What's New in British Radio Player

2.1.3

October 23, 2026

Resolved full screen and landscape orientation issues on iPad

User reviews

Intriguing app!

Nice app any chance you could let it rotate so it plays on a horizontally oriented iPad? Works fine when iPad is vertical but appears sideways when iPad is on a keyboard. Thanks!

Response from developer

Thanks very much for your feedback. I'll fix this in a future update!

Great clean app

I like how you can see a list of songs that have just played and add to different music services. The one thing it is missing is shortcut controls, e.g. Running a specific station through a shortcut or siri

Response from developer

Hi thanks very much for your review! Look out for Siri integration in a future update :)

Love it

Great app with a clean and user-friendly design.
Everything works smoothly, and the main features are easy to find and use. Overall, I've had a very positive experience with it.
Definitely recommended!

Response from developer

Great for BBC radio stations

Found this app after the creator/ developer posted his creation on BBCsounds on Reddit.
Just the major BBC radio stations for now which is all I’m looking for being in the US. Simple to use and all stations play instantly with no lag.
I really appreciate the developer’s efforts!

Response from developer

Thanks very much for your review! I really appreciate the feedback :)

Excellent radio app

This is a brilliant app for BBC radio. Replaced Sounds app, which doesn’t let you select ‘favourite’ stations.
Thanks to the developer for giving it away!
The planner is really good, would be nice if landscape mode was available when browsing the guide.

Response from developer

Thanks very much for your review and I'm glad you're enjoying the app. I'll implement a landscape mode for the planner in a future update!
