BBC WS

Sirikali on

Superb app very timely indeed. Goes a long way to introduce the BBC WS to a whole new generation. While keeping the Beeb at the forefront of ingenuity. I just cannot believe how easy this makes it for me or anyone with a smartphone listen to their favourite World service programme anywhere in the world. A far cry from the good old days of the transistor Short Wave world receiver radio. Just marvellous.

Where’s the Text version?

Looks like video version is forced on to user. I can’t watch video (with Audio) at my work setting or outside settings where silence is preferred. In new version, where’s the Text Version (which we could read) as earlier

Back to 2000

If the goal of this new “vintage” app was to take the BBC back to the early 2000’s, they nailed it. They had the virtue and the “talent” to roll back every enhancement made over the last 15 years and end up with a mediocre app that can now be filled up with an increasingly obvious level of anti-China, anti-Russia, warmonger colonialist propaganda. Great job BBC! 🎯
