Becomes basically non-functional after about 10 minutes. you can uninstall and reinstall and gives you another 10 minutes. ### 2/5 — Ads *2022-08-10, version 9.0.0* I don’t understand why this app is so trash. It’ll randomly cut off and just not play, and for whatever reason it’ll go on spans where ads will literally play for over 10 minutes straight. ### 3/5 — Please update *2019-10-21, version 6.6.0* Was working pretty good until iOS 13.1.3. Now it will only stream while the app is open. Please update!!! ### 1/5 — Never opens *2019-03-07, version 6.6.0* Very poor, just go to the franchise if you want a app to listen to live Oklahoma sports radio that actually works!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2019-03-05, version 6.6.0* The old app worked great without any hiccups. Since the update, the app crashes every single time I use it. It skips for 20-30 seconds at a time every few minutes. I stopped using it and I listen on the I Heart Radio app. ### 1/5 — Dangerous to attempt to use *2019-02-28, version 6.6.0* I moved to AZ three years ago... I try to use the app to listen to Al and Jim on my way home and between having to cancel out of adds, repeatedly, the radio show not starting and having to close the app, reopen it, and then close those ads again, maybe it starts... maybe I do that process again. Next thing you know I’m home... wasted time and distracted while driving. I try at a stop light once now and if it doesn’t work, I’m forced to listen to local “sports” talk radio. Have you seen the Cardinals and Suns recently? SMH ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2019-02-18, version 6.6.0* App shuts down at least 3 times an hour. Every time it shuts down you have to listen to the same commercial. Being the best sports radio program around you would think they could fix their app ### 1/5 — app no longer works *2019-01-23, version 6.6.0* app is horrible now just get error saying no internet connection when i try to start it. last update was horrible, please fix ### 2/5 — What Happened *2018-12-22, version 6.6.0* The app drops often. Seems I can listen to ESPN but when Thunder pregame comes on it drops. Can’t listen to Morning Animals. You say to check connection. I can listen to Franchise on intune radio, but I don’t . You always manage to connect for commercial, then you say to check the connection. Old app was great! ### 1/5 — The app never connects. *2018-12-19, version 6.6.0* The app gives a network alert then shuts down. What a waste of potential, this is how you grow your audience in 2018. They are losing out advertising & viewers. I’m gonna go listen to another sports show that has learned to evolved in the modern era. ### 1/5 — Update Malfunction *2018-12-05, version 6.6.0* Big fan of radio station; when I updated last week it started crashing and I cannot listen. Very frustrating. ### 1/5 — My first review ever.... *2018-11-28, version 6.6.0* This app stopped working for me 2 weeks ago(just so happens that is the last time they did an update) It is always saying it requires an internet connection. Please fix this app, it was already mediocre before the update with all the stupid adds that are force fed to us. ### 1/5 — Now you have to register to listen *2018-11-24, version 6.6.0* This app is pure garbage. Now they want you to register to listen. It’s not even worth using my burner email ### 1/5 — Commercial Heavy *2018-11-13, version 6.6.0* Too many commercials when you first get on the app. I counted 16 commercials in a row. Come on guys. If you have to stop the app many times during the day like I do and restart it, basically all you hear is commercials. App works well though when you can listen to sports radio. Latest version as of Nov 13 2018 keeps popping up saying check your network connection. Doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Worst app on Earth *2018-11-12, version 5.1.36* Simply unplayable. Total waste of of time. The only thing that plays is a plumbing commercial. So appropriate because the WWLS app belongs in a toilet. ### 1/5 — Worst app in America? *2018-11-11, version 5.1.36* Love the sorts animal, but this app is 100% trash. It doesn’t work. Old school traber. Old school app. ### 1/5 — Inconsistent *2018-11-11, version 5.1.36* I love the WWLS. I always try and try to use this app because I no longer live in oklahoma. However, it sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. Iv been using it for about 4 years and this is my first review, mainly because I’m sick of this crappy app. Sad part is that their local rival app the Franchise never seems to happen any issues. I feel like the animal doesn’t even care to improve it. ### 2/5 — Not working *2018-09-25, version 5.1.36* App isn’t working for me when away from an internet connection. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fix the ad issue *2026-06-22, version 26.0.0* I’m tired of hearing the Chappell supplies you every time I try to do something else on my phone when listening to the live stream! ### 1/5 — No longer working *2025-12-22, version 24.0.0* Quit working ### 1/5 — Too Many Ads!! *2025-10-21, version 22.1.0* Love the ability to listen while not in the car, but the ads are ridiculous. I have to sit through 5 minutes of ads just for the regular broadcast to come on and go to a break a minute in. ### 1/5 — Joke *2024-05-15, version 17.0.0* Opened the app to listen to the show. After the 7th consecutive ad before hearing any content, I just closed the app and deleted it. ### 1/5 — Nothing but ads *2021-12-30, version 8.0.0* Advertisements on repeat. The worst. ### 1/5 — Worst ever! Delete from App Store! *2020-06-12, version 6.12.1* Unusable. Ads that you can’t click out of. Bye! ### 1/5 — Crap App *2019-12-09, version 6.6.0* I really enjoy the animal but this App is trash. It is the only app that gets worse as it gets upgraded. I’ve quit using it because it disconnects every 30 seconds. Sometimes it doesn’t even open after the ad. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2019-11-26, version 6.6.0* Why are there 2, sometimes 3, commercials I have to listen to before even hearing the broadcast? Also, why do I have to “login” to listen to a free app?!?! No other free app makes you do that! Lastly, this app crashes about every other time I use it. I doubt I’ll be using this app. ### 1/5 — App is garbage *2019-10-08, version 6.6.0* Your app is terrible. Way too many ads, buffering usually every 10-20 mins and it often loses signal. You need to improve the app, I moved to a different state and this sorry thing is all I have to listen to the sports animal. ### 1/5 — App never loads on my iPhone XR *2019-09-01, version 6.6.0* Always get “network error. Check your network connection” Every other radio app works. Please fix ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best *2026-09-05, version 26.0.0* Best in the state not even close ### 5/5 — Great redesigned app! *2022-07-28, version 9.0.0* This new redesign of this app is a big improvement. The app is smooth and easy to navigate. The added features and improvements really make this app better to use. I also appreciate that all the podcasts of the shows are easy to find and available. I would recommend using this app if you love the Sports Animal! ### 5/5 — Works on the 4s *2011-12-12, version 2.1.1* Deleted the app then reinstalled and it works fine now. ### 5/5 — iS05 Update *2011-12-01, version 2.1.1* had to delete app from iphone then reloaded and it works fine now - multitasking ability would make app perfect ### 5/5 — Awesome *2011-08-25, version 2.1.1* The sound quality is great. And I can listen wherever I am wether I'm local or outside the country! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2010-10-08, version 0* This is pretty much all you could ask for in an app designed to play WWLS the Sports Animal. Clear broadcast and cool features make it a must have for sports fans ### 5/5 — Confused Duck *2010-09-20, version 0* Tryn to figure out what this guy is talkn about. Good app. No idea what H8 was expecting.
