As much as I like LBC, the App is awful! I don't know if it's a service sync issue but even when listening live, it'll randomly skip a few seconds along in the conversation, missing half a sentence or so. It's even worse when listening behind schedule, it can skip as far as 20 seconds or it'll just drop the sounds despite the playback running, it's just a really frustrating experience! the app constantly struggles to buffer as well, despite full reception when other apps have no issues.

The app doesn't save your progress where you got to. So if I'm playing a catch up, pause it and if I go back to it later it starts from the beginning again. Very annoying! Also the notification bar shows incorrect timestamp and progress information, compared to when you are in the app. I hope these things can be fixed so I can listen to more Nick Abbot, he is hilarious!

The app has been very patchy the past couple of days. I listen to about 10 minutes of a show and it decides to freeze, claiming "no internet connection". Strange considering that the show has been downloaded and I have no problems accessing the website. Plus no one seems to be responding to any of the complaints...save yourself some time and do not download, just use the website.
