Good idea! I’m going to check that for my iPhone; maybe that’s why it stops.
I find it amusing that this app struggles with modern devices. Shouldn’t technology be making things easier?

I totally agree! It’s 2023; apps should have figured this out by now!
I reflect on my early streaming days where apps were much worse. At least we can communicate issues now, hoping for a fix soon!

I’ve noticed that my Sirius app has been acting up since the last update. It seems like the screen going black might be shutting it down. Has anyone else experienced this?
I had the same issue! I think the latest OS update on my phone is causing the app to stop when the screen goes black. It’s really frustrating.

That’s a great tip! I disabled battery optimization for the Sirius app, and it’s worked wonders for me.

I’d recommend checking your battery optimization settings. Sometimes, apps can be restricted from running in the background, which might lead to this issue.
I’ve seen similar complaints on other forums. It seems this issue is not just isolated to us. Maybe Sirius needs to release a patch? Anyone know if they’re working on it?
I read that a simple workaround is to lock your phone manually instead of letting it auto-lock. It keeps the app running better for some folks.
I tried this and it does help! But let’s be real, who remembers to do that every time? Haha!

What devices are you all using? I’m curious if this issue is more common on certain models or brands. Could it really be a compatibility thing?

I’m on a Samsung and it’s been buggy after the update. Just shows how much the device matters!
Wow, all these problems and yet I can’t stop laughing at that mental image of trying to lock my phone manually every single time. Life goals! But seriously, let’s hope they address this soon.
It’s odd how technology works. You don’t realize how dependent you are on these apps until something like this happens. Here’s hoping for a fix soon!
