### 3/5 — Love KUNC but app repeats short segments

*2026-06-23*

This app has a tendency to repeat segments and then is behind on the live stream. I’ve tried re-installing it but that doesn’t fix it.

### 3/5 — Love KUNC, but this app has some issues

*2026-05-07*

I am a frequent user of this app and it’s generally quite good with the exception that it doesn’t properly track where it is in a given story and repeats 10 to 30 minute segments all the time… as in every time I use the app this happens three or four times. Not catastrophic but pretty irritating.

### 4/5 — —

*2026-03-17, version 7.4.1*

Keeps me in touch with Colorado

### 4/5 — Very Useful

*2025-12-29*

The app is now my preferred method to listen. I enjoy feeling connected when traveling - both domestically and internationally. I have found that the app may stop and repeat 5-10 seconds of programming. This happens several times a week.

### 3/5 — Difficult to get started

*2025-11-22*

Several times this month, I gave up on the app because it would not open.

### 3/5 — Strange looping

*2025-10-04*

Lately the app has been repeating sentences in the middle of a story in a way that makes it difficult to understand. It talks over itself. I have deleted and reinstalled the app, but it still does it. It also does it on a different device. I hope they fix this problem soon.

### 3/5 — App Review

*2025-03-16*

App is unreliable for getting KUNC air time. Usually is ok; but more frequently are times when it will not play-this despite deleting and reinstalling the app.
Content is of course 5 star- app itself has been disappointing more recently

### 4/5 — Love KUNC

*2023-01-22, version 4.5.61*

I love this station and the app is a pretty good way to get it.

### 4/5 — Still not reliable even after “fix”

*2020-05-19*

These 2 stations are my favorite however even after the latest “fix” the Colorado Sound drops several times a day.  Stations get a 5.  App reliability gets a 3.  After a while it just gets too aggravating.  Still my top 2 choices for listening even tho I’m in Denver.  Margo is the best!

### 5/5 — Use it every day

*2019-11-03*

Have this app on my iPhone and iPad and use it daily, mostly read the articles but listen to it sometimes in places the radio reception is not reliable.  I am a member and appreciate the fact that KUNC provides this in addition to being a great, reliable news source over the airwaves.

### 3/5 — Advertisements?

*2019-10-10*

This app works well and it’s great to listen to my favorite public radio station on my iPad BUT I hate the advertising interruptions injected over the programs.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-01-25, version 3.9.25*

App works great and NPR and KUNC  keeps me informed!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The App Frequently Drops

*2023-04-16, version 4.5.61*

Self explanatory. It quits while streaming and most often won’t restart when you tap play.

### 1/5 — Very unreliable

*2022-03-04*

The app is constantly buffering for extended periods of time even when I have strong cellular signal.  Additionally,  if I try to start the stream then throw my phone in my pocket I ALWAYS have to take it back out and hit play again after the message asking me to donate.  Very annoying.  I might try out the CPR app to see if it’s any better.

### 1/5 — Screen

*2022-02-02*

Using my iPad, this app opens on half the screen so no play button appears. Have to delete app & reload. 
Takes a while to load.
When it works I enjoy this.

### 1/5 — Love NPR but this app is garbage.

*2019-12-12*

Every day, every single day, it is a struggle to get it to open. Says there is no network when there clearly is for everythi every day, every single day, it is a struggle to get it to open. Says there is no network when there clearly is.

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2019-01-20, version 3.9.25*

This app crashes as least twice before I can get it to stay “open.” Every. Single. Time.

### 1/5 — What happened!?

*2018-02-12, version 3.8.44*

I used to listen every morning. Then after the last update, it stopped. It makes my mornings sad. I miss KUNC.

### 2/5 — Not the best

*2023-06-24*

It drops off frequently and often just stops altogether. Won’t be using it much.

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2022-09-28*

I love KUNC and listen to it every day. But this app is a huge problem. It goes off frequently with no warning and stays off for so long I have to listen to another station. If I had another app for KUNC, I would use it.

### 2/5 — Versatility

*2020-06-26, version 4.4.48*

Not versatile at all. I think that it needs updates here and there.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2018-09-29*

I’ve had issues recently with app crashing shortly after opening. I’ve reinstalled with no change.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2024-10-16*

I love this app!  I live in Pennsylvania and when I need to get the Colorado “feels” I just turn it on. Or if I miss something on my local npr station, I know I can catch it on KUNC.

### 5/5 — Use it every day

*2020-01-03*

I can’t get radio reception in my bedroom and bathroom so I use this app every morning while I’m getting ready. It’s reliable and the audio is clear.

### 5/5 — Great NPR station & app.

*2019-12-22, version 4.4.11*

Allows me to get to KUNC quickly.

### 5/5 — KUNC

*2019-11-23*
