Please know that most Android devices have a built-in battery optimizer that manages the device’s apps to conserve battery. These Battery Optimization settings tend to terminate background apps and could affect playback on the CBC Listen App.
CBC Listen now requires your permission to run in the background on your Android device. To allow the Listen App to run in the background on your device, select the “Unrestricted” option in the battery settings on your device. "Unrestricted" will allow the app to run in the background even while the phone is sleeping or when the screen is locked.
While the settings differ for each device, you will usually find this option by going to Settings > Apps > All Apps> CBC Listen App > Battery > Unrestricted.
Make sure that you do not have the power save mode enabled on your device as this will also automatically shut down apps when the device is not in use and goes to sleep.
The following video shows how to change your Battery Optimization settings:
