BBC Sounds Reviews

Problem Playing this Item

Josh-io on

Belgium

Consistently and constantly having “problem playing this item” error. Have to uninstall and reinstall the app almost weekly. Ridiculous.

Good

peter rpan on

Belgium

It’s good, it works well and the sports commentary is really nice.

Great App

Anton of Flanders on

Belgium

Fantastic collection of interviews and especially radio plays of great quality!

Poor to access specific podcasts

Lambic on

Belgium

BBC iPlayer was infinitely better to access podcasts station per station. With Sounds all podcasts are mixed-up, it is a total mess. I listen much less, total loss of time. Beeb definitely got damaged by this.

I can’t get enough of this app and my only regret is that I’m unable to access certain files as I live abroad - it’s such a shame.

Love my BBC sounds

Belgium

As an expat in Belgium I cannot tell you how much pleasure I get from BBC sounds. It’s an integral part of my day..so many programmes and podcasts I love. I’m still listening to the Amy Winehouse podcast on the ten year anniversary of her death. Brilliant compilation from a lifelong fan of Amy. Thank you !
