Ratings and reviews

Update: tried using it for podcasts, since they claim to be good at it. VERY clumsy interface. also the widget is basically just a 4-position pause button. previously: I'm Surprised this app is so popular. If you use it for live radio, you can't "pause" it like you can on other apps. There's just a stop button (amounts to merely "muting").... If it wasn't for one local station owned by Iheart (therefore unavailable on better apps) I would uninstall.

update: still slow responsiveness upon start up...still. App got slow upon opening, says still playing but it isn't then it refreshes. Why is there a 5 second radio station ad every single time I click it? Can get very annoying especially given the amount of times it just loses feed. Good but needs work. Unexpectedly loses feed. It gets pretty annoying to continue to restart feed (not podcasts) and resync with airpods. Please fix.

If I could find another way to listen to the radio outside of my car, I would. I'm to the point where I'm probably going to start looking for a small boom box or something to use for mobile radio. When I'm using this app, with the screen off, if a notification turns the screen on, like a phone call or wireless charging or anything, the iheart app will keep the screen on with the incessant ads cycling through. Unless I'm charging my phone, between the ads and radio this app will use battery quick
