User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's high-quality content, diverse programming, and useful podcast features. However, many face frustrating issues such as playback interruptions, slow loading times, and intrusive ads mid-story. While the content and station are well-regarded, the app's instability, unintuitive interface, and erratic playback behavior diminish the listening experience for many users.

Pros

High quality and diverse programming with great shows and music streams such as jazz and blues.
Podcast feature allows catching up on shows conveniently, especially appreciated during sleep-in times.
Chromecast support available, enhancing usability on multiple devices.
Content is well-liked and considered a valuable community resource for news and music.
Playlist and program host information available, giving users song and artist details.

Cons

App experience is often clunky and unintuitive, requiring multiple attempts to start playback.
Playback frequently cuts out or stops unexpectedly, sometimes requiring a restart or reopening of the app.
Ads play in the middle of programming, interrupting stories and causing loss of content continuity.
App has issues with buffering and slow start times, especially when switching networks or using certain devices.
Closing or pausing the app does not always stop playback, with the app sometimes restarting on its own.

Recent reviews

Works much better now. It no longer shuts off every few minutes--yay! It does, however, take a while to load and start playing after I press the start arrow. All in all, the app is vastly improved compared to before and is actually a pleasure to listen to now.

Great app! Everything appears to be working great again. The podcast feature is especially nice when you sleep in and really want to hear Morning Edition. Stability and battery issues appear to be a thing of the past. And finally we have Chromecast so five stars.
