Excellent

I’m glad to have the ability to listen to over the air radio on my phone, but this app could use some work. A) The news articles on the landing screen should have the option to listen to the story without having to go to the website. B) The bottom of the screen with the play control covers up the link to the Npr website and in some cases it impossible to click to go to the website. The play button at the bottom of the screen seems to be completely useless since you have to go to View the website version in order to listen to the story, and ironically the play button covers up that link Show more

Great for Wisconsinites who are living in other states and want to keep up with home state news and shows.

App requires you to select the network and listen to an ad every time you open it. Doesn’t remember network from last time.

One of the better public radio apps out there. I like that I can listen to all three public radio stations, and also read news articles from both WPR and NPR. Show more

There are only a few fresh WPR news feed stories added each day (at best), but there is plenty of content on the WPR site that could be migrated onto the app. This makes no sense and is a huge miss given how many of us get news on our mobiles now. The NPR app has a great feed, so there is no need for me to get their content from the WPR app. There are only 2 things this app needs to do well: streaming and a story feed. It seems like a part-time intern could do the postings, so… what gives? Show more

Runs much better after I switched from Android to Apple. I also quadrupled my phone memory, so that may have something to do with it too.

Nice mix of written and radio features. I wish there was a state news list that was more robust. Often crashes during morning and evening news. Like, very often.

Works well and easy to use

This app is user friendly and reliable. I use it a lot.

Best source of news I’ve come around!

Incredibly intuitive and focuses on providing you the information.

If an alarm goes off on my phone, either I have to start all over again with the app or at the very least I have to tell it to resume playing. Could do better. Show more

I had a classical music app subscription, but felt like it is the same as donating to my local classical NPR, so that. I always enjoy opening it up and enjoying what playing. And hear new things. Nice. Show more

WPR app work perfectly and the news and information is as informative, interesting and reliable as always.

LOVE the On Demand section. The lineup of WPR and national programs is outstanding. The live streams, though... ?‍♀️. The initial promo/Info spiel at launch can be absurdly long (don’t count on catching all the top-of-the-hour news unless you launch the app well ahead of time), the feed is unreliable, and ID spots sometimes break randomly into programs rather than at the standard breaks. I have superfast WiFi and robust cell service, and my phone is my radio, so the buggy performance is maddening. I have the WNIJ, WBEZ, and WBUR apps on my phone so I can switch when the WPR app lets me down. Show more

Love it

I find the app easy to use, and it works well for me as a way to listen to WPR or just catch up on the news headlines. (I still think radio belongs on the FM and AM bands, but that is another topic altogether.) Show more

This app is easy to navigate and understand. No crashes.
