    The new app really struggles with several features compared to the old one. When you click "view all" for live radio, it sends you to a new page each time. You can't save your favorite stations anymore, making it a hassle to search for them repeatedly. Plus, the "AIR URDU" service is missing entirely from the station list. In the old version, just a tap showed all the favorite stations instantly. The new app definitely needs improvements to match the features of the previous versions.

    What a delightful surprise! Those childhood days spent adjusting TV antennas and tuning into just one FM radio channel bring back so many memories. The FM radios in this app truly impress. The multimedia quality shines, the number of channels is abundant, and the variety of programs has really improved. One suggestion stands out. Mixing news articles with TV and FM seems unnecessary. There are already two other apps doing that. An independent FM app would be fantastic. Hats off to Prasar Bharati for their great work!

    This app stands out as one of the best in my life. I’ve been tuning into radio since 1991. Huge fan here! Now, I can enjoy over 20 languages of radio stations all in one place. Air Tirupati and FM Rainbow Vijayawada top my list of favorites. I have a couple of suggestions. First, it would be fantastic if the app could store programs from the last 24 hours or even a week. This way, anyone who misses a live show can catch up easily. Second, having access to past program schedules for all stations would be really helpful.

    Hi there! I'm currently in Singapore and I listen to NOA frequently. Lately, the app has been crashing unexpectedly for the past 3-4 months. To get it working again, I have to tap the screen to activate the program button. This allows me to listen for another minute or two before it cuts out again. My internet connection is strong, and other radio apps work just fine. Could you please pass this message on to the technical team? Thank you!

    This app is amazing! It brings all of India right to us. Perfect for staying connected, especially when you need reliable news from Akashvani. But right now, the app crashes and won’t launch. So frustrating! Why release something that doesn’t work when people need it the most?

    All India Radio officers, listen up. The previous app worked really well and was user-friendly. This new version has issues, stopping frequently. Even kids and seniors managed the old app without trouble. Now, YouTube lets you pick favorite channels easily. The current version lacks this feature, forcing users to scroll through a long list of channels each time. Please consider making the app more accessible.
