Ratings and reviews

Thank you, Vividha Bharathi team. You folks made it Android auto compatible and it now resumes playing after phone calls, very good. Still giving 4 stars because... New bug introduced - there is some timing issue that I have never seen before in earlier versions. If I launch the app, click on live radio immediately and then click on my favorite station - it keeps spinning at the bottom, never starts playing. If I wait enough time aftr launching app, also after clicking live radio, then it works.

I've been using the mobile app for several years, and been very satisfied with its contents and ease of use. However, after a recent upgrade, it has become completely unusable. Initially, it always prompts me to log in, and once I log in, it only gives me options to listen to AIR news portals. Previously, it was easy to navigate and play radios from Vividh Bharti to any city's FM radio stations. Now, even clicking on the Vividh Bharti link opens up a web browser and then crashes.

The latest update few weeks back is good. But the app refuses to start on my android. Reinstalled 3 times but same issue. Please resolve. Awesome content and rich source of information, music and knowledge in so many Indian languages. I am almost addicted to the app. Please resolve issues asap. Pease bring back the 'favourite' option in radio channel listing. Bring back the volume dial on radio. Try giving the radio a classic tuner look. Like old 📻 Update -Clearing data / cache helped. Thanks!
