### 3/5 — Love the station

*2017-08-06*

If we have to listen to music instead of local commercial can we have more variety ? I'd rather hear the local commercials.

### 4/5 — 101X

*2017-06-16, version 4.55.1*

Great tunes. Great station. 
Deb from GA.

### 3/5 — Alarm issues and program strays

*2016-05-29*

Every weekend we tune in for chillville. The alarm is set for it and it never goes off, the app doesn't pull up. No tunes. No alarm. Additionally, the program at least twice an hour seems to stray and plays crap during chillville. Or maybe that the playlist but I'd hope that Blink 182s 'rock show' isn't part of the chillville playlist.

### 4/5 — Works great.

*2016-04-10, version 4.34*

I use this all the time to listen to Chillville on the weekends. I love it!

### 5/5 — A great app

*2015-11-09, version 4.34*

Very easy to use and most importantly it WORKS!

### 5/5 — Love this

*2015-09-22, version 4.33*

If I travel outside of the 101x broadcasting area, I can count on the app to pick up where the air signal left off.

### 5/5 — Nooice

*2015-08-17, version 4.32*

Nooice shtuff man. I like it. What is there to say. It's 101x on your phone.  Let's go.  I'm in Colorado so it's pretty nice

### 5/5 — Greatest Radio Station In The World

*2015-07-13*

This app is miles above its predecessor. Previous app would drain you battery in about 45 mins. This app is great.

Now onto the station. I've listened to 101x since I was first stationed at Fort Hood back in 1999, and have listened continuously since then. Through a deployment to Korea, at home on leave from Iraq, and in about six different states. I constantly know more about who is coming in concert to Austin instead of Tampa where I currently live. Which is unfortunate for me since I've missed good concerts. 
The jocks know their music and play some great stuff both old and new.

Thank you folks for all that you do. You've earned a listener for life.

### 3/5 — CAN'T STAND THE BUGGY AD AT STARTUP!!!

*2014-11-18*

If I hear another ad for Pirate Energy, I'll vow to never buy a bottle of that stuff!   Change the ads or remove them periodically!  It's annoying that I have to hear "Trevin on the Radio" talk about "his friends at Pirate Energy" EVERYTIME I start the app.  I've heard the commercial so many times, I almost have his script memorized!   Whenever I see Pirate Energy in the stores, it reminds me of the obnoxious, annoying 101X ad and I avoid buying as if it were Ebola.  Give us a break!

### 4/5 — Pretty cool, but..

*2013-07-10, version 3.0.8005*

I love the fact that I can still listen to Alternative Rock even though I don't live in Austin anymore, BUT why the hell do they have to replay Jason and Deb skits throughout the day!?  If I wanted to listen to them
instead of music, I'd listen to them. DON'T SHOVE IT DOWN MY THROAT!

### 4/5 — Screw

*2013-07-09, version 3.0.8005*

Great weekend station we lost our good Boston alternative and I was forced to outsource luck Austin has a clue

### 1/5 — All commercials

*2020-09-28*

Listened for 5 minutes and all it plays is commercials

### 1/5 — Can’t listen to the podcasts

*2019-01-02*

I can listen live but when I try to listen the podcast the app crashes every time.  This happens both in my work phone and personal phone.  Other than that 5 stars. Please fix soon

### 1/5 — Not great interface, even more buggy

*2017-02-19, version 4.50.2*

Will often times connect me to another saved recording of the station that is not why I'm looking for. Need to improve

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2017-01-17, version 4.42*

This app has never worked correctly. The only reason I use it is to listen to the morning show. Today the audio kept coming in and out. The commercials are often interrupted by some lady screaming 123 then a song comes on. I'd rather listen to the commercials. Please spend the money to actually fix it.

### 1/5 — Horrible use tunein radio instead

*2015-01-19, version 3.8*

Can't get past the opening ad. This app blows!!!

### 1/5 — Bad mive

*2014-01-06, version 3.6*

Horrible sound quality.

### 1/5 — Terrible Update by Liquid Compass

*2013-12-29, version 3.6*

Not a reflection of the station or its programming. This is probably the worst designed and engineered app I have ever used. I am a huge fan of the station and am very disappointed with Emmis' decision to make this update.

Switching to liquid compass as a dev company was the worst thing you guys could have possibly done. It appears all of their apps are this bad. It's such a shame.

### 1/5 — Keeps cutting off

*2013-06-22, version 3.0.8005*

Fix the bug where it keeps cutting off middle of a program or song!

### 2/5 — It does what it does well, but that's not much

*2015-09-17*

I imagine that the station didn't ask Triton to do much here, so it's probably not fair to blame the app developers for this.  When you set you sights low, and you hit the bullseye, you still end up with mediocrity.

This app will allow you to live stream the station, to see a very limited song history, and to share or purchase the songs or see a brief profile of the artists.  That's it - period.

There is ZERO else here.  Nothing about the station, or about the people working there (who you almost never hear on air) IDK much else about this station itself as this isn't a station I get from my home in Wimberley.  

The very limited things it does, it does cleanly, reliably and without any bugs that I found.

It's too bad that I am now deleting this app as a waste of space as I otherwise love this station, I just have several other general radio apps (like 5150radio) I can program it into to listen to that will do the same things.

### 2/5 — Spotty connection

*2015-07-16, version 4.31.2*

I've used this app for the past week and every 30 seconds or so the sound will cut out for about 5-10 seconds and then come back. Sometimes it's longer. The old app did not have this issue and I know it's not a wi-fi issue because I've used it on a couple of wi-fi connections.

### 5/5 — So glad to have KROX 101X on iPhone

*2020-04-01*

Put 101X on my iPhone so when I get to wherever I’m driving I can finish listening to Deb & Jason show wherever I am.

### 5/5 — Podcast

*2018-10-08*

Love the app used it for a long time but every time I try to open the podcasts recently the app crashes

### 5/5 — Best way to listen to home when abroad

*2017-08-06*

Don't live at home much anymore. But love that I can tune in and at least listen like I'm cruising through traffic on mopac, or walking through zilker, or heading DT, or chilling at the lake. Definitely the cure for homesickness.

### 5/5 — Chuynorrisdeaustin

*2017-06-04, version 4.55.1*

Awesome.🐯

### 5/5 — The stars say it all...again.

It's good y'all.

### 5/5 — Love 101 X

*2016-10-24, version 4.42*

I live in Austin,TX and Every morning I listen to 101.5 on my iPhone and MacBook. I like taking both devices with me and not have to worry about listening to Apple Music everyday

### 5/5 — Addict

### 5/5 — 101x app is the best

*2016-07-05, version 4.34*

The station is the best all around morning show, new music, event info and the djs are cool too. This app makes it easy to get all those great things anywhere!!

### 5/5 — 101x rocks

*2016-02-19, version 4.34*

U rock man. Love this app

### 5/5 — new and Greatly Improved

Been using this app for 5 years. It finally works like it is supposed to and does not take 4 minutes to load. Good job.
