Triggering headlines on app
I’m a Mamamia Out Loud lover and subscriber so liked to use the app to check on podcasts. However the app itself opens onto their news page which always has intense personal stories about serious harms to women and children. I’ve tried changing the settings to show entertainment up front but there isn’t that option. I care about these issues deeply but seeing them everyday causes me anxiety so I’ve had to delete the app and now just listening to the podcast directly in the Apple Podcasts app.

Needs TLC
My main use for this app is pods on the phone, sadly the former app was far more user friendly and less buggy. The new interface makes it confusing to see where my shows and episodes are. Would love to revert back to the grid where show icons were smaller but easier to find at a glance. Episodes will often replay from the start if you exit the app and go back in which is kind of frustrating too. I prefer to use my desktop if reading articles or looking at the other Mamamia content so I can’t really speak to those feature features on the app. I really enjoy Mamamia but sadly the app is a bit of a letdown.

Tech Issues
I have had ongoing tech issues with the app. The content often does not load so you cannot listen. I have contacted the Mamamia team about this but the issue keeps reoccurring. The app will also often not save where you listened to in a podcast making it hard to find where you finished.
Spinning wheel of doom
The settings won’t load. The spinning wheel of doom stays on the screen until I force close the app. I can’t access any settings. Very frustrating
Love the pods….not the app
Sadly, the recent app overhaul has been pretty disappointing. Interface aside, every time I go to Podcasts and tap on a show the app crashes and my phone reverts to the home screen. I loved the previous version of the app as there were never glitches when listening to all the amazing podcasts Mamamia puts together. I have updated my phone updated the app and still it continues. Happy to try anything the app developer may suggest?

New update
Hi there, the new update has quite a few bugs and not very user friendly.
1. The app keeps on asking for login info. This is not a bank account it should not be looking for login information every time
2. App often times goes into a previous version from a few weeks ago and needs a hard close and open to get back to new version
3. The images and layout are often askew on the app. Makes me think it was developed with a web version first in mind and app to be a retrofitted version of that second.
4. I am a big podcast fan and right now I can’t find the latest ones easily. Previous version had a list that automatically showed you the latest up top.

Unusable App
The quality of the app has been getting worse and worse over the years. I use to frequently have to restart my phone a couple of times a week to get the podcast section to appear again, annoying but manageable. Now it is constantly crashing mid listen every time and despite restarting the podcast section is still blank. I haven’t listened to a subscriber podcast on it in weeks as it’s all too hard to get it to work.

Can’t access podcasts!
As a subscriber it’s really frustrating when the app continually glitches and I can’t access the podcasts. Please improve!
Love
Really enjoy choosing from a variety of podcasts
New app is on point!
Lucky enough to trial what’s to come and looking forward to everyone seeing the update that will be coming ☺️
Great refresh
The new interface and look is awesome. So clean easy to navigate and the content pops
Clean, efficient, great to use!
I really like this new version of the app. Simple, easy and clean design. Works well!
Great content.. yet..
Ap is really annoying, hard and clunky to use, someone needs to simplify it. One of many things ~ If you stop listening to a podcast it doesn’t save so u have to go back try and find it and start again. It’s actually really annoying.
A Positive News Service
I love the variety of stories and news that is factual and not just clickbait. Stories are to the point, often funny, short & sharp.
Mamamia is great, the app is not
Love MM and have done for years but this app is so buggy - not allowing me to comment, having to close and re-open to get podcasts to work, never refreshing without a forced refresh, and now I can’t click on any Mamamia stories from social media. Wish they’d scrap this app and build a better one.
👍🏻
Im a M Plus subscriber, and now that the additional podcasts are available on Apple I’m a happy gal! Great to have all my podcasts in one place
The app has its glitches, but now that I’m not wholly replying on it for my podcasts, it’s a far more enjoyable user experience

Good content but app glitches
The website is great. So too the podcasts. But the app has a lot of problems and often doesn’t work. Please fix!
Terrible user experience on the app
I love MamaMia content, and all the voices that makeup the brand. It’s why I pay for a subscription to access bonus content. However, the app is very buggy, especially when loading and playing podcast content. I would love if subscribers could access their bonus content through the Apple Podcast app, or Spotify, it’s a much better experience.

Feedback is Important!
Absolutely love MM and an MPlus subscriber. But the app is so glitchy it’s almost unusable. Opening the podcast section - not only is it not refreshed, it’s showing the most recent episode as one from six months ago. There’s no pull down refresh, you have to leave the section and navigate back. Sometimes when you return to the app while playing a podcast, it continues playing but the app displays an error message and all the play buttons disappear. My download queue is telling me I have 10 in queue, but only 6 are showing and the rest are displaying as empty cells. Please either fix the podcast section of the app, or enable subscribers to access through Apple Podcasts.

Love the app and the content but..
I have to delete and reinstall every couple of weeks as all of the sudden I can’t listen to podcasts without it being open on my phone.. so as soon as my screen locks it’s stops! Thanks
