### 1/5 — Keep crashing

*2025-07-09, version 3.2.6*

The worst app ever

### 1/5 — Keep crashing

*2024-12-03, version 3.2.6*

Keep crashing once in awhile. So strange

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing, pls fix

Updated the app yesterday but still keeps crashing from time to time

### 1/5 — No connection

*2024-09-17, version 3.1.9*

No internet connection after update. Problem stays after reinstalling the app a couple of times.

### 1/5 — Walking Dog of new communist party

*2024-08-19, version 3.1.9*

A lowly platform to push ndp (new communist party) agenda

### 1/5 — Keep your iPhone active every 20 seconds

*2024-05-27, version 3.1.1*

A radio app will turn itself off if phone is inactive. Either you manually turn it on every 30 seconds or keep tapping your phone

### 2/5 — Streaming cut off when the screen is off

*2024-05-01, version 3.1.1*

I am troubled with the app while listening to the broadcast. It will be cut off shortly when my phone screen is off, and I have to login my phone to launch the app again.  Now I use the web site tor streaming instead of the app.

### 1/5 — keep cutting off when the screen is locked

*2024-03-04, version 3.1.1*

useless, got turned off every time the screen locked.

### 1/5 — Cutting in and out while on the go

*2023-10-26, version 3.0.2*

It keeps cutting in and out while on the go.  Not very reliable I must say

### 2/5 — Stop working after interruption

*2023-04-26, version 2.29*

It would be great if apps can go on auto play after the interruption from incoming calls or alarm ring off. Every time, have to re-log in and play. Also for the RePlay, each time interruption it doesn’t go on where it left off, need to manually adjust. Very inconvenience!
