  • App connection problem

    C-Span radio app loses the connection for no apparent reason, forcing the listener to press the play button to resume listening. Stoppage occurs every minute or so of listening. This is problem is occurring on my iPhone 12 mini with an updated OS. I am on WiFi with a cold connection. According to the Apple Store, the C-Span app was last updated 2 mo ago.
    If it weren’t for this problem, my rating would be 4 stars.

  • Needs 5 stars but loses for performance

    I love this app but of late it has been crashing as well as looping the same dialogue every 20 or so seconds.
    Please fix it!
  • App lost function

    A lot of use poor people have older devices. It upsets me that you no longer can see the daily program schedule. WHY?
  • Audio to low on App

    It’s great when I’m indoors and alone but when I’m outside or around people I can’t hear what’s being said even with AirPods on highest level. Please add feature to raise in app audio volume
  • Was a 5 star app until a few days ago

    I think C-span is trying to force everyone to C-span now. I have rejected that app for a few weeks but starting now it is popping up every few minutes. The C-span radio stream keeps cutting out where you have to restart it every few minutes if it will restart at all. So I gave it and downloaded the C-span Now app thinking that I would be able to listen to the Washington Journal as I have for years now with out an issue and without tying it to cable same as I listen in my car. I use to love this app bu if you need to put a bug in it to force us onto another platform that requires an outside paid subscription why not say that up front. If long time users of the C-span Radio app are going to be cut off from listening just be upfront about it. Don’t annoy us with intermittent cut off. Use yo love the app now I’m just annoyed with it.

  • C-span is good

    It’s not CSPAN’s’s faults that this app IS LOUSY(🪳)—but lousy it has been, nonetheless.

    Needs
    1.) player UI: Play, Rewind, skip, so forth, etc.

    2.) Schedule slots should contain link to more descriptive page, keep what is there, add a (“more....>>”) link, so the user is presented with comp. descr. of the content, event, broadcast, etc.

  • Crashes too often!

    It worked well for a few years, but the last year or so it constantly loses connection and now even completely cashes. It is extremely unstable. The C-SPAN Now app requires a cable subscription and the radio portion of it only streams the main C-SPAN radio station. The ad tech trackers may be the culprit as they make hundreds of connections to their servers and if you block them, which you should, they continuously try to make connections in the background which compromises the stream. Ugh, I am utterly disappointed in you C-SPAN and I’ll never pay for cable again! Good bye C-SPAN!

  • Unstable

    I love listening to the c-span channels, but the app frequently crashes, randomly pauses in a fashion that requires re-entering the app to resume. I’d mention other issues, but I read a review from 2019 that well covered the issues that motivated a response from the developer. Well …
  • Have to press play every 5 minutes . I just downloaded this 1 hr ago Sounds edited though.

    I’ve had problems with the feed pausing every 5 mins.
  • Stops constantly

    On both our iPhones it constantly stops playing and needs to press play. I run lastest iOS on 10rs and 10+
