Sounds is simple to navigate, not tailored to playlists at all unless you want that.

    I'm not sure what the problem is.
    Same here - iPhone & iPad permanently logged in.

    I’ve never heard of (let alone seen) a ‘nag screen’..!

    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

      Not Signing In is also quick and easy.
      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      I am not a number, I am a free man.

            Nag screen twice this morning, mainly when going to https://www.bbc.co.uk/ for the News. (Desktop PC, Windows 10, Firefox 127.0)

            For those who miss out on this charming young lady, here's the unadulterated Nag screen / pop-up:

                And she never misses an episode of Composer of the Week.
                It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                  This is interesting. When I clicked on the BBC link above I had to log in! I've now taken another look at what I have on phone and laptop and see that I have separate apps for News, Weather, Sounds, Proms Archive and I-player. What I haven't done is to go on to the main BBC site! This might account for occasional problems I've had in locating certain live programmes on I-player (eg the Coronation and Remembrance Sunday No Commentary).

                  Aside from the problem mentioned, I've never had an issue with logging in to any of the BBC apps so you might think this a suitable method to follow.

                      I'm 'Appless when it comes to this sort of mobile phone technology.

                      Thanks for looking in to it, Petrushka. I'll live with the Nag screen for the moment.
