About WWOZ:
We're a listener-supported, volunteer-programmed radio station in New Orleans. We focus on the rich musical heritage of South Louisiana, as well as other forms of American roots music. We play Jazz, Blues, R&B, Cajun, Zydeco, Funk, Soul, Gospel, Bluegrass, Latin, World, Celtic, and more. We cover many events live in and around the city and across the United States. Every spring, we broadcast live from the famed New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.
About our app:
Our iOS app lets you listen to both of our 24-hour-a-day live audio streams (WWOZ 90.7FM and WWOZ-2). You can also access our Livewire Music Calendar to find out who's playing around town, hear interviews on demand, send us a voice recording, make a donation, and set an alarm so that you can start every day by waking up to WWOZ.
Its the little things in life. Since leaving NOLA in the late 80's I've been trying get OZ wherever I am - at work, in the car, in bed, around the house, in the shower, in the yard, on my bike and on the go. I have pretty well got things covered but now that I have Apple Watch I need for OZ to be available for streaming on iOS devices. With Apple Remote I am able to get this work at home but not on the go. If OZ can make this happen, I am set for life.
So close to being great

WWOZ is a great station and I really want to love this app more than I do, but there are two glaring omissions that I think are holding it back. First, it doesn’t display the name of the title, artist and album of the song that’s playing. I really wish it did. Second, it doesn’t support Apple CarPlay. I’d love to have this app appear in CarPlay as it’s own icon, like IHeartRadio does. I did find that if I start this app on the iPhone first, then connect the phone to my car stereo over Bluetooth, I can stream from the app to the stereo, but to have it behave like a real CarPlay app, along with displaying the titles, would make it perfect.
I use it everyday

Great sound quality, never crashes. What else can you ask for in order to tune into the greatest radio station (at least) on this planet? Best way to access the 2-week archive, too! Wish there was some way to save certain shows for longer than 2 week, though!
Daily Medicine + Thanks for continuing to improve!

I use this app all day every say. The live stream. The archive! Music is always healing, perfect. Makes me feel connected to my favorite place on Earth - New Orleans. My fave DJs are Baba Geno, David Kunian, Leslie Cooper, Soul Sister, Dj Rootzmaster. I hope in time they get the archive accessible in the app. It would also be cool for the shows to have tags for themes the DJs did on an episode (like David Kunian’s Sun Ra shows or Holiday music, etc). Bad thing about the app is the stream stops A LOT. I’m always having to open my phone to restart it or close and open the app again. This happens online too. Hope they find the resources to get it fixed! Thanks for your hard work!
Updated for better performance.
