While the feature-set isn't the best, I find their simple UI to be a breath of fresh air and easy to navigate.

  The UI is good overall, but the search system is the worst I've ever seen. And there's no "open in app" link on the mobile site. Been like this for as long as I've been using it. It's like they don't want to be more successful than they already are.

    But that's a good thing. "Open this in the app" links are the worst advertising scum on the web.

      Generally I'd agree with you, but for certain apps, it would be nice to be given the option. I never want to be forced to use the app, but sometimes when looking at a bandcamp page and checking out the music, I'd like to switch over to listening in the app, since I don't have to keep the browser window on top for it to continue playing. The only way to do that is to go use the (bad) search feature in the app to find the thing you're already looking at in the browser.

        Not the answer you wanted but… Why not to favorite what you’re looking at in the browser and then open favorites in the app…if it turns out you don’t like what hear, unfavorite.

        Precisely. I specifically want to use the Bandcamp app, but there's literally no way to switch from web to app. There's no way to put a URL into the app, and the search is so incredibly bad that it's almost impossible to find the thing I'm already listening to, even when I'm already logged in in both places.
