### 1/5 — Live game day does not work

*2015-09-13, version 2.0*

Just tried to listen into the game and both the Bears channel and 780 do not work.

### 1/5 — No longer works!?

*2015-09-13, version 2.0*

I have this app on my iPhone and iPad. I'm now getting a message from Cbs saying I am out of the country (which I'm not) or streaming when I shouldn't be. Anyone else having this problem or know how to correct it?

### 1/5 — This app is a joke don't get ripped off

*2015-09-13, version 2.0*

You will not be able to listen to games

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2015-09-04, version 2.0*

I just purchased this app. It was late 3rd quarter on a pre season game. When I selected the          " flagship" station WBBM the announcement stated that either I am out of the country, or I am not authorized to listen to the station. Really? I just paid for the app! I will be contacting Apple about this rip off!

### 1/5 — Ripoff!

*2014-08-29, version 1.9*

I am currently in Minnesota on vacation and wanted to listen to the Bears. I got nothing but the contractual message or stations from both team cities that have nothing to do with the Bears. I went to this app bc it claimed you could listen to the Bears from anywhere in the country... that is until you downloaded it!

### 1/5 — Horrible app that was a complete waste of money

*2014-08-09, version 1.9*

Save your money! It never works and then the message states that due to contractual reasons some stations are not able to steam. The only stations that work are not streaming the game. As a Bears fan I purchased the app so that I could listen to the game while living I California. Horrible app that was a complete waste of money.  Was not able to give it ZERO stars.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2013-12-31, version 1.9*

Don't bother paying for this useless app. The radio stations aren't legally allowed to stream the game, so when the game starts the station cuts off it's streaming. This happens to all the stations they provide. Don't waste your money.

### 1/5 — Save Your $

*2013-12-30, version 1.9*

This app is useless.  I bought it hoping that I would get to finally listen to the Bears game but couldn't.  There are several stations listed but the actual game was blocked.  Some of the other stations worked but all they did was play music.  Why would they list a radio station that didn't even play the game? Each team had several stations listed under them but none of the ones that worked actually played the game.  I wasted too much time going through the stations only to find that none of them broadcasted the game.

### 1/5 — Disappointed fan

*2013-12-29, version 1.9*

Complete failure if not a fraud. I want my money back. When I bought something labeled bears radio live, i did it solely to hear the bears home call on wbbm. It merely shows as "stopped."  Then i go to info to be told that "sometimes" the stations cant broadcast due to 'contractual obligations.'  And i should try both teams stations. If i wanted the gb home call i would have bought something called packers radio!!
If 'stopped' means it cant be broadcast it should at least say that rather than have me have to struggle 15 mins to figure out how to get it started. 
I dont have email set up on my phone so i couldnt follow the app's direction to email for support b4 leaving negative feedback. How do I get my refund?!

### 1/5 — Horrible!!! No support

*2013-11-17, version 1.9*

When I bought this app I was able to listen to maybe 3 games. After that it wouldn't work whatsoever. I'll be able to listen to 780 WBBM before and after the game but during it wouldn't let me. I have emailed the address provided twice now and have not received any info on why this is happening or to say we are working on the issue. Horrible app and not worth the price!!

### 2/5 — It's OK, Better Than Nothing?

*2013-09-15, version 1.9*

The problems with this app are: 1) The WBBM 780 feed is blocked, and 2) the other feeds are 2-3 minutes delayed. I found that ESPN Gamecast from ScoreCenter and NFL RedZone were each closer to live action and would get me what I need before the radio feed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-01-01, version 2.0*

Unable to listen to the game.

### 1/5 — Used to work but now frustrating

*2020-10-04, version 2.0*

I used to use this app without any issues (many years ago) but recently it plays for about 3 minutes and then stops. I have to keep rebooting the station. It’s got to be a simple fix on developer end. PLEASE FIX!

### 1/5 — Won't let me listen to bears radio

*2016-12-24, version 2.0*

This app lists radio stations that are playing music instead of the game. And the flag ship radio station keeps saying I am out of the country even though I am in the Chicago suburbs

### 1/5 — Bummer

*2016-11-20, version 2.0*

This app has gone steadily downhill since I got it several years ago. I can no longer even access the the Bears' opponents radio feed; and they seem uninterested in fixing it. Not bad service; no service at all.

### 1/5 — BS do not throw a dollar away.

*2016-11-01, version 2.0*

Yack.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2015-11-16, version 2.0*

Had this for 2 years , can't get any of the bears stations but their opponents   Stations you get maybe 1 or  2 of the ones listed and who wants to listen to the opponents announcers !!
Contacted them and nothing resolved total thumbs down.
And now it keeps saying that I'm out of the country !! I'm in Chicago !!! Worst app ever !!! Do not buy

### 1/5 — Waste of money.

*2015-10-11, version 2.0*

Doesn't work. Says I'm out of the U.S. And can't stream the game. They basically stole my money

### 1/5 — No go does not work

*2015-09-23, version 2.0*

Does not work, as the others state, it tells me that I'm out of the country and some other BS why I can't listen to WBBM.  Alternative radio stations are also listed which they indicate also broadcast the game....but these station do not broadcast for the Bears.  It really is a joke of an app.

### 1/5 — Save your money

*2015-09-14, version 2.0*

This app is terrible radio stations either don't work or are not the football games just regular radio. Very irritated.

### 1/5 — Major Rip Off

*2015-09-13, version 2.0*

I would have thought Apple would at least check the  apps they agree to so that people are not ripped off! This app uses a radio station called the Bear to give you the impression it's the Chicago Bears station. 

DONT GET SUCKERED IN!!

### 5/5 — Radio

*2015-10-04, version 2.0*

This is a great app with excellent support.

### 5/5 — Da bears

*2015-09-13, version 2.0*

Love it

### 5/5 — Instrument of Torture

*2014-12-28, version 1.9*

Just because I live in Los Angeles, it doesn't mean I have to miss out on experiencing the misery that is the play of a he 2014 Chicago Bears. Why must I be limited to the lowlights shown on ESPN or the NFL Network? No, I want to cringe at every overthrown ball, every defense failure, and every inadequate special teams "play."  This being the case, this app is shear perfection. WBBM tries to protect me by blocking mobile streaming, but there are other stations willing to be my enabler. There are always a myriad of stations offered for me to catch every Bears fumble and missed tackle.

### 5/5 — App saved the day

*2014-10-05, version 1.9*

I was traveling and far away from home unable to watch the Bears game on television...this app allowed me to survey multiple stations for a signal that would work...I ended up getting a home announcer station which was fantastic thank you

### 5/5 — Bears rule

*2014-09-08, version 1.9*

I was disappointed because I could only hear the games on the opponents' game feed. I emailed support about my disappointment and the issues was fixed and I was emailed back before the end of the quarter. I am now listening to the bears' broadcast. Great app with great support

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-08-20, version 1.9*

This is a great app i never new the scores and all my friends did until i got this app it even has a radio

### 5/5 — Five stars plus plus

*2013-11-17, version 1.9*

Got to the game while traveling in Germany. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2013-10-20, version 1.9*

I live in Dallas so it is great to have this app so I can listen to the game when they aren't playing it down here!

### 5/5 — Just what I need!

*2013-10-05, version 1.9*

The only thing that would make this app any better would be streaming live games on video. Of course, the NFL probably doesn't allow that. Shame on them. Love the audio and scores though.

### 5/5 — Love the App and Da Bears

*2013-09-15, version 1.9*

Bears fan stranded in Ohio and traveling the world for business so the App is a life-saver. Never have to miss a game. I've literally listened at breakfast in China on a Monday morning with perfect reception. Go Bears!
