### 4/5 — newer is not always better

*2019-07-12*

hate seeing the app is acl radio. what happened to kgsr?

### 4/5 — One of the best radio stations in the country!

*2019-05-13*

Visiting Austin recently I fell in love with ACL radio. Weekend mix feels a less consistent with weekdays (I prefer the latter) but still good nonetheless and I’m always discovering great artists I haven’t heard of yet. Props for providing playlist and that I can ❤️ songs, but would be really great if liking heart color was consistent between liking the song when Playing Now and liking the song under Song History. One UX note for the developers—it’s confusing when liking a song under Playing Now is white (not darkened heart) and is dark when liking music under Song History. So did I like the song playing now or unlike it?
Dropped one star for app crashing from time to time but at least it reboots quickly. 
So glad I can listen out of town!

### 4/5 — Music junkie

*2016-08-06, version 4.34*

I visited Austin a couple times and was lucky enough to find kgsr. It immediately turned into one of my favorite commercial stations. Who'd thought a Minnesota boy with alternative influences would find a musical oasis in Austin? Cool station!

### 5/5 — This app makes me cry tears of joy

*2015-10-22*

I miss Austin so much. I'm on the other side of the country for college and nothing brings me to tears more then Kelly Jordan's voice and personality. I discovered Kgsr in the beginning of high school and listened to him every morning drive. This station defines Austin and plays honest to god great music weather it'd be mainstream or some unheard of artist slowly climbing the ladder. I never have to worry about hearing the same playlist. Although they favor more songs than others, I can't think of another radio station that's actually worth the commercials.

### 3/5 — Great Station

*2015-10-22, version 4.33*

Love the station...app has issues. "Now Playing" screen is locked on one song regardless of what is playing. Tante pis.

### 5/5 — Great app but... A great station for new music

*2015-10-10, version 4.33*

Love this app love this radio station. Music streams very well. This is my # 1 Internet radio station.

### 5/5 — From Coast to Coast - there is not a better station!

*2015-08-26*

I use the app when I'm home or traveling, and have never had any issues.

Having the best station in the country with me wherever I travel is awesome!!   There is never a need to attempt to find a "local" station or subscribe to any of the national services!  

Love 93.3 KGSR!

### 5/5 — You won't regret it.

*2015-07-13, version 4.31.2*

KGSR is authentic Austin.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2014-01-19*

I absolutely love the new design. It adds a lot of new features, like the lyrics and concert info for the song playing, which is awesome. Since I don't currently live in Austin, it's nice to be able to still listen to my favorite radio station when I'm away!

### 5/5 — I can listen anywhere!

*2013-12-07, version 3.2.8005*

Love it!  Working outside and streaming at the same time!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2013-10-28, version 3.2.8005*

This radio app is the only thing I listen to. Never had any glitches with it, it always works. Great music!

### 5/5 — Austin's Preferred Station

*2013-08-26, version 3.2.8005*

If you love new bands, new artists and something relaxing to listen to on any given day, KGSR is guaranteed to be one of your Top 5 Stations to listen to.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Several steps back

*2017-04-01, version 4.50.2*

Older app which kept rolling playlist of what the station is airing live was better.

### 1/5 — Sadly Doesn't Work

*2015-06-12, version 3.9*

iPhone 8.3 fresh install app
- Launch app
- Deny location access
- infinite loading spinner 

Nothing ever loads

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2014-08-14, version 3.6.1*

This used to be a terrific app and a great way to access a station I love. Now, it's constant ads and other annoyances, and most importantly, the great alarm feature is gone.  Bring back the old app!

### 1/5 — Bring back the old app

*2014-05-04, version 3.6.1*

This used to be my go to app for music but crashes constantly and excessive ads.  Don't use it near as much.  Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Slow

*2014-02-12, version 3.6*

I deleted it. New app has cool features but is too slow to load and then to have to listen and watch the same ad every time you open the app. It would be much better if you didn't have to wait for the ad screen to go away before accessing the features.

### 1/5 — Now blocked in the uk!

*2012-04-26, version 3.0.3157*

Tragic.... Nothing wrong with the app... Except it is still on the uk store but won't work here... The best radio station in the world, but now blocked from all uk listeners. Presumably lawyers stepped in to ensure all this marvellous music is kept from us and we are forced to listen to British radio which offers nothing remotely similar. Very sad and extremely annoying!

### 1/5 — New version crashes on iPod touch

*2010-06-18, version 0*

I've used this app for over a year, but the latest version crashes each time I launch it.  I have tried restarting my iPod, which usually is all that's needed for buggy apps, but this one is now useless for streaming until they fix it.

### 2/5 — Update

*2014-03-08, version 3.6.1*

Love the music on KGSR. This was a great app to listen to the station - now it's an app primarily streaming advertisements.

### 3/5 — Great Station but App still in need of update

*2020-05-25*

Very disappointing that this app hasn’t been updated since Apple introduced the iPhone X over 2 1/2 years ago.  For example, they just stretched the screen to fit the iPhone X which makes the play button is nearly impossible to hit b/c it’s so close to the bottom of the screen.

### 3/5 — Need either an iPad version or a way to make it landscape.

*2018-11-25*

Love KGSR/ACL but listen to it on the iPad at home.  Would like an ipad version or landscape setup.

### 5/5 — Great App. Awesome music!

*2020-09-21*

I don’t live in Austin anymore but love that I can have some of Austin with me wherever I am. The updated App is great. The music is awesome, as always.

### 5/5 — Great app and station

*2019-03-11*

I listen out of town.  Heard 93.3 has changed formats but 97.1 is still playing this music.  
I understand it is a business but, hope the 'Austin' format can remain in some manner.
Best of luck, hope this can stay around for a long while.

### 5/5 — ACL + KGSR = Greatness in Radio

*2018-10-21*

Best mix of the best artists and songs on the radio

### 5/5 — KGSR - excellence in sound

*2018-03-03*

What a great app, best music you can get on the Internet.

### 5/5 — Best station in USA!

*2017-07-16*

Enough said!

### 5/5 — If you don't have it you're missing out

*2017-06-14, version 4.50.2*

Living in San Antonio we no longer have an indie station. KGSR is amazing from acoustic sessions, live artists in studio, interviews during music festivals etc. this is my go to streaming radio app.

### 5/5 — Love this station

*2017-02-14, version 4.50.2*

I love that I can stream this station on my phone. I pretty much listen to KGSR and KXT in Dallas. They both play great music and lots of local talent. When I drive to Austin I get excited when I am in range of KGSR and change the dial!!!

### 5/5 — Nothing compares

*2017-02-03, version 4.50.2*

There is no other radio station like this.  XM needs to syndicate it so I can hear it in my car. After living away from TX for 23 years, I still can't find a station that dares to play what they want without catering to the tawdry appetites of stoners.

### 5/5 — Love!

*2017-01-01, version 4.34*

I moved from the Austin area and miss the music so much! This app is a lifesaver. Love you KGSR!! ❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Awesome station

*2016-05-01, version 4.34*

Great app. You gotta have location service on for it though.
