    The app is fantastic. It would be even better with English captions or a version in English. Understanding it fully would help a lot. Hope you can improve that. Thank you! 😊

    A little while ago, I updated my phone. Most apps run just fine, but this one isn’t working. Oh no! By the way, I have a Galaxy Note 4.

    It looks like there’s an issue with loading the media. The file cannot be played right now. You might want to check the format, try a different player, or ensure the file isn’t corrupted. Troubleshooting can help get it back on track.

    It sounds frustrating to have the internal player crash while trying to watch videos. You experience this issue with news and all videos. The crashes happen at the beginning or middle of playback. You use a T-Mobile LG G3 (LG D851) running Android 4.4.2 with software version KVT49L.D85110r. Have you tried clearing the app cache or updating the video player? Sometimes those steps can help improve playback issues.

    The KBS application lacks localization and doesn't offer an English version. Live or recorded broadcasts from KBS often have issues. Compared to other networks like NPR, BBS, NHK, and France 24, KBS falls behind. A solid audio news stream would truly elevate their service, comparable to the offerings from NPR, Australian ABC, BBC, and NHK. These features are crucial for users seeking reliable news streams, especially when direct links aren't accessible.
