User Reviews

Reviewers primarily criticize the iOS redesign of MPR News for a poor user experience. The top recurring issues are audio management (no pause during incoming calls and when switching apps, causing overlap), a confusing, over-tapped UI that hampers navigation and readability, problematic CarPlay behavior, and a disrupted content layout that makes locating and listening to shows difficult. There is little consensus on positive app features beyond loyalty to MPR News itself.
Pros
Cons
  • Audio does not pause for incoming calls and often continues during calls, interrupting conversations.
  • Audio does not pause when switching to other apps or when other apps are playing audio, causing overlapping sound.
  • The redesign/UI is confusing and requires many taps, making navigation and reading hard.
  • CarPlay integration is flaky; audio stops in CarPlay when switching to a navigation app.
  • Shows/navigation structure changed (users ask 'Where did the shows go?'), making it hard to locate or listen to content.

Since when did our Minnesota Public Radio get so bias? Always a slant, just give Minnesotans the news.
