デザートドリフト：ハジュワラゲーム

A working app should be a top priority. The fact that after 3-4 years this app is still not working properly makes me wonder “what the heck am i paying $15/ mo for?”). Face it, for most people this is how we are consuming news during the day, i dont work at a desk like i did in the old days. And i dont want to carry a 2nd device (an FM radio) like i did in the way back days. This app is constantly crashing. It rarely restarts, if it restarts i have to listen to 45 to 90 seconds of commercials AGAIN (maybe 3 x in 5 min, like last week). At which point i bail on the app. for me this app is important because I value the local programming (weather updates, sunshine economy, the news Roundups.) However, most of the other programming over the years is from the national programs, and I can get it on the NPR & PRX related programs up on Sirius (which i also pay for). Maybe soon the days comes, for the first time since college a million years ago, i stop supporting public radio. sorry not sorry. 😣

Wonder where my pledge money goes too! Please revamp it completely for a better experience. Use the one from WFME in Orlando as a model.

Terrible app for a serious listening. It frequently switches from media to station promotions at the crossroads of wifi and network. Very frustrating to a serious listening. Please fix it.

I don’t even know why they bothered making an app. Every article just jumps you to the browser to read it. The app may as well just be a link to the WLRN website. Truly awful.

Keep getting this message as of week of 11/16/20. Don’t know if it’s an update that has caused this. Now i listen to NPR News via the NPR App tapping into a FtMyers station instead. I need my local Miami-Dade news! Please fix it!

The complete redesign and rebuild has NOT led to a better user experience. The previous version worked. No continuously dropped streams , no connection problems. If it did drop out it would resume almost immediately and play from where it dropped off. A joy to listen to and stay updated with factual news. Now not so much. It is work to use this app for the past 2 months and frustrating because being interrupted this much and missing chunks of what you were listening to, when you are absorbed in the news or another program puts it in the unpleasant experience category. Now seriously thinking about finding another similar streaming source. Too bad as I donate often to WLRN and would of course prefer the continuous , uninterrupted service it was in version 1.2. Please let us know you are working on a timely fix.

I definitely like having the app on my iPhone but it is frustrating. Just as others have noted, if a call or alert comes in, the live stream stops and does not resume automatically. I have the app for WNYC in New York and this doesn’t happen. Maybe you could ask them for some tips.

Anytime I receive any notification or alert, the live radio audio pauses and doesn’t resume until manually opening the app, hitting PAUSE and then hitting play again. I had better luck using Safari to stream.

Tried to submit feedback on the app, but wad greeted with the message, “failed to submit, no donation,” even though there was no place to donate. And I already donate to the TV side. Here’s the feedback it wouldn’t accept. 1. You need to add “Streaming over smart device” (e.g., over TuneIn) o the list of how folks listen to the station. 2. Over NPROne, an interrupted stream resumes when the interruption ends. Here, I have to go back into the app and start it up again.

the app freezes and will never reconnect. i have to close it out and try again, and it sometimes takes 2-3 tries before it starts streaming again. this morning i even tried deleting and reinstalling and it still will not play the live stream. (sigh) - sadly, many months later, i still have same problem. PLEASE fix this ! i love wlrn
