Echoing others

This is a delightful app, and it allows me to easily access WNXP; however, the connection does sometimes drop, which can be a bummer! Once they fix that, it’ll be perfection.

Love having WPLN on my phone

Great for when I’m gardening, etc. and not near a “regular” radio!

A most useful app.

I am a long time listener to WPLN. Now that I have the app on my phone I can listen to the 4 WPLN options when I am away from my home radio or my car. I love it.

Glitchy, consistently

I love NPT but even this latest version on the app is consistently glitchy. Station players will not launch even after repeated closing and relaunch or once playing, station streaming repeats a four second loop of the first audio feed played. Can’t wait for the next update to fix these bugs.

WPLN/NPR on the Go!

I love that I can listen to NPR, and most enjoyably, my local station when I’m on the go. No more lost signal on the radio and forced to find another station…Even worse is when there is no local station as when I go to work. (Live in Nashville, but I work in Columbia.) As others have noted, there are however drops in the app’s signal, which forces one to hit “play” in order to get it started back up. If not for this, I’d give it 5 stars.

Easy and Dependable

When we first moved to Nashville from Seattle in 2018 we were excited to find WPLN! We left our radio behind and we stream now at home - the App or online streaming (not sure there was an App) was a little clunky in 2018 and early 2019 but the App has improved SO much and is fabulous!! We use it to listen all day long!

Listening to Nashville Classical

Since this is the now only way to listen to classical music at home without utilizing a CD player, the app is a god send. I’ve had connectivity issues, but they seem to be few and random.

I love it!

I wish it was easier to listen to some of the other non-local programs like Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me, but otherwise I love the programming and the app is very well done.

Easy listening, with the occasional glitch

Love the easy format for listening in on my phone. My only complaint is the spontaneous connection loss, as some other reviewers have eluded to.
