talkSPORT for Android
Jim White. I might be alone in this but he's annoying, sensationalist, over excitable. And ubiquitous lately. When he's on, I'm off.
Good app but it really, REALLY needs a timer function. It would stop me using Nobex radio half of the time!
Much of the content doesn't work. E.g. all those articles where you need to scroll right to see the top 10 so and so, don't work properly.
Radio cuts off non-stop
It used to work for me but now it doesn't why
With all the negative reviews for USA based ppl, I was doubtful this was going to work. But so far so good
Used to be a decent app. Now everyone the signal drops or is interrupted I get an advert. Has made it unusable.
Love talksport but the app is garbage. Stops all the time. I use the listen again feature and it just stops randomly if you open your phone etc. Surely it's not difficult to sort out.
It is now almost unusable, as every time there is a pause in audio, for example an alarm sounding, you have to listen to an advert before you can listen to the official TalkSport channel. On a radio station that is already heavily advert based, this becomes extremely frustrating and stops me from listening at all.
So does talksport now think its ok to place adverts right in the middle of all the chat ?? What's happened ?? Its awful. I'll be uninstalling this app.
Changed the app so that u have to listen to an advert before the stream to the station starts. Use radio player app to avoid this
The app breaks up allot and is totally ruined by adverts, they seem to take precedent over everything, news, presenters, everything. The presenter will be in mid sentence and the ads will cut, or the ads will finish and the and the presenters will be talking already, you don't even get any news anymore, well if youre lucky you may hear the newsreader saying bye. And worse than all that the ads are the same every break and 20 minutes of the same ads every hour is too much.
unusuable app. everytime signal drops you have gotta listen to a 30 sec adverts. I make sure that I will never buy anything that is advertised in here!!!
Only plays adverts, over and over and over and over, stopping play after each one
Last year great this year can't listen to the games I live in Canada
Fix it already!!!!
Not sure why but neither the app or mobile site will make a good connection before being dropped ...then if you do get a connection it's endless bookies ads. Horrible experience... reminds me why I've uninstalled it twice before. Literally, don't waste your time!!!
Love talksport itself but app is annoying as it will just turn off for no reason and if you are on the internet and play a video (whether video has sound or not) 99% of the time app will just stop and you have to turn it on again! Think I might be better off with a DAB radio! Frustrating
My main gripe is with the listen again feature in the schedule tab. Whilst the audio is playing, if you lock your screen and open it again it will stop the recording and return to the main schedule page. Very annoying as you lose the point where you were at. The IOS version sends the audio to a media player, a much better idea. Also the 30 minute time stamps are temperamental. Would be 5 ☆ for me if that aspect was sorted out.
While in the US: requests location permissions, once granted says, "cannot listen due to rights restrictions.. if in the US use the app." Absolutely ridiculous
Used to be good... It used to let us listen to whichever EPL match we chose but now it's just one random match and never my team. That's the only reason I used the app. Uninstalled and disappointed.
Why the constant Adverts breaks and mid conversation? How can we listen to the discussion of sport when all I'm getting is a Ferrero Rocher adverts. I don't want chocolates! #UPDATED# After you've completely trashed Jim White's show (25 mins of adverts to 5 mins of discussion) interrupted by half hour news slots, I have done the same to your app. So you keep your chocolates and breast augmentation Adverts! Gone back to TuneIn free radio, where only the scheduled Adverts are played!
Garbage. They should let proper radio apps stream their radio shows during weekend fixtures as this app is absolute guff.
After exiting or minimizing the app, audio doesn't play in the background. It stops if my phone screen is off.
App overall is good as I use it to listen to talkSPORT as I have since the station started as talkRADIO. Only issue I have really with this app is the stream is several minutes behind what it should be.
Rubbish. Simply rubbish why you can not listen to commentary in Europe of EPL games
Whilst I like talk sport I find this app very frustrating because it doesn't work a lot of the time for me so have to dig out my radio instead which wouldn't be the case if it actually worked all the time
man this used to be the best app, but now the button to listen to which game i want doesnt show up sometimes. i was listening to liverpool v watford and it was all fine and then i had to stop for a minute and noe i cant get back to the game
Updated review: The 17/18 Premier League season is available in the States again. Sometimes when I open the app is just a white screen, otherwise this app provides get live coverage.
The podcasts always cut out after 20 minutes and then there no function provided to resume where you left off. So you listen to the first 20 mins again and it cuts out again. Frustrating. Sort it out please.
I got this app for the news stories rather than the radio player.. but the news articles format sucks! Most of the news articles are told by clicking through a series of pictures. With each pic there should be some text content related to the pic. However only the text from the first pic is shown so you never get the full article.. joke app. Delete
App gets visually better with each update.....but works worse with each update... SORT IT OUT!! First version was the best and actually worked
It's alright for free... Adverts get annoying and it could do with a "Contact the show" feature either linking to Twitter or email
A fantastic app, love every aspect of it, headlines news, top stories and a wonderful talk sport casts. If you like the premiere League, you will love Talk Sport App Radio (TSAR)
The app creator must have been bladderated when he threw this junk together. VERY POOR.
They say listen live, but it's not ,it keeps going to adverts when the show is still going on very, very annoying ,
Average. The always on display controls don't work on Samsung. Intermittently drops connection
Has to be minimised to run without stopping randomly, other than that not bad
Would be better if you could adjust the quality of the download as slow wifi networks constantly buffer.

This is a horrible app. Keeps crashing and restarting. I wish I could give zero stars.
