    great to finally have the R4 podcasts and listen-again features on mobile.

    I've had it over a month, it does have 5 live, but certain programs are geo blocked.

    Love listening to R4/5

    Great to have podcasts/replays available

    I found a great way to circumvent that, at night, was to listen to 5 live on Asian Network channel.

    I can't download the global app but it is allowing me to download the regular one. But then specific downloads fail. I have allowed my location on the phone.

    I've been able to download The Infinite Monkey Cage and Kermode and Mayo's Film Reviews with no problem.

    Was opening the app today, and it suggested to upgrade to the latest version - downloaded alright, but wouldn't allow me to open it! Turns out you've to delete the app from the cloud as well as your device, then download it, and the new version will open.
