### 5/5 — Best App for Hong Kong Radio Stations

*2017-02-09*

Thank you for finally updating this app.  I love the variety of cantonese radio stations on here.  Many of these channels were hard to find here in the United States, especially the Guangdong stations.  Thank you so much!

### 1/5 — Another app that does not work

*2015-07-12*

A black screen followed by the splash screen and that's it!!

### 5/5 — Stations are good, ads are unbearable

*2015-04-23, version 8.6*

Love the stations, but get rid of the full screen ads. They are very disruptive and sometimes cause the player to crash.

### 1/5 — China Radio

*2014-07-07*

Very slow to make connection with selected station. About 2 minutes to make connection if a connection is possible.

### 1/5 — Poor app - all in Cantonese

*2014-05-28*

This app is all in Cantonese, and the stations are all rather rubbish. Looks else where for a better app, in Mandarin.

### 2/5 — < 50%

*2013-01-20*

I think almost half stations generate error messages.  The stations that do work are good.

### 5/5 — 太好的!

*2012-11-27*
