Christmas

Why cant i open christmas mysic

2 stars because it does what I need

When searching under the “favorites” tab, no results populate. No noticeable option to “favorite” a station.
Ads play at the most inconvenient time.
When the app is opened, I want to see my favorites, a search bar and “browse” or “near me”.
Currently the app seems too complicated when it really only serves a few purposes.

Worst app ever

Always drops. Never works when you really too. I want to listen to the show before the adds start coming.

Buggy

Soo many issues on an app that used to be fine

New update is ROTTEN

I don’t mind the ads-I understand that’s how free radio works. But this new update is HORRIBLE. The app used to open and, if you had a station “favorited” would immediately begin to play. Might be on air, might be on a commercial, but would go to whatever station you listened to. Which is what listening to the radio is supposed to be about.
But now, the app loads and just goes to a paid commercial and a loading screen, even if you have a station favorited. I don’t want to stare at a loading screen, I want to LISTEN TO THE RADIO. I can find a different app that actually PLAYS THE RADIO.
