Sometimes the stream might stop playing, and there could be a few reasons why. Here are some tips to help you sort it out:

  1. Switch to Mobile Data Temporarily
    • Turn off Wi-Fi and use mobile data to check if the streaming issue persists. If the stream stabilizes, the problem may be with your Wi-Fi connection.
  2. Update the LiSTNR App
    • Ensure that you have the latest version of the LiSTNR app installed. Updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements.
  3. Clear the App Cache
    • Go to Settings > Apps > LiSTNR > Storage > Clear Cache. This can resolve issues caused by corrupted temporary data.
  4. Adjust Battery Optimization Settings
    • Android’s battery optimization can restrict background activities, affecting streaming apps. To adjust:
      • Settings > Battery and device care > Battery > Background usage limits > Never sleeping apps > Add LiSTNR.
      • Settings > Apps > LiSTNR > Battery > Select Optimized or Unrestricted.
      • Settings > Battery and device care > Battery > More battery settings > Turn off Adaptive battery.
      • Settings > Battery and device care > Battery > Turn off Power saving mode.
  5. Uninstall and Reinstall the LiSTNR App
    • If issues persist, uninstall the app and then reinstall it from the Google Play Store. This can resolve problems caused by corrupted data or incomplete updates.
