Review summary

Users praise WCBE's app for a reliable live stream, an easy-to-use interface, and rich now-playing features like current song with album artwork and quick access to lyrics or iTunes. The app also offers visible playlists and strong portability, letting listeners enjoy WCBE at work or via CarPlay. A single reviewer notes frequent station IDs breaking into songs, but this isn’t echoed broadly. Overall, the app is viewed as a strong, convenient companion to the WCBE listening experience.

Pros

High-quality, reliable live stream with engaging content
Simple, easy-to-use interface
Real-time now-playing info with album artwork and quick actions (lyrics, iTunes)
Playlist/now-playing visibility to know what’s on air
Great portability: listen anywhere (work, CarPlay) and access outside a radio

2026-07-09	Ro*****	I love the app but the new update won’t play the live feed. I’ll give 5 stars for the old app and hope the problem gets fixed. Update: it wasn’t the app, it was a steaming problem. Love the app for traveling outside of Columbus.
