## Review summary

Users appreciate the concept of RadioPup as a local radio aggregator with multiple stations, but reliability and UX issues dominate. Recurrent problems include crashes after iOS updates (notably iOS 13), intrusive and loud ads that disrupt listening, frequent buffering and connectivity drops, and non-functional favorites. Some reviews also note limited cross-platform support and casting options. Overall, the app shows promise but suffers from stability, ad-related, and feature issues that affect consistent listening.

### Pros

- The idea of the app is great as a local radio aggregator.
- This app is better than single-station tuner apps.
- Great way to listen to local radio.

### Cons

- Crashes on launch or becomes non-functional after iOS 13 update.
- Ads are loud, repetitive, and often out of sync or interrupt the listening experience.
- Constant buffering and connection drops.
- Favorites tab not populating results and/or cannot save favorites.
- Lack of cross-platform support (no web/Roku/Alexa) and Chromecast casting issues.
