Description
The NPR app is the best way to listen to stories, shows, and podcasts from NPR and your local public radio station.
It’s public radio made personal.
*A handcrafted experience + your personal radio station*
NPR starts with the latest headlines then moves to a flow of stories that matter - narratives that increase your understanding, create connections, enrich your life and enliven your mind. All thoughtfully curated by hand, every day. Just tap on the big play button in the Home screen, and NPR One gets to know you. Skip what you don't want, or mark a story as interesting. Though your mix is personalized to deliver the stories you want, you’ll still hear the top news of the day and the stories you had no idea would captivate you.
*Connected locally*
Even with the breadth of public radio at your fingertips, you won’t lose touch at home. Local news and podcast episodes are woven seamlessly into your listening experience. Local stories, locally reported, are delivered daily. Community is everything.
*Listen everywhere*
Love to listen on the go? Get the most out of NPR with CarPlay and Apple Watch. Skip, pause, and search at a glance without even touching your phone.
*Features*
* A personalized mix of stories from NPR and local station
* Stream your local radio station from wherever you are
* Easy access to the full catalog of NPR and local station shows and podcasts

Where is the timer???
Please bring back timer feature
Sleep timer option taken out
I love NPR. I liked the sleep timer which they had. They took it out. Now if I fall asleep, it is just annoying to get woken up by some strange music. I do not know what my brain thinks while I am listening.
Erratic
Inconsistent and unreliable. Playback pauses and disconnection from airplay devices. This app seems to work better in environments with fewer airplay or Bluetooth devices. Nonetheless it is finicky and erratic. Apple Music, Spotify and other similar apps are rock solid in the same environments.
Endless adds for NPR+ subscribers
I have been a public radio supporter for more than 30 years. As I live overseas, I rely on this app for my access to NPR and am an NPR+ subscriber. Despite being a subscriber, the app inserts messages asking me to become a subscriber between every 3 or 4 stories. Worse yet, it is the same message, which is driving me to stop using the app and return to listening to live radio. Please stop the fundraising messages for your loyal subscribers!
Where is the hourly 5 min national news update?
Replacing the old NPR app a while ago was imo a mistake; it decreased my engagement but at least I could listen to the hourly 5min news. In this latest version the 5 min national news updates disappeared. I liked NPR and supported it but without the news, I no longer will.
Episodes disappeared
My dad and I are avid listeners of car talk and would always listen to car talk using the npr one app. This had a massive collections of episodes so that we would never run out. We were forced to move over to the “better” npr app that claimed to still have all of “news, podcasts, and shows” that I loved. This was not the case. There are now only 4 episodes of car talk available through NPR. It is a shame that one of the top podcasts on the NPR app was stripped away of all of its episodes and left with four. For the Car Talk fans this is app is not better. It is quite the opposite. Please restore the episodes.
PLEASE give us a dark mode!
I love using the NPR app to read articles, but I tend to read first thing in the morning or late in the evening when it’s dark so the bright white background does not make it the most enjoyable reading experience. PLEASE give us a dark mode!
Keep up with the news events
The App is improving ever day and is worth the listen or read to keep up with our changing communities, states and country.
Great app!
Love the app, but please add a dark mode app icon and make it easier to access the hourly news.
