The Current Music Reviews

Sounds great, try it out

I love The Current, and the app works great! I was just listening for hours with AirPods and the sound quality was good, with no drop outs.

Like the current don’t like the app

The app disconnects on a regular basis, so you have to restart your phone to get it to work again very frustrating. Of course this happens during one of your favorite songs.

Garbage

Hardly ever works. Waste a lot of time attempting to stream this station. Gonna listen to records instead

Terrible Audio Quality

Remember 64kbps MP3s, RealPlayer, or AM radio? That’s what this sounds like. The content, the DJs, the playlist — none of it matters if it sounds like junk. We’re all surrounded by devices capable of high-quality audio everywhere, from headphones to home stereos, even to smart home voice assistants. This sounds awful, MPR. Your listeners deserve better.

I haven’t been able to use the app in moths

is this app still working? I haven’t had access to it in months. I love listening and can stream, but prefer the app.

V1.3.2 EXTREME Battery Drain

I love The Current, but the latest version 1.3.2 has some serious battery drain issues. The app ate 53% of my battery in 27 minutes of standby while playing music. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max. Stick with the web-based stream until they fix this issue.

Great station/ lame app

App just crashes and need to restart stream.

Crashes

I open the app, tap the main Current channel, then the app crashes. Then the app crashes every time I try open it again. What gives? I could stream from Apple Music but the app tells me what song is playing and I love using it up to this point. I’ll update my review if this ever gets fixed

App keeps crashing

You click on the app, it looks like it’s going to open, then disappears. Keeps occurring despite deleting then resetting the app. Quite irritating.

Constant buffering

The app is constantly buffering and playing ads on a loop. Every time the music is interrupted, ads play and I can barely get through a full song set in the mornings due to the ads cutting in at the most random times. I’m switching back to only listening on my car radio.
