I just asked. With VoiceOver off, you pinch in or out on the camera screen to

controls the zoom, if you'd rather use that.

Interesting. On my iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.2, if I either close tuneIn out of

Two finger double tapping pauses audio it does not stop it. Two-finger
double tapping also resumes audio. To prevent TuneIn audio from
resuming playback in other apps, be sure to activate the stop button

TuneIn Radio is, in fact, the principal radio app to have if you’re a radio
listening enthusiast. It mentions every station there is on its database, and
plays the vast bulk of those active (and not geoblocked). It also renders
stations using Flashh playable in iOS, because of its own player.
