Softonic review

Unofficial desktop client for Grooveshark, with support for Last.fm

GrooveWalrus is the first desktop client that lets you play music from the online streaming service Grooveshark.

Thanks to GrooveWalrus, you won’t have to launch your web browser and load up the Grooveshark website every time you want to listen to some online music. Plus it adds very interesting extra features to the original app, such as the possibility to import, save and share the songs you listen to.

Another good thing about GrooveWalrus is the integration with Last.fm. You can scrobble music to your Last.fm account, as well as read more about the band you’re listening to and have access to the playlists created by similar artists and songs – though we have so say this last part didn’t seem to work.

In all, GrooveWalrus looks like an interesting project with a lot of potential, but it’s still in development. Playback takes a while to start, and the program freezes from time to time.

GrooveWalrus is a handy desktop client that lets you listen to music from Grooveshark and share it on Last.fm

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
