But If I stop and come back after a while I have to force close and restart app. Also If google Maps is running and talks about navigation turns, then radio pauses and doesn’t resume automatically. Please fix these issues. Song selection is good. ### 3/5 — Weird CarPlay issue *2024-08-25* It’s great to have this app, but it has a lot of issues with the CarPlay integration. It activates the mic for no reason when playing live radio. So it doesn’t play on all speakers of the car, but only on the driver side. More annoying is that it plays random tracks rather than the item you clicked on. ### 3/5 — Radio Not working when switched to another app *2024-07-26* Radio Not working when switched to another app ### 3/5 — Always hang *2024-06-09* Please try to improve the app as it really doesn’t work after couple days of installing ### 3/5 — App crashing *2020-08-05* On tapping + button on send messages to RJ section nothing happening.
