As long as my internet holds on, I can listen to this superb station via the app. Thank you! ### 2/5 — Terrible app *2025-01-30, version 4.6.9* Constant buffering issues, event after I updated my iOS system. Now it simply will not play. It’s a pity. ### 5/5 — WWNO *2023-10-16, version 4.6.9* App is so convenient in connecting me to my favorite radio station, WWNO. My gateway to NPR! ### 3/5 — The last update’s features not as described *2023-06-14, version 4.6.9* I love my hometown stations, wwno + wwoz - so much so that they’re the only radio stations I ever listen to, even though I haven’t lived in state for 20 years. I only have words of support for programming, personalities, performers, and all the other people involved in providing these tethers to my soul’s home. Thank you. I do just want to point out - not complain - the features such as “rewind” as you’re listening or “DVR like features” is quite misleading as far as my experience on my device (an iPhone 13 mini, if that matters.) Rewinding is very very limited re: how far you can rewind and has no time stamp to reveal where / how far you are rewinding. The functions are like DVR - only in the weaker details of those machines: I can only rewind as far as where in the program I tune in. I can’t rewind to beginning or to the program just prior, for example. It lacks the key features of DVR - i.e. there is no option to record or program “recording” of programming. Maybe i am just more tech-challenged than i thought, but if that is true, there are many many ppl out there who are having a harder time than i am trying to make use of the app as it is described by the latest release notes. I won’t give up my station, but i have gone back to other streaming sources for listening *for now*. ♥ ### 3/5 — Love NPR but inconsistent *2022-10-10, version 4.5.23* I love being able to listen to NPR but the signal drops frequently. ### 3/5 — Very Inconsistent Lately *2022-03-22, version 4.5.23* I work from home and listen to the WWNO app all day, during my work day. I have done this for many years. On weekends, while driving, I also stream shows like Weekend Edition, Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me, RadioLab and This American Life. I stream in my car because the radio station signal is not always clear in rural St. Tammany and Washington parishes. Lately, last 3 months or so, the app drops out of the blue or it buffers, for ever. In frustration, I have turning to the WRKF app to stream Public Radio. Please address this app issue. Thank you. ### 3/5 — Technical trouble *2022-02-28, version 4.5.23* The programs, local and national, are great. But the worst app I’ve ever used-technically. Freezes up frequently but only in certain locations. Have had to delete and reinstall it often. ### 3/5 — Great channel, not so great app. *2021-11-03, version 4.5.23* I would like to see a rewind and/or pause button. I listen all day at work and often have to stop listening (I am at work after all) and then I miss talking points or music I would have liked to hear. The connection speed is slow, it drops the channel often and then I have to listen to the public radio self promotion before I can get back to the show. ### 5/5 — Awesome jazz from the Mecca NOLA!! *2021-10-02, version 4.5.23* Merci beaucou ## Frequently asked questions about WWNO Public Radio App ### What can I do with the WWNO Public Radio App?
