Hopeless app design when working on an iPad and 3AW or 2GB et all is in the background and it is locked in portrait mode with volume buttons reversed. Thank you for your attention to this 2026 matter 👍 ### 2/5 — Register and Re-register *2026-07-31, version 25.16.0* System makes you relog in every week - why do I need to register to listen to the radio. ### 3/5 — App requires re-logging on after network service drops *2026-07-28, version 25.15.2* App in general is okay, but I find quite often after loosing network service it frequently and inconveniently requires you to re-enter access credentials to start using again. ### 2/5 — Always drops out *2026-05-21, version 25.15.1* Very convenient app but probably the worst app I have ever used. I can’t tell you how many times it buffers or just drops out and needs restarting. It is very annoying and with the bombardment of ads it makes it hard to keep using. ### 2/5 — Drop outs *2026-05-08, version 25.15.0* When travelling with minimal cellular coverage, the app drop outs which is expected, but then won’t resume itself upon returning to cellular coverage. It used to do this ok up until about a month ago. I now have to shut down and restart the app to continue ### 3/5 — Suggestion for an Auto-Sync Feature for Live Sports *2026-03-08, version 25.10.11* Hi, I have a suggestion for a future update to the 2GB, 3AW, 4BC and 6PR apps. Would it be possible to introduce an auto-sync feature that allows the radio commentary to automatically sync with live sports streaming services? For example, listeners could sync the radio broadcast with: NRL coverage on Kayo Sports or 9Now AFL coverage on 7plus or Kayo Sports This feature would allow fans to listen to the radio commentary while watching the game on TV or via streaming, without needing to manually pause or adjust the timing. An automatic syncing option would make the experience much smoother and easier for listeners who prefer radio commentary but also want to watch the match live. It would greatly improve the overall listening and viewing experience when following NRL and AFL games. Thanks for considering this idea for a future update. ### 2/5 — Great, but it keeps logging out *2025-11-10, version 25.10.1* The app is easy to navigate, however it tends to have a mind of its own changing screen in carplay. The most annoying feature of this app is the continual need to log in ### 2/5 — Log-in *2025-09-15, version 25.10.1* This is the most annoying app; it randomly insists on me logging in and always whilst I am driving or at some inconvenient moment. Why is it necessary? ### 1/5 — Broken *2025-08-31, version 25.10.0* The latest update has broken the app. The new banner screen detailing the new audio sync cannot be removed or minimised, rendering the app useless. ### 1/5 — This app is not well thought out *2025-08-15, version 25.9.0* Terrible app. Jump in the car in the morning. You push the app to listen in, and you can’t. The app makes you physically enter your email address to login. Very inconvenient. Stopped using it, and switched to podcasts. ### 3/5 — I’m using Radio App instead *2025-08-01, version 25.9.0* This app was ok for a while, but recently it makes me log back in regularly, and my username and password never autofill, which makes it very painful. I’ve now started using Radio App instead to listen to 2GB. Much easier. ### 3/5 — Good content, poor performance *2025-07-21, version 25.9.0* This is not a review of the content, but of the App’s performance. The layout, ease of navigation and audio quality are generally good. However, the app has an unfortunate glitch where it unexpectedly shuts down, particularly when listening to a highlight of a show. It’s very frustrating when listening to a highlight to have it crash about three minutes in. This has been a persistent issue despite updates. ### 1/5 — Messed up again *2025-04-25, version 25.7.17* Once again the latest update does not work on apple CarPlay. Who tests these updates? Almost giving up on 2GB. Thank you app developers. ### 2/5 — Frustrating *2025-04-21, version 25.7.17* With your latest update, your app no longer works by selecting it on Apple Car play in any of the cars we have tried. You have to start it on the phone instead. Does no one check these things? ### 3/5 — Hot iPhone *2025-02-27, version 25.7.15* My iPhone gets incredibly hot when using the app, none of my other streaming apps do this. Could it be using a lot of processor power to run? iPhone 14 Pro plus ### 1/5 — Retrograde Update *2025-02-11, version 25.7.14* This upgrade with the link to Apple Watch is useless! I will NOT be using this app anymore because the only way of changing the volume of my AirPods is via the controls on my phone. Previously I could change it with my watch ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App drops out all the time *2026-08-08, version 25.16.0* Some times I have to login 2or3 times a day ### 1/5 — Won’t allow login *2026-05-26, version 25.15.1* I’ve updated the app. And I keep getting a screen with tapt telling me to update. It’s updated to the latest version. Now I can’t listen at all… ### 1/5 — Apple *2026-05-08, version 25.15.0* Still should work on Apple speakers. Come on get it done it’s been years. ### 1/5 — Absolutely useless *2026-05-06, version 25.11.2* Need to log in every time you use the App. Seems incapable of remembering a user name and password - very annoying and frustrating ### 1/5 — Constantly have to log in *2026-05-05, version 25.11.1* Why do I have to always have to log in? Always open the app when I’m the car to listen to it and it’s always wanting to log in again. Don’t have the info required or the ability to do it whilst in the car. Poor performance. If I’m logged in then let me stay logged in. ### 1/5 — Keeps logging me out *2026-04-30, version 25.11.1* This App logs me out all the time, it’s painful. ### 1/5 — Car play broken for a while now *2026-03-03, version 25.10.11* Car play has been broken for a while now. You have to open the 2GB app first on the phone. Only then the car play app will work. Was not like this in the past. Please fix it for gods sake. ### 1/5 — Dropping Out *2025-10-30, version 25.10.1* The app was great but just recently it asks you to log in all the time and now it continuously drops out both on the car and on Google Home. ### 1/5 — App terrible *2025-10-22, version 25.10.1* This app continually drops out and request you to put in your password so annoying especially when you’re driving. I just heard someone on Ben Fordham show say exactly the same thing. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2025-09-27, version 25.10.1* It is annoying how often you have to login to the app. No facility for app to fill in email address and password. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Unable use 2GB app on mid north coast. *2026-04-27, version 25.11.1* App restart app but doesn’t allow ### 5/5 — Fault has been rectified. All good now. *2025-09-02, version 25.10.1* Since you’ve added the new sync feature, all I get is… 三つ 764, で2 Audio Sync is now available! Sync live commentary on The Continuous Call for the NRL season to your viewing experience. And can go no further. I now have to listen via Alexa ### 5/5 — Apple car play no longer works after recent update *2025-04-27, version 25.7.17* After the most recent update the 2GB app in Apple car play no longer works. The car play app crashes and closes immediately upon opening. Have tried reporting the issue however found no reasonable way to report the issue to the app developer ### 5/5 — I love 2GB *2025-03-24, version 25.7.15* I love 2GB it is the best thing I’ve heard ### 5/5 — Rev Bill Crews. *2023-09-28* Rev Crews could well have his heart in the right place, but, please could he have some guidance into how to manage a talk back program. He asks for ideas from his audience, they phone in , he then ……answers with his thoughts and over talks them before they can even express a full opinion. Honestly It’s the only time l have to turn 2GB off. Please give this man time off to learn how to run a smooth program like his colleagues on your Station. I enjoy Talk Back but it needs to be an exchange of an Ideas rather than a caller who can’t get a word in. Michael McLaren, John Stanley and so many others in your Stable are such a pleasure to listen too. They are “thinkers” who are even keen to hear the other side of a subject. I feel Rev Cruze would perhaps be more attuned to the ABC format. Yours sincerely Merrilyn Whitehead. ### 5/5 — 2GB is my mate 🤗 *2023-09-01* I will talk about the things I don’t like because if I talk about what I do like I’ll be here all night. I don’t like so much football, there is more than enough on television. I don’t like that you don’t have the two Murrays on all year long. I think Chris O’Keefe is great and really gets to the heart of things. Not too fussed about Deborah Knight, she isn’t tough enough and I always feel like I’m in her classroom 😣 ### 5/5 — Advertising *2023-01-29* I don’t like the ads being served immediately when you go in to the app. I often go to the app to hear something instantly but miss it due to being forced to listen to an ad first. Understand the commercials are important to fund the program but make it in line with radio advertising. ### 5/5 — Listener from Tassie *2022-08-04* I listen to your programs from Tasmania and think they are great, so interesting and you learn a lot regarding what’s going on especially in NSW as that as we’re we used to live. It is disappointing that we are unable to join in with your competition but it’s a bonus for us to be able to listen to your programs Thank you Margaret Davies ### 5/5 — 2GB Is Tops *2022-05-07* I have listened to 2GB for many years and been privileged to be interviewed by Ben in supporting Dying With Dignity in relation to a past family member. In summary I value all the presenters’ knowledge and research, willingness to hear all audience opinions, up to date news...particularly international affairs and Australia’s security status in relation to China. 2GB has been a distraction and comforting voice after the passing of my dear husband when loneliness and silence threatened to engulf me during covid....thankfully I am 21 months down that path and feeling stronger! Thanks in particular to Chris, Ray and Ben! ### 5/5 — 2GB Garden Clinic *2022-03-25* Love listening to 2GB on my mobile every weekend to Graham Ross on the Garden Clinic his show is very informative , interesting and he’s a lovely person! I wish his show reverted back to the original 3 hours as two just isn’t enough! The Garden Clinic has been broadcasted for nearly 40 years that shows how much it’s loved by so many 🌺 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
