It will change the oil in your late model Japanese car. It can translate L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics into multiple ancient languages. It has been known to crash weddings and deliver friendly yet acerbic toasts. It will vouch for you in delicate courtroom situations. It's handsome. It makes kittens seem stupid and ugly and boring. It is good on pasta. ### 5/5 — obviously the best *2025-11-29, version 5.5.10* best radio best app best best best ### 5/5 — WFMU & app are the best EVER *2025-11-06, version 5.5.10* Greatest and most eclectic music curation and perfect app. Love the archive feature ### 5/5 — This app is surprisingly good. *2025-08-14, version 5.5.10* WFMU has outdone itself with this app. I’ve been listening to them every day since downloading this haha.

The app could work 2% of the time and it would still be a masterpiece I LOVE WFMU and crack baby. Friends with Tina? HAHA XD ### 5/5 — wish all radio stations had an app this nice *2024-09-05, version 5.5.10* super easy to start up has links to schedule, playlist, and chat nothing more needed. DON'T MESS IT UP. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Meh *2026-05-27, version 5.5.10* App keeps locking me out of the chat function. I’ve contacted support several times. Nada. ### 1/5 — Stream Buffering *2025-06-05, version 5.5.10* Many times, stream stops to buffer. Thanks! (Other streams don’t 8^) ### 1/5 — Great music, terrible app *2022-05-01, version 5.5.4* World’s greatest radio station, but the app is completely unnavigable. ### 1/5 — Wfmu is great *2009-08-15, version 0* They feature The Rampler every Friday night at 2am, and a bunch of other good shows too. ### 3/5 — Words *2024-07-07, version 5.5.10* Too many ### 4/5 — Love Dis Station!!!!!!! *2023-01-05* Every morning before school when I wake up I become a MINI GLISTENER. I love Wake ‘n’ Bake and Double Dip Recess. I hope this radio station continues for as long as eternity. I wish dat there were more games on the shows. I only hear games on Wake and bake and would like people to start getting into the spirit of games. Also on Wake ‘n’ Bake they should have questions that us kids would know. The only other thing I have to say is HAPPY NEW YEAR AND KEEP GLISTENING TO WFMU AND 91.1 FM! ### 4/5 — Station - Amazing. App - Rough *2021-12-10* Navigation is confusing - no way to read a playlist without playing the episode. Hard to tell what a show is all about. I would have each show with an intro icon you could scroll through, clickable genres too maybe so it’s easy to find all the shows that play punk? Each archived episode could have a simple page with a description and playlist listened and a play button, rather than having to start playing to read a playlist. Still enjoying! ### 4/5 — Great for music, not for battery life *2021-06-24, version 5.5.3* I love this station. I donate regularly. I love the music, the archives, the streaming. WFMU is like nothing else on this planet. But this app chewed up 68% of my battery in the last 24 hours. I know, finding someone to fix it is a problem. But, sorry, it is a problem. ### 4/5 — Excellent *2013-11-18, version 3.0.1* Fantastic functionality after previous bugs were fixed. An imcredible wealth of underground music shows to stream or download. Brilliant functions you hadn't even thought of. Designed with real care and attention. The best radio station app I've ever used. ### 4/5 — Simple and effective *2010-01-10, version 0* So it just streams WFMU from over the web and indicates what song is playing... and it does it well. However I wish it had stereo sound. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Stellar Freeform *2026-07-20, version 5.5.10* Stellar Freeform ### 5/5 — Incredible! *2026-07-09, version 5.5.10* I’d rate WFMU and their app among the best things in the world! Not to be taken lightly, I do a deep dive daily and that practice is as free form as the station itself. The app facilitates this and the sonic rewards are endless. ### 5/5 — Good luck *2026-06-18, version 5.5.10* Good luck with your streaming tonight guys ### 5/5 — I like music, especially new to me music *2026-05-14, version 5.5.10* As a consequence my brain will just 404 and this show is the answer ### 5/5 — WFMU is the best! *2026-03-22, version 5.5.10* WFMU is exactly the way radio should be. ### 5/5 — Rockland *2026-03-21, version 5.5.10* Heard about it here! ### 5/5 — Excellent weird station *2026-03-10, version 5.5.10* This app is a great way to access this world class radio station… The programming redeemes that it doesn’t list the archived broadcast dates as extensively as I would like ### 5/5 — Garli *2026-01-16, version 5.5.10* Maybe Spencer’s older sister could help me with my tech:) ### 5/5 — Access to the world’s finest radio station *2025-12-11, version 5.5.10* This app is well designed and actively maintained; but the important thing is really not the app itself, but the trove of excellent radio the app offers ready access to — the live programming of famed radio station WFMU and its additional alternate streams, as well as archives of recent shows. For access to DECADES of WFMU archives, see the “WFMU Archive Bunker” app. ### 5/5 — Cool music *2025-12-06, version 5.5.10* They play a lot of stuff I’ve never heard --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
