WFMU Official App (Woof Moo)

WFMU

About this app

This is the new official app for listening to WFMU, an independent freeform radio station based in New Jersey. This app is the updated version of the previous unofficial "Woof-Moo" app. The old app previously known as "WFMU (Official)" has now been retired, and this version of the Woof Moo app is the replacement for it.

Check out the weekly schedules, listen live to a selection of streams, or catch up on the recently archived episodes. Queue episodes for playback, or download episodes to listen back offline. You can also listen via your Chromecast device, or in your car with Android Auto.

This app contains no adverts or tracking. Analytics functions are available, but are unused at the time of writing. You can disable this completely at any time, and will be presented with this option when the app is first opened.

Ratings and reviews

Fantastic app for a station that deserves one. I use it all the time. I'm not entirely sure I understand how the control wheel works when playing archived episodes, but that's a quibble. (Maybe the problem is the user, not the app.) Love that I can read comments while listening. I haven't used the time stretching feature yet but that day might come.

I'm very, very happy this app exists as it presents you with so much info and wfmu is great. You can bookmark favourite tracks and shows, easily find archived shows etc... Lately though it has started crashing upon start up. I don't know if it's because my device is old and unsupported or whatever. I'm bummed. I give the app 4 stars because some of the design choices are a little overly complex and hard to wrap your head around.

I decided that 1 star might be unfair. So middle of the road 3 stars. I am sure this interface made sense to the guy who wrote it, but can we get some damned docs? Maybe a link in the program to tutorials? I have used computers since '79 and programmed since '81. I don't get this app. Not at all.
