Cuts out for no reason most days. I have listened to WTMX for about 15 years but I switch over to Pandora or Prime Music when I get frustrated, which is daily. ### 2/5 — Needs fixed *2020-09-10, version 1.5.7* Constantly buffering. Very annoying ### 2/5 — Much room for improvements *2020-06-17* I love listening to The Mix, but the app itself kind of stinks. It cuts out, stops working all together, and has to be uninstalled and reinstalled way more than it should to get working properly again. I will have a good day with the app then the next day completely horrible using it. I check for updates all the time and always have the most updated version. Please improve the functionality! ### 2/5 — Does not stay on *2019-09-09* I turns off as soon as your phone goes into sleep mode, so every two minutes or so. I’m not about to turn the sleep off on my phone for one app. No other radio app does that. Super annoying. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Missing the Mix!! *2019-04-19* The app won't open. Starts to load and just shuts down. Can't find a fix. I'd give 5 stars if I could listen. Grew up listening but now live out of state. Would love to continue listening!! Any suggestions would b appreciated. ### 1/5 — This app stinks *2019-03-11* It is constantly turning itself off or cutting out and having to buffer. I really wish it worked because I like the station a lot. It’s the worst app experience I have ever had. ### 2/5 — Love the station, hate the app *2019-01-15* I have been listening to 101.9 The Mix every morning while getting ready for many years. However, the app is constantly cutting out. Sometimes it comes right back, sometimes it comes back after several minutes, and sometimes not at all. Guess I’ll start listening to SiriusXM because that app has no issues. I’ll miss you, Eric, Melissa, and Whip! ### 1/5 — Goes off line a lot *2018-06-03, version 1.3.0* When using the App, it frequently goes out do to buffering. Very annoying as you have to close the App and restart. Great radio station so please fix ASAP!!!! ### 2/5 — Very buggy! *2018-04-23* Please fix the kinks in this app! I’m trying to listen to Eric in the Morning and app constantly stops playing for no reason, and now the timeline won’t refresh to show what’s ACTUALLY currently playing. ### 1/5 — Won’t download *2018-01-28, version 1.1.9* Have been trying to download the app for a couple of days but just keeps saying loading but never completes 😥 ### 1/5 — Podcast stop playing when app isnt active. *2017-11-02* As other reviews state, the podcasts stop playing if the app isnt open or if the phone goes on sleep mode. Not cool! Someone please fix this as its stupid to think someone is going to sit there and make sure their phone doesnt go on sleep mode with the app open for an entire show! ### 1/5 — Crashes all the time won't even open *2017-10-31* Used to love it but for awhile now even after I update it crashes as soon as I open it. I've even tried deleting and trying again but it still happens. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Won’t open no more *2025-02-10* I try to open it and it closes itself immediately. I’ve updated my iOS sooooo…what’s the dealio? Doesn’t anyone notice listener numbers have dropped since Friday? Or am I the only puts who listens on the app? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with airplay *2024-01-18, version 1.7.2* App does not work with AirPlay to a Sonos speaker. So I am forced to use the Sonos app where they describe the morning show as Eric in the morning with Kathy and Whip. ### 1/5 — Eric Ferguson *2021-09-28, version 1.6.3* Since the news is out about Eric and sexual favors , As a respectful Radio station , I’d say he needs to go . No excuses I will Boy Cott this station because justice needs to be served . 😡 ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2020-01-10* This app always crashes or doesn’t start playing after pausing. It’s the only way I can listen to The Mix most of the time. It’s been this way from day one. ### 1/5 — Alarm function crashes the app [edit] *2019-11-03* I like to wake up the Mix and wanted to use the alarm function in the app. However every time I select the alarm the app crashes. —This problem has been fixed with an update. However, in order to wake up to the radio your phone has to remain unlocked. Very disappointing as I don’t want to have to remember to disable & then enable the security every evening and morning. ### 1/5 — App issues! *2019-09-27, version 1.5.0* I have not been able to open the app since Tuesday. I hope the is resolved soon. I really miss listening every morning. ### 1/5 — Good job breaking the app. *2019-09-27, version 1.5.0* Great work on the latest update. Now the app does not start at all on the new iPhone 11. ### 1/5 — Update broke the app *2019-09-26* I have had the app on my phone for a couple of years so that I can listen at work. After the most recent update (which shows two days ago) the app doesn’t open at all I have removed the app and reinstalled it and still nothing. Please fix this!!! ### 1/5 — Apple update *2019-09-26, version 1.5.0* I just had the app updated through apple and now I can’t even get it to open! Please fix ASAP!!! ### 1/5 — Needs a redo *2019-06-10, version 1.4.9* The app is awful. Quits playing randomly and frequently. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — READ I WOULD LIKE I COULD WIN SOMETHING or show me out *2026-04-10, version 1.8.4* THE BEST APP EVER YOU NEED TO GET IT NOWWWWW ### 5/5 — Best station ever *2026-02-10* I have been listening to the mix for quite a while, since 2018. They have a great variety of music genres and old and new songs. The hosts and the talk show always manage to make me laugh. However, the app sometimes glitches with the music playing and it abruptly stops, but never for longer than a minute. ### 5/5 — Ummmm why all the bad reviews? *2018-04-28* I personally love this game and I love to listen to music while I do my homework and take my dogs out for walks,and this is my all time favorite music app ### 5/5 — Functionality *2018-02-27* App works great! This is a much better alternative than to listening to the Mix via other apps ### 5/5 — Great radio *2016-06-02, version 1.0.4* Lol I'm the first one here ### 4/5 — App crashes *2020-05-27* Since u did the last update, the app now crashes every time I open it ### 3/5 — Reliability “Mixed” *2019-02-26* I love being able to listen to my favorite radio station every morning while getting ready for the day. Unfortunately, lately, the frustration of trying to listen to 101.9 outweighs the benefits. This app frequently cuts out and NEVER comes back. It just stops cold - and never during a commercial! ### 3/5 — App cuts out. *2018-09-27* I have had The Mix app for quite some time. I listen every week day. As of recently, the app has been cutting out. It does not show as “paused”; I will have to go back into the app, stop it, and start it again. It’s getting quite frustrating. Please update. ### 3/5 — Podcast Stops After One Episode *2018-01-23* The old podcast used to play one episode after another. With the new podcast, it quits after listening to one episode. Why? Please fix. ### 3/5 — Stops playing every few minutes *2017-05-30, version 1.1.2* This app used to work fine but now it stops all the time. I spend more time getting it to play than actually enjoying the live radio. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
