Generally it's ok. But quite often when I start up the app in the morning, it freezes, and all I get is a white screen with the Rayo logo and no sound. If I shut the app and start the app again - same thing. Funny how the Global Radio app always works..... Also, would be nice if there was a default option to play my favourite station when it does work. 🤔

Awful app, only reason I'm using it is because they've intentionally crippled the Kerrang! Radio app to make it unusable. That app was great, it did exactly what I needed. This new Rayo one is a bloated mess. It forces you to "like" at least 3 genres, and you can't skip it. There's only 1 I would legitimately choose. It does not auto play on opening the app. And if you don't select to receive marketing spam emails, it bugs you every time you open the app to do so. An awful bloated mess 🤮💩

This is somehow worse than the previous apps. Firstly, you cannot search a station schedule any more, so you can't find names of the shows. If you do actually manage to find the name, there is now no capacity to bookmark the show or the episodes. So you have to guess if you've listened to it or not. Finally, still no option to download shows to listen to offline. Virtually every other station app has this, very odd that this isn't an option. Please sort as I don't want to go back to the BBC!
