Pros and cons of 5FM app for iPhone and iPad

5FM app good for

I am from Germany and immediately fall in love with this radio station. Had some really great time @ Clifton&Camps Bay beach with "you"!!!!! Love it!
This is an awesome App, I use it to listen to 5FM in Toronto, Canada! One request, it would be nice if playback controls and the multitask bar were integrated for when the app is in the background. Thank you!!!

Some bad moments

Hi, Ive downloaded the app about 9months ago and Ive been actively using the app everyday but for the last 2 weeks. I cant listen to 5FM due to the facts that all music, talking and adds are in fast forward mode and sounds like chipmunks I think there might be some bug that needs to be fixed. I already wrote a email on the 5FM website without reply. Could you please look at it ASAP as the app is currently of no use and I cant listen to 5FM and live in Germany so really would like to use it again. Thanks!!
The app does not update the song info or playlist only the twitter feed... Pls fix this bug!! Will be cool app once it works
Even though you cant see updated info on songs or the web cam, its still a pretty sweet app, having the ability to listen to the radio is cool(no interruptions) I grew up listening to 5ive fm now that I live in the states (5 years) it feels good to listen when ever I want too. Ty
Very cool app. Pity theres no song info or playlist. Why not? They advertise it. Also the webcam view is tiny. I dont really see the point of looking at a little picture of a studio...
Nice work. Been waiting for this for a while now :D Finally:D
This is great app for all those 5FM lovers. Never miss a second again! Keep up to date with Twitter feeds and your fav DJ all in one app. Nicely styled interface - easy to use. Get it NOW!!!!
