Ratings and reviews

Shuts off during ads,then you have to hit play button again several times. Someone you have to close and open again, Frustrating. July 2022 app keeps stopping, especially when they go to commercial, weather or traffic. Then you have to click play to start again. Then it stops during a show, click play, repeats about 3 minutes of what you just heard and stops again. If I were an advertiser I would get my money back and cancel. You would think a media company would know how to fix this.

There's a 30 second commercial, THE SAME 30 second VIDEO commercial, EVERY TIME you start the app (or restart when it crashes) which you cannot cancel, click out of or even just reduce the app or else it STARTS OVER! You MUST WATCH this VIDEO ad for a RADIO STATION before you can do anything else with your phone. If they want to play an audio ad before the station loads, fine, but this is completely ridiculous.

The app is pretty reliable I use it to stream the station to Florida. The few things that would be nice to have that works for other streaming apps. When the stream is interrupted by a phone call restart the stream when the call ends. When the stream is paused the controls at the bottom of the screen don't always work to restart the app. In some cases the ad at the bottom of the screen changes the position of the play button which is awkward.
