## Review summary

WTMD 89.7's app is loved for its music variety, local programming, and easy access to playlists, track info, and in-app donations. The interface is clean, the two-station option is handy, and cross-device use (iPad, Mac, CarPlay) is a plus. Recurring complaints center on performance: slow load times, playlists not updating, and intermittent playback or launch problems, plus early CarPlay inconsistencies. The app has improved over time, but reliability during updates remains the key opportunity for enhancement, even as many listeners praise the station.

### Pros

- Excellent music variety and strong local programming with discovery of performers.
- Intuitive, uncluttered interface with playlists/artist info and in-app donation capability.
- Cross-device usability (iPad, Mac, iPhone) and CarPlay support now available.
- Thoughtful design for a nonprofit station, including two station options and easy access to content.

### Cons

- Slow loading times and playlists failing to update in newer versions.
- Playback can stop randomly or require restarts, especially in cars.
- Occasional launch failures or stuck loading on iPhone.
- CarPlay support was inconsistent in earlier updates (improved later).
