98.5 The Sports Hub 12+

Absolutely horrendous. Playback stops every 2 or 3 minutes. For some reason, it will not resume by simply pushing play. You must close the app and restart it to get it to play again, only to repeat the process again in a few minutes. This was one of the biggest issues with the old app, and it’s worse with this one. I’ve been waiting for years for this update and now I wish they just left it alone. Ok a similar note. The sports hub transition to their new studio has brought many technical issues on the terrestrial radio end as well. Every single day for months have brought tech issues. Beasley media group..step your game up or sell the station. This is not even close to good enough.

Would love to see a dedicated app for the Apple Watch for listening to the Live games - Hockey, Basketball, Baseball and Football like you have for the iPhone/iPad. So like if we just want to listen to the game or talk at the station about the local sports, we can while doing our work if we can’t be on our phones at work.

I could listen to you guys all day, but the app on the iPhone bugs out and stops or just disconnects after a while listening to it. I am on Wi-Fi and my headphones still have wireless power, but no way to reconnect. A watch app support would be really helpful like for this exact situation. Then when I close out of the app and click the app to open, the app responses, but there is a red triangle with a exclamation mark over the download/stations slide up screen - after half and hour or 20 minutes or so it just stops with nothing else to do, but to manually close it and restart the app. This happens consecutively and at the wrong times, like when there is an actual live game and you get really frustrated and have to either close and open the app again Or have to manually delete the app and reinstall the app.

***BIG EDIT***:

They listened and totally redesigned the interface and ability to listen to old podcasts easier. Thank you!!!! From 1 to 5 stars.

I agree with the other user’s review, the fact podcasts are grouped together is horrible from a user perspective. I used to be able to group shows towards the top that I listened to. Now I have to scroll through ALL podcasts for the day if I want to listen to the morning/early afternoon shows. It also limits the amount of previous streams we can access on a per-show basis due to the grouping. As a long time listener, I’ve dealt with the extra ads and laggy app but this is almost unusable now.
