    Starting and stopping songs with this app with my AirPods
    For some reason, I can’t start or stop this app with my AirPods. It also doesn’t work when connected to a docking station in my mind in a face to the Apple Store and stop feature is not there. Show more

    Bad Privacy Policy
    The privacy terms of the new app are unacceptable. Also, privacy is managed by AirKast, NOT Newark Public Radio, which is listed as the developer. Very misleading. I love wbgo but deleted the app and hope the station will reconsider its vendor. I see I’m not the only one. Show more

    Read their new privacy policy, it's almost Orwellian
    They made a deal with the devil. Their new privacy policy seems to say that they own all the info on your connecting computer. Bye bye WBGO. It was great while it lasted. Show more

    October 2022 upgrade functions poorly
    Easier to listen via the web browser. This new version is clunky, impossible to navigate and won’t work in landscape mode on the iPad. I deleted the app after much frustration. The prior version was simple and effective. Show more

    Not agreeing to Airkast
    Recently became a sustaining member. Not happy with this new Airkast partnership. Loved the old app especially the sleep option. Hope I can find that option when playing thru the website. Please get rid of Airkast. Show more

    Terrible “Update”
    The new app seems more interested in everything but the smooth continuous play of the on air content. I’ve been using the app since it was introduced several years ago and a listener since WBGO was “born”. Emphasis now seems to be on push content and things like social media. Partnership with Airkast is wrong move. I’ve gone back to listening via my browser on iPhone and iPad. Can we get a rollback? Show more

    Jazz Is My Life!
    I usually live streamed via the web and lately encountered some transmissions issues (which they admitted to). So I tried the app on my phone and listened to jazz all night without any problems here in Manila. Just downloaded the app to my iPad. I’m very happy! Show more

    New App October 2022
    How do we access the HD-2 stream from the app? And what’s with this overly long lack of privacy notice?

    New App
    Love the new look.Love WBGO. BUT the “accept” tap/button on the terms page does not work. I’m stuck on your “Privacy Policy” page. The “Cancel” tap works….that’s not good. Tried this 7:30 in the morning and waited until 6:00 in the evening and it still doesn’t work. Guess I’ll delete app. Hope you can fix this soon! Show more

    Invasion of privacy/waiving your rights
    During a time when invasion of privacy has become of great importance, the new included 22 page AirKast terms and user agreement for the WBGO app, casts user privacy to the wind. Users in California are expected to WAIVE their rights. WBGO needs to reevaluate their partnership with AirKast. I feel using this app will seriously invade my privacy. There are several other apps a party can use to access online radio stations. Show more

    October 2022 version is surly
    After working through the new interface of this app, I started listening as I usually do - while reading emails & scrolling websites - when the sound stopped. After I found that I had not accidentally turned it off, I discovered that this app will not connect to WBGO if I go to any browser. The app transmits what WBGO is broadcasting when I read my emails, but stops when I go to any browser. I deleted the app. Show more

    A truly must•have app!
    I first listened to WBGO when i came across it while on a drive from central NJ to Boston area, on the near-NYC portion of the trip. What a godsend! That was some 15 years ago; while my life has certainly changed in that time, i'm Very Happy to once again have WBGO to listen to, particularly without the 5 hour drive ;-) Show more

    The Best Jazz Station
    This is my go to Jazz Station.
  • HRL05, 21.07.2022
    Just the station I was looking for
    I love the mix of music and information available on the app. More than other station apps.

    21st Century tech
    I’ve listened to this station since I was a teenager in NYC and my home stereo is only tuned to it but I don’t play it often since everything is now digital. But I finally loaded the app on my phone and I play it on the go even more now. I just love having it on my phone now and I can Bluetooth it on my speakers outside. Show more

    I love the station
    My regular hotel in NYC always plays WBGO at the cozy lounge. I am missing NYC, and this app is saving me. Great radio station, and handy app. What else could I demand? Show more

    a treasure
    I can't live without WBGO FM! It's fantastic! I consider it a national treasure that the entire world gets to experience. It's truly a privilege for me to be able to tune in everyday. Show more
