When trying to access WNIS app to listen to Clay and Buck, get an overpowering video game add that is impossible to get rid of. Cannot find the x to delete the add. I had to delete the app and download it again in order to access the WNIS app, however after a couple of days the same issue occurred. Had to download and reinstall the app again.

This is a terrible app. Whenever you open it there are noisy ads for video games. You have to search for the X to close it and if you don’t do it just right you get redirected to get the game. Do you have 12 year olds running the app? BTW, don’t the ads on the radio take precedence? I gave it 2 stars because WNIS is great once you get past the ads.

Updates are so ad centric that the app loads extremely slow; struggles to play radio feed and drops sound regardless of Wi-Fi strength, cell signal or buffering settings. It used to work really well but recently core function has taken a back seat to ads. I’m pulling out the old AM radio for the office.
