## Review summary

Users appreciate Live365 for its diverse and unique radio content including underground hiphop and old-time shows, and support for Android Auto playback. However, many report serious issues with connectivity, app stability, and favorites management. The app frequently loses stream connection, stops playing when the device sleeps or switches focus, and struggles with slow load times. Users find navigating and searching stations difficult, and complain about the inability to exit or stop the app easily. Recent updates have worsened usability, particularly impacting favorites and Android Auto functionality.

### Pros

- Offers a wide variety of unique and underground radio stations, including niche genres like underground hiphop and old-time radio shows.
- Supports Android Auto, allowing users to listen to radio stations in the car (though recent updates have impacted this).
- Good selection of good-quality and diverse content including music and talk shows.
- The app's layout was previously good and user-friendly before some updates.

### Cons

- Persistent connectivity issues: app frequently loses connection to streaming stations, causing interruptions.
- Favorites management problems: favorites get lost randomly, are hard to access, or deleted after updates.
- Poor app stability: the app stops playing when the device screen sleeps or when focusing on other apps.
- Lack of expected functionality and poor usability: does not resume play after sleep, does not default to last played station, slow loading times, hard to navigate and search stations.
- No easy way to exit app or stop playback without force closing, leading to app running undesirably in background.
