Ratings and reviews

Great streaming app for one of the greatest Classical Music stations in the World. Now with an updated UI. Solid and reliable to boot. Also has a reliable sleep timer so you can rest assured that when you fall asleep to some of the most beautiful music ever, it will not wake you up after an hour (unlike another classical music app I won't mention here).

It'd be nice to have a search option in the app. Also, no matter how many ways that I say it, the app doesn't open with Google Assistant. This was not an issue with the previous app. Please fix it, or match the name with the actual name. It just kept opening the browser. Other than that, it's great. Thank you for providing my Boston classical while traveling the country.

App is great... when it works. It randomly stops every few minutes after the first hour of use. (Android device) UPDATE: I figured out how to keep the app from pausing so frequently. Once I turned off notifications for my device by putting it in Do Not Disturb mode, the random pausing stopped. Not so handy if you're on your phone or laptop and need notifications. So I use it on my tablet, which I don't depend on for email, text, or calls.
