I live in Australia and the radio stations here are horrific, there is only one or two stations that are genre specific and everything else is a mixed bag, hosts on every station have nothing to talk about apart from what their kids had for breakfast and the stations are completely overrun with ads, I play rova throughout the day and have converted 50+ people to listen to NZ radio because of this app.

This is the most useless app. Hardly ever works, just an endless spinning wheel when trying to load the live cricket stream. The app is hard to navigate, poorly designed and unreliable. It was a sad day when the executives of NZ Cricket decided to handover media right to these jokers.

I use this app everyday, not great to be honest, constantly crashing, always need to manually restart to get a stream working, doesn't load enough data into buffer if you have shotty reception. But damn, make the notification stop button a pause button so it doesn't completely disappear when you just want to pause it. Such a useless feature. Maybe try some beta testers and get some general feedback?

Uses about 500mb an hour, so impossible to use for long, unless you're on unlimited data. Seems to stop randomly, and then you have to go into the app to restart.

This app is terrible. It takes ages to get a radio station to play, it just sits there buffering for ages, then it'll just stop playing randomly and I can't get it to play again. This morning it won't play at all, despite shutting the app down and even restarting my phone

Love this app!!!! I've started using it instead of acast, much more user-friendly and I like being able to listen to radio easier apart from in my car
