    Should be better
    I listen while I'm out walking. The annoying "thank you for ...." Pops in every time there is a break in the connection. It's better but the connection is so slow to complete even before I leave my home wifi. Very annoying. Show more

    So, I wasn’t the only one,,
    I’d had the same problem with the broadcasting being cut off or too many station announcement popped up way too often to disrupt the broadcasting. I had contacted WVXU tech person to correct this problem. It got better for a while, but the problem did come back. So, now I totally gave up on to listen to NPR through WVXU, but am listening now through NPR web page which is so much better than WVXU’s. Show more

    Wonderful App!!!!
    So happy that I can keep up with what's happening locally as well as across the world, not to mention all of the interesting shows. So glad I downloaded it!!!

    Station is great
    But the app is finicky, as others can attest. I also use the KQED and BBC apps, and they stream much more consistently. It seems they use less data somehow? WVXU is one of the best NPR stations in the country, so I WOULD appreciate better tech in the app! Show more

    Latest update very buggy
    When I stop or pause the stream, then try to turn it back on, it will very often not reconnect.

    So far so good
    I had deleted a previous version of the app because it kept cutting out, and I had gone to just listening through the mobile site. I decided to give the app another chance, and so far it’s working well. Show more

    Outstanding for both news and music
    I never have a problem during my travels throughout the u.s. and it keeps me updated on both my hometown and national news. Being able to get jazz 24-7 is the biggest plus to me. Show more

    WVXU app is terrible!
    This app stream constantly cuts out when I’m listening. Sometimes the stream will resume on it’s own or it may not. Sometimes it resumes and loops so it sounds like a broken record. I’ve tried may things from deleting app and reinstalling it, and I’ve contacted WVXU (absolutely NOT helpful). Now, I mostly open a different NPR station app Chicago WBEZ and NEVER have a problem with it. I wish I could stream my local NPR station, especially since I’m a sustaining member. Show more

    The radio stream cuts out.
    The radio stream cuts out a lot. Please fix that.

    Radio on the go
    I don’t require much, but it does what it says it does and now I have my NPR with me. I like it!

    Stream skips often
    This app should not be available until it can properly perform its most basic function: streaming audio. Every few minutes it jumps a few seconds and less often stops altogether.

    As expected

    Love the station, app is mediocre.
    I enjoy being able to listen live on the app but have to say that doing so is a bit finicky. It cuts in and out with some regularity. As far as reading goes, I don’t do a lot of it on the app. The articles are really busy looking on the main page. Show more

    Put “Listen Live” at the top
    I don’t want to see all the recorded shows first. And all those icons, of the selection of shows, are distracting. I agree with another reviewer, the app cuts out quite a lot more than I would expect for this point in technology. Show more

    Great content, poor tech
    I enjoy NPR/WVXU but this app cuts out far to often. At first I thought it was my iPhone, so I got a new one and it still happened. Then I thought it was my cell provider, so I got Verizon and it still happened. I thought maybe I should just use it with WiFi, so I did and it still cut out. Sometimes it happens so often I just close the app. I don’t have this problem with other public radio apps. Show more

    The way to stay in touch
    After moving outside the US, WVXU app is an easy and reliable way to get NPR. ... and to chuckle about Cincinnati weather & traffic

    Must-Have App
    The must-have app for people on the go who want to stay informed. The information you need to be an informed citizen, critical for democracy to survive - without BS commercials every three minutes. Show more

    The way radio ought to work!
    Cincinnati Public Radio has a great station going here. It's the way radio ought to be heard. And it's available worldwide now through the app!
