Love the app when I abroad

in the year 2017 I left a review on this app indicating that it's the only app I know of that keeps playing audio on speaker, after Bluetooth is disconnected.. All other apps pause audio in Bluetooth is disconnected. Now, 9 years later it remains the only app I know of that continues playing audio when Bluetooth is disconnected.
