Download MP3 2.0.0.0

Find and play your favorite songs on the go or save and keep them in playlists with a neat app
There are many users out there who like to keep their preferred music tracks onto portable devices, so as to have them at hand no matter where they are.

Nonetheless, when it comes to discovering and downloading those songs it is recommended to use a dedicated tool that can take care of these tasks.

For Windows Phone users there are numerous applications waiting to be put to the test and one of them goes by the suggestive name of Download MP3.

Easy to use GUI, with less visual appeal

The looks of this app are decent on the whole, despite the lack of attractive graphics caused by the focus on practicality that is obvious from the first run.

Well organized and with all the features at hand, Download MP3 makes it easy for you to go through the lists of results and it allows you to filter them according to a few criteria, in order to help you find the songs and artists you want to listen to.

Very annoying are the advertisements banners that follow you in almost every corner of the utility, not to forget the numerous prompts to try out some third-party apps are also ever-present inside the app.

Quick search and useful playback options

In case you don't see a song you like among the suggestions shown inside the main screen, you can start a search and enjoy the responsive engine that brings the results of your query in a few instants.

Another welcomed addition to the feature set of Download MP3 is represented by the controls that are meant to enhance the playback experience.

More precisely, you will be able to set any song on repeat and even have them play in random order, besides the stop, play, pause next and previous commands.

Download the tracks and create playlists on the spot

Among the advantages offered by this utility are the possibility to cache the music tracks locally, so as to be able to play them even when Internet connectivity is not available and also the feature that enables you to mark the songs from the results list and add them to a playlist.

You can create as many lists as you want and it is very easy to rearrange the contained items and thus organize the play order exactly as you please.

Be advised that the ringtone and YouTube download options that are included require third-party apps, so you should use them with extra care.

If it weren't for the pesky ads and prompts, this app could be rated with top marks, but it also has a price tag attached to it.
