Drains batter and phone gets hot
     
by tcj9tcj · June 22, 2025

Recent update will drain your battery in an hour just listening to downloaded audio, even in airplane mode. Major bug

Drains battery
     
by Swamarian · May 27, 2026

The station selection is great, especially for the price, but with the latest iOS update, it eats my battery like there’s no tomorrow, and makes my phone overheat.

Long time user, first complaint ever.
     
by Rocki1978 · May 12, 2026

I’ve been using this app since its inception, back when it was Yahoo Radio, then Slacker Radio, the Live x Live, then Live One. This will be my first complaint. Why the unnecessary remixes of songs? I want to listen to the original 1979 song by Smashing Pumpkins, not some weird remix. I don’t want to listen to a remix of an Ace of Base song, I want to hear the actual Ace of Base song. If you want to play remixes of songs from different decades, then generate a station that plays only remixes of rock and pop songs. But leave the originals where they belong. This just distracts from the experience as a listener.

Drains and heats up the iPhone
     
by 727 from the sand pile · November 27, 2025

Even after rebooting and going into settings-privacy,security-turn off all tracking improvements still drains the battery like crazy and heats up the iPhone. Please fix this.

12 year long subscription ending.
     
by Wadarush · September 13, 2025

It was good while it lasted. Affordable streaming service with quality music turned into a data collection service. I don’t know what you’re attempting to do but no other app on this phone makes my battery overheat. Moving on to Spotify. Buh bye.

Drains the battery on iOS 26
     
by CodeeCBXB1 · September 22, 2025

After installing iOS 26 on both an iPhone 16 Pro Max as well as a 17 Pro Max, this app drains the battery crazy fast. This morning LiveOne used 45% battery with 1 min on screen and 1hr 34m in the background. That is beyond ridiculous. Pls fix, I love this app in general.

App crashes on iPad and iPhone no response from support

LiveOne stopped working on both my iPhone and ipad support has not followed up as of yet

Round 2
     
by ibanezkid · November 8, 2025

I believe this site used to be slacker.com. I liked it back then around 11 or 12 years ago. It was my first customized radio stations. Pretty nice page interface with some good music in their library. Sometimes I wondered how certain songs were picked for each genre. Although, after some time I could finally mold each station towards what i wanted. In the last 5 years or so I experienced some technical problems at least with my android, not necessarily my laptop. But it's finally good to hear that most of those problems have been taken care of. Not so sure about my firestick app. For those people cutting this site / app for the music library. Hold your horses, cause what else do you have to compare to pandora? Yes i do like pandora but no reason to put down this based on library size. Because there are songs here that are not on pandora and vice versa.
