The app stops playing when the display times out. Important parts of programs are missed. Some similar apps can keep the dispay on. The only remedy now is to periodically tap the screen so the screen notices some activity and stays on. THIS IS VERY TEDIOUS AND IS IMPRACTICAL OR IMPOSSIBLE IF I'M NOT NEAR MY PHONE. (eg. listening on a Bluetooth speaker at a distance while working) Also, it is not obvious that tapping a program on the schedule takes you to the program's site and archive.

I really like having this app so I can listen any time I want instead of missing a program(s) because I'm not available when it airs live. HOWEVER, the app freezes almost every 10 minutes then I have to close it, reopen, AND fast forward to where I left off -- SO FRUSTRATING!!! I've uninstalled AND reinstalled the app several times, but it still freezes regularly. Does anyone else have this problem and if so, what can be done???

Natalie, I'm sorry for the trouble and would like you to try updating your phone settings for this app as shown in the following article. (You may copy and paste this link) https://afr.net/app-faq/android/what-to-do-when-my-app-stops-playing/

I love AFR have for many years now. Lots of great Christian & conservative programs to listen to. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because when my screen saver turns on & the screen goes to black the app stops running. Which it never did before one of the "updates" so I have to keep my screen on in order to be able to keep listening which drains down the battery & the most I can keep it on is 10 minutes then I have to open it back up again to keep listening.
