User Reviews

Users praise the WHRO Public Media App for its intuitive interface, easy access to NPR/local programming, and high-quality, educational content on-the-go. The app supports live and on-demand listening across locations. However, recurring issues include stability problems, mid-stream audio cutouts, loading challenges on older devices, limited in-app content access, and noticeable battery drain. Improvements in reliability, device compatibility, and content availability would enhance the overall experience.

Frequent stability problems: the app closes or stops unexpectedly.
Audio cuts out mid-stream or experiences interruptions.
Loading issues on older devices (e.g., aging iPads)
Limited content availability: not all WHRO shows are accessible in-app (e.g., Create shows).

Used the app daily for years. Then it just stopped working. I start the broadcast and the listen to the add and then the radio programming never begins. Hope they fix it
