User Reviews

User reviews show that KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM delivers strong programming and hosts, with many praising the talent and content. However, a large portion of feedback centers on recurring issues: mandatory sign-in and data privacy concerns, frequent crashes and unreliable playback, and heavy advertising that disrupts listening. Additional complaints include startup delays, backgrounding limitations, and occasional battery drain. Overall, the app has valuable content and has seen UI improvements, but reliability, privacy friction, and ad saturation need attention.

Pros

High-quality on-air talent and engaging content.
Cleaner UI and improved usability after recent updates.
App provides access to live radio and podcasts within the app.

Cons

Mandatory login/registration and data privacy concerns; sign-up friction and separate registration for Seattle Sports 710.
Frequent crashes, freezes, and unreliable playback; app stops or won’t open.
Excessive advertising and intrusive ad breaks (long ads, ads on startup, ads during pause).
Reliability issues like long startup times and occasional inability to background audio.
Possible battery drain due to app usage on iPhone.

Recent reviews

I downloaded the app to listen to the Super Bowl in a different state but the app restricts you from listening to the game if your more then 100 miles out from lumen field. Why?? What’s the fricken point of the app? Also you now have creat an account just to use the app. Waste of time bs.

Curley, Joe, Andrew, Aaron and Nate the Great are top notch, best in class reporters, journalists,commentators, traffic reporters, educators, enthusiastic assets to the community, entertaining, hilarious fellas on the airwaves! Honorable mention to Spike O’Neill! Love him since the 90’z!!! What a career he’s had! I sincerely miss Jack Stine. I’m still bitter for some woke decisions that were made for the Spike Show. Jake’s cool, Dori grew him well! I believe letting Jack go was a lame excuse for holding the hand of some pansy who can’t handle fair debate and criticism. Jack’s way too brilliant for those political corporate games anyhow. I endorse Curley for President of the airwaves! XOXOXO
