It keeps dropping! 12/20/24

Guys! You need to take a hard look at this app! I had very few problems listening to the station on my iPhone 13 up until about a week and a half ago. It seems that when I installed the latest iOS version, that’s when the app started to drop quite frequently. I miss listening to DJ Heavy aka Heavy Claus!!

94.9 the best

We moved to Brunswick Co 15 yrs ago. My husband said it was so that we could listen to 94.9. We love the music and the DJ’s. Thanks for the memories.

Love the station. The app needs work

Tough to listen via this app on iOS (the Android version is somewhat better). Audio stops quite frequently, especially when minimized and using other apps. Looks like I’m not the only one who has experienced this. The support link merely goes to the station website, where I merely clicked on the “listen” link, where I got a dependable stream that doesn’t keep stopping. I certainly hope that is not the app developer’s solution to this. So, in other words, UPDATE THE APP!

App keeps pausing music

I have tried to call your contact number of 843-663-9492 and no one ever answers. I called Apple support and they tell me the problem is on your end. Your music at 94.9 keeps pausing and stops playing. Support said you have a bug for 12.5.5 version that needs to be repaired for my iPad. It plays fine on my iPhone but not the iPad. Would you please fix that bug so I can continue to listen to your wonderful music without it keeping knocking me off.

Love it!

Like being at the beach wherever I am!
For that, I give it 5 stars.
The app seems a bit sensitive on my iphone 8. Stops playing if using other smartphone functions.
Good to see the song title/artists. That info doesn’t refresh sometimes.

Love for 94.9

I’ve lived here since 1979, I remain a loyal listener! The music makes me dance around in my house and happy in the car! Now I seem to have it on my phone! What more do I need? Thanks

LOVE THE MUSIC!!!

We live in Topsail Beach and Orange, VA and take 94.9 EVERYWHERE with us! Bluetooth speakers on the boat, at the deck, on the dock. On the farm...all the time...in the stable! thank you for all your great music!

Spam Safari Ads Popping Up

This app has been great but used on the app or launching from the web browser, there is a spam/scam pop up and makes streaming the station impossible. This occurs after deleting and reinstalling the app as well.

We turn it off!

Unless it’s 94.9
The Surf! Then we can’t leave the radio!
They play the best Beach and Shag music ever heard on any radio station. Couple all that with oldies that we haven’t heard in years! Not the overplayed burned out stuff. We get very happy with hearing The Surf, not angry as we do with the other cookie cutter stations. Thanks for another great day of listening, 94.9 The Surf!

Keeps crashing

Love the music... hate the app.
Keeps crashing on iPad, cell phone and iPhone...every 10-15 minutes it stops playing. Have to keep pressing the play button every 10-15 minutes.

Plays Unsolicited in Middle of Night

Love the station, but not when it wakes me up at 2:30 am! Or when it starts playing randomly when I am on the phone. The app can be completely shut down and start playing out of the blue.

Great app!

Takes me back to the beach. Thanks for this. Works great.

Great music!

Nice to have The Surf so accessible from my phone and iPad. If a redesign is in the works, it would be nice to know the name of the artist and song.

Great music but ----

Love the music but I can't get anything else on the app to work. Could be me. Music is the most important part any way.

Great radio station

Found this station by accident and have been pleasantly surprised. Nice mix of old and new music with a few old remixed jingles. Certainly better than anything the UK radio market can produce!

Beach Music

I love this app. ......this is my little piece of the beach away from home ! 24/7 beach music is the best!
