Always with BBC, Thanks
Always with BBC to see undiscovered world
Top content - content management could be better
The BBC content is second to none, absolutely love their shows!
The app is mostly quite good too although I would wish for better ways of organising the shows I’ve subscribed to by being able to organise them manually, not just by the order in which they were subscribed; the options to group shows; icons that indicates number of shows remaining or if a new show has been released, as it’s too easy too miss content in the feed or if it’s just not what you want to listen to at the time. Just more intuitive content management generally would be really appreciated! There’s so much good content and it can be hard to keep on top of it all or find the kind of thing you’re looking for when you want it.
Easy to use, superb content!
I love the beeb, so many great shows to listen to. The app is easy to use and navigate around, I have other radio apps from national broadcasters in other countries and they are clunky in comparison. Up the BBC!
