Update 2/18/24: seems to be better since I no longer experience the live stream being interrupted when I look at text for older reports. It's a pretty good app. I don't like the pages that have text that automatically interrupt the live stream with the audio that goes with the text

Not good. I mostly use it to listen to the channel and the sound goes out if I try to read an article while listening. If I get a call, the sound does not come back on. Everything on your front page is stories that have run.. Nothing about ideastream, nothing about stories coming up.

Great app,except you can not turn it off. Had to uninstall to turn off. Ok read your reply. So I reinstalled app. Still a good but Evan with the procedure you provided app is still in backround. So I deleted app again. Why don't you have just a simple OFF button and make life simple. Ps tried it twice second time I clicked my heels three times and hit back twice. Did not work.
