The only problem I have had with this app is that when you try to go back 15 seconds in the audio recording, it will glitch out and take you back to the very beginning. Other than that one problem, I 100% recommend trying it out! 👍 ### 5/5 — amazing app *2020-12-02, version 4.3* i'm studying japanese and this app is so helpful, there are news channels, learning, podcasts etc and it makes learning so much easier! i have tics, so writing down stuff whilst im studying is difficult, but now i can just listen whilst im drawing, playing minecraft, animal crossing etc !!! i reccomend this app to learners of japanese or people who just want to listen to cool podcasts! ^^ ### 4/5 — Fix stations *2020-07-05, version 4.0* Need to fix some stations that don’t connect. ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2020-06-08, version 4.0* It’s such an amazing app. I’m trying to learn Japanese and this has help me so much!
