Need Overseas contact option
Great app and hosts! There needs to be a way for overseas guest to call into the shows, I suggest using a Skype option added to the app. I bet the host would like it also.

LBC app
Not currently working
Intrusive radio
This app will no longer play unless you have an account with the radio providing name and all sorts , you can’t just be an anonymous listener. If you ever call the radio they will keep your phone number and name forever and as soon as you call again they will know who is calling. Their personal data collection is legally dubious and morally reprehensible. They have become too big for their boots time to give them boot -
Love, can’t live without it!
I absolutely love listening to LBC as there is proper balance and the presenters (right now, most of them) are level headed...you get to hear everything from left and everything from right...I lived in London, moved to the US couple years back and was enjoying the app BUT IT HAS STOPPED WORKING on my iPhone for some reason. I can play Spotify, YouTube and any other radio but when I try n launch LBC, I get “Not currently available”... I tried deleting and reinstalling already.. worked fine on my Android 😩someone please sort this out
Can’t update
Great app until the last update. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app and it’s now inaccessible. Is there another update in the works?
App not updating or downloading
App wouldn’t update on iPhone 8, after working for months. Deleted app, restarted, and tried re-downloading and now it won’t download. Any ideas?
Love the content, the app is buggy
I love being able to download and listen to James O’brien. The app has been buggy for me though. It crashes often, very much so when on a bad connection or offline, even when listening to downloaded content. Logs seem to show network issues that are throwing exceptions. When stabilized this will be fantastic. Best of luck! I know iOS 13 got tricky..... and hopefully 13.3 won’t be as aggressive.
Won’t let me re-download podcast
On the weekends I download Maajid Nawaz’s show so I can listen to it at work during the week. He had podcast during this week which failed to download and there is now way to try and download them again!! I deleted the show thinking I could do it that way but no such luck. I tried everything to no avail 😓.
Broken App
A heads up to others: using this app constantly causes my iPhone to lock up and soft reboot. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it a number of times and it’s the same issue. The content of the app is good, but it ain’t worth having the phone grind to a halt and reboot a few times per day.
App worse than old Podcast app
I used to subscribe and pay for LBC Podcasts. Although the app had a few annoying glitches (such as not always picking up where you left off), you could at least listen ‘on demand’ with no adverts. With this new LBC approach, everyone can get LBC podcasts without paying. However, you now hear the entire show, including every ad break. As I live overseas they are not relevant to me so every 10 minutes I have to forward through the ads! To add insult to injury, they have also now started an overlay of video ads randomly when you open the app. LBC - please give listeners the option of paying monthly again for podcasts with no adverts. I’d happily pay again for this if I had the choice.
