Not good ### 5/5 — Great NHPR app! *2024-02-04, version 4.6.26* This sustaining member loves the new app. Very intuitive! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2023-12-29, version 4.6.26* Makes listening so easy. ### 3/5 — How buggy are thou? Let me count the ways… *2022-09-14* How thee crashes and crashes and crashes yet again. Verily thy ad about streaming support doth play far too oft and for too long. Frequently have I deleted and reinstalled the post a persistent crash from which it doth refuse to recover. ### 4/5 — Useful! *2022-08-09* I use the NHPR app while traveling so I don’t have to search out other NPR stations. Definitely saves my aggravation during a long drive ### 5/5 — First time user *2022-07-19* I usually listen on the radio. Today that wasn’t possible so tried the app. Works great! ### 5/5 — I love it! *2022-05-20, version 4.5.36* I love NHPR and the app. It keeps me connected to NHPR whether I’m in NH, VT or Ohio (and beyond). ### 5/5 — Quick and easy *2022-03-16* Very easy to use. A quick way to listen to the radio :) ### 3/5 — App needs work *2022-03-01* I love NHPR, but almost every day I have to delete and reinstall the app for lack of access. Sometimes several times a day! This is especially frustrating if there is something I want to catch right away or continue after listening in the car. For NPR news programs, I often have to listen to maine public because it is more accessible! I live in Durham and contribute monthly to nhpr.
