Ratings and Reviews
Gutted!
Absolutely brilliant app. Does exactly what it says on the tin!
However, it needs to be said that Classic Rock plays almost the exact same tracks each evening!
Originally I only listened to Classic Rock and it was always around 10 in the evening till about midnight. Within that time you could bet that you’d hear about 75% of the songs you’d heard the night before. I ended up changing to the main channel for a bit more variety.
Only other gripe I have is that all the competitions, which are superb by the way, are mainly in the London area! I’m totally gutted because I’d love to take part in the majority concert based comps, plus all the “Wicks” ones, and the pub quiz ones. Actually I’d have a go at the lot as they really have some cracking competition prizes, but being North of the Border means I can only listen to the happy winning feckers and imagine how blinkin’ superb they must be feeling after scooping the prize they’d just got. Gutted!!!
Anyhoo I gave 5 stars in the hope that they track me down and get me to an exclusive gig with Muse or Coldplay. In return I’d delete the part above about Classic Rock!
Cuts-Out
I want to rate this app higher, and with a little tweaking I’d happily give it a big 5 stars because of the outstanding choice. BUT, if you briefly lose mobile reception signal, the app does not automatically continue playing once reception returns. Instead you have to shut the app down and re-open it again. This is a complete and utter bum every morning when I am on the tube going in and out of tunnels. I used to listen on the TuneIn radio app until Absolute Radio disappeared off of it. That app could manage it - no matter the gap in reception, it would just automatically pick the station back up again and continue playing once signal returned.
Additionally with this app you get extra songs instead of adverts. This is good - but the songs aren’t listed on the Absolute Radio playlist and when listening via the app, it doesn’t tell you what song is playing (unlike the ‘normal’ tracks). As a result I couldn’t find a great track that I heard on Absolute for the first time yesterday and now I have no way of finding out what it was! I couldn’t catch all the lyrics either because I was on a bloody train and the signal cut-out after about a minute. By the time I regained signal and restarted the app, it was back on another song.

Everybody wants more
I have been using the absolute app for a few years now. I access the site every weekend and most nights. It's great access to music when most radio stations go either off piste or stick on the evening loop tapes and serve out the same old tut night after night.
The great thing about absolute is you get to select your decade and to some degree your genre. Take it to another level and. Exonerated a member (it's free) and you don't listen to as many ad's. Everybody wants more and so here it is, more.
I mean Frank Skinner on a Saturday morning and Jason Manford on a Sunday morning, now everyone is trying a celebrity format at the weekends.... just not doing quite as good a job of it.
I lived in Dublin for a while and I could access Absolute there on the app, I was away for a short break in Paris recently and it's there too, anywhere I go on holiday, it's there. My advice, download it, try it, if it's not for you delete it, but you won't, it's one of those apps that will creep up the pages and will soon be on your front screen, then the dilemma of which one does it replace .....
