### 1/5 — Very confusing

*2026-01-26, version 7.3.2*

Signed up for GPB and “donated” in order to access Passport programming. Watching on my ipad using gpb.org I can watch but can’t Chromecast to my TV, but on the app I can Chromecast but can’t watch Passport programs. Frustrating isn’t the word….

### 3/5 — Has bugs

*2025-12-23*

If you pause the app automatically closes and you lose your place and cant rewind back to where you were.

### 5/5 — Top rated

*2025-08-23*

This app is spectacular…all that amazing content on demand. Well designed and easy to manipulate.

### 2/5 — GPB app

*2025-05-28, version 6.2.18*

There are randomly occurring PSAs that interrupt programs. Also, more than once, there is radio silence that lasts for minutes to hours. Downloading the app anew does not remedy this sudden silence. Also, when transitioning from a home network to mobile roaming, the app has to be reopened. 12/6. My prior comment remains relevant. The “updates “ to this app have not remedied these issues. If anything, the issue of a frozen transmission when transitioning from home wi-go to mobile is worse. The only fix is to delete the app and reload it. I access four other public radio apps, none of which have these issues.

5/28/25. I support 4 other public radio streaming services. This app remains the least stable of them all. I hope you will continue to upgrade this very important service.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-05-02, version 6.2.18*

Great

### 5/5 — Enlightening

*2024-04-04, version 4.6.28*

Thank you for your content.

### 5/5 — Informative

*2024-04-03*

I like surfing around the site in the mornings to pick up info…

### 5/5 — Glad to have the GPB app

*2024-01-30*

Having the GPB app makes it so easy for me to listen to GPB anywhere I am I connect to my Bluetooth speaker in other rooms in the house. I can use earbuds out in the yard. It’s nice to be able to listen to whatever is currently streaming or she’s any other category I want. There’s so much content that sometimes I’m a little overwhelmed in trying to find what I want but it’s nice to have all that content!

### 3/5 — Middle of the road

*2024-01-13*

I’m not sure exactly what part of GPB I’m responding to here-so sorry. The app? The programming? For several years I’ve had trouble finding what is on and when but that is with the app or without it. I’m a contributor and get the monthly mag but things change. I think it’s the specificity with which I canNOT search GPB. 

NPR has also changed its app navigation as well as some features I’ve come to rely on. Now, I find the NPR app just plain hard to use compared with 2-3 years ago.

 The “live” NPR button is gone! So I’m driving along, listening to NPR in my car, drive into the garage and want to continue hearing the program. Until recently I would immediately pick up my iPhone NPR app hit “live” and continue listening. Now there is a disconnect as I sit in my garage trying to find the program I’ve been listening to in my car. Rarely to I find the program. Seems like the Savannah GPB/NPR station has just vanished? I appreciate you asking. Listening to NPR is a daily source of frustration I’ve not experienced until maybe six months ago.
