I am sadly not exaggerating when I say this is the worse app I have ever downloaded. On iPhones it just asks you to enter the code sent to my email every time I open it, but then never sends code (yes have checked spam!). On Android it has started just saying an error occured loading this content. So now cannot use it at all on either device. We just want to listen to Graham Norton on catch up! 💔

Hi Clare, thanks for your review. It would be great to understand more about the emails you are receiving to log into the Virgin Radio app. Are they password reset emails? Sending MFA codes to email addresses is not currently part of our standard log in process. Please fill out this form with more details - https://forms.gle/m2PvZP4PZAwEPVQd6

I have used this app for ages, it has always worked without issue. I mainly use it on my phone to stream in my old car via a bluetooth receiver and it works very well. Happy to recommend it 👍 04/05/21 I'm still very happy with the app but I would like one feature added if possible please... as the radio is being received via digital signal, could you add a "what's playing now" screen or section. This could also link to artist info, latest releases, purchase & streaming options etc. 😀

Hi Marlon, thanks for your review. Glad to hear you're still enjoying the app. Song information is available in the app already! Tap on the audio bar at the bottom of your screen when playing live radio. This will take you to a page with information about the song Now Playing, tap on that to go through to a list of songs Recently Played. Thanks.

Bring back the old app! Used to listen to you with no problems, now it constantly stops when on. When connected to my van it now doesn't show whats playing and sometimes shows what I was listening or watching previously and also just stops playing for no reason so then have to pull over to start it up again or just change to another radio station.
