## Review summary

Reviewers praise on-demand programming and event updates, but repeatedly complain about playback failures, login problems, a difficult UI, and inadequate support for older iOS devices. The app has valuable radio content when it works, but reliability and accessibility issues are widespread.

### Pros

- Interacting with the RJs and accessing program recordings on demand
- Event notifications to know when Funasia events occur
- Must-have app for fans of music and radio

### Cons

- Playback issues: audio often does not play or stops, including when the screen is locked or when in the background
- Frequent login/signup failures and login flow confusion
- Complex, not user-friendly UI with ad-heavy monetization
- Limited compatibility on older iOS devices (e.g., iPad with iOS 8, iPhone 5)
