### 5/5 — Excellent jazz app

*2026-01-03, version 6.3.8*

This truly is a world class jazz radio. I’ve been listening to Jazz24 for over 30 years and it never disappoints. 

We listened on the app when we lived in France twelve years ago, and helped me feel connected to my west coast roots.

I love the variety of jazz music they play, and listening to all the well informed DJ’s and MC’s.

Well worth listening to Jazz24. Yeah baby!! 😎❣️

### 4/5 — Love music but not synched

*2025-11-19*

I love the music that is played on jazz 24. Unfortunately, the titles of the songs are not synced correctly to what is actually playing.

### 5/5 — Best jazz station

*2025-10-31*

It’s my go to station which I listen to while letting my HiFi system warm up. I like it so much many times I forget to put anything else on.

### 5/5 — Jazz in many styles

*2025-10-15*

My only station to listen to jazz on. Great variety of styles with major and new artists.  Appreciate the playlist on the app. I get many of my new songs downloaded from the station.. Totally recommend it.

### 5/5 — The best Jazz Radio station

*2025-10-13*

When a musician plays well they are known as tasty. Jazz 24 is supremely tasty and one of, if not the best jazz station I have ever listened to. I go back to WADO in New York, when Symphony Sid kept me up from midnight to 5:00 in the morning making my school days very long and sleepy. Whenever I want to listen to tasty jazz, I tune into Jazz24.

### 5/5 — My favorite music app!

*2025-09-30*

So glad Jazz24 has a dedicated app now and I can stream directly from the station! This is the best jazz station in the world - a great variety of music, knowledgeable hosts, and minimal interruptions. It’s well worth my support!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review terrilee_nc and happy listening!

### 5/5 — wonderful station with no ad, classes you will recognize usually freshly arranged in fresh ways

*2025-09-22*

this station is an ad for Nonprofit with incredible song selection that will make any day a better day. So good for play in the background while you’re working! Studio sessions, very knowledgeable DJs, you will be hooked!

### 5/5 — Great station

*2025-09-13*

My wife discovered Jazz 24 on her computer while trying to find a jazz station she enjoyed. I listened to it while on tour in China, Hong Kong, Japan, London, and around the US. It kept me in touch with home.

### 5/5 — Solid!

*2025-09-13, version 6.3.8*

Working like a Charm down here in Tasmania, on iPad and iPhone11 with iOS 18.6.2 on BT through Polk Assist Smart Speaker … just GREAT JAZZ!

### 5/5 — Pure Jazz, No Nonsense

*2025-09-12, version 6.3.8*

I’ve been using Jazz24 for a little while now and I’m really impressed. The music selection is consistently excellent, the app itself is simple and easy to use, and best of all — no annoying ads breaking up the flow. It’s rare to find a music app that just lets the music play without constant interruptions, and Jazz24 does that perfectly. Smooth, reliable, and genuinely enjoyable. Highly recommended for any jazz fan.

### 4/5 — Mostly good

*2025-09-09, version 6.3.8*

Possibly not for the purists as there’s a lot of MOR and borderline easy listening but still a lot of good stuff, contemporary artists I’m new to 👍 Presenters a bit variable but at least they have them!

### 5/5 — First rate jazz app

*2025-09-04*

Jazz 24 is my default radio music app. I appreciate that there are minimal interruptions, and the music content is consistent 24/7.
It has also been my refuge when I travel internationally as I prefer to rely on the station’s selections rather than my own playlist. And I can check the playlist to know who played that track  
The latest version of the app was a nice improvement.

### 5/5 — Good music to drive Uber by

*2025-09-02, version 6.3.8*

That’s my review

### 5/5 — Fantastic jazz 24/7 with no adds. What else do you want?

*2025-08-31, version 6.3.8*

A beautiful station, excellent jazz of all varieties, wonderful choices of music 24/7 - simply the soundtrack of my day. And did I mention, no adds!

### 5/5 — Glad to have this

*2025-08-30*

What a treasure to have this music. I lived in Seattle for 20 years until about 12 years shop and always enjoyed the jazz programming on KPLU. Now I’m in California and can still get great jazz wherever I want.

**Developer response:** Hi teletdf, 

Happy to hear that you are enjoying the new app and that you can still listen to your favorite jazz station! Happy listening!

*2025-08-30*

**Developer response:** Glad that you are enjoying the music heckster79! Thanks for downloading and using our app!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — New UI is cluttered and outdated

*2025-09-20*

I have been Jazz24 listener for many years and donating yearly.
But the new app design is horrific! If I want to have have web page I would just go there, don’t need new app.
The point of an app was just to do the listening experience and then you can add link to the web site for news etc.
It is so distracting from the actual music experience, I find myself switching to other jazz stations more frequently.
Please reconsider your design choice or you will start loosing long time listeners like myself and discourage new ones just because of this clumsy “new” app.

### 1/5 — Something wrong with app

*2022-12-03, version 2.0.7*

App shuts down after a few seconds. This is a new problem and very frustrating.  A great station.  Please fix soon.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2022-11-24, version 2.0.7*

Latest updates have made the app practically unusable. Plays for a couple minutes, then shuts down.

### 1/5 — Not Compatible iOS 12

*2018-10-11, version 2.0.2*

This app doesn’t work well with iOS 12. It continues to run, consuming power and bandwidth, even when paused and in background.

### 2/5 — Still Great Music

*2025-08-24*

The new format is too busy for my brain. Thankfully, I can reach the music eventually but I always feel like I’m doing something wrong when I make my selection.

**Developer response:** Hi Eliscott2, 

Thank you for the feedback. We launch the app directly to the listening page for ease of access. If you need any help listening or operating the app, please reach out to us at info@jazz24.org. 

Thanks, 
Jazz24

### 2/5 — Plays fine, but ...

*2014-06-25, version 1.0*

Two main complaints. One is that the album artwork and title of song playing are featured small at the bottom of the screen. The large image in the main part of the screen is a slide show of generic promo images.
The second is that the song name and artist are not output via Bluetooth (haven't checked USB). When playing in my car, it always says "You are listening to Jazz24/Jazz24".

### 3/5 — No timer to turn off automatic.

*2025-10-08, version 6.3.8*

No 30 min off switch is inconvenient at bed time. So I can’t play the tunes.

### 3/5 — What Happened to the Album Art?

*2025-09-06*

I’m not happy to have to look at the same “newsy” looking things over and over. I miss the Album Art being large enough to see. I am a great fan of the music & comments. I consider this to be more of of fund raising effort than entertainment. I am a monthly sustainer & will continue to be one!

**Developer response:** Hi, 

Thanks a bunch for your feedback! We’re always on the lookout for ways to make the Jazz24 app even better for our listeners and fans. We’ll definitely keep your comments in mind as we continue to update the app. If you have any more feedback or would like to talk to us directly, feel free to reach out to us at: info@jazz24.org. 

Thanks,

### 3/5 — Bring back simpler design

*2025-08-30*

Really don’t like the new layout. The music play screen should be just that, links to news or videos are just clutter and can go elsewhere and bright white background is jarring. The former minimalist design was great.

**Developer response:** Hi Duped uncle, 

Thank you for your comments and sorry that you are not enjoying the new app. We are always looking at ways to improve the experience and will take your feedback into consideration for future updates. 

Thanks for your feedback and please feel free to reach out to us at info@jazz24.org if you would like to provide more feedback.

### 3/5 — Audio Control Missing

*2015-11-30, version 2.0*

Great station and use the app all the time.  Latest update removed audio volume control when connected to my Apple TV.  Please restore audio controls for all modes...

### 5/5 — The best of the best

*2026-06-17*

Can’t say enough about this spectacular listener-supported resource. Excellent jazz, expertly curated and presented live by knowledgeable and warm DJs. I love you Jazz 24! Former PNW resident now in Southeast Asia.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-05-08*

This is the only Jazz app I have on my phone. It’s awesome, have it playing all day at home, streaming via airplay. Works flawlessly!

### 5/5 — It’s all in the name

*2026-05-05*

This IS World Class jazz radio! Jazz24 is my go-to for my jazz fix. I have it on all day while I’m working and it makes my workday so much easier to handle. LOVE this app!

### 5/5 — My Happy Place

*2026-04-05, version 6.3.8*

Jazz 24 was my quiet guide as I navigated working from home at my kitchen table during the pandemic. It continues to be the soundtrack to reflective and productive moments. Thank you so much for keeping me moving forward in both tough times and times of joy.

### 5/5 — Best music app

*2026-03-11*

I love this app. The sound is great and is accurate as advertised Truly 24 hour jazz.

### 5/5 — Great variety

*2026-03-08, version 6.3.8*

My style of jazz

### 5/5 — All day long.

*2026-03-01, version 6.3.8*

I have an old iPhone running all day streaming jazz to my Homepod Minis. Wonderful.

### 5/5 — Great Music Selection; Great App

*2026-01-29*

The app always just works. Easy to use, easy to navigate one of the best apps I use for reliability.

### 5/5 — Great jazz and ‘liner notes’

*2026-01-26, version 6.3.8*

Great jazz, good DJs who don’t intrude, and the availability to see the album without stopping the music

### 5/5 — A good mix of jazz styles and moods

*2026-01-25*

Very glad this exists.  Wish they had what some apps I’ve seen have where for any given tune you could click for more info or buy but maybe that would require a lot more resources.
