### 1/5 — Keeps cutting out…unusable!!!

*2021-10-18, version 3.7.13*

Like the title says it cuts out every 30-40 seconds…

### 1/5 — Dommage

*2021-01-14*

Ne tient même pas 30 seconde et de suite un bug , dommage!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-12-20, version 3.7.13*

Crashes after 30 seconds. Worthless.

### 1/5 — Crashes after 30 seconds

*2020-12-02, version 3.7.13*

Great app but crashes after 30 seconds of play. Looks like you haven’t updated your app in years. It’s a shame if you aren’t going to continue to support this app; you should point that out so people don’t waste their time. I am currently running iOS 14.2.1.

### 2/5 — Not roots music…

*2023-09-02, version 4.12.9*

I gave this channel a chance but it isn’t roots misic.

### 3/5 — Love the music hate the 20 second problem

*2021-10-26, version 3.7.13*

As stated plays for 20 second then pauses … deal breaker. Please fix this as this is quite a disservice to the artist

### 3/5 — Upset user

*2021-03-13, version 3.7.13*

Agree with ptevious user, latest IOS update causes bluetooth to cut out after 20 seconds. Making me Very angry. Please correct this !!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful Music

*2025-02-02*

I’m here in Devon, UK, and utterly love the music you guys play. It’s my go to station in the evening when cooking, and then for the rest of the night. I have never been to the USA but when I do I will search for you guys and the States that I can find you and your music. Could be quite a tour. Oddly enough, there is nothing else in the USA I would want to do and see. That’s weird I guess, but true.

### 5/5 — The Best…

### 5/5 — Bonza!

### 5/5 — A word of thanks...

*2023-01-01, version 4.12.9*

I don't know how you do it -- you manage to find all the old classics AND the talented newcomers to the genre. Makes for REALLY enjoyable listening. THANK YOU!

### 5/5 — Way Better….

*2022-11-22, version 4.12.9*

I was VERY disappointed when Roots would not work when I upgraded from an iPhone 6 to a 13. 
But..,but…,their platform was, VERY gratefully, reconfigured to support my upgraded phone, and I am most thankful…. Appropriate timing…to be able to hop back on this GRRREAT site.

### 5/5 — iOS update causes Bluetooth to cut off after 20 seconds or so.  Needs to be fixed urgently.

*2020-10-01, version 3.7.13*

Latest iOS update causes Bluetooth to cut off after about 20 seconds.  Please fix.

### 5/5 — Finally - yay!

*2020-09-17, version 3.7.13*

I have been searching for a true Americana & alt country station that gets it -  been listening all day - great stuff!!!  Thanks - I will spread the word - great playlist ❤️
