Have to reinstall app to get it back. Very annoying. ### 1/5 — No alarm or live feed *2019-02-19* Since update, can no longer wake up to news. Used to be able to press play to listen to news in the morning and now that doesn’t work. The visual is nice to look at news. App is not good for listening since there is no audio now. 😒 ### 1/5 — App no good after upgrade. *2019-02-07* Can’t play radio. Play button just buffers. ### 1/5 — Very disappointed! *2019-02-07* Your updated app is a huge disappointment. I had been using your app nearly everyday, and I find this new version a step backwards from where it was. My main complaint is there is no place on the home page to see what’s playing and be able to listen live. There are a couple nice things, the 3 things you need to know, and easy access to podcasts are helpful additions. But, When I go to the podcast and click on a show and listen for a while, then go back to the home page the only way to listen live again is to completely exit and close the app. I get it’s supposed to play what’s live by pressing play but the podcast does not shut off. I also have to say that the app shuts off often. It’s not in my reception, it just quits. So overall I would give it a half star but 1 is as low as it goes. ### 1/5 — Go back to your old app *2019-01-03* Recent app upgrade added all kinds of interface changes most people don’t need. But the streaming radio—the one reason I use it, turned to crap. Doesn’t work half the time. ### 1/5 — No sound *2015-02-25* Drops sound and won't come back on!! Please fix!! Love the station hate the app!! ### 1/5 — Change is bad *2012-02-09* Bring the old design back. Audio won't play at all, and your website isn't smart phone friendly either. Please fix your app!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible App...Love the Station *2011-05-18* I listen to this station 8-9 hours a day. The radio in my car stopped working so I downloaded the app to listen in my car. It stops continuously even when you're in 3G areas. And forget it in the extended network areas. I don't know what the previous reviewer was talking about but it needs to be fixed. Sorry to give such a bad review but I'm frustrated because I want to hear the excellent content. ### 2/5 — ‘New version’ *2019-03-22* Have ya heard the phrase: “don’t fix what isn’t broke”? Your new version blows. It just does ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Back up and running *2011-05-26* Sweet they are back on the air after the storm ### 5/5 — Works good without crashing *2011-04-11* Seems to stream audio even over the Edge network ### 5/5 — New app *2011-04-10* What do you think of the new KZRG app. The new features, wakeup alarm, the local news and stream. ### 4/5 — It's what you need. *2013-11-24* It's not the most beautiful app in the world, but it is what you need. News. ### 2/5 — News section not showing any articles *2018-10-11* App stopped working after iOS 12 update on my phone. I used this app daily to spot check weather & especially local news. I suspect you are aware, but maybe not. The news feed is totally blank & says “Hello World” , with prompting for it to be edited. ### 2/5 — Sound drops out *2013-04-18* After loading the app, the sound drops out after a few minutes and then it won't connect again. Very frustrating during a storm. Even when I try to report a problem, the website won't respond. ### 2/5 — Worked once *2011-05-24* Worked immediately following download. No longer playing sound. If working I would give 4 stars. Very useful during storm...please keep updating. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
