Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How is this different/better than Pandora?
A: Pandora allows you to listen to music IT thinks you might like while nanoGroove taps into the extensive online database of Grooveshark to play what YOU KNOW you like.


Q: Is nanoGroove the official Grooveshark application for Windows Mobile.
A: It's such a good app, both functionally and visually that I can see where you would think that. However, nanoGroove is in no way affiliated with Grooveshark.

Q: Where do I go to make playlists I can import into nanoGroove.
A: Visit Grooveshark.com and setup a free account. Once you setup playlists of your favorite music, you can import them into nanoGroove on your phone. Simply press "view" in the bottom right corner of your screen and then select "Playlists" from the pop-up menu. On first use, you will need to enter your Grooveshark login information. Once it logs into your Grooveshark account, press refresh and then select the playlist from the drop down menu.

Q: Okay, so I went and got myself a new Grooveshark account. It's a pretty cool site. I can't believe I have not been using that site everyday! I made some playlists and follow all the steps in your FAQ to get them loaded into nanoGroove but they are not showing up. What did I do wrong?
A: Great! I am glad you are enjoying Grooveshark. I use it myself at home, work and now with nanoGroove I even use it in the car! As for your playlist problem, don't be too concerned about it. You can usually create a playlist and seconds later load that list into nanoGroove. However, it has been reported on occasion that it takes some time to get from Grooveshark to nanoGroove. So just be patient and try it again later.

Q: How many playlists can I load?
A: At the moment, you can only load 10 playlists from Grooveshark. Note that it will only load the first 10 in your list. This limit has been removed in the new patch.

Q: I have a suggestion to improve this application, will my ideas be taken into consideration?
A: Absolutely. Please post any ideas to improve this application in this thread and a compiled list will be passed on to the developer. If you really want to contact nanoGroove yourself, please visit the website linked in post #1. But remember, the more emails he has to read through, the less time he has to implement the ideas you have.

Q: I use the radio feature in Grooveshark that utilizes a Pandora style selection of music for me. Does this work in nanoGroove?
A: It currently does not, but that is a great suggestion I will pass on.

Q: Does my subscription cover the costs of updates?
A: Yes, for that major release. For example, if you purchase v1.x you get all of the updates until v2.0 is released.

Q: nanoGroove stopped working. Is something wrong? What's going on? etc.
A: nanoGroove support has been keeping me updated via email with any major news and/or updates. So far I have been able to pass the information along within minutes to this thread. So unless they catch me sleeping this thread will be the best source of up to date information of what is going on.
