User Reviews

Times Radio is praised for its strong, credible politics/current affairs content and presenters, and for delivering an engaging listening experience. However, multiple reviews note frequent ads and a lack of essential features, such as playback controls and user-friendly functionality, which can hinder usability. The app is valued as a trusted information source but could improve by reducing ads and expanding features.

Pros

High-quality journalism with credible, expert presenters.
Unbiased, insightful current affairs coverage across politics and culture.
Engaging and informative content that helps listeners learn and stay updated.
Positive overall app experience and reliable radio (well-regarded app).

Cons

Excessive and intrusive advertising that disrupts listening.
Incomplete feature set and basic functionality gaps (limited playback controls, difficulty starting programs from the beginning, etc.).

Recent reviews

I've been using your app for a long time now. On the latest update there seems to be a flaw. When I playback a programme from the Schedule section and I tap on the 10 Second Rewind icon, it takes me back to the very start of the broadcast. When I tap it a second time it takes me forward to the correct place.
