Ratings and Reviews
On your next Update could you please do some basic major BUG FIXES.
This is the most frustrating and disappointing App I have ever tried to use. Having to register now may be one thing. Another is why it continues to be so difficult for this App to get and keep a connection to a live WLS broadcast.
I love the “Po Po Report” but listening to their show on Saturday evening is impossible if I’m not near a radio. This App was to be the answer but I found that the initial connection takes far too long and then it’s almost impossible to stay connected. This evening may have been my last attempt to use this App. The “Po Po Report” was on the radio and this App. Establishing a connection on the App was difficult and once connected continuous advertisements, including numerous repeats of the same add, played while the actual show was barely on. To my amazement, the radio had been playing the “Po Po Report” for some time while this App was playing more and more Adds. Was this a joke? (I’m thankful that this show is available as a Podcast.)
So annoying,
Love WLS and the content provided, however, it's rare that I can stay connected to the app for more than a half an hour without it opening the App Store, which stops the audio from playing. I have to reload it only to sit through video ads for a few minutes, in hopes that it will load through and play the content without opening the App Store on me again. Usually I fight this loop long enough that I'm already at work by the time it starts streaming the actual content I'm trying to listen to.
Other issues with with this app are it shuts itself down periodically for no reason and every time I start the app, it starts with the volume turned down turn about 25%, regardless of what I had it set at prior or what the volume is set at on my phone itself.
It never used to be this bad, so a big shout out to the genius that broke it. I hope the payoff from the ads is worth the drop in ratings on the app and decrease in users of the app
Needs a lot of work
If you just want to stream the station, get TuneIn radio- more reliable and it works in the background. I got this app for the podcasts. It would be nice if they loaded entire shows instead of the 7 minute clips they pick, but that's probably the station's fault. You used to be able to listen to podcasts in the background, but that doesn't work anymore. You now have to listen to them with the program consuming all of the phones function, which I can deal with. The problem is that you constantly lose the feed, even with wifi, and since the app doesn't have a fast forward feature, you need to start the podcast all over.
There's a lot of potential here and if WLS was serious about this app, they could make it much better. If they did that, I'd bet people would pay for it.
