Ratings and Reviews
Great app - some features missing
Love this app compared to the last one.
Some features I think are missing:
- A rolling track list of all the songs played on a show — not just the current track playing.
- A way to favourite songs so you can find them later.
Great but please fix this one thing!
Very good app in general and user friendly except for one extremely annoying feature which seems to have been included in the last update. It’s the 3 dots at the top of the screen right above the minimise arrow. These are for splitting the screen but as they are so close to the arrow, when you press the latter to return to the main page of a programme you end up hitting the dots instead and splitting the screen. This is v poor design- please remedy!
Informative and entertaining
IBBC Sounds is my go to place for reliable news reports. Ir also provides quality information on suce à wide range of topics as well as entertainment. I really like the fact that i can listen back and subscribe for topics of interest.
