Excellent - and SO much better than 'Sounds', the app that's replaced it. R.I.P. BBC iPlayer Radio.
★★★★★
What was once a great great app, replaced by a far inferior sounds. BRING BACK IPLAYER RADIO BBC!!!!
★★☆☆☆
Its obvious to me at least , that the BBC could'nt care less about what their listeners think about the way they've wrecked what was a perfectly good working App. If they dont care , then why am I wasting my time ? Because before I go and never return , I'd like to add my voice to all the others who are shouting out their disgust at what has occured . And will the BBC listen and admit they were wrong ? Never in a million years !!
★★☆☆☆
No stars wasn't available as an option. This app is, unless I am badly mistaken, obsolete and has been replaced by BBC Sounds. I'd like to delete it from my tablet which does not have enough spare space but I can't. I've never used it but understand that when it was operational it was far better than BBC Sounds. Why Google insists on/can't be bothered to stop updating obsolete apps I have no idea because I have several of them on my tablet and I'd like to stop them from taking up space on it.
★★☆☆☆
BBC sounds is the worst thing the BBC ever did. Bring back iPlayer radio!
