    Bugs again
    This latest version of the app seems to crash frequently.

    Beta at best
    Streaming constantly shuts down. Embarrassing that I contribute to an organization that releases such crap. Unfortunately my local MPR translator station shuts down motRe frequently than the app.

    App
    Is it just me or do other people have to constantly delete and reinstall the app? It’s gotten to be most of the time when I exit the app and then go back in later it won’t connect and I have to delete and reinstall the app to get it to play. This has been going on for a long time and it’s really frustrating! Show more

    Doesn’t work
    It simply shows a black screen when I try to open it. The old one worked well.

    New update doesn’t load
    The MPR app always loaded reliably and quickly but this new update just opens to a black screen. Please fix ASAP!

    New version doesn’t even open
    New version only shows blank screen - app doesn’t even open. Other news apps that do work. Why are developers always updating apps to crappier versions no one likes? Show more

    Text doesn’t fit on screen
    On my iPhone 12 mini, the edges of the screws cut off a letter or two. This make the headlines and previews unreadable.

    Scroll, scroll & cut off text
    Main page text chops off letters on both sides on iPhone se(1). No landscape option, but I shouldn’t have to resort to that anyway. As others have said, a lot of scrolling. No way to jump back to top of list. Show more

    Frustrated sustaining member
    Nobody at MPR is listening. As mentioned by many previous reviewers, navigation is horrible. On top of that, stories are often repeated in the list. There is no way changes to this app are tested before release. MPR’s reputation for quality programming is not at all reflected in this app. Somebody dropped the ball. Show more

    Still interrupting programming
    MPR is continuing to interrupt its programming, often in the middle of a sentence, cutting off key information from their stories with additional “commercials”, in addition to the “commercials”. First there is no need for the additional ones, second if you do it for some reason I need to insert these, do so between stories. Show more
  • Jack Girl too, 07.06.2021
    Frustrating
    Why, oh why am I taken back to the top of the list of articles after I finish reading a story? When I am done reading a story I should be brought back to where I was in the list. After starting at the top multiple times I get frustrated and close your app. Show more

    Size matters…
    …when you try to read the front/home page. It’s enlarged so much that it cuts off both sides. Headlines today include accine, atest, peed aka vaccine, latest, speed. There’s no way to resize the page, either. C’mon MPR, we expect more from you. Show more
  • Trails&Nails, 22.05.2021
    Terrible App is making me not read MPR
    I read NPR News daily and always via the app. Or at least I used to. The new app is jerky, too sensitive, and returns to the top after reading each story. I also don’t like that when scrolling it’s just a continuous loop of stories. I’ve been reading much less MPR news specifically because of the horrible changes to the app. I have to question my longstanding sustaining member commitment. Show more

    Small text, jerky scrolling
    A recent update with a design change makes it possible to see more about a story before going into it, but that text is small. Vertical scroll from swiping is jerky, jagged, anything but smooth on my phone. Show more
  • Springtimgrl, 20.04.2021
    Update is a couple steps backwards
    The update does not improve how you can read news stories. The text now does not even entirely fit on my screen. When you finish an article and go back to the main news page, it goes right back to the top of the feed, then you have to scroll down to here you left off....scroll, scroll, scroll. This is really disappointing. Not sure if I will keep reading on this. Show more
  • Ezekiel in MN, 16.04.2021
    NOT an upgrade (4/16/21)
    1. Scrolling now creates a vertigo and nausea-inducing inducing “vibration “ of the text. MAJOR 2. The headlines and intro do not fit within the screen on my iPhone. MAJOR 3. Summaries are lengthy and therefore can see fewer summaries per page. minor Show more
  • Giaoser, 14.03.2021
    Ridiculous navigation and formatting
    Only upside to this app is the content. Scrolling through stories is a pain, opening unwanted stories over 80% of the time. Large blank spaces on either side of stories that cause you to have to again attempt to navigate BACK to where you intend. Who did they hire to make this app?? Ugh. Show more
  • slippy butter, 28.02.2021
    Great app... BUT...
    Great app, does what it is supposed to, BUT the touch sensitivity required to open a story is WAAAAAY too low; just trying to “scroll” will inadvertently cause stories to open. A quick developer tweak would fix the problem... any help with that MPR? Thanks!! Show more
