93.3 WMMR

It stopped playing in the background on November 18 2023.

With the update I can no longer pause the app using my AirPods. I’ve reset and re synced AirPods and problem still exists. I also checked other music apps and the problem only exists with this app. I have to remove AirPods to communicate with people when I’m listening to your app. I might as well move on to another app that works correctly. Please resolve this issue as I live the station and it’s personalities and music but this is a real hassle.

I deeply enjoy the station but this app is a bit annoying to use. Any notification stops the app. Texts, email, FB notifications, locking the screen. Full Stops playing and then doesn’t play again and have to wait for it to load again most times it will not load forcing you to have to close the app re open and hit play again. Then you go to lock the screen have to hit play Again. I just want to work, listen and not have to touch my phone every time I get a notification.

Double commercials when initial streaming starts, locking you screen when starting the stream stops the stream, commercials overlapping live stream and/or cuts off live stream, lots a glitches and streaming quality is poor, mediocre at best. Please fix!!

The new update now has this app use more battery in the background than actively watching YouTube for 3 hours. May 2023 update, still the absolute worst, and now the station itself has become a cesspool. If you want horrible right wing commercials, you can have that now too.

Suddenly my battery drains down to 1% within a few hours, even when not streaming! Makes me wonder what they (app) is tracking that it would drain my battery even when not using?!?! Very bad; wish I never updated, wish I could go back to previous version!

This upgrade is terrible. It’s nice that I can customize the home page, I guess. But I didn’t need to customize it until now, because you added a bunch of irrelevant filler to it. (Other stations? Why? The app is for WMMR.) You’ve taken away the descriptions of the podcasts, so unless I know the exact date that something or someone was on, I can’t find it again. You’ve removed the highlights (I just went looking for Kathy’s Fall Activities. They’re nowhere to be found on the whole app). You also took away the “table of contents” screen when a podcast is playing. I don’t know what it’s really called, but the screen used to allow you to start and stop the podcast at certain labeled sections. That’s gone now. If your goal was to make the app more cumbersome, nice job! You did it. I have no idea if the connectivity has improved, because I’m listening through the web page now. Please don’t “improve” that the way you did the app.

App must be open with screen on to work. Can’t do anything else with phone if you want to hear live broadcast. Also music info not displayed now whereas it was before

I love this app but am giving it only 2 stars because it’s not compatible with Apple watches and I don’t bring my phone on runs or in the gym.

I want to give a 5 star rating and hope I can come back to change it but for now… Since the app change, I don’t see the transmitted titles & artist info to songs. The commercials are area based to wherever you are so it cuts off the regular live-streamed programs! I hate that the commercials cuts off the DJs before and after heading into commercials. I like how simple the app format was before the new change when it was 93.3 WMMR that I could find the categories like station DJs, events/concerts, Philly region events the radio station was involved with… The previous interface was great. I’ve been using the livestream app and website since I first discovered it back in 2006! I am a iPhone user. The app has been in pretty good running condition through all the changes. I know it went through 2 down periods but the tech seemed to have improved. I don’t listen to other Beasley stations. I just listen to 93.3 WMMR!
