App crash

iPhone XS iOS 15.3.1

Great contents, horrible app

The app is riddled with ads. How can a news channel that prides itself in providing quality contents display the worst kind of pseudo-news click baits. The full screen ads completely kill the user experience.

Massive battery drain

In the past 24 hours, the app has spent 1 min in the foreground, and 1.9 hours doing stuff in the background, using 28% of my battery. Don’t have Background Refresh turned on for the app. Something is definitely wrong; there must be a bug of some kind.

App is broken — please fix!

App was working beautifully until today. Now it won’t play when screen is locked. This makes it useless. Also, what’s with the annoying pop-up ad? This also appeared today, so I the two are related.

Amazingly bad update

Just downloaded the latest (brand new!) version and every time I click on “International” the app crashes. FYI I have the latest iOS & an 11Pro.

2 problems

The app insists on only one orientation and so often appears upside down pn my ipad. The "journal en français facile" should be on he main menu. It is too difficult to find.

Needs improvement

The older versions worked better. Nowadays the app crashes all the time. One must always restart which is annoying.

Crashes when opened

This app will not even open. I have the latest iPhone with the latest version of iOS.

From diamond to carbon

I am mad. This USED to be in my TOP three for design and function. Poor #ux with this complete re-design. Hate the RFI iOS app has gone from navigation like a real radio to navigation like a brochure. Flat and boring.

Pop up ads galore

The moment I opened this app, it started presenting full screen popup ads. I quit and uninstalled immediately.

App’s broken.

Had it down-loaded for about 5 minutes! Upside down - it won’t spin upright on iPad! Rebooted, now it’s a blank screen. I have the latest iOS on my iPad. Too bad, so sad!

Please fix

Recently every time I open the app I get an ad that I cannot get rid of. What is going on???

Bug-ridden

Crashes on open. Delete/reinstall didn’t help. This latest release needs a do-over.

Problems loading articles

Fantastic app, keeps me very au courant with the notifications, but I have a lot of trouble loading articles. They never seem to finish loading on my iPhone 6.

a buggy app

Nice for listening to the programs but wish it backgrounded the audio

News, live feeds, previously recorded programming are all nice, the best of very few choices for RFI apps, but the app still feels unfinished: Can't background the audio, can't skip around by time in the prerecorded audio, UI isn't modern and not always easy to distinguish between a news item for listening or reading. Use it a few times a week but looking forward to a newer version.

Unprofessional app

I really love to listen to RFI. The app was working fine until the last update. It started to go off when my screen goes off, I have to keep my screen on to listen to news, and keep keep it on for long to listen to couleur tropical, 7milliard de voisin and other. Consequently, my phone heats up, and my battery goes down in lest then 2h. I hope the tech team will immediately fix the problem with a new update. For now, my rating is 5/5 for the radio RFI and 1/10 for the app.

Flawed app

The audio streaming stops if the screen eventually goes dark when the phone is inactive. You apparently have to keep touching it to continue the streaming. Also, it doesn't work in the background, which makes it impossible to use another app while listening.

Translation s'il vous plaît

Nice app! It would be very nice and a more complete app if text in news boxes, could be selected so I could use the 'iOS Define' option.

Can't listen to the radio!

Until you provide the ability to stream your radio broadcast in the background and/or after the screen auto locks, I'll be using another app. It's a shame since the rest of the app is very useful.

The white screen of nothingness

Suddenly, clicking on a video or anything beyond the home page causes a white screen with a red X in the upper right corner to keep showing up. No message of any kind just a white screen with a red X. There's only one way to get rid of it: dump the app. Too bad. It worked so well for a while.

Still needs (lots of) work

This is not a good app!!! Cons: Sounds doesn't work in background; the old app (RFI MCD) was not great but it worked in the background. No landscape mode. Crashes often. Sound goes away when screen auto-locks. Pros: News in text is available.

8 years ago, Vbx123?

RFI App a total failure

As previous reviewer wrote, a screen with an X at top right corner keeps popping up. It can't be closed and so you cannot click on your radio program. Amazing that since July it has not been fixed. Fix it or lose listeners.

Crashing on iPhone 4S

Just loaded app and looks interesting but crashes 10 seconds after opening. One star because looks like an interesting news source. Should get zero stars since it doesn't work!

11 years ago, Woyo2

Need some work

Lacking the play pause button. Confusion for the average user. needs more fixes. Too many bugs. It should have been a better version of the previous one but it's not.

11 years ago, Xalebi13

Very, very disappointing

After the latest update you can't even listen to the radio or to anything else for that matter. This is very disappointing from rfi. Hope they fix this soon

11 years ago, Hnngo

Additional Languages Would Be Nice !!!

I love the app and would give it a "5 star" if it has RFI Vietnamese, until then ...

11 years ago, NT2010

Disappointing app

I listen the news on the old app but this new version removed that option. Why? Why? I would not recommend this app. I agree with all that is said by other people.

10 years ago, Bourbadjoloff

Thx

Great radio,if you could add sleep time on it.

11 years ago, Emmanuel140

Peace of crap

The last 2 updates are pieces of crap. Not even able to listen to the radio anymore. If you cannot deal with having an app, just give up all together.

Doesn't work

I'd used this app in the past and it worked fine. It's basically nonfunctional right now. Crashes and doesn't show any content.

It didn't works

Always refreshing and nothing shows on screen . Far behind other news apps I used.

A disaster !!!

After the latest update there is no more the option to listen to the radio. I wouldn't recommend this app to anybody
