Always runs in the background, crashes for no reason even when not in use. It is wasn't for the knkx stream id delete it and keep the npr app

To begin, I love this station however, this app is horrible. There are 4 different smartphones in my home with this app loaded. Without fail, the app will randomly shut down requiring a restart. Have uninstalled and reloaded numerous times to no avail. Samsung S7, HTC, Motorola, doesn't matter the make or model. Please, please, please fix this app.

Love the station Hate the app. Stops playing midstream for no apparent reason. Ugh! I just want to shower and listen to my KNKX!

As other reviewers have noted, the knkx app randomly stops playing every few minutes. It's really not very usable right now, unfortunately.

Like others have said, app will play for a few minutes and die. I use TuneIn Pro and it works 24/7.... Too bad they are a great station, love the Blues on the weekend.

Tried to stream while travelling, kept dropping. No good for streaming.

So flakey This app is so annoying it will just stop playing all of a sudden multiple times a day. The station itself is annoying with how repetitive it is for those of us that only listen to the station it replays stories and music all the time. Needs to update it's Playlists and content, maybe the app too so it doesn't shut down randomly

I LOVE this station, and prefer to listen over the internet with my tablet. Unfortunately, this app stops after 5 minutes or so (haven't figured out what triggers it, as it's not a constant time-to-fail). I tried NPR One app, but it seems to filter out the local parts of the broadcast (DJ, traffic, news), so I'm stuck with this. The same problem occurred with the Apple app when I had an iTouch.

Run well with solid connection. Please put a kill X for the app to shut it down when I'm done. It lingers and is annoying when trying to switch apps.

Love the station hate the app. It's very unreliable for the alarm clock function. Please fix it.

Congrats! Haven't opened it yet but if it works like the old one,I love it!

KNKX Awesome tunes. Fresh Air rocks. This how a radio station should be.

Stop running in the background and just do the simple job you're supposed to, well.

What do you need access to phone for? Uninstalling. Love music, news, but this update is just too nosy for me. Uninstalling.

Why does it need microphone Permission?

Favorite radio station Sure not thrilled with the sale since many of my FAVORITE PROGRAMS will be cancelled if sale is approved by the FCC.

Great!

Must uninstall to turn off? Lame. I've tried quitting the app, I've tried force stopping, but it seems to still always be running. I don't want yet another app that I can never turn off.

Sucks just like Nwpr app Go to only news app, and create a music app. Instead of screwing people looking for news. NWPR APP SUCKS AS WELL. GO BACK TO ORIGINAL APP IT WORKED GREAT. Now I'm stuck and just barely out of radio area for 88.5 on whidbey island.

Not in stereo A great jazz station - as is Jazz24, its sister station (my favorite in the car, 88.5 HD2). But why on earth settle for monoraul sound when you can listen to these streams in STEREO on TuneIn Radio?!!

Crash! Loved it while it worked. Crashed randomly and sometimes can't stream at all.

Fixed After the latest update this app is working perfectly.

Jazz Classic The greats hits.

Doesn't play Press play to listen button doesn't

Kplu Radio

Stable And a great station

Good music Great music

Used to work great but now it cuts out Was great and now it cuts out after about 1 minute, ever since most recent forced Update from ATT for my S4

new update stops Kik messages from being sent and received while app is in use. not sure if this is limited to just Kik or if other apps are affected. using Android 4.1.2.

Nice visual update, but now the alarm needs to be set manually evry day, is clunky, and unreliable :( Still good to stream, just can't wake up to KPLU anymore.

Stops after about 1 minute Using a new Samsung S5 phone.

Wonderful Beyond excellent!

Pleased to see KPLU Android app! KPLU-FM HD1 and HD2 are the first two station select buttons on my car's radio, and I'm really happy to have KPLU available on my smartphone (Motorola Photon Q LTE). Initially had a problem staying connected but that was an Android option problem.

Stops within minutes... Highly disappointed in this app. No idea if issues are the app itself, or my phone and/or service (Sprint Evo 4G) which typically work great. Uninstalled.

Latest version seems fixed now; was: Stopped working That's better, thank you! ... Worked fine for some time, but now defaults to KPLU on start up, and attempts to switch to jazz 24 result in a crash every time. Have to go elsewhere.....

Balls Incredibly frustrated with this app. Ill have full signal and it continues to stop streaming. Ill have to constantly go back to the app and press play. Its done this on two phones now This app is terrible.

Great music but after a sprint"update"the station plays for30seconds and shuts down.solutions anyone? Great station!But now after a sprint update,shuts down after30 seconds.

Kicks me out after approx. 5 minutes of listening Using the latest version on my Galaxy4. Fine when it works, but for me....unusable.

Crap Doesn't open most times, and if it does it shuts off within a minute on my razr.

Just stops streaming sometimes on its own.
