Ratings and reviews

Crashes using Android 14. Used to work perfectly well, but now trying to play one of the channels just crashes the app. They have "c-span now" but I can't use it to listen to just the audio stream unless I have a cable TV package... Which I don't. "Now" does do the video stream without that, but it would be nice to be able to stream audio instead while away from a WiFi network...

As others have stated this app cuts out (at random intervals) when your device isn't unlocked. Sometimes when I unlocked my phone the app it had just 'dropped' the station and I would have to click it again. Other times as soon as I unlock the phone surprise! Stream works again. Either way this is app unusable as a portable pocket radio.

I like the content, however the app continues to linger in the background with the music player paused on a channel, even after days of not using it it, and stopping the player, closing the app it is still there ready to play, the only way to ensure the app is truly stopped is to force stop the app, if that is the only way to stop it I will most likely Uninstall it.
