Favorite Radio channel of all time! The mobile app is handy for at home and for long road trips where I normally lose fm signal. Also I work about 90km outside of city limits and radionl signal isnt always pumping rhe clearest that far from the transmitter.Plus the app gives easy access for viewing the current song playing or for sifting the days playlist to see the name of a song or artist that I never heard before and want to hear again or listen to more of the artists material later ect...
Hands down, the best radio station anywhere. Commercial-free, listener-supported with a wide variety of musical genres, artists, themes & DJ's like no other. Songs never repeat & you won't here the same top 40 or 100 pop songs over & over & over again, ad nauseum! Musical tastes for every discerning musicophile & new & upcoming musicians from Alberta, Canada & around the world whom you likely would not hear or even know about if it wasn't for the spirit of ckua radio!!
Cant believe this app has not been fixed yet, still stops continuously. How can you enjoy any songs when it keeps stopping. This has been going on for over a year. Please get it fixed!
Love CKUA and having an app but it randomly crashes all of the time..I ha r to click play on average once every 10 min. Please try to fix!!
I love CKUA and listen almost exclusively using the app. I find I'm listening much less with the frequent signal drop issues. Please find a way to get this fixed.
Absolutely love the station, listen every single day but ever since the new update, the app cuts off the feed all the time
I love ckua, but the app keeps turning off, after a period of a few second to 15 minutes. That won't do at all
Keeps closing on my Pixel 4a. Then I uninstall it and reinstall it. Then it opens once or twice and quits. Same over and over
Also avid listener. Great station! ♥️ Can't say enough about your extraordinary programming. Thank you. P.S. please fix app.🙏
Crashes frequently on my note8 so uninstalled. I use so web feed instead.
Messrs with audio when on hold and listening to Spotify. Please fix.
Pretty basic radio app, doesn't have Chromecast support
Maybe corporate radio sabotaged a great station with a not so great app.
All the 1 star reviews are boomers who do not know how to grant the app permission, and their phone puts the app to sleep and are too technologically impaired to figure it out, so they blame the app.
Great new music and old music too.
Great app. Wish there was a sleep timer option!
Best radio station!
My family and I have been monthly donors since the earlys, like when Stan Rogers played Blackfalds... Best story: I made a donation that was not satisfactory to some fiesty elderly English lady. I called back and spoke with a 'supervisor' and he backed his volunteer "Oh that was old Mrs. So-and-so...". Loyalty to his community. I was impressed and listened ever since. How do I increase our monthly donation?
It's on all day every day couldn't imagine any other way
Hands down best radio in the GALAXY
With this app CKUA's exemplary programming is always available.
My direct mobile connection to CKUA. Can't ask for more.
Great music and host
love this station
BEST STATION EVER!!!
Simply the best
Great Love it
Update: Permissions are still absurd. What are you doing with our data, CKUA?Fixed a bunch of stuff, working much better now. Thank you for that! Still experiencing random crashes 1-2 times a day. One other minor niggle: unlike every other music app, this cannot be shut off via the buttons on my headset or BT speaker. It stops for a few secs and then just keeps playing. Same when headphones or speakers are disconnected.
Actually very surprised how polished this app is. Simple and effective. Very happy to have my favourite radio station with me wherever I go.
great radio station, decent app that does the job. broadcast does intermittently drop out from time to time without much rhyme or reason. one thing that concerns me is the permissions, they seem really excessive, and disabling any of them means you can't even listen. Again, seems a bit excessive.
