### 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.

### 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!

### 2/5 — 重播節目不能續播

*2021-02-19, version 2.29*

聽重溫節目時，凡有任何語音及音效輸入，都會停播及彈番出做直播，要重頭播放，用handfree,又入能用暫停播放功能，請改善。

### 2/5 — 重播功能畀電話打斷之後不會繼續之前聽的位置，需要手動調動。不方便。

### 2/5 — Regular user

*2020-10-05, version 2.29*

### 1/5 — 不暢順、不好用，殘體字Logo

*2019-04-14, version 2.21*

設計不暢順、界面不好用，尚有很大的改良空間。請勿用殘體字Logo，中華民族五千年文字歷史在商企不經意或推波助瀾下日漸喪失了。

### 1/5 — The right side is annoying

*2019-03-14, version 2.2*

### 1/5 — Needs updates

*2017-11-22, version 1.66*

This is a media apps but it is not up to date. It always stop running by itself. I use the apps since it came out but this issue never fixed.

It is a very useful apps for people always on mobile. Please provide better quality of work. Thanks

比網頁版方便。讚一個。

### 5/5 — Awesome works great

*2012-09-26, version 1.0*

Works great

### 4/5 — Everything is good ... except volume

*2019-03-18, version 2.2*

The app seems to set the volume to maximum all the time. It almost blows my ear drum off. Otherwise, I like the new interface.

In the Control Center, I can pause but I cannot play after paused.

I’m not sure it is a problem with my phone or iOS.

### 4/5 — Appreciate!

*2018-03-22, version 2.00*

What a breakthrough in renewing the app! My only complaint is that the earphone icon at the upper right corner seems less sensitive on the touchscreen.

### 4/5 — Non-standard audio controls

*2018-03-17, version 2.00*

Great improvement over version 1, but the implementation of audio is non-standard. Cannot control live radio via the Notification Centre, or auto stop when timer’s up.
