### 1/5 — Overpowering add

*2023-08-31*

When trying to access WNIS app to listen to Clay and Buck, get an overpowering video game add that is impossible to get rid of.  Cannot find the x to delete the add.  I had to delete the app and download it again in order to access the WNIS app, however after a couple of days the same issue occurred.  Had to download and reinstall the app again.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-03-16*

The app as of this Monday is not functioning. Only thing that works are the ads. Go figure.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2021-03-15*

My app stopped working last week, so I’m missing Kerry & Mike

### 1/5 — Only reliable thing is a minute of ads before crash

*2019-02-12*

As I said: the Only reliable feature is a minute of ads before the app crashes.

### 1/5 — Cutting in and out

*2018-06-01*

Restarted 5 times in last 5 minutes, very frustrated, FIX IT!!!!?

### 1/5 — Secure to remove MALWARE

*2017-10-26*

Streaming would go in and out.  On multiple times got Malware messages. Believe it was just scareware, but started on I started using this app.  Deleted it, and won’t go back

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2017-05-06*

App was working at first 
Now it starts and shuts down and wants you to buy different app's 
Have to constantly restart after less than a minute or two
The app is useless 
I listen to Wnis and enjoy a lot of the shows but the app just does not work
Big disappointment 
Thanks Bill Etheridge

### 1/5 — You must share GPS location data!

*2017-02-14*

App will not function unless user allows the app to received users location data even when the app is not in use. 

😡

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2023-05-23*

This is a terrible app. Whenever you open it there are noisy ads for video games. You have to search for the X to close it and if you don’t do it just right you get redirected to get the game. Do you have 12 year olds running the app?  BTW, don’t the ads on the radio take precedence? I gave it 2 stars because WNIS is great once you get past the ads.

### 2/5 — Troublesome

*2022-12-22*

Updates are so ad centric that the app loads extremely slow; struggles to play radio feed and drops sound regardless of Wi-Fi strength, cell signal or buffering settings.  It used to work really well but recently core function has taken a back seat to ads. I’m pulling out the old AM radio for the office.

### 4/5 — Great App!!

*2017-01-30*

### 3/5 — App no longer playing stream. Just splash page of adds

*2021-03-15*

Anyone in tech side leaving an explanation why we no longer get audio of AM 790? Been trying for a week now. Reinstalled app. No go.
