KEEPS STOPPING

I just started using it for the first time in my car and it won’t last for more than a few minutes. It keeps cutting out.

Glitchy!

I sure hope this update makes this app stop being so inconsistent. It starts, disconnects, starts, stops, starts, stops. I have mostly stopped using it in favor of the NPR app. But if you fix it, I’ll use it again!

I’m grateful!

The app is great and I love the news I receive. Unfortunately I live in the mountains and clear reception is not always available
