Leave a Review Wondery
This app is broken and always has been.
I’m on my final dealing with this app after years of Wondery+. I’m cancelling. Not because I don’t love the podcasts, I do. I’m cancelling because this app is terrible. In its current rev it crashes after about 15 seconds of playing and has for about a week now. This is different from the normal random crashing this app always has, and the joy of having to log back in through the network; not locally. On a remote drive? On a plane? Listening to downloaded episodes? Doesn’t matter. When this app crashes it won’t let you log back in without an internet connection, even to listen to downloads. I can’t even access the content I’m paying for when I want to access it despite planning ahead for a lack of internet access. So now that I can’t even listen at home, with a high speed connection on my own network without the app crashing, I’m done. I’m not giving Wondery any more of my money until this clunky, slow, unreliable app is fixed, and I suggest you don’t either.
Edit- lol at the lame boilerplate response to my criticism. Hey guys- if you want to actually fix your lousy app maybe try listening instead of churning out lip service form responses to people complaining about the same problems for years.Show lessNohelmet

I love some of the shows on this platform but my lower rating lies solely on the poor app development. It’s clunky and slow. It’s a pain to try and get it to work if you’re offline, even when you’ve downloaded the episodes. I even have Wondery+ and this app is still pretty crappy. It also will kick you out and make you log in again fairly often. Even if you had it open listening to it in the morning, by the afternoon it will make you sign in again which is annoying. I don’t even have it on another device so it’s not like it’s because I was using it somewhere else, it just logs me out. Also I don’t share my account with anyone so again it doesn’t log me out related to any glitches with that. I like the shows but this is probably my least favorite interface to listen on. If I could get the exclusive content elsewhere I probably would just because I hate fighting with this app. Also, this app drains my battery fastest compared to other platforms…Show lessadoodley96
