## Review summary

The Blast.FM app is praised for its strong Christian rock/metal library and features that show what’s playing, allow ratings/favorites, and work well after updates (CarPlay, watch support). However, users report reliability issues (crashes, mid-song stops), a difficult UI with small, bottom-placed controls, and inconsistent background/lock-screen behavior. There’s also demand for more older material and better cross-device/iOS compatibility. Overall, it’s a loved station with notable flaws that need fixes.

### Pros

- Large and diverse library of Christian rock/metal artists and tracks.
- Now Playing display with song ratings and favorites, plus easy visibility of what’s playing.
- Helpful updates that add features and improve playback (e.g., pause on unplug, smoother Bluetooth resume).
- CarPlay compatibility and visibility of the current track on Apple Watch in some setups.
- Overall positive reception for content quality and discovery of new artists.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and playback stops mid-song; reliability is inconsistent across devices.
- UI/UX issues: controls are small and placed low on the screen, making taps difficult and navigation awkward.
- Background playback and lock-screen/Now Playing information are inconsistent or missing; resume after alerts or in background can fail.
- Limited older material leading to repetitive playlists; desire for broader genre/history coverage.
- Compatibility problems on certain iOS versions (e.g., iOS 11.4.1) and with some devices.
