Why?
Seems to work on my iPhone, but not with Android. I always used to be able to download when in the UK.
Bit of a pain as the iPhone has zero storage (unless you buy into the cloud which isn't going to help me listen to programmes off-line) and the Sony has a 64GB card stuck in it
Why they do this?
Want to listen to a few radio progs on the drive back from Schermany. Any way around this?
Just downloaded a few last night?
Giles Peterson and Benji B - Radio 6 and 1 respectively
Download option still there, and working, on my Android/Sony.
Just used it to download the latest episode/repeat of Cabin Pressure.
It varies from programme to programme, often because of the rights issues of the music contained therein
Wittertainment works ok
Hmmm....
specifically trying to download R4 Trump and Studio 54, Unbelievable Truth, etc so there shouldn't be any problems with music rights.
Not working for me.
What is wittertainment?
..on the drive back from Schermany
Are you abroad at the moment? Might that be why it won't let you download content?
Nope. In London. Flying home today and driving back Wednesday.
Also working for me on Android, just downloaded Unbelievable Truth and a few other R4 comedies. Update or reinstall app?
Hmm. Stopped working for me about four months ago on Android. Then I broke my phone and am currently using an HTC from 2010 so I'm not even going to try... Managed to get Audible up and running though 🙂
Does Android have any localisation settings that the app may be using to determine location?
FWIW, iPlayer has always been unstable for me on my iPhone - add in Bluetooth streaming to the car hifi and it really is a lottery as to getting playback.

Donno, but it does boil my pee when I follow a link to a BBC page, paid for with UK taxes and it tells me the content is "unavailable in your country".
Are you trying to download over wifi? Is your phone actually connected on the wifi? There is a setting to only download on wifi, so if you are trying to download on the mobile network it won't work unless you change this setting.
What is wittertainment?
The first rule of wittertainment....
....is "Hello to Jason Isaacs"
But it's more of a guideline, really.

Well, you might have done here in the UK, but not abroad, and it's all down to local licensing and copyright.
Same goes for US or Japanese stuff on DVD/BluRay, in particular.
