Edit: (After the most recent update it began opeming. I will give it stars until I can test more.) My recently installed app on my Android phone will not open or connect. A pop-up keeps saying the app keeps stopping - something that is quit obvious. Rebooting the phone has no . effect. Hate to give it one star, but since it can't be used, this is the only option.

The app has much to offer, but I had to google several times to find some of it. Surprisingly, the first hidden info was the schedule! CBC radio is important in my life. With a new phone, I'm listening to it live or to podcasts more via the app than on the radio or via my laptop. Podcasts of past shows are important. Offline listening is necessary. Intuitive ease of finding links and navigating to what one expects or hopes to find needs work. A few more words would help too.

I love having all my favorite CBC shows in the same place, however with podcast there is no way to track what episodes I've already listened too. Would be nice to just add a mark and finished option so next time I open the app I don't have to remember where I left off. Also a sort option would be handy as well so I can go back to the start of a podcast series and listen from the beginning instead of having to scroll all the way down the episode list.
