Ratings and reviews

it works, but I don't like it. The app is blindingly white with no dark option, and a bit clunky to use. It doesn't allow for normal use of your phone's back button. Its back button is shaped like a down arrow at the top center of the screen. The app also requires wifi to play anything. As I understand it, paying would alleviate the wifi necessity, but the way the app works, I would be really annoyed to pay for it on top of everything else. it's easier to listen from the web browser.

The app used to work great. I let my subscription lapse and now it will not let me resubscribe. It looks right as it gives 4 options with the pricing, but when you select one, the screen darkens and it goes into a never ending "processing" mode. I have un-installed and reinstalled the app, but it still does the same thing. I can listen to a couple of episodes on the main page, bit nothing beyond that.

This app has lots of room for improvement. I enjoy old time radio shows, and wanted to "binge listen" to shows while I'm driving. I drive long distances every day. Many buttons and featured in the app don't work. Bookmarking for one. And if you choose to listen to all of a group of shows and the come back later, you have to start all over again. The button to email them is another. I paid for the year subscription, but unless the app is fixed I won't renew.
