Ahh, I'm not sure what's happened, but since the last 2 updates, the app just keeps crashing. This has happened before in the early days. The only way I can keep the app going is to have the phone on with the app open. It has just stopped while I'm writing this message.......... ahhhhh, twice now. Please fix 🙏

it keeps stopping once every few hours. it's now happening more frequently. Used to be 3 times a day. I counted 12 the other day ._. EDIT: Lowered from 2 to 1 star. Decided listening to my local library is better than listening to radio, as at least the Samsung music player won't crash EDIT: Now I'm forced to "sign up"again, and it's asking to enable location services. I want to say "Not blue" but that option is behind the home button, and I'm forced to enable it. uninstalling this trash
