Moved away but still get to partake

Thank you!! I feel so at home when I’m making a new home outside of the Louisville Metro.

Excellent App

This is a great app for local Kentucky news, music, & even perusing old podcasts that are no longer produced but local to just Louisville/KY. There are also some NPR podcasts on here.

I depend on LPM!

I often travel to places just out of reach of WFPL. I love to stream the app if there is a chance I might go out of range. It is easy to use to stream over my car speakers. THANKS!!

Essential for being in Louisville Metro area

LPM is a vital news source and network to understand what is happening here in the Louisville MSA, but also the broader world. Can’t recommend it enough and I donate monthly, you should too.

The best NPR station in the country!

Appreciate the iPad support!

I have no idea when this support was added, but it’s so nice to not just be an iPhone app blown up.

All request Mental Health day never fails to lift me up.

Great Station Lville is so lucky

There are NO stations like WFPK & LPM in Cincinnati. So glad I can get access to it thru the app.

Kentuckiana NPR access

Recent app redesign is huge improvement. Story headlines now fully available and not truncated. LPMs local news and reporting is outstanding and is the star of this app. The only addition would be to access NPR national programs like Weekend Edition Saturday and Sunday, Morning, Edition, and All Things Considered in the Podcasts section.

Great music!

Love this app!

Amazing App

This app does everything I need it to do easily and efficiently.

great station. great app.

i’ve been following lpm (90.5) for years now and i was so happy to see there was an app. i haven’t had any problem with the app yet. no buffering. easy to navigate. 10/10

Love it

Been fan of the radio for nearly 20 years, love the alternative selection of songs that take you to a different direction of feelings, a delight for a music person like me. Plus there’s something about the frequency, mood it gets you, ambiance, etc. keep it up guys, love your work.

Works Great

Works great. Love the timer; use it most nights when I’m trying to get to sleep. Love being able to jump to web site to read / reread selected news items.

Good station, crappy app

Not sure why they got a new app. The old one worked just fine — better, in fact, than its replacement, which not only buffers all the time (sometimes several times per hour), but then makes you ensure yet-another advertisement (er, sponsor message) before rebooting. As one other commenter noted, it’s no longer community radio; it’s commercial radio.

Much Improved

The dev team deserves to take a victory lap (and maybe a raise) for transforming what used to be a glitchy exercise in frustration and unrealized potential into a stable, enjoyable UX. Well done!

Bring Back the Old App

I really don’t like the new app.

—I have to take a roundabout route to find the WFPK Archives so I can listen to Relics.

—the new app doesn’t mark my place when returning to an archived show.

—when streaming an archived show I can’t drag the button to go back to where I was. This forces me to listen to content I’ve already heard.

Good

Good app good music

Better Local Focus, but....

I really like the redesign that highlights the radio stations under the Louisville Public media umbrella. Local news stories are highlighted and easier to access. That said, it seems more difficult to use this app as a portal to NPR programming. That results in me accessing this app less frequently. Rather than using this app to listen to morning edition or all things considered (which I often listen to at a time other than when aired) I go to NPR's instead.

Slow, jumpy, hard to use, no mute button anymore

The old app was fine. Not sure why they got rod of it.

A Real Step Backwards

First impression of the new app? Meh. Old app was really easy to use. This one? Nothing special. I expected more.
