I’ll just turn on the radio -- Yadontwannaknow, 2025-02-03 ### *---- "Worst App in the App Store" Feels like it was developed by first time app developers. 1. 15 second ad roll every time the app opens. Which is often because it crashes often. 2. Crashes all the time. Used to be able to switch to video when the player stopped streaming. But when you switch back to audio. It crashes. 3. Randomly stops playing. 4. Switch to the podcasts for most of the content but so many ads. Down hill is the only way this app goes. -- BigveggiesNoWhammy, 2024-01-19 ### *---- "Why sign up to listen to the radio?!" I don’t need all fancy functions! -- ericmeiguo, 2023-12-22 ### *---- "Numb skulls require you to register now" I stopped using this app when these privacy leaches decided you must give up your data to hear their content. Imagine turning on your car radio and being forced to share your info? No thanks. -- BMWm3Edward, 2023-11-22 ### *---- "one star is too many" I just wanted to listen to the radio on my phone. I had to sign up, provide a password, and confirm by responding to an email. The email never came. I kept trying. No email. Yes, my email address was correct. What are they trying to protect that they frustrate potential listeners? -- HPowell, 2023-10-03 ### *---- "Too invasive for radio streaming" Used to just download and listen… not a fan of ur nosy requirements -- movin M, 2023-10-03 ### *---- "App crashes constantly" This app used to be great but now only streams like a minute or so and just suddenly stops. Not happy at all. The 710 Sports version crashes too. I can’t listen to Mariners games anymore due to this. Very frustrating! It doesn’t matter how good of a connection you have on WIFI or cellular. I have tried deleting app and reinstalling but doesn’t help. Yes my iPhone is up to date. Please fix! Thanks. BTW in leaving this review, there are no stars to select. -- PianoGuitar Man, 2023-07-25 ### **--- "Registration Hassle" Not happy about the new registration requirement and even more unhappy that a separate registration is required for Seattle Sports 710am. It’s the same company! I’ve deleted the Seattle Sports app and will delete KIRO when I find a different stream for local news. -- Scotty884735, 2023-05-12 ### *---- "App now requires a login, no thanks" A buggy app that plays commercials frequently NOW requires a log in. Not worth the ‘free’. Deleting it right now. -- JayPee56!, 2023-05-08 ### ***-- "App crash problems" When listening to the podcasts, or saved shows, the app crashes ALL the time! I’ve had 4-5 app crashes in a 1 hour episode (Hot Stove Society) regularly in the past month. Love Kiro, love Hot Stove. If the developers could get this resolved I would love to give you a 5. -- aliciac44, 2023-05-07 ### *---- "Privacy Concerns" When the app upgraded I was now required to register, which at that point was not required. When I did click to register the app informed me that I was giving Bonneville permission to use my information. I promptly deleted this app. -- Snifs, 2023-05-04 ### ***-- "Battery drainer- New Issue" Love this app, but for the last few months, it runs my phone battery down FAST. After 15 minutes listening to live radio or podcast, my phone becomes very hot to the touch. Can’t seem to locate a way to report this to the App developers or to mynortheest.com, so leaving a review here. -- little_lady1.0, 2023-04-30 ### *---- "Keep it streaming" I hate how it stops every 30mins i listen to Howard all the time and they keep going maybe old maybe new but I don’t have to wake up and deal with it. -- i think im blocked, 2023-04-15 ### ***** "Love the new update" Much simpler to use, really good changes were made in the latest update. I’ve been using it for podcasts and to listen live when I’m not in my car. -- grape_popsicle_girl, 2023-01-18 ### ***** "Much better" This new version of the app is much cleaner than the previous. The audio stream is stable. I use it to listen to SMN and browse the news. Thank you! -- Chocraisin, 2022-11-11 ### *---- "Latest update kills battery" Latest update causes high battery usage on iPhone. Deleted! -- WashingtonMatt, 2022-11-04 ### *---- "Don’t bother" WTH? Downloaded to listen to the Seahawks. App NEVER opens. Ever. Believe me I didn’t give up. Whole game I kept trying. Nope. Worse than frustrating. 0 stars if I could give it… 🤮 -- Jeffrey iTunes, 2022-10-23 ### *---- "Please redesign this app!" This app continually stops playing and closes out. Doesn’t matter if I’m connected to Wifi or 5G. So frustrating! If you care about your listeners, please invest in quality app devepment. -- Gdorsdi, 2022-06-27 ### *---- "Terrible design…no background listening" Basic miss…have to have open to listen to it. Can’t background it. Unbelievable. -- Shilly 2010, 2022-04-24 ### *---- "Works half the time!" Everytime I want to listen to dori Monson show, this app takes all day to open or work at all! It’s a miracle at all if I get to listen to anything on this terrible app. It dose not matter if your on a good network like Verizon or at home using WIFI it won’t work. It just won’t work. I’m sad now.. please fix it and let me annoy the KIRO radio so I can have a fruitful day.. -- ANDYS JAPANESE AUTO, 2022-04-18 [View all KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Apps Similar to KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM -
