Bug?
Genre buttons not working
A poor replacement
Utterly infuriating “walled garden” approach for podcasts that used to be available in other better podcast apps. Not only is the UI inferior, but simple things like being able to download new podcast episodes seems impossible. This was unnecessary of the BBC. The app is likely a great app, but forcing listeners to use it over better alternatives is shortsighted.

Needs fix
Regularly doesn’t play 5live requiring uninstall & phone reset - please FIX (iPhone 11, iOS 15)
Verdens beste radioapp 💃🕺❗️
Fantastiske radiokanaler! Avanserte appfunksjoner! Radio 1: party eller chill! Ung musikk. Radio 2: kos og kontakt! Hyggelige programledere og voksen musikk. Radio 3: seriøst! Klassisk musikk, kunstmusikk, verdensmusikk. Radio 4: seriøst snakk! Samfunn, kultur, politikk. Radio 4e: arkivgull! Gamle radioteater, radiokomedier, boklesing. Radio 5: sport! Sport på dagtid og lyttertelefoner på natt. Radio 6: Alternativ! Kjent og ukjent, nytt og gammelt innen pop og rock. World Service: global kanal! Verdensledende nyheter. Appen er lett å bruke men har mange funksjoner så du må bare prøve litt. På Home velger du kanal øverst på siden. Du kan sveipe mellom kanalene. Lenger ned på siden er det mange opptak/podcast, det er bare forvirrende. Men holder du deg øverst på Home ser du rett under de runde kanalene at du kan trykke på Stations & Schedules. Da får du programskjema med kanalene fortsatt øverst. I programskjema er live-programmet som går markert med stor sirkel. Du kan også spille i opptak alle andre program, fra alle kanaler, som har spilleknapp til høyre i programskjema! Trykker du heller på bildet til venstre får du lese meget god informasjon om det programmet. Når du leser denne, kan du også velge Bookmark for én episode eller Subscribe for en serie. Dine utvalgte finner du på My Sounds. God lytting!

Why should anybody need an account
... in order to listen to radio? I don't want personalised recommendations. If I did, I'd get my news on Facebook. Of course, you want to track and analyse how I am using your service. Why can't you do that anonymously?
