Pros and cons of iFM Radio Controller app for iPhone and iPad

iFM Radio Controller app good for

Update: works in the background and when the screen is off. -- I just got the iFM receiver for my iPod touch and this app fails to impress me. What century is the developer living in? No multitasking? When you turn the screen off, the radio stops? WTF? You want us to keep the app open with the display ON? Batteries arent supposed to be taken for granted!
I live on an island and I still get the channels that I want, good stuff!
To the developer, Please upgrade to make it possible to listen in the background (even after pressing the home button). Then Im planning to buy the tuner.
The app works great if you havethe required hardware discussed in the description.
Somebody plz tell me hw to buy the hardware looked up on Internet but all show that they dnt ship pobox plz help
Just download this and connect the hardware receiver to my new ipod touch 4th gen....working very good and I enjoying listening my local radio stations through this device...highly recommended!!!

Some bad moments

The FM tuner is not too bad itself but the whole thing keeps crashing after a few minutes when mutlitasking or even when simply locking the iPhone (using iPhone 4 FW 4.3.1). I get the message saying to connect the iFM hardware... To avoid this, youll need to keep the app awake (with screen on) and therefore drain your battery. This is pretty disapointing as we are also unable to either play games or use Internet while listening to radio. Need a fix please...
I have an original IFM for IPod. While I can use the IPhone to power this and listen via headphones this APP does not even recognize the older IFM version when connected
Have been using this for a year and despite the fact you couldnt multitask and that on occasion it wouldnt recognize the FM unit I was mostly happy with this because I could listen to FM without eating up all my data. Since the upgrade you now have to keep the screen active in order for it work. FFS doesnt anyone test these things before release???? What was a relatively decent product is now completely useless.
The app said you have to have special headphones, I couldnt even try it!
When you download it u need a special type of head-phones. No wonder why the app is free.
In order to use iFM, you must first buy their hardware to plug into your device.
