User Reviews

Users value GPB's portability and broad NPR content, but reliability and UI problems hinder the experience. Recurrent crashes, playback interruptions, and awkward network transitions are frequently noted, along with a downgraded UI after updates and casting inconsistencies. Overall, the app’s on-the-go access is its strongest asset, but stability and usability improvements are clearly needed.

Pros

Easy to listen to GPB content on the go / anywhere.
Access to a broad library of GPB/NPR shows and news content.
Generally well designed and easy to use when it works.
Easy to sign up as a sustainer through the app.

Cons

Frequent stability issues: crashes, freezes, or pausing that makes you lose your place and requires restarts.
Playback interruptions and long silences: random PSAs, sponsor messages, and station IDs interrupting programming; buffering loops also reported.
UI/navigation changes after updates: harder to search, missing features (e.g., live NPR button), and a sense of downgrading the experience.
Poor handling of network transitions: switching from Wi‑Fi to mobile data often requires reopening; inconsistent Wi‑Fi/5G transfer.
Inconsistent Chromecast/Casting behavior and cross-device issues (TV casting not always available or reliable; Passport content access issues).

Recent reviews

Signed up for GPB and “donated” in order to access Passport programming. Watching on my ipad using gpb.org I can watch but can’t Chromecast to my TV, but on the app I can Chromecast but can’t watch Passport programs. Frustrating isn’t the word….
