### 1/5 — Horrible App

*2019-11-07, version 5.1.61*

This used to be one of my favorite apps... I could listen to The Ticket anywhere! But here lately it plays for maybe a minute and then stops. Then I have to listen to the ad before it will load again... c’mon guys... get this freakin app working!!

### 1/5 — Same problem

*2019-11-06, version 5.1.61*

Keeps shutting off

### 1/5 — Disconnects audio

*2019-11-06, version 5.1.61*

Audio won’t stay connected on WiFi or cellular. I have to listen to Norm sell Sante 10 times every morning trying to listen to the musers.

### 1/5 — App crashes.

*2019-10-31, version 5.1.61*

The app crashes after 3 min of listening to it.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2019-10-29, version 5.1.61*

The app is nearly 100% useless for listening to live radio. I can deal with the opening ad, but the buffer time after that is 5+ minutes and that is if the audio feed even starts. Many time I have to exit and try again and then I get Norm and his ad 

The app can’t handle switching from WiFi to cellular. They kills the audio stream. 

The app can’t handle running in the background. You have to keep it open and the screen active for any chance to have the audio keep playing. 

I only use to listen to Dallas Stars’ games when I walk my dog and I cert single commercial break during the game the audio stream rejoins the game a handful of seconds late. You are the radio station of the Dallas Stars and you can’t return to the game audio on time. 

Useless and frustrating app.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2019-10-28, version 5.1.61*

Same issue with lock screen, happened right after new update on iPhone

### 1/5 — App stops working constantly

*2019-10-21, version 5.1.61*

Please fix. It times out almost constantly now.

### 1/5 — Won’t stay on

*2019-10-21, version 5.1.61*

Come on guys, thought we solved this issue 3 years ago. It’s back now.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2019-10-21, version 5.1.61*

The app constantly crashes, works fine for a few minutes then just shuts off. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — App closes

*2019-10-18, version 5.1.61*

The app used to work but now it just closes about 2 mins in and then I have to restart and listen to the same commercial before 2 more mins of listening. This is terrible. Please fix this app.

### 1/5 — App crashing with new iOS version

*2019-10-16, version 5.1.61*

I love The Ticket but your app is terrible. Please give it some love and update it to work with the latest iOS release. It consistently crashes after playing for about 30 seconds. It used to work fine but started crashing with iOS 13.1. I’m a long time P1 but live out of state now and am pretty bummed that I can’t listen anymore.

### 1/5 — Garbage app crashes constantly

*2019-10-14, version 5.1.61*

Don’t waste your time. Who ever developed this app is an idiot.

### 1/5 — Need an update...

*2019-10-12, version 5.1.61*

This app will not stay on with the latest 13 iso update.   Worked fine until the latest update...please fix it so I can continue to listen to your programs...

### 1/5 — Could it be more spare?

*2026-07-22, version 44.0.0*

Let’s have an app that can’t be minimized without pausing the stream. . Let’s also have an app with video ads that stops the stream. Terrible. Fix this…, Rich!

### 1/5 — The Worst!

*2025-05-04, version 41.0.0*

Couldn’t get to the content for over 5 minutes because of front loaded ads. Don’t understand this business model. Idiots!

### 1/5 — Headache

*2024-02-28*

Sometimes I just want to listen to some sports talk without having to watch this nightmarish 30 second video advertising their remote treatment center. I’ve never been less convinced to support addiction recovery. Should just go seamlessly into radio streaming, but cumulus has got to make their ad money I guess.

### 1/5 — Well, bye

*2023-08-09, version 36.0.0*

This party’s dead anyway.

### 1/5 — This app could be good - 1 star for app not The Ticket

*2023-02-27, version 32.4.0*

I am in my car for only a few minutes driving from work to home. When trying to listen to The Ticket, I am forced to listen to the ads every single time.  I have to listen to the ads again if I get a call, talk, hang up —- the the ad again.  Then if I want to continue listening, when I get out of my car, I have to listen to the ads again when the Bluetooth disconnects from the car.  I love listening to The Ticket!  But the ads are a whipping!

### 1/5 — Worst app on my phone

*2022-10-30, version 32.4.0*

I shouldn’t have to listen to the Sante’s ad every time I switch Bluetooth connections. This app suuuuuuucks.

### 1/5 — Needs MAJOR work

*2022-03-15, version 8.0.0*

Randomly crashes then makes you listen thru an advertisement every reconnection. Needs features like audacy where we can pause, rewind, and listen to earlier shows and segments. Spend the money and upgrade please

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on M1 Macs

*2021-06-15, version 6.18.0*

Doesn't load, just has a splash screen with Accept/Cancel, but you can't click Accept and there's nothing on the screen.  I presume it's some sort of license agreement you have to agree to, but you can't see it.  Really want to stream on the Mac!

### 1/5 — Play pause does not work

*2021-04-29, version 6.18.0*

That works fine but for some reason the play pause functions not work when the screen is locked I wish they would fix it

### 1/5 — Trash

*2020-11-04, version 6.18.0*

This app crashes more than my ex-wife putting on makeup in the morning... use at last resort...

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 4/5 — In the pro bowl yesterday....

*2018-01-30, version 5.1.61*

I would give it 5 stars but not until norm retires. The anus is clearly on anyone who doesn’t use this app while skiing on the weekends

### 3/5 — Need Apple Watch Support!

*2024-09-04, version 41.0.0*

We need the app to be available for the Apple Watch cellular without requiring the iPhone.

### 3/5 — DO NOT USE…GO TO SPORTSDAY APP

*2023-03-28, version 33.0.0*

Improved, but still largely pointless.  Only plays live; forces you to watch 30 second video advertisement each time it starts. Use the SportsDay Talk app. Only use this app in emergency if SportsDay app is down for some crazy reason.

### 3/5 — Works fine

*2022-09-02, version 14.0.0*

Only issue is you cant rewind back 1 hour.  Seems like only a phone app feature.

### 3/5 — Enlarge the buttons

*2020-03-19, version 6.11.0*

The app works again, thank you. However, the play/pause buttons are way to small, especially if you are trying to press it while driving. Please fix this.

### 3/5 — Great Radio Bad App

*2018-03-06, version 5.1.61*

Big P1 and glad I can listen anywhere. Wish the app would work correctly. Every 20 mins or so the audio stops. Close app and reopen.

### 3/5 — Seems to work ok on the audio clips at least (which are not on the Sportsday app anymore)

*2016-03-03*

I downloaded this app even though usually I don't want audio. Hate the ad you must fight thru every time you open the app - what a beating.  If that's going to bug you, I invite you to go somewhere else for your sports talk. I will gladly pay $1 to make that whip go away.  The anus is on the app developers to make that option available on the next upgrade. I wonder where they are getting their energy? Let's just say that those are the terms that this app is being talked about by just about everyone.

### 2/5 — Just awful

*2025-11-17, version 43.0.0*

Well the newest update fixed nothing.  I can’t guarantee you will hear the actual program you want but you WILL HEAR lots of adds and then “elevator hold music” over & over. Terrible APP for the #1 DFW radio station.  Garbage app.

### 2/5 — Need to Update App

*2019-10-10, version 5.1.61*

App continues to crash and each time I re-open I have to hear Norm tell me my addiction and illness are treatable!  Please make it stop!

### 2/5 — App stops constantly

*2019-10-09, version 5.1.61*

Will not run for more that 2-3 minutes without just closing.  Please fix as I miss my ticket.
