Fix this and I may be able to use it long enough to give it a review. ### 1/5 — Doesn't play in background! *2013-03-10* I work weekends and can't watch the race at work. This won't play in the background! I have to keep the app running and my screen on or else it shuts down! Completely worthless for me ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Total junk *2016-08-21* Can only listen to a live broadcast for a few minutes before app crashes. Good thing PRN only carries a handful of the races - wonder why that is... All reviews say this and yet the app hasn't been updated in two years... Wake up PRN!!!!! ### 1/5 — Crashes like a NASCAR rookie *2016-07-17* Crashed unpredictability while listening to race broadcasts. Why does nascar allow their races to be broadcast on PRN and MSNBC? ### 1/5 — Crap *2016-02-28* 15-30 seconds of live racing and then it crashes and locks up your device. Don't bother downloading. Just pray the race is on the radio or MRN. ### 1/5 — Pitiful *2014-11-03* Great app if you like 15 to45 second bursts of live racing I gave it the shakes and dumped it ### 1/5 — No Good *2014-06-14* Waste of time and space. Can't hear the race. Only talk shows. Must download I heart radio. Then you can hear the race. ### 1/5 — Screen saver?!! *2014-03-17* I downloaded the app and it would never open. Tried several times, it appears to be nothing more than a screenshot of their logo. ### 1/5 — Listen live does not work. *2013-10-13* No good. ### 1/5 — Not a great app *2013-10-13* Not the best app to listen to races ### 1/5 — Sorry cannot process your request *2013-07-01* Downloaded the app hoping to listen to the race this past weekend only to be able not to. Keep getting index.htm sorry cannot process your request message. Want to like the app, but can't even use it!!! Please update or correct the bugs. ### 1/5 — Won't run in background - Really?!?!? *2013-03-17* This app would be great if it would play in the background. As is, it's just a battery killer, cause you have to have the phone fully open for it to work, and all that does is shorten battery life. What could be a 5star app is a 0-1star app at this point. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — My Go To *2025-01-15* I Love this app. I love the shows Fast Talk and Pit Reporters.My only complaint is when I’m at the track there wasn’t such a delay between what’s going on the track and broadcast ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2013-07-13* Just what I needed :D ### 5/5 — Great app for listening to the race *2013-05-28* I downloaded this app at the Coca Cola 600 so I could listen to the race broadcast. I didn't even know it existed but found it in a search. It has the same 60 second or so delay that you get on the radio, but it did the trick for me. I also listened in my car on the way home. This is great to have so I don't have to find the local station broadcast when I'm out of town. Overall a very good app. ### 5/5 — Much Needed *2013-03-07* This is great! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2013-03-07* This is what I need out on the road. This way I don't have to surf stations looking for the race. I would suggest putting a link to it on your website. It took some time to find it on the App Store. Thanks for the app! ### 4/5 — Please fix background playback. *2013-03-08* Love the app! The only problem is it won't play in background. ### 3/5 — Hot garbage *2022-10-17* The app works. I downloaded it to stream a race but found the sound quality was turned down as low as they could. I ended up using a NASCAR track to listen and it had much higher quality audio. ### 3/5 — Good but needs a bug fix *2014-04-07* Live race coverage is decent but app goes into pause mode with auto lock on iOS devices. Set auto lock time at "never" to correct, but that bug needs fixing. Lots of "dead air" due to ad contracts could be minimized with more creative ad sales too. ### 2/5 — Needs an update *2018-02-13* Can’t get fast talk to play... just buffers. Having to go to the website ### 2/5 — Needs to run in background *2013-03-17* Good app to make up for the NASCAR Mobile 13 which dumps out of live broadcast 10 seconds after the race for some reason. But to listen to these shows and post-race this app needs to run in the background so you can do other things on your phone. Needs to be updated please. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
