I installed and could see partiak home page, but couldn't open beyond that to use it. Very disappointing!! Really wanted to use it with my pixel 2 phone as I'd been using the npr app previously Update 9/5.2021. I've been trying to use it with the Android phone over the past 6 months. Since the most recent update and changes at the station it's become more glitchy than ever. Up until now I was happy that at least I connect to it when I was on Wi-Fi. Now even that is difficult and unreliable
Seems like it is pausing/stalling/and or glitching more than it did when I first downloaded it. It makes me crazy. Not sure if I could do something on my end that I haven't tried already. I love KMUW & NPR so I keep trying to give it one last shot but one of these days I'm gonna have to delete this finally to save me from smashing my phone because I'm in the shower with my wet hands and can't unlock my phone fast enough to just press stop so I don't listen to my stream fritz then skip my story.
App works pretty well (dependant upon signal strength to device). Some instances of buffering, but overall very usable for me. Don't care for the promotional precursor to the app startup ( the Range, etc.) Would rather listen to content as opposed to "advertisements". Okay otherwise.
Fantastic! Great to be able to get to the live broadcast so much easier than in the NPR One app. The donation function needs work. I was trying to donate under the wire to take advantage of matching funds but it took too long to load the web page, do 7 screens of the "I'm not a robot" junk, etc. that I missed the matching funds by 1 minute. 😫
Wish the donate button didn't just take you to the same clunky website that doesn't allow auto fill. Also, sometimes when I pause live stream, it will randomly start playing, which is highly annoying.
Same problem with every NPR local station app: the app stops running unless I leave the screen on. This runs down my battery and it means I can't put my phone in my pocket because the touch screen is still active. If I turn the screen off the app will run maybe 2 or 3 minutes and then quit
I used it everyday until it started randomly stopping, as others have noted. Today I uninstalled and reinstalled, and 30 minutes in to listening to my Saturday shows, it hasn't stopped playing. UPDATE, several hours in and no hiccups.
lt simply does not respond or if it does finally open, I don't have any features as mentioned. I usually give up, close it, and go to their page to listen. I was really excited about this app so I'm bummed its not working well.
The sound is good, but it turns off every 10 minutes and that is very frustrating! Unless I have it on my charger then it plays straight through.
I love this app! I can listen to KMUW anywhere when you cannot get it by radio. If you miss a show or part of a story they have the podcast it originated from on the app. Listen anytime👍
I love using this app but it's constantly pausing/stopping audio and I've tried changing settings on my phone to avoid it, but it happens almost constantly. ☹️
Love this app! downloaded on my Galaxy and my iPad. One more super convenient way to listen to my favorite local radio and hear some of my favorite NPR programs! Oh.... and you can set up your donations to support KMUW through the app as well!
Freezes and crashes every time the app is used. Sometimes it does not start. Last update did nothing but make it worse.
App makes it very convenient to access KMUW online. I've had no problems so far. KMUW is almost the only radio station I listen to.
Great Integration. The app lets you live stream, listen to recorded content, read news, leave audio feedback and messages, and let's you contact the station myriad ways.
Love! Expect often it randomly decides to just stop playing and I have to restart my phone to fix.
Crashes a lot, but I love having access as I am out of the broadcast area 95% of the time.
Love the news, all things considered, car talk, wait wait dont tell me, snap judgement, almost all programs. Easy to use.
App never works. It freezes then crashes. Even after updating.
has good speed, response time and an intuitive user interface
Smooth app. One of the best and highly community involved public radio stations.
Wherever I am this app does a great job keeping me connected to my home NPR station. If only it would remember that I've already rated it.
App plays for 5 to 15 minutes and then pauses. This is annoying!
Good app but my listen live is always doing and I have to refresh it constantly, it seems
l love the up at work. I don't have good reception and That's helpful I won't miss anything.
Love KMUW. The app is very easy to use and works great!
Love the app to stream live and episodes of shows on demand.
I love the KMUW app. Can't think of anything I'd add or change!
never even started. deleted after repeated crashes.
This App keeps buffering and has to be reopened several times per hour during most programs. The station is great but the constant interruptions need to be fixed.
