This is a deal breaker. Rating changed to 2 stars ### 2/5 — Sender nicht verfügbar *2025-12-02, version 2.0* Viele der Sender sind nicht verfügbar ### 2/5 — 60s *2025-09-29, version 2.0* No 60s radio ### 1/5 — The July 21 change *2025-07-30, version 2.0* For years I enjoyed Gideon Coe’s tunes and humor on BBC 6 live and past shows. Now his name doesn’t even come up in a search and how do I see a station’s schedule? ### 1/5 — Bloody adverts *2025-06-18, version 2.0* Ads stop this app loading. Utter rubbish. ### 1/5 — Would not work *2025-06-02, version 2.0* Downloaded app but it froze on an add for a candy crush ad. Phone is I-Phone 14 with latest OS. ### 3/5 — It has issues *2025-05-10, version 2.0* It’s a nice,y presented apps …but the continues commercials are a real pain. ### 2/5 — BBC 2 doesn’t work *2025-04-05, version 2.0* I purchased the ad free addition simply because no adverts and to support developer. But the main station I listen to does not work BBC 2 status of station when pressed unavailable . So pointless for me and only worth 2.5 Star ### 2/5 — Great App until they stopped all BBC radio channels *2025-03-11, version 2.0* Loved this app until all station broadcast buy the BBC stopped working. ### 2/5 — Not user friendly *2025-02-12, version 2.0* This was ok but with annoying Ads. So I paid to have the ads removed I was even congratulated for doing so. Now I can not GET ANY SOUND. Just useless ### 3/5 — Great…until now! *2025-01-24, version 2.0* When trying to listen to BBC 6 Music, app says “not available”. Why oh why? Please fix this! 😧 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-06-03, version 2.0* All of the stations say not available ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-05-10, version 2.0* Paid for lifetime subscription… stopped working completely 2 weeks later. No bbc stations available and developer does not respond. ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2026-04-18, version 2.0* Still waiting for an update. Most radio stations not available. ### 1/5 — British Radios *2026-01-30, version 2.0* BBC radios -4 not working ### 1/5 — Talk Radio removed from playlist *2025-12-26, version 2.0* This app had Talk Radio but it was removed from playlist ### 1/5 — Really poor now *2025-12-23, version 2.0* I bought this app many years ago and at that time it was great however now in 2025 it is really really poor. Many of the BBC main radio channels no longer open. It crashes regularly. It loses connection regularly and occasionally it will clear all of your saved channels. It also doesn’t allow you to add a new radio channel that has appeared in the past few years. I would not recommend this to anybody any longer, it’s really poor. ### 1/5 — No more BBC Radio support *2025-12-22, version 2.0* I used to love listening to the BBC World Service on this app but it appears that all of a sudden the BBC channels don’t work anymore. Disappointing ### 1/5 — Limited *2025-12-03, version 2.0* Most of the listed radio channels are not currently working on the app (Dec 2025). ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Glitches after first station *2025-11-16, version 2.0* As above ### 1/5 — Reception *2025-10-14, version 2.0* I know too get blamed on the wifi but every other app works fine. This one keeps dropping out I then have to cancel the play back and join again resulting in an advert every 10 minutes ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2026-03-03, version 2.0* Hi, a very good Radio app easy to use thank you ### 5/5 — Still works on my old iPad *2025-09-21, version 2.0* Ok so I just gonna say I use this on a iPad Air 1 from 2013 it’s 2025 and it still works grate on this iPad I love the radio in a car so knowing this on my iPad it good it has all the stuff I like so yeh👍 ### 5/5 — UK Radio *2025-08-28, version 2.0* It’s great to be able to British radio stations from Australia makes me want to visit again. ### 5/5 — UK TUNES *2025-06-09, version 2.0* Great to hear the tunes from the UK ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-06-09, version 2.0* Like in uk ### 5/5 — Eko Mendresse *2025-02-25, version 2.0* As I travel a lot I can listen to my favourite British radio in foreign countries.Fantastic. ### 5/5 — Ahhhhh *2024-11-28, version 2.0* Why is the sound turning off when the screen locks! 😭😫😢 ### 5/5 — Great Radio app *2024-11-26, version 2.0* Just wish that when an alarm rings or a call comes through / reminder etc … the radio would resume broadcasting on it’s own instead of me having to restart it manually.
