iPhone Radio App Sound Stops upon Switching Apps

Two days ago my iPhone suddenly stopped playing sound from my radio app upon switching apps. Previously, I could switch to any app and the radio app would continue to play. Now the radio app only plays as long as it's in the foreground.


There are no settings in the radio app related to playing sound in the background.


How do I return my iPhone to its prior behavior?

The app developer may not have updated their software to ensure compatibility with the iOS version your device is currently running.


If you encounter any challenges with third-party applications, the best course of action is to directly contact the app developer for further assistance. Here's a brief guide on how to do it:


  1. Identify the app developer.
  2. Visit their website or app store listing.
  3. Look for their contact information or support channels.
  4. Clearly describe the issue you are facing.
  5. Provide any necessary information they may need.
  6. Follow their instructions and provide feedback.
  7. Be patient and follow up if needed.


By reaching out to the app developer, you increase your chances of receiving accurate and personalized support for the challenges you're experiencing. To contact an App developer --> How to contact an app developer - Apple Support
