more Developer Response Hi JMK666 thanks for rating and reviewing Community Radio Plus. Do you have a fave station?
Fun to listen to!
Hi JMK666 thanks for rating and reviewing Community Radio Plus. Do you have a fave station?
The app is plain vanilla ok, which means it plays the stations well. However, there are many community stations in Australia that search cannot find. Example: Vox 106.9 fm Wollongong NSW. Please fix this. Thank you.
Developer Response Hi Anhdru, thanks for your rating and review. Sorry you had trouble finding stations. I searched for Vox in the search field at the top of the screen and it found VOX FM. Give it a go and let us know. Thanks for using Community Radio Plus.
