Truly helps me to enjoy fellowship with God throughout the day. I like the ability to see the name of the song and artist on the app. ### 5/5 — FM Transmitter problem *2024-01-18, version 23.5.5* It’s great (except for George Beverly Shea, and his connection with Billy Graham), but recently my car’s FM transmitter stopped connecting to my iPhone to play this app. Does anyone have any suggestions? Feel free to comment in a review. ### 5/5 — Excellent music *2024-01-02, version 23.5.5* As I go on with my daily shores, I have the station on to help me through the day. Soft and pleasant music that honors GOD and our Lord Jesus Christ. ### 5/5 — Thank you!! *2023-11-17, version 23.5.5* I do love singing/listening along with the old hymns. So thankful for this. THANK YOU!!🙏 ### 5/5 — Great Music! *2023-11-14, version 23.5.5* Have enjoyed the great hymns I have known for years. I have the volume on low and let it Play all night. It is so comforting to wake and here the words softly playing!! ### 5/5 — Music to sleep with! *2023-10-29, version 23.5.5* I love Christian music to sleep with each night, so thankful for this music!! ### 5/5 — Best Christian Music anywhere! *2023-10-07, version 1.0* You can’t beat this music on any other radio station. Excellent planning of Proper Christian music. I love it & listen all the time. Thank you Michael McFadden! ### 5/5 — What a BLESSING! *2023-10-05, version 1.0* Absolutely my favorite radio station! I was sooo thrilled when I found it! NO ADS! And it’s all old hymns, Scripture hymns and newer hymns in the old style! Contemporary Christian music is ok if that’s all you can get; but this is far superior! The music has so much Scripture and theology in it! It is very healing and encouraging! I have a lot of health problems, and nothing ministers to my soul like this music does! When I feel I can’t go on, can’t bear the pain any more, this station is my lifeline! Sometimes I play it all night long so I can be ministered to while I sleep —- sometimes it’s the only way I can get to sleep, because I can feel the nearness of my Savior through the music! God bless you for starting this station! ### 5/5 — Thank You Thank you *2023-07-30, version 1.0* Finally found christiam music that is heaven sent. What a glorious relief ! ### 5/5 — 💟Love the Old Hymns *2023-07-29, version 1.0* There’s something special about the old hymns. Reminds me of a better time, grandparents, family, traditional unending values. ### 5/5 — Thankful *2023-05-09, version 1.0* So very glad to listen to hymns and spiritual songs that bring back wonderful memories and draw me closer to the Lord . Thank you so much. ### 5/5 — Thank you much *2023-04-20, version 1.0* Please dont ever give up on this channel please. I love it dearly. ### 5/5 — Thank you!! *2023-03-07* I miss hearing the old hymns which I find so meaningful. So thankful this came up in my search. Please don't stop! God's Blessings on your ministry!! ### 5/5 — Thoroughly enjoyable *2023-02-22, version 1.0* I have been looking for something that would play the traditional Christian music and this app is perfect. Thank you , I listen daily to this now. ### 5/5 — Grateful *2023-02-05, version 1.0* So wonderful hearing the hymns I grew up with. Churches now days don’t really hear the hymns of yesterdays but new Christian music which is okay, but they tend to the younger generations. Thank you very much for this app. May the Lord bless you and your team for this wonderful app. ### 5/5 — Beautiful Music *2023-01-23, version 1.0* I’m just wondering how do I get it to the Regular Old Christian Music? Right now it’s on the music app, just under the original version I Love. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App rating, not content *2025-01-14, version 23.5.5* Music rating is 5 stars. App was too until recently when it started showing that it was using 76% of my battery even when it wasn’t being used. Tried adjusting settings to no avail. Battery that used to last over 24 hours was almost dead in less than 12. Uninstalled app and battery drain is gone. Hope this issue with the app gets resolved. ### 2/5 — 😐 *2021-10-17, version 1.0* I’m sorry but I find it kind of rude from what your are saying it sounds like your saying Christian rock or any other type of Christian music is not godly only hymns are ### 2/5 — My go-to for pure music with no additives *2020-08-01, version 1.0* * July 30, 2020 review update: I went to this apps website to submit a $900 tithe donation but changed my mind once I saw the inaccurate political propaganda there regarding Black Lives Matter. I wish to give my tithe to God not Cesar. How unfortunate that this otherwise wonderful, godly blessing is tainted with the mark of the beast, deceptively disguised as the false god of Christian right wing politics. Original review from a few days ago: I have several non-commercial Christian music apps on my devices but this is the sole one with music only. 1. At first, it was my go-to when I wanted to listen to only music. 2. Then I realized it was the only Christian radio station I knew that didn’t play SRN News and Propaganda on the hour. I began switching to this app quickly beforehand. 3. By now, I’ve found it’s all I listen to other than the Bible approx an hour/day, and some straight-up Jazz and classical music. I’m tithing to it first time this weekend. Thank you so much for all your Christ-exalting efforts and helpfully healing, music-only ministry. My one request is that nightly after approx 9 pm EST, you only play the more mellow, relaxing ones rather than stirring, energizing ones. I like to put on your fabulous sleep timer and fall asleep to your beautiful Christian music. Therefore, I desire mellow selections after 9 pm EST because they are much more conducive to sleep than energizing selections. Thank you for considering my request. God bless you. A regular check is coming your way. 🙏🏼🙌🏼 ### 4/5 — Excellent music *2026-01-19, version 23.5.5* Excellent music with mostly excellent words. Some of the lyric content is focused on Baptist theology, which is up for debate. According to the Scriptures we can be freed from sin, and if not we are none of His (Christ’s). Most of the content is very good, though, and I greatly appreciate it. ### 4/5 — Quiet and deep praise *2023-10-31, version 23.5.5* I especially love to hear my all-time favorite, George Beverly Shea. I deeply miss the alarm feature that has been removed. I enjoyed waking up to Christian hymns. If that could be added again, it would be great ### 4/5 — Enjoyed the traditional, popular hymns sung with words *2020-11-03, version 1.0* I have been enjoying your refreshed selection of traditional hymns since the pandemic happened. I am sorry you have gone back to more instrumental selections and more obscure hymns. My guess is that copyright holders gave you special permission to play their more popular selections which are the ones in the hymnals of nonelectronic churches. Please bring back Fanny Crosby and the like hymns sung with great piano and orchestration. ### 5/5 — My favorite radio station *2026-02-25, version 23.5.5* This is different from other Christian radio apps. Good music not banging loud and no commercials. I can listen to this all day and feel lifted while singing praise to the Lord. Nice change from a today’s music. ### 5/5 — Great Station *2025-06-17, version 23.5.5* Songs from my youth, and beyond, bringing back memories! ### 5/5 — Pure and Heavenly Music *2025-03-10, version 23.5.5* Since Ii recently discovered this radio, I have had divine peace. I NJ ow play it day and night and I feel so close to God. Hep with with the link to buy some of the music playing in your online radio station. SMS Men's Chorale, Principle Music, Soundforth among others. They're not available easily yet are or immense blessing to our the soul that listens. I recommend this station to all, from the living unborn to the oldest on earth.

So happy to have access to this music. Thankful they have preserved these songs, this music is not available anywhere else. ### 5/5 — Soul stirring *2024-02-09, version 23.5.5* Some of the songs are ones that I sing in church, which I love. Also the combination of instrumental and singing is wonderful and commercial free is great.
