You start the app and start listening to the radio and then it stops. The update looks great but it’s performance unfortunately isn’t. Hope this can be fixed soon as I love to hear this station in the mornings. ### 1/5 — Latest update keeps crashing *2022-07-19* Love Family Life radio, but the latest update plays for a few minutes & then stops - repeatedly. I have an iPhone 13 with the latest iOS update. ### 1/5 — Not working *2020-01-01* The iPad version of this app works fine but the iPhone version stopped working. Fix it please! ### 1/5 — Please be a “friend your iPad can turn to” by improving the UI *2019-04-04* If you’re a “friend you can turn to,” make your app be a friend to its users. The size of the buttons is directly related to how annoyed I am with it. I’m using an iPad, and this app doesn’t have a version for iPad. Even though the “Family Life Mobile” app, which no longer exists, was slow in loading the streams, at least it had decent UI controls. It would be nice if there were buttons for the streams on the side, and tabs on the bottom for Streams, Recently Played, etc. ### 2/5 — New updated version has glitches. *2022-08-05* Love this app, we use it daily in our family. Since the new updated version came out though I can only play it for a few minutes and then it turns off. I open the app again and it does the same thing. Bummed to not be able to listen anymore. Hope this gets fixed. ### 2/5 — I love the new design except for 1 thing *2022-07-31* The new design is great! There is one problem though: when I play the radio stream (I haven’t tried the others), it stops itself after just a few minutes. The only way to keep that from happening is to use no other app on my phone at the same time AND not sleep my screen. This rather disappointing. ### 2/5 — App keeps crashing *2022-07-30* This app is nice and I like the new look, but it does have some bugs that need fixing, as when you try to listen to the radio stream, it will play for a few minutes then crash. And then you have to close the app and reopen. Hopefully the developers will get these bugs fixed soon! ### 4/5 — Good! *2026-07-03* I Love The Radio And The Programs! ### 4/5 — CarPlay addition needs some work. *2025-12-15* I am THRILLED that there is now CarPlay compatibility however, it is inconvenient to have to open the app on my PHONE for the CarPlay to work. ### 4/5 — 3 ways to make the app great *2023-06-04* This app needs a back button to get back to the main screen when you’re listening to a stream. I also think it would be a good idea to have a “loading” thing for the daily verse. Another useful feature would be to include the “recently played” list in the app (or at least have a link). Besides those 3 things, the app is great. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 4/5 — 3 ways to make the app great *2023-02-14, version 2.0.6* This app needs a back button to get back to the main screen when you’re listening to a stream. I also think it would be a good idea to have a “loading” thing for the daily verse. The third thing is you should include the “recently played” list in the app (or at least have a link). Besides those 3 things, the app is great. ### 4/5 — Needs a Streaming Option *2022-12-26* This is a nicely-designed app. Audio streaming quality is very good. Unfortunately, there is no built-in support to stream the audio to Bluetooth receivers, devices that support wireless streaming via Apple Airplay, etc. It would be a great addition if the app was updated to support that. ### 4/5 — 1 thing lacking *2019-08-16* There is only one thing to make this a 5 ⭐️ app. That is a sleep timer for the streams. Would waste battery life at night with this as I enjoy falling asleep listening to a stream, but wake in the middle of the night just to turn the app off. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
