Ratings and Reviews
Finally local news on the move
So glad to have local npr news on my phone again. (Recently moved here from another state)
The only problem that I have is the little message that plays every time the app connects. Really gets annoying when you are experiencing connection issues with WiFi or network which often happens living in WNC.
Seriously the least reliable app on my phone.
Through every version of this app, the BPR radio player is consistently unreliable. Every morning it will drop out and stop playing within a few minutes of the start.
It is difficult to start with and stop requiring several tries.
It keeps playing after the app has been swiped closed.
And if you do want to play Podcasts, be careful not to pause because it forgets where you are and starts the podcast all over again when you go to restart.
My favorite station
I listen to BPR on the road all the time. Haven’t changed the dial since I found it a year ago. When I’m in the office I listen through the app on my phone and love it. Excellent, objective journalism. Multiple views and original sources are voiced. In a time where there is so much bias it’s refreshing to hear good journalism from a community funded radio station. Very pleased with this station!
