A measured thinker

I am an electrician and actually wired the coffee shop next door to the studio. I would come in before everyone got in and have coffee with a lady who worked there… I have been in the booth twice, met Tarik the architect, and Dori Zori. I also took my wife to one of your live shows for our very first date! I’m friends with the owner of Dan-Dan, my family shops at Plant land, and the list goes on… I would love to guest DJ once before I get old.😊. You are truly a catalyst for change, and I will stay a supporting member as long as I can. Keep up the great work!

Love all the stations on here!

The sound quality is amazing and when I don’t enjoy a track I check out the other three station options. That’s the experience I want in an app!

Eats Data for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

I probably listened for 10 hours, so 600 minutes, but the app consumed 3GB data. That means the bitrate is 667kbps or practically lossless level. Unless the app is downloading stuff other than music? Seems like the app is malfunctioning.

88Nine is great though. Just would have rather paid them the overage charge though then my cell phone carrier :-(

Life changing radio station

100 stars out of 10 for the radio station. The app, however, leaves a lot to be desired. Why oh why isn’t the playlist embedded in the app like it used to be? Seems like everything I click on links to the website - like why would I use the app then? The app spontaneously closes very frequently - buggy! The app also automatically closes when I open Spotify (but not even playing anything in Spotify). This is frustrating given I’d like to keep listening while adding songs discovered on my personal Spotify playlists and exploring new artist Spotify pages. Can someone please fix these bugs? The original original app from back in the day is still probably the best and every new version keeps getting worse. My two cents as a long long time absolute LOVER of this station… It has changed my life and I can’t live without 88Nine. 10/8/2021

No updated set list

Have loved using this app for years but it’s been frozen on the same set list since January and doesn’t display the song title currently playing. Please please update! Part of why I listen is to find new music!

Fantastic Station

Convenient to listen to while in the shower or on a walk when away from the traditional radio. Have lived in the area a few years and 88.9 quickly became my favorite station ever.

Great, but

Need to be able to change orientation!

Love Radio Milwaukee on the go!

I love having 88.9 with me on the go. The app has some great updates and I love that they have a playlist so you can see what songs have been played and an download them.
However, the playlist sometimes gets stuck (for three days it kept showing the same songs and date).

Fantastic upgrade

Radio Milwaukee is that rare oasis where you can find new music without pretense. The DJs dig the music and play a mix of new music and old gems. This version of the app pushes cover art to your phone and a helpful list of songs played, thus ending long conversations with Siri and friends who don't know that hip new song you just heard. But you do.

Great app! Great station!

Great app

Never any issues. Live stream works great
Playlist is up to date. Love 88.9 def going to donate and become a member.
Thank you 88.9!

Great station, problems with the app

Decent app. Two problems. Number one: can't bring the playlist up. Number two; banner ad at the bottom covers up the airplay accessibility.
Great station. But these need to be fixed.

Good but needs repairs

Good first version, but the app kills when you try to access the 411 section. Fix that and it will be great!

Not working :(

The app has not worked well for a while now. I mainly use it to so what artist is playing. It no longer shows who the artist is - only lists "null."
Bummer

playlist

my playlist has null for every artist. drives me nuts when i'm trying to check who's singing.

Keeps buffering and repeating the "Supported by" message

Rebuffers every 15 seconds, can't figure it out.

Amazing!!

This application is incredible. I have been using it constantly once I downloaded it. I think what you guys stand for is incredible and support you in every way possible! Great music great energy. Bliss :)

Constantly buffering

This app has tons much potential. I just wish I could listen to a full song before the stream starts buffering. Nearly every other song played gets interrupted to buffer. What's more annoying is when the stream starts back up again a sponsorship spot plays for Maxie's Southern Comfort. I'm very tired of hearing it. It doesn't matter if I'm on wifi or on 4G LTE, the stream is always buffering.

Great Idea

Awesome idea. Great potential. But crashes before I can actually access anything in 414 Music. Bummer.

Great Music!

I love 88Nine as a station, but it always crashes when I go into 414 music! Please fix! It's about time!!
