📱 Mobile Streaming Issues
Listening on your phone or tablet and things aren’t working right? Here’s how to troubleshoot streaming on iOS and Android devices.
🔁 Common Mobile Issues
- Stream stops when screen locks or app is minimized
- Radio app buffers endlessly or crashes
- Wi-Fi works but mobile data does not (or vice versa)
- Stream won’t reconnect after losing signal
✅ Fixes and Workarounds
- Use VLC, GetMeRadio, or myTuner Radio instead of browser-based players
- In your phone settings, disable battery optimization for the radio app
- Enable background streaming if available in app settings
- Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data to isolate the issue
- Try the direct stream links in VLC:

📶 Reconnection Tips
If your stream drops:
- Reopen the app (some apps don’t reconnect automatically)
- Wait a few seconds before pressing Play again
- If using browser, clear cache or use an incognito tab
🛠 Still Having Trouble?
Try disabling VPN or switching DNS settings (see DNS guide). You can also test using another player like VLC or XiiaLive.
