Public Radio Player App Reviews

Almost great

Im wondering when the app will be updated with iOS 9 and iPhone 6+ support. It does not support the larger screen sizes, and when my iPhone goes to sleep, the audio gets all cut off and "crackly". Impossible to listen too. Also reduces battery life by having to keep the screen on. Other than that, I love the app!

Unreliable

Often crashes or just hangs. Annoying.

Love it

Love "all things considered",car talk, etc. ads pay for my free listening. My default news.

The Best

The best. Keeps me informed and compassionate.

Awesome

I wish there was a way to learn how to use it to its fullest potential, directions?anywho, thankful i can get some shows i want to listen to, wish i could pause and play the shows i save, wish i could find the shows i want i.e., "ADVENTURES IN STEREO WITH J ROCC" hosted by the legendary J Rocc from KPFK Los Angeles...but yo s/o to your efforts and keep it up. still learning about it to be real, so far im intrigued (ive had it for a week)

Excellent App

Works better and is more reliable than the stations own website

Poifect

I like this app.

Easy

Simple interface, does what it claims, consistent experience.

Just plain broken

Episodes listed are from last year and live streaming doesnt work

Costs a lot but doesnt work for me

I downloaded this not noticing its price and was instantly billed $20.96. My local station, KPBS, turns out not to be on the list of available stations. I have deleted the app. Its obviously easier to buy a cheap radio and leave the iPhone out of the loop.

Love my NPR!

I love being able to access my favorite NPR stations and shows wherever I happen to be! My daughter recently moved to a city without an NPR station and was distressed to think how she would survive without Morning Edition and Fresh Air, but was thrilled when I told her about this app. Now she can listen to the same content as me at the same time, even though were miles apart.

great app

works great and you can listen to any public radio station you want. only thing missing is an alarm that actually wakes you up WITH the radio. Only problem is that the app occasionally stops playing and you have to close and restart.

Never plays

Downloaded this app sometime back. It always takes forever to play. Thinking of uninstalling the app.

Needs a lot of help

The Michael Feldman shows played without a hitch. However, Ask Me Another will neither play nor download. Whats the point of this app if it doesnt work? Please fix this!

Early Riser

What a wonderful app as I can listen to the local public radio feed wherever I am at. I also can easily find new public radio stations when I am in new locales.

Wont start

Increasingly fails to start up. Rebooting of iPhone required. Now that doesnt work. Nor one app doesnt support local station programming.

Some stations do not work. Still its great!

Im pleased with the app and the service overall, but somehow disappointed that not all streams are live.
