### 5/5 — I like it.

*2021-12-21, version 4.5.32*

I haven’t had any trouble with this app and I have had it for years. Highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Keep on ! Best community radio in the nation.

*2021-09-17*

Good job WORT 

They rely on support from the community. Donate/volunteer keep independent radio alive

### 5/5 — Community power

*2021-07-15*

The best community supported radio station, the best app, the best people. Love all the shows and all the people involved.

### 5/5 — WORT rules!

*2021-04-10*

Finally an easy way to listen to my favorite radio station when I’m out of range of their signal. Their app is as fantastic as their programming, well done!

### 5/5 — A Well-designed App!

*2021-04-03*

I have been a WORT listener and contributor since before the turn of the century😂. This app provides  functionality similar to what's available on the website but now it's accessible in a more-portable format. Many thanks for creating this app!

### 5/5 — Cross Plains Terry

*2021-03-26*

Easy access to WORT programming via the airwaves is something I always considered an added bonus to Dane County’s quality of life. Now I can take WORT with me wherever I go without fear of missing Rockin’ John, Entertainment, Back to the Country, Mel & Floyd, people who open doors and minds - and just make life more fun. Thrilled to have the app.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-03-25*

Many reasons to love the app, but here’s one: have you ever stayed in the car to listen to the music or the news because you didn’t want to miss the rest of the song, set or story? With the app, you can pause the stream, pick up your package or go inside, then pick up where you left off.

### 5/5 — Best Radio

*2021-03-22*

No annoying commercials. Ever. Awesome mix of music and other exciting content that every community should have access too. 
Some of the greatness I love most at W.O.R.T FM Madison, WI:

Who cooks for you
Rolling with Scissors 
2Dub
La Junta
Pan Africa
Tropical Riddims
Mel and Floyd
Higher Ground

### 5/5 — The reason I finally broke down and got my first smartphone

*2021-03-20*

This is the reason I bought a smartphone. My first and most used app. Mel and Floyd are by far down my favorite radio show, I have jazz to listen to in my home office, news to start the day, and local news to stay informed on what’s going on in Madison. Everyone should have more WORT in their life, especially if you live in Dane county.

### 5/5 — Getting my fix of WORT

*2021-03-12*

Great way of conveniently taking WORT anywhere you go.  Nice interface that allows easy navigation of audio content. Works seamlessly by fading into the background when other apps need my attention.

### 5/5 — One stop shop for all things WORT-Fm

*2021-03-02*

Great easy to use interface to listening, the archives and lots more.

### 4/5 — Local Radio App

*2023-10-11, version 4.6.11*

It’s aiight.

### 4/5 — Would like a better pause button

*2021-04-11*

Love the app, but I’d like the pause button to last longer. If I pause to take a phone call, by the time I press play again, the archive audio program I’m listening to starts over.

### 4/5 — Essential App

*2021-04-11*

This has been my most used app since I downloaded it.  I love it. My only issue is that at times the buttons to forward or pause don’t work.

### 5/5 — Best community radio station!

*2026-07-09, version 12.0.6*

Thrilled we have a companion app. The DJs are great at posting their playlists, and it links through the app itself. 

Plus, you can stream it live anytime! WORT is a local treasure, keeps Madison authentic through news and music and informing us about community events.

### 5/5 — New listener, can’t get enough!

*2025-11-23*

Love the programming and the app works perfectly. WORT, I wish I had moved to Madison (and found you) much, much sooner.

### 5/5 — Great app! Love WORT.

*2025-08-22*

I always use the app to check which programs are on, and which song is currently playing. The user interface is very easy to navigate! Great app for a great station.

### 5/5 — Back in the grove

*2025-05-20*

Can't believe I waited this long to get back in the groove where I learned about reality. And learn learned about what music I really liked. WORT taught me more than the degree I got from Madison in terms of Practical usable lessons.

### 5/5 — I love it!

*2024-10-04*

This is the only app on my phone that I keep using. The app has worked like a charm and now my night time music is perfect!

### 5/5 — A charm

*2024-03-25*

App works like a charm. I get to listen to all my great wort fav’s. Thanks everyone at wort! 💙

### 5/5 — Get your WORT.

*2023-08-01, version 4.6.11*

Great to listen to all your favorite shows when you’re out of range of your radio:  from the car on a road trip, in the office, or the kitchen.  Dig the features such as current track details.  You’ll love this free app from your favorite back porch radio station.

### 5/5 — App enhances my farm life exponentially!

*2023-04-19*

I appreciate the dedicated resources to share WORT far and wide. I listen live from work in Grant Co, my Wyoming Valley farmhouse, and beyond. I can enjoy all my faves from Back to the Country to live news at 6, to Mel & Floyd (Hi from a minion). Long live WORT!

### 5/5 — WORT Rocks

*2022-08-27*

There is no bad way to access WORT. The app is great.

### 5/5 — Not a big app guy but this rocks for reals

*2022-01-15*

Wort fully digital. Love this.
