WRC – The Official App for Android
Radio hardly works can't get it to play in browser even. After years of following this spot this my well be the year I will have to stop as I can't listen or follow it live like I have always done since the 80s.
This will become 5 star the day it adds Chromecast support
Radio is no longer crashing after 5 secs but it's instead playing on a loop after about 10. I removed and reinstalled app but still no fix. Very frustrating. I can only listen to wrc radio when I'm at home on my laptop it's ridiculous!! I love the wrc live coverage please please fix.
Have to uninstall and reinstall to get radio to stop looping - have constantly log back in - and a huge annoyance for me is the app does not auto rotate so tablet has to be used in portrait orientation. This is a basic, basic thing that should never be an issue - please sort this out as these issues are very poor for an app I pay a considerable amount in subscription.
Amazing app for keeping up with the rally! Constantly listening to the radio when it's on love the commentary! New ads on the service park live stream are annoying as its each time you open the stream, and the only other thing I'd add to the live maps if possible would be how many km's they are through a stage
No chromecast option in the app. The app was never that great, for playing video anyway, the rest of it isn't bad. I pretty much only use the app to notify me when live stages begin. If I could chromecast directly from the app, it would be so much better.
Used to be better - since recent updates it takes much longer to load, plus you have to wait for pop up ads to load and close them to access the app. Poor form.
In 2010 it was cool to watch video on a tiny screen, but in 2017 if an Android app can't cast video to a Chromecast, it's pretty useless. The way it constantly forgets logon credentials makes me wonder why I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1. Must be because I love WRC, but this app is a fail.
Everything works in the app and the app is good, but I do think the UI and layout needs improvement and also it's still a shame it hasn't got Chromecast support like RedBull TV, as video playback isn't as good as it could be at times.
Can't sign up for WRC+ because it keeps telling me that I haven't selected a product. There are no products to chose from.
There should be an option to change event schedule to the user's local time and also, app should display current UTC time. Not every WRC fan lives in UK.
as a subscriber to wrc +I love the various options, but the menus need to be less cluttered and simplified.
Latest news, live text and updates are great when the stages are live
Radio plays about 5 seconds then stops showing error. Have to ok error and press play to hear next 5 seconds of radio. Anoying.
Adverts when the app opens - sod off, that's just bloody annoying now :-(
Crashes when try to open the radio... please fix asap.
Wrc is the best rally driveing ever super fast and drive on tarmac,snow,dirt,gravel and sand you can't get anything better.
App crashes when you start the radio player.
App crashing when opening videos or radio
brilliant i can watch every highlight of any rally
Really needs Chromecast support
Awesome
The content is great and I use the app a lot during the rally weekends, however the app could really improve. Good: Live times & radio works well for me and streams with very few issues. Access to the highlights and live stages through WRC+ is great. Bad: The issues I have are the lack of android TV (Sony Bravia) and Chromecast support. I would love to be able to use my TV rather than tablet/phone. Navigation around content is a bit of a pain, there are too many sections/options in the UI to make it quick to find content, navigation could be streamlined a good bit! The WRC+ account randomly logs me out, meaning I have to sign in repeatedly over the season.
This app is absolutely terrible! Extremely slow and laggy! Random pop ups crashes my phone constantly. Only three hours of live footage? Waste of money! Will be cancelling my subscription before it is renewed at thw end of the month! Really disappointed. Would not recommend
A year later and Rally Radio does not work properly via the app, still. On the same WiFi connection I can listen via mobile web browser, but not via the app on the same internet and device. Last year I had a Galaxy S6, this time a Google Pixel. The radio works for 5 seconds and then simply stops working and provides an error message. A total shambles.
Please fix scrolling as it's very laggy. Add Chromecast. Fix the radio as it loops on 3g/4g. Make Navigation more intuitive. Best use case is WRC+ on a desktop PC. Great live tracking GPS, splits. Great job guys. Just fix the other bits to shut up the app moaners.
I have to agree with previous comments. I think €4.99 a month is great value for unfettered access to WRC content, but I'd like to be able to stream to my TV rather than watch on a small screen.
Is crap and has been crashing for over 12 months plus several times every round. Used on 3 different phones. Only support reply tells me to reinstall but it still crashes.
My kids and love watching the videos but it's hard for three of us to gather around a small phone screen to watch. Just leads to fighting. Needs to offer streaming to other devices for a higher rating. Specially for 6 bucks a month.
Absolutely useless app. Flat out refuses to play any videos at all, radio commentary streams don't load.. At best it's a nice way to read WRC news articles because that's the only content that actually works.
Browser support is problematic; videos are flash based. No chromecast support? FiA/WRC...why aren't you listening to your subscribers?
I'm very disappointed by lack of Chromecast support. As WRC+ subscriber I'd like to easily stream WRC+ content to my TV.
WRC+ is GREAT! but the one thing i hate is the onboard action connection it takes sometime to connect. The rest is GREAT
For WRC+ can you please put the length of the videos next to their titles, and maybe save our spot in a video we can't watch in one go, and maybe offer a personal playlist because it is slightly irritating having to scroll for ages to find a video, and finally maybe offer a filter or grey out videos we have watched. Thanks!
Thanks for fixing the screen timeout issue. Please add Chromecast support! And add the Re-Live feature from the web page to the app too please. Almost 5 stars.
No chromecast option in the app. Now the videos won't even play on chrome mobile or Firefox because of flash. Only on the crappie default phone browser which, surprise, is not compatible with chromecast. I can cast videos from my computer, but this is far from ideal. It used to be so easy, at least from my mobile browsers. The app was never that great, for playing video anyway, the rest of it isn't bad. If I could chromecast directly from the app, it would be so much better.
Seriously, it works well. With that being said it badly needs chromecast support so you can watch it on a big screen. Will change to 5 stars when they add that
Love the service and everything included in the app, just wish I had the ability to cast to a TV
The big issue is lack of chromecast support, also annoyingly doesn't remember your position in a video, it would be good to have the video lengths in the list and lastly it would be great to be able to add all the videos from one event to a playlist.

Very poor. Why must paying subscribers now see ads for betting? Never mind the need to login over and over, and that the home buttons which do not disappear when watching video content. If I had bought a monthly rather than yearly subscription I would cancel it now, especially given the FREE Red Bull TV coverage. This isn't good enough. You need to fix these problems ASAP, we are PAYING for this service.
