Thanks!! ### 5/5 — Great blues *2017-04-29, version 3.8.10* Gildedlily ### 5/5 — Cool, cool WVPE *2017-04-18, version 3.8.10* Public Broadcasting is always ahead of the curve. First closed captioning, first satellite feed, best podcasts anywhere! ### 5/5 — Great App *2017-04-08, version 3.8.10* This app is fantastic. I love being able to listen to the weekly shows on my time without hunting for podcasts. You also can listen to the live shows. ### 5/5 — Great way to experience local news and music *2016-12-13, version 3.7.20* Love how you can easily listen to WVPE stations either live or on demand-- also other WVPE stations I can't get without an HD radio. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Love content, but app doesn’t look or feel like iOS app *2023-01-10, version 4.5.63* The content is great, but this app needs a design overhaul. It looks and feels like a janky Android app. I’d really like them to make an iOS first app, that looks and feels like an iPhone app, with the corresponding speed and responsiveness. Some companies have a policy of using one compromised version to serve iOS/iPadOS and Android, but it’s almost always a design mess. Apple makes so many amazing API’s available for devs. I really hope they develop a version that serves the most popular, most respected platform in America (iPhone) first. I know it’s public radio, but someday, the app may be the main way people interact with the station and it is worth investing in. Once they do, it will be much easier to update and maintain. ### 2/5 — Alarm function doesn’t work *2018-04-23, version 3.8.36* I have an iPhoneX and your alarm will only send pop-up notifications to the lock screen and not play sound even when I have it plugged in, notifications on, sound up. Of course, since I turn it on before going to sleep, the phone is in night mode and I have the little orange switch turned so I don’t get notifications all night long for ever email. Maybe there is some other combination in order to make the alarm sound at 6 AM with local news from NPR. But there aren’t any further instructions on the app. ### 3/5 — Keep working on it! *2018-11-11, version 3.9.16* Love that you have an app and all of the shows you offer, WVPE, but compared to other NOR apps I have on my phone, there seem to be a lot of glitches. It often will go into repeat mode... I hear the same little clip over & over again. Also, it often just stops all together, sonI don't hear anything at all. You usually lose me to Michigan Radio at that point! Keep working on the app bc I'd love to keep listening. We're supporters of WVPE in this household, but get exasperated when the app is consistently unreliable. Thanks for all you do. ### 4/5 — Can't live without it! *2021-01-11, version 4.4.69* Love that I can have my favorite NPR station wherever I am! ### 5/5 — Great app for listening to my radio station *2025-02-09, version 4.6.16* I use this to listen to WVPE at home and it works well. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-09-10, version 4.6.16* All the truth everyone should now who claims to be educated. ### 5/5 — Solid app *2022-04-24, version 4.5.43* It’s nice to keep up with the old npr station from back home. ### 5/5 — Great App *2020-02-16, version 4.4.17* Love that can get the blues everything WVPE has to offer and what a great job !!! Recommended to all my friends... ### 5/5 — Old' Harv and the Blues *2019-06-29, version 3.9.36* World wide access to Harvey's great Blues music show on Saturday and Sunday, 1pm to 4! Tell everybody!! ### 5/5 — What I like to see *2019-02-16, version 3.9.36* Being able to chromecast it. And would like to see the playlist of songs on the Blues review. Otherwise keep up the good work. ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2019-02-16, version 3.9.36* Great app!
