### 5/5 — One of a kind application

*2026-08-20, version 3.0.2*

I do have a few gripes, though the uses and accessibility of the app easily topple any frustrations I may have.  I love it.  It’s undervalued, in my opinion.  I wish I could get a job with this company.

### 5/5 — Radio Garden is the best

*2026-08-19, version 3.0.2*

Best internet Radio app ever. All I need is an internet connection and I’m listening.

### 5/5 — Connect to the world

*2026-08-17, version 3.0.2*

It’s so fascinating and amazing to be able to listen to different sounds of the world; what a genuinely amazing app; in the UK you’ll need to download a VPN (due to legal issues) but it’s easy just download a free VPN (Proton etc).

### 3/5 — Ads render app in-navigable

*2026-08-16, version 3.0.2*

Was a very good app until they plastered it with irrelevant ads that are hard to bypass. Still very cool to be able to listen to global radio.

### 5/5 — Thank you for bringing the world closer to me.

*2026-08-16, version 3.0.2*

Whenever FM radio gives me the feeling that someone is on the other side of the music. Thank you very much for developing this app, which makes me feel warm all the time.

### 2/5 — It’s …ok

*2026-08-11, version 3.0.2*

The adverts come thru when the station doesn’t. Can’t get any stations outside of the UK despite living in Ireland (EU)

### 1/5 — Radio doesn’t work

*2026-08-07, version 3.0.2*

B….l sh…t

### 4/5 — Android app better

*2026-08-05, version 3.0.2*

Android works better for example bloomberg 11 30 works at android but not on apple version please fix it

### 4/5 — Great app that needs some tweaking

*2026-08-04, version 3.0.2*

I love this app, think its super cool, love how it makes me feel getting to listen to real radio stations around the world. The only complaint I have is about the ads. Occasionally I’ll get an ad that pops up and is impossible to get it to go away. Other than this, though, the app is perfect and great on iPad.

### 2/5 — Loved until today

*2026-07-26, version 3.0.2*

Why have you agreed to show an advert that we can’t click out of?  It’s terribly annoying !
