Ratings and reviews

I love RNZ but this app can be frustrating. For the 2nd time in about 6 weeks it has frozen and won't let me in and I am unable to listen to the radio live or recorded content. Then I have to reinstall the app to listen to the radio. Also if I am listening to a podcast in my car, each time i have to stop at a destination it obviously stops the recording but on resuming my drive the recording goes back to the beginning again rather than resuming where I left off.

Love the content but this App stops playing RNZ Live shortly after I stop interacting with my cell phone or whenever I intetact with anything else on my phone. Also stops when my cell auto locks. Other live stream Apps I use do not have these issues. Be great if RNZ could catchup with the others soon !

RNZ is brilliant, but the app is really unstable. Streaming will randomly stop, and you have to press play again (and again, and again...). Would love to use it, but I've started listening to RNZ on Rova instead for more stability. Please fix, I want to use the RNZ app!
