sorting options that are available next to the search filed are not helping much either, but there is a silver lining in there and surprisingly enough it is related to the controls Download MP3 Music Free puts at tour fingertips for managing the playback.
Thus, you can listen to the music tracks in random order, put them on repeat and, more importantly, add them to playlists you can create on the spot.
Extra functions and downloading issues
The application has several buttons that are meant only to inform you that in order to actually benefit from the respective function you will have to download and install a different app.
The downloader component is not working as it should and in fact you will not be able to get onto your phone any of the songs you like because when the corresponding button is pressed, a webpage opens up taking you to a paid online ringtone service.
