It's amazing they haven't fixed it yet. ### 1/5 — Non working app *2015-09-28* Since last update in September 22, 2015 the App no longer works ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 26.1 - blank screen *2025-11-18* Doesn’t work with iOS 26.1 - blank screen ### 1/5 — Disgusting *2024-01-28* Can’t wake up to boom in the morning because they force you to wake up with ads. Can’t imagine a worse radio statuon! ### 1/5 — Boom 97.3 disappointed AND NOT USER FRIENDLY *2023-05-20* Curious of the new update. Popped back onto boom app, music stream and still disappointed that NOT ONLY NOTHING CHANGED ( see below ) but the updated is less user friendly. The playlist has changed big time to worse. Even the two hosts are still there that really know nothing about hosting. WHY SUPPOSEDLY FIX SOMETHING WHEN IT IS NOT BROKEN. Worse app ever. IF I COULD DO ZERO I WOULD. Sorry boom 97.3 you still have a ways to go before being an awesome station. As much as I love boom but we ( group ) are moving onto a better station that has 70 80 90 music. They don’t play enough 90s music. They constantly play the same three songs from an artist each day. Artists have tons of songs to choose from but they choose the same ones over and over lacking variety from those artists. Not to mention there are other artists that get minimal if any airtime. Laking overall variety. Which brings me to the like dislike button on the app. It is not a true fair option when only like works increasing songs popularity but when you hit dislike button the number doesn’t change. Number stays the same. Also on the recently played list songs are missing. You say oh I like that song who’s the artist but it’s not listed. Lastly they play an inappropriate commercial and one annoying host to the point when he’s on we ( group ) change stations. The other hosts are awesome and will miss them . When mentioned these concerns nothing changed. Just get ignored. When you don’t listen or care what the fans concerns are that support your station than it’s time to go. Sorry boom 97.3 you still have a ways to go before being an awesome station. ### 1/5 — Horrible reliability *2020-12-19* Doesn’t work well with airplay. Needs to be rebooted if phone calls come in, or other apps get notifications. Even then remote airplay receiver needs to rebooted. What a hassle - bring back simple wires to hook things up. ### 1/5 — Irritated *2017-03-02* I love boom but I'm getting pretty irritated when I use the app to listen and I can't shut it off. When I press pause it hesitates a moment then starts up again. I have to reboot my phone to silence it. Fix it please!! ### 1/5 — App Doesn't Work *2016-06-18* Your crap app doesn't work.

App shows bios of all current bands being played. Great simple detailed app. ### 5/5 — Awesome app and radio station. *2021-04-16* No bugs in the app and the station takes me back to great memories. Good mix of rockin Canadian tracks in there. Try not to hit the vote button. It’s hard. ### 5/5 — All I Need *2017-05-16* If you want 70s 80s 90s music, relatable jocks and a general vibe that takes you back. This station is the one! The app is simple for a complex world. Who cares about trinkets & features? It's a radio station with great jocks, fun imaging and awesome music - it's all you need. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2017-02-02* Best station in toronto! ### 5/5 — App *2015-12-13* I love the app and the way it's set up. I love the fact the DJ communicates with u. However I can't upload photos and the radio turns off by itself sometimes. ### 4/5 — App not opening *2016-02-29* Love the App... when it's working it's fantastic!! I used it last time for listening and easy access to Payroll Payout. This time the app loads but it bounces back to main screen when I click on it. I have deleted it and reloaded the app but it still bounces out. I can't get into the app this time. Please look into this for is so I can listed on my phone. Thank you! ### 2/5 — Ads in middle of Songs *2023-07-14* Great station, and a pretty smooth running app, but ads running half way through a song is very annoying. ### 2/5 — Alarm not working *2016-06-20* The app seems great except for the fact that the alarm never goes off in the morning when I set it. Too bad I can't wake up to Stu... --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
