Ratings and reviews

The app only allows a few seconds of live stream to play, then it stops for several seconds, then it will play again for a few seconds. Best to go to the WVPE website and listen to the live stream there. Despite issues with the app, I will always support WVPE as a member listener. Edit 12/31/19 It was fixed with the June update for several months, but is now glitchy again.

2 things I don't like: 1) App "refreshes" too often, even though there is nothing new to display. Then I have to hunt/scroll to get back to where I was. This also happens if I get interrupted mid article. When I get back to it, the article may have scrolled off the list of available articles. 2) Articles appear on the "list" but full article is not yet available, just a short description. Sometimes is viewable by web link, often not. If interested, I have to remember (hours) later "read or not?"

I'm in Benton Harbor and under normal circumstances I usually can't get WVPE on the radio so I have to turn on this app and use Bluetooth to get the station. This app tends to drop signal when my screen protector goes black. When it doesn't go black it tends to drop signal within 5 or 10 minutes of the screen protector going black. Then your reply is to use a smart speaker which I have purchased for $400. More often than not my smart speaker can't find the internet in the same room that my cell
