Ratings and reviews

Wonderful station playing classical music with the only advertisements being spoken ones by the announcers, very "classy". Been listening to them for years, recently tried using their app and it was terrible, it constantly stops playing and demands that I try to sign in before playing music and sometimes I can't seem to get around that screen either, the app is a mess, listen to this great station another way.

Love the station, the app not so much. The app is clunky. For example, you go to live streaming which brings up the play screen and you start to play the stream. Then you get out from the app while the music keeps playing, as it should. But when you go back to the app it brings you back to the home screen rather than the live streaming page and even this is quite slow. It also doesn't seem to correctly refresh the media notification in Android 13 to display what is being played.

I love listening to WFMT, especially in the mornings and before bed. However, the app is so buggy and crashes very often. The stream cuts off randomly every 5-10 minutes, or so, and I need to restart the app. This is not how I want to be enjoying music. Please fix these bugs! Thanks.
