App headlines are incomplete requiring me to open each article to find out what the article is about, very annoying. No stars if I could. Uninstalled.
App keeps cutting out when my screen turns off. It's the only app that does it, so I know it's not my settings. What ever you guys did, it was working great now it's turning off when my screen closes. This is the only app that I have issues like this. I checked and the app is not set to sleep
For being an AM radio station it plays very well. About as good as an FM radio station. They share all the local news, sports scores and has alot of good cast members who speak. Even works in hard cell service areas, BUT like most apps it can use alot of data when out of Wi-Fi range. No complaints though!
You guys are always on top of y'all's game.
What is this app ? I NEVER downloaded this.
Always on point
Like everyone says, the broadcast will cut out intermittently sometimes you have to press play again to get it going. Also I toggle off the auto play and push notifications and the app itself will toggle them back on. So everytime I auto connect to a bluetooth device WBAL starts playing on it's own. The app plays when you want it off and cuts off when you want it on. I'm uninstalling.
On-demand audio cuts out, when screen times out.
Audio frequently cuts out and I must hit PLAY again. Sometimes it shows that it's still streaming,but others it just stops. I would gladly give this app 5 stars if they could remedy this problem. Also a much larger play button would be nice so it would be easier to press while driving.
Use the app to wake up in the morning as WBAL radio reception is bad where I live. The most annoying issue is that it cuts off or doesn't come on which doesn't make for the most reliable alarm clock.
Works fine most of the time, but drops out too often.
Works perfectly fine, I'm glad I've ignored the haters reviews.
Updated information
This is a horrible app the radio part never works and as an Orioles fan not living in Baltimore it's a severe let down.
It crashes frequently. Can't stream audio when device scree blanks.
Buffers forever (even though I'm getting >40Mbps speeds) and still doesn't stream. Now i remember why i Uninstalled it before
This App crashed all the time. Don't waste your time downloading.
Crashes often
This app is a piece of junk, .... it crashes so much I stopped using it ... went to a third party to stream the broadcast content. It didn't work with my Samsung S4 and doesn't work with my new Note 5. " Site says... " This app is compatible with all devices" ... NOT MINE
Put that in the What's New. Low rating provided for this version for insufficient documentation.
I have noticed that if the app is no working it is because the stream is down at the source. No streaming from their website on PC as well.
Yes, "breaking news" is important, but frankly I don't want to receive breaking news alerts randomly...especially to have my phone come to life and "ring" when there is breaking news while I am asleep in bed. I would give it 5 stars otherwise. I wrote to tech support, but if they say I can't turn that off, I will uninstall.
App is ok. I had been relying on the alarm function, however it no longer works. Would be nice if the alarm was more reliable.
