Review summary

Users appreciate Yiddish24 for its beautiful, organized design and rich kosher Yiddish content, including innovative video podcasts. It offers a convenient alternative to traditional platforms. However, common issues include lack of offline streaming, disruptive ads with sound playing automatically, playback glitches, and difficulties introduced by recent updates affecting usability and performance. Users hope for improvements such as mute options for ads, offline capability, and better handling of background playback.

Pros

The app offers a beautiful and clean design with organized content, providing a high-quality and clear Yiddish podcast and news experience.
The new video feature allows users to watch podcasts visually, enhancing the user experience beyond audio-only formats.
There is a large amount of diverse Yiddish content including podcasts, interviews, and news readily accessible within the app.
The app is praised as a convenient alternative to other platforms like YouTube and hotline calls, consolidating content in one place for ease of use.
Users appreciate the kosher and high-level quality of the content, making it a trusted source for Heimish news and entertainment.

Cons

The app does not support offline streaming, unlike other similar apps, limiting content access without internet connection.
Advertisements play sound automatically and unexpectedly, which can be disruptive and embarrassing, especially in quiet or public settings; users request a muted ad option with manual sound unmuting.
The app may experience playback issues such as stopping after a short time or continuing to play multiple recordings simultaneously, including after closing the app.
Recent updates have made the app less user-friendly, with a crowded interface and heavy content causing slow performance, especially on slower internet connections.
The app stops playing audio when the screen turns off, which users find inconvenient for regular use.

2024-11-04	Mo*****	Only streaming app that doesn't support offline streaming, even the Yiddishe apps like Kol Haloshon and TorahAnyTime support offline streaming.

2024-09-29	Yo*****	The app is amazing, no need for You Tube anymore to watch kosher enterainment. There is one major issue, the ads, I totally understand you need the ads to keep this going, however, why is the sound not muted when it comes on? I was embarrassed by it a couple of times already when it went off in shul without me even touching my phone just because I didn't shut the app. Please fix this issue please have the sound muted with an option to unmute, this is how all big proffessional companies do it.

2024-03-14	Mo*****	The new update is not user-friendly, too crowded for a smartphone screen, and it's more heavy. Also, I'm not interested in seeing the pictures. Knifes, explosions, injured people, terrorists, brutal seance. Besides, an old problem that the ad's pop-ups have the audio on, which is very disturbing while being between other people. (I think that there are no other apps or websites that do that. )
