Right -- Excellent. Thanks. I missed that before.. and yes I had this same 
experience and asked myself "What happened?"

OK I'll have to go back and look that up, well work doing. Agreed. I guess was 
testing so much in Android, I forgot that apple actually closes.  Would be nice 
to expose this in the LC SA settings for iOS.

Sorry - that was meant to go direct, not via the list.

My deepest apologies.

Picky about punctuation 
in "App News", 10Aug2017, it has
 button (right on iOS left on Android) after the file
       should be
 button (right on iOS,  left on Android); after the file
(i.e. added one comma, and one semi-colon  other punctuation options 
would also work :)


" the index will show is in a green "   - should be 'it', not 'is'

And do I really *need* to start an audio playback to download it ??
I dislike this, in the same kind of way I dislike auto-play web sites.  
When I'm in a quiet environment, I shouldn't make sound unless I need 
and choose to; maybe it could open with the Player set to 'pause', so it 
then took one more action before any sound, and I had a chance to 
download without doing that.


Also, when you download you get a 'progress message' which is obscured 
by the Player controls.

And the progress message is kind of "amateur" looking -
  Received 123Kb of 23456Kb at 678Kb/serc   is so 1980s.
Give it some kind of visual progress marker (line that fills in, or a 
circle that ills round. If you want to give numbers, give the total size 
and the remaining seconds or something like that.
Or, if you actually really like the current style, use multiple fields, 
or tabs, or something so that the formatting of the current value 
(always changing) doesn't make the rest of the text move around.


When I start the app up, I get choices "Gems", "Surprise Me" or 
"Listen". If I choose listen, and then make a further choice - it's not 
clear how to get back again. I *expected* the Home button to take me to 
the home screen - but it takes me one step back (i.e. to 'listen'). I 
spent a while trying other ways to get back to the start - because once 
I had touched 'home' and it didn't take me there, I didn;t immediately 
try it again.


More later if I see anything ...
Alex.

I'm not sure exactly what this "stay in sleep mode" gets us… but yes, it's an 
interesting option.

if we use this hack, would the audio continue to play when the user goes out ?

Why are you recommending it?

---

"imagery"

Yes, with 400,000 still images on our in-house server and 30 years of 
commissioned art work I'm try to leverage stills as much as we can.

I'm planning to fix the wretched scrolling on the home screen asap by 
flattening those groups and bring the one scrolling group to the top layer on 
"its own" so to speak. Most of the will be deprecated in V1.1 as we build more 
robust UI/UX to the content what you see was just to get us going.

Accolades don't help me, I prefer Ruthless Critique (some of my brothers here 
have already issued scathing reviews 

"I love the app etc and don't take this the wrong way….[the good and the bad]"

So if you are into being a design reviewer… email me off list.

Have you considered using the plist hack so your app can stay in sleep mode 
in the background?

I can't tell if the suggestion is a feature request or a suggestion to fix 
the Android issue. If the latter, the sleep mode thing isn't an option on 
Android, which always retains apps in RAM until it needs the memory.
