User Reviews

Reviewers praise MPR Radio for quality content and helpful MN-focused news and weather, plus the ability to stream daily while traveling. However, recurring issues dominate: the app is often unstable, with crashes, freezes, and splash screen hangs; UI is hampered by oversized text and hard-to-find playback controls; CarPlay/Maps integration can break; and performance worsens after iOS updates on newer devices. Overall, strong content value but reliability and usability need improvement.
Pros
  • Rich, varied content including MPR/NPR streams, news, and music variety
  • Helpful for travelers and those away from home to stay connected with MN and global news
  • Daily streaming of MPR content and curated streams
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and streaming interruptions (crashes, freezes, drops)
  • App sometimes fails to load or gets stuck on a white splash screen
  • UI issues due to oversized fonts and hard-to-see controls
  • CarPlay/Apple Maps integration breaks when Maps is active
  • Performance worsens after iOS updates on newer devices (e.g., iOS 17.4.1, iPhone 15)

You absolutely destroyed your app. I don’t want to download 4 different apps to switch between all your streams. Quickest delete of my life.

The new app won’t work when Apple Car Play has the Apple Map active. If you only have the app active on apple care play it’ll work but once you want to use a map, the app stops.

Can’t open App because font overflow - too big text and can’t see select buttons as page is too big for screen. Your “support” link on App Store cannot be opened in safari (per safari ). Pretty much a cluster, guys. Would you mind fixing it all because I count on that content. Thanks. Joseph Mn
