Love KUT
I like having a short cut to stream KUT. Listening to KUT keeps me up on national and local news, great programming and interviews, too. Keeps me company on morning hikes and gets my day started off right.
KUT 90.5 Austin’s NPR Station
Published by: THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN
Description
No other Austin media brings you national and local news like KUT 90.5 FM. KUT is more than just Austin’s NPR Station. Our listeners can tune in 24 hours a day for news and information from NPR, PRI, the BBC and our own newsroom. Staples like Morning Edition and All Things Considered from National Public Radio, plus programs like The World from Public Radio International and BBC News Hour bring global perspectives, and award-winning local news from KUT's reporters, are all in the palm of your hand. Download, tune in, and listen wherever you may be.
In this new version you can read KUT news stories from within the app, as well as top stories from NPR and the Texas Standard. You can now also receive important news alerts and notifications from the KUT newsroom--we promise not to spam you with too many messages, we'll just alert you when there's important information to share with our audience. You can always opt to turn this off! We've also included access to many of our podcasts episodes. Once you've found your new favorite, just subscribe to it on your preferred podcast app.
The KUT app provides an all digital, efficient stream using the AAC+ codec. It sounds great on all platforms, devices, radios and over cellular. You can of course listen to KUT when you're traveling outside of Austin, and even the country, to stay connected to home. Tap in some headphones or plug your phone and have a listen!
If you're also a fan of KUTX -- The Austin Music Experience, please download the separate version of that app as well and tune in for music discovery journey. The KUTX app has the current playlist and the same great audio. We've separated the apps so we can bring better and different features to each in the future.
KUT 90.5 FM is a public radio station from The University of Texas.

Shortcomingsy
I do so wish this app to work correctly. It constantly drops out. Constantly…
Convenient Access to KUT Programming
This is the best way to access a broad range of KUT Programming
Needs work.
Klugey and has issues, likely on the back end.
KUT = Awesome, app = meh
The app works but that is about all I can say about it
My NPR fix on the go
Recently moved to Austin. Had to load this app on my phone immediately to maintain my NPR fix. Not disappointed.
Great station
Good app convenient way to get a good news station.
You are the worst Burr
This app has got to go back and get reworked. There’s a bug between AirPods and live streaming though the app. The constant ad playing for the safe workplace company et al makes KUT feel like any other pre-recorded FM station on a commercial format. The app loses its place regularly throughout playback so you get those 30 sec replays constantly. Suggestions I don’t have- I’m using npr1 and the old npr app that has a lot less ads or the website directly but it still seems dumb that KUT’s app is so bad
Love using this app
Works well
Two Star App for a Five Star Station
KUT Radio deserves better! I listen to a number of regional public radio stations, many by using that station’s app. Most all function properly. Many appear on screen much like the KUT app. My major complaint is that the KUT feed occasionally just instantly switches back ten seconds to a minute or more and continues playing. That’s rather annoying. Although more annoying but less common is for the app to stop and pause the device. My intervention is then required to restart the app. Listening to the opening promos repeatedly does get boring. I understand the need to promote programs as well as to recognize those who provide resources to make KUT possible. I have NO problem with the opening material. Just seems maybe once per listening session would be enough. Of course, a sorry app in no way keeps KUT from being among the best of public radio stations I listen to. Sustaining member 15+ years
