### 3/5 — Ads Hijack my Screen

*2026-08-22, version 3.0.0*

App works well for streaming my favourite stations, however lately it has been plagued by full screen ads that don’t give any exit path. The last straw was a spam ad telling my system had been compromised and urging me to follow a link. I have now deleted the app.

### 4/5 — Good option

*2026-08-21, version 3.0.0*

Works well, great choices.

### 1/5 — Used To Be Ok, But Now………

*2026-08-20, version 3.0.0*

Inundated with ads and It got worse.  Right in the middle of a song, the app cuts into an ad!  Will be deleting this app and switching another app.  I hear “Audials Play” is a good option…….

### 1/5 — These bell direct as suck

*2026-08-15, version 3.0.0*

One of the reasons I subscribed to this music channel was because of the lack of ads. Now, when I opened it, I’m inundated with be direct ads that I don’t want, their product or these ads.

### 2/5 — Too much adds

*2026-08-07, version 3.0.0*

Adds flooded to me every time I start using this app

### 1/5 — Publicité abusive

*2026-07-24, version 3.0.0*

Affichage publicitaire à chaque changement de station et souvent impossible à éliminer de l’écran

### 1/5 — Overwhelmed by ads

*2026-07-21, version 3.0.0*

When I open this ad, I’ve got about a second to click the station. I wanna hear before ads cover the screen. About 70% of the time the ads occupy the screen in such a way that you can’t close them.. So if you want to change channels, you have to close the app entirely open it again and hope you can choose the channel you want to listen to. Before the ads lock onto your screen.

Also getting tired of having ads for gambling sites shoved down my throat.

### 5/5 — CFAR

*2026-07-21, version 3.0.0*

Loving it from afar CFAR

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2026-07-20, version 3.0.0*

When I open other apps the music stops until I come back and press play

### 1/5 — Nothing but ads

*2026-07-09, version 3.0.0*

Borderline pointless unless you want to spend your day skipping ads.
