Outdated App

It is 2026. Streaming technology has progressed to the point an”app” should function without dropouts. It is time to update beyond 1999 performance.

This is an old “app” that is buggy and has issues with dropping out.

ate battery

Got this app yesterday. Worked fine. listened for a while and stopped it. A few hours later my phone got a low power alert. Battery said it was the wfmt app. Have to kill it when you stop listening.

Great station, poor app

I love the station, but this app is substandard. Streaming is so incredibly touchy that any interruption, however momentary (phone call, turning off audio output device, alarm, etc.) causes a stoppage, which necessitates a relaunch. This makes the app’s on-demand feature basically worthless.
