I love the style of programs; informative and non-aggressive. Your sensible discussions with commentators and journalists help to develop balanced opinions. It is the radio station I have been waiting for throughout my adult life. I appreciate the need to fund the station, but my experience is significantly spoiled by the adverts. Many of them are condensending, embarrassing, and highly repetitive. Hence, I often listen on catch-up so I can fast forward through them. Otherwise, thank you!

I truly love Times Radio, however the app is a real pain. Why does is stop for me constantly. It will be playing fine and then will suddenly stop playing. I will have to pick up my phone and tap 'play' , 'stop', 'play' to get it working again. A real pain when driving obviously, as I can't do this while driving. Please sort it out. Another benefit would be to have a playback facility like on the BBC Sounds app, so that I can restart a programme from the start and listen to previous programmes.

Awful, very basic app....no point in it! You may as well go to the website and listen over the web. App has no casting, no timeslip or pause, it has very basic control compared to others. I live a busy, full life. I only read 1x news paper a week, "The Sunday Times", but even that's shrinking in size so doesn't last a weeks worth of reading. Content on this radio station doesn't really compliment the paper, thankfully its more autonomous. Urgently develop the APP or lose potential market share!
