Kia ora from Finland! I learned about Rova when my wife and I visited New Zealand last year. I live in Finland and Rova is the only thing I listen to. Fantastic Rova takes me back to New Zealand. Good work guys
Love the sound of hearing all music like most. It keeps me going through work time or anytime. Good job for rebranding your app too.
