User reviews

Battery Drain?

I had some severe battery drain but I’m not certain it is the fault of this application. It may have contributed to the problem but was definitely not the main problem.

Beautiful

Thank you for making this app

Casting is difficult

What happened to the “cast symbol in the app? It’s very difficult to get this app to connect to a Bluetooth speaker now. Using iPhone’s setting isn’t always effective. Most radio apps have a readily apparent cast symbol to send to Bluetoth. Otherwise, always appreciate the programming on Calm.

New version only works on iPad bought in the last 21 months

The new update requires an iPad that has been purchased after October 2022. News flash, I don’t buy a new iPad every 2 years so the ipad I bought 3 years ago, no longer works with your app.
And yes, I did see an option to select if my ipad was older which I selected and the app still doesn’t work.
Thankfully, there are other apps that are as good as yours, and better, and won’t require me to be so incredibly wasteful as to have to buy a new device every few years.

Purged by Classical King FM

Sad to see that Classical King FM no longer wants long time listeners or subscribers. They have updated their App to serve iOS 16 or higher, which eliminates a significant audience.
I hope their tech personnel will replace lost contributions. Good job on fixing what wasn’t broke.
