Overall the app is great. it just has one flaw that affects me every day. if you play the daily news recording from KNKX or from NPR then want to play the other one, you have to crash close the app in between. Once you play one of them, the other isn't clickable until you do.

Old app design easier to navigate. New design unnecessarily cluttered in appearance... Sometimes you just want to wake up and turn on the RADIO.
