BBC Sounds app replaces iPlayer Radio, takes on Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal.

The app is available on iOS and Android, with curated podcasts, radio, and music content based upon your listening history.

The BBC has launched a replacement for its iPlayer Radio app, which has been going since 2012. Available now, the BBC Sounds app offers unique recommendations by learning from your listening preferences.
And with over 80,000 hours of content available on the platform - in the form of radio, music and podcasts - that's certainly better than having to scroll through it all.

The user interface remains straightforward: a white and orange colour pallete and swipeable tiles for the different kinds of content, while the live radio section keeps the charming 'tuning dial' found in the iPlayer Radio app.
You won't be able to download content via the app just yet, but this feature will be added soon, alongside Chromecast and CarPlay integration. The BBC will keep both apps running concurrently until all features from the older app are moved into BBC Sounds.
Though its app faces tough competition from the likes of Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal, the BBC hopes that improved curation will make it a strong contender. With the service being funded by the licence fee, there are no adverts either.
The BBC Sounds app is available to download now, on iOS and Android.

Nice little action puzzle game Abzorb is free at the moment (on iOS too):

For fans of Rainbow Train's brilliant minimalist puzzle games (Klocki, Push, Hook), they have a new one out called Up Left Out.
I buy everything they release without hesitation. Their games are very polished and always excellent.

Just tried.kiwi but I found it wasn't working 100% for me

what didnt work ?....i noticed some sites freezing but turning ad blocker off cured it...like sites where a dialogue box to continue on a page should show, i cant remember exact examples now.
i also see it listed higher on my battery consumption list but maybe its me just thinking that, i left a comment and the app creator was confused saying it should use less battery, unless using it for youtube background playing...again, maybe just me as its a new app on my battery list.

Is there anywhere to sign in or am I missing it? I want my bookmarks/passwords/autofill.

Sync is not included as Google doesn't let 3rd party browsers use it

IAP's : - €1.09 – €104.99 per item

Thanks for mentioning it!

Another Pay or Wait game, played the initial tutorial today, looks complicated enough.

Currently also playing HPHM which is another play and wait or pay game.
Got to year 4, without paying a cent. Slow release of content, 2 Chapters of year every week or so.
Yet to hit a content wall, but I have been taking time and doing extra lesson to grind stats.

I admit to getting a bit carried away, I was only installing it when I wrote my post.
It's a bit bare bones alright!
Hopefully it will get better

S.M.B.

I don't see any import option so there's zero chance I fully migrate.

Did you try https://music.youtube.com/ in a browser?

If you are looking for a native app, I don't think there is one!

Thanks, was just looking for a browser version. What bitrate is YT music? Is it the same as normal youtube?
