It crashes ALL THE TIME

I’m a long time listener of Jazz24 and have been using the KNKX iOS app for almost twenty-four hours. Now, because the website which my WiFi radio is coupled with, has been withdrawn, the KNKX iOS app is the only way I can continue listening to Jazz24. Last night, the app crashed while I was listening. This afternoon noon, the KNKX app has crashed three times while streaming to my August A-link WiFi Speaker. The app crashes A lot!!! This issue, (bug), needs resolving, as this is extremely annoying. Show more

Just excellent with live programming; really well done!

I don’t donate to NPR because they are left leaning, not the “independent news” they claim. Occasionally, I listen to them to see how they’re twisting news but the app is terrible because it plays for a minute then buffers then plays then buffers. It’s an awful experience. I’m 15 miles from Seattle, this shouldn’t be happening. Show more

Fabulous. Intuitive user interface, unlike another NPR app I downloaded recently. Provides a list of 'recently played'. Low latency between this feed and the live radio feed.

Station's terrific. Using this app on our old iPad results in slow load times and not infrequent crashes. I too prefer the iPad in landscape orientation, which the app doesn't seem to support. Regrettably, I'm back to using the "live radio" feature of the Stitcher app. Show more

App just says "loading" and then eventually crashes. Shame.

I have an iPad with iOS10. I primarily use landscape mode. The KNKX mode displays only in portrait mode. This is aggravating. BTW, I am a longtime sustaining member. Show more

As others have noted, the app crashes. A lot. I hope the change in station ownership means a change in the streaming player. I really want to love this app as much as I love KNKX. And before anyone asks: Yes, I'm a member. I still try to use the app to stream the station since I have reception issues where I live, lots of tall trees which are great for scenery and ambiance, but not so great for radio (or cell, for that matter) reception. So I tend to stream. And since I've been working from home a LOT more lately, I've been streaming a lot more as well. When I'm at my computer (most of the time), I have no problems streaming the station or Jazz24, but the apps both crash. This one much more often than the Jazz24 app. That strikes me as odd, but there you are. I'm using an iPod Touch (5th Gen) with the latest iOS installed. Show more

This version has been nothing but crap and crashes all the time. The old version worked fine. Hey techs! Fix it!

Not sure what the upgrade was for...app worked flawlessly. Now it shuts down on its own or keeps running in the background after I've closed it. With KPLU being sold to KUOW, I'll probably delete the app sooner or later. With the current issues, it's likely to be sooner. Show more

This station is one of the radio stations I have ever heard. They have real dj's & literally the best jazz playlist 24/7, or pretty close. A stupendous example to be judged against all. The best composite & huge library of jazz & knowledge & understanding of it all. Plus they have the news which I appreciate also. A definite 6 star station. Show more

Read the reviews and hoped things have improved. But no - this app does indeed crash frequently and inexplicably. Please fix this one, app wizards. I love KPLU!

Ever since the iOS upgrade, the app will constantly go into "buffering" mode and the music/talking stops. This was my favorite app to listen to KPLU in the morning. Please fix! Show more

Would give 0 stars if I could. Don't waste your time downloading this. When you press play, nothing happens. About 3 seconds later, it says "buffering", but still no music.

New version does not "play nice" on the IPad...have to shut down & re-boot it CONSTANTLY! Liked the old version...much more stable

App no longer works. I only see start up screen then app closes. IOS 7.

I grew up listening to kplu and love how I can stream it through my pocket. I just wish the app had a night timer and the alarm setting worked a little better. Show more

I really like having this app as a quick way to pull up the KPLU feed. As a minimum requirement, this works great. Beyond that, the app doesn't follow Apple's HIG (interface guide). There is a custom volume slider, menu items transition in from the top (except when it inconsistently slides in from the side), and assets are not retina ready. What level of donation is needed to get an update? Show more

It makes me still like I'm back home while I'm away at school!
