Rarely works. Always stops after 5-10 minutes.
About as good as you could expect. Good access to current streams, with skip back in case you miss something they say on air. Good list of NPR podcasts too, including some that aren't available outside of NPR licensed apps. Could use some improvements in how it handles unstable wifi.
Programs run smoothly, for the most part. There is some stuttering. But I keep getting messages that the app has stopped working when, obviously, it hasn't.
App sets up and plays easily, plays for a few minutes, then seems to lose connection for about 5 or 6 seconds every other minute. Stream seems to stop, then start up regularly.
buffering drops several seconds of audio several times a minute. buffeting working ok. still taking too long to start.
Fairly Good. There are a lot of clicks to get in. It does cut out a lot. But it is pretty consistent.
Too many clicks to get to the radio station. Cuts in and out a lot but at least it comes back on it own
Works well. I use it for listening live. I would like it better if I could hide everything rxcept the live stream.
Very good, easy to navigate between stations and features.
Love the content, but app shuts down randomly and frequently. Very annoying!
I love NPR. I live in the mountains,and do not receive antenna signal for t.v. so l receive all of my daily news on this station. Also enjoy all of the other programs that you offer.
Great source of fact based information without the hype and hysteria of other local stations. The diverse subjects provide a glimpse of topics that are otherwise not covered on radio
Stops all the time.
Just not that great it works just fine but it's kind of lame. Might be nice if you could opt out of the begging twice a year
Lots of good articles. Especially, when I couldn't hear the radio.
Great, unobtrusive ad once on audio stream startup, pretty good ui, reliable app
I enjoy mobile listening, but this app cuts in and out wayyyyy more than any other app I use.
Sound cuts out often for 30 seconds then comes back
Periodically the app shuts down or pauses for about 5 seconds
Pauses once in a while during streaming
Constantly drops out. Super annoying.
Love getting the shows I've missed whenever I want them!
Mainline and balanced reporting with solid sources
Amazing amount of free information. Second only to Wikipedia.
