I mostly listen to YPR, but like the ability to listen to talk/jazz/classical stations — these choices listed at the top of the page. It works. ### 5/5 — My perfect companion *2019-06-07* This app gives me access to my favorite public radio content anytime I wish. I’m grateful for Yellowstone Public Radio! ### 5/5 — Love the curated programs *2019-04-05, version 3.9.36* Everything from the classical to the humankind talks. Just a very engaging radio station ### 5/5 — Thanks YPR 👍 *2019-03-15, version 3.9.36* No radio in the bathroom and with the YPR App problem solved. ### 5/5 — An awesome app! *2018-12-17, version 3.9.25* A great place to get today’s news! Thx YPR! ### 5/5 — Now I never miss a program *2018-10-09* So easy to use and handy for quick news updates ### 5/5 — Wonderful, my favorite app! *2018-10-04* This is such a great app- jazz, classical, news all at your fingertips. Way to go YPR that’s why I donate every year!! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Best News App *2018-08-21, version 3.9.9* I’ve been listening to NPR ever since I’ve been a kid. This is the best news network in today’s world. ### 5/5 — Grateful for the app *2018-08-09, version 3.9.9* Public radio is the ONLY radio I listen to and I’m happy to support it and appreciate the app very much. ### 5/5 — Works Great *2018-05-04, version 3.8.32* The perfect way to stay connected in our rural state. Thanks YPR! ### 5/5 — Yay! *2018-04-11* I have experimented with various ways of streaming YPR on my phone including TuneIn and the NPR app, but this dedicated app is easier to navigate and provides a superior streaming experience. I haven’t experienced any buffering issues or loops (which drive me away from TuneIn all the time!) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Great radio, unreliable app *2022-05-25* I’m a huge YPR fan and supporter, but I can’t get this app to reliably work. It will quit after a number of seconds and takes a long time to reload. Am I the only one experiencing this? Really frustrating as I value the continent they provide. Hoping the app experience improves! ### 2/5 — Not worth it *2022-04-11, version 4.5.23* Too busy & not user friendly. Things I need most, like the schedule, are nowhere to be found. ### 3/5 — Terrible update *2021-09-15* The latest update has made the app so slow to load, it is easier to just go somewhere else. ### 3/5 — Glad it’s here, but needs work *2020-06-26* I’m glad for the app, but it does a poor job of placing the newest news stories first, and it does not easily allow sharing via the Facebook app, some of us prefer the app rather than logging in via our browsers, and improved sharing features would be nice —and show more people about how good YPR news is! ### 3/5 — Good, but . . . *2017-10-12* . . . holy cow, is it slow to get going. I don't know the exact technical terminology, so in plain English, wow is there a long pause between pushing the play button and the stream actually playing. Other than that quibble, it works great. Love being able to pause the stream. ### 4/5 — Does What it Should *2023-08-22* The YPR app works fine and looks really cool, but takes an annoyingly long time to “boot up”— a characteristic unique among the six public radio apps I use. This reticence is the reason I shorted it a star in my rating. ### 4/5 — Very Good *2022-05-28* I’ve used the app for years and it works well. The only weakness I have found is when selecting the live stream it seems to need to connect twice. Once connected, works great. Use it often. ### 4/5 — YPR *2021-01-20* Several months ago I moved back to Wyoming after about 10 years in Livingston Montana. I had my radio always tuned to you & especially loved Performance Today along with the piano puzzler. Since my parents also listened to it in Denver then Portland, I just assumed all public radio stations carried it. (NPR hadn’t been available where we lived in Wyoming.) So, when I returned & discovered that Wyoming public radio is accessible all over, I tuned it in. Imagine my surprise when I found PT wasn’t on their schedule! So, when I downloaded your app, I was very pleased to have classical programs available again. Now I listen to YPR in the mornings & overnight every day. Thank-you for making it possible for me to get so much classic music! Plus, I can catch important news so I can know when to check in with my sister in Bozeman! ### 4/5 — I like my fun raw, conflicts rare, weather medium & news well done! *2020-03-04, version 4.4.9* So great to be locally connected! Wherever I may be! ### 4/5 — Yay! Finally!! *2018-01-24, version 3.8.32* Thanks YPR—I use the NPR one app but missed the local news! Wonderful to have this app now. Just a little slow to get going. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — YPR Radio *2025-05-21* I listen to ypr every day. I like ALL programs. It keeps me informed on daily events personal stories, government, local regional National and international events in the world. It is not only informative but very interesting and entertaining at times. I try to donate during the biannual pledge drives. It has been the source of much of the knowledge I have gained about the world we live in. My favorite programs are science Friday The hidden brain Saturday show on Sunday fresh air and more. Thank you for ypr and npr. When I listen to the news reports I can trust what is reported is true not spin or downright fake. ### 5/5 — One of the better ones! *2022-04-17* I’ve lived a lot of places and this station is one of the better ones. Right up there with CPR. ### 5/5 — Great app from a great news source *2022-01-05* Yellowstone Public Radio is a terrific new team and this all brings it with you wherever you go. ### 5/5 — Love it *2021-12-01* The classical music selections are always great. They include old favorites as well as pieces and composers new to me. Not much really new or avant-garde, which is just fine with me! Nice to be able to stream the radio shows too. My only complaint is I can’t figure out how to look up the names of music being played, or how to catch up on a news piece I couldn’t hear the end of. ### 5/5 — Great station *2020-11-04, version 4.4.61* Bison friendly!! What else to say ### 5/5 — MONTANA Sourced News Excellently Provided *2020-10-12* This is an excellent public radio station, particularly if you are a Montana or northern Wyoming resident. The local new team connects with other news teams across the state to provide an all inclusive program and podcasts, integrating with NPR. I have my Alexa device wake me up with a briefing from NPR and Yellowstone Public Radio. I enjoy the varied programs produced by NPR and YPR on the weekends, as well as the music during the week. I particularly enjoy the jazz programs in the afternoon, but the classical programs in the mornings are a great way to have Alexa wake me up. All of this takes support from Montana residents. If you live solely on SSI as I do, consider listening to YPR and give a small gift each month. If you are a resident outside of Montana and would like to listen to a well-administered public radio station in a ‘purple’ state: please tune in: you won’t be disappointed. ### 5/5 — Love YPR *2020-09-03, version 4.4.61* I absolutely love this app and I am able to get all of my local news easily! ### 5/5 — Nice *2020-06-21, version 4.4.9* Nice to have a local, full time on demand classical station. ### 5/5 — Outstanding App *2020-06-13, version 4.4.9* Now I can stream all YPR channels ### 5/5 — Love it. *2020-05-07* And need it! My only (mild) objection is music coming along in the morning, which is when I absorb my news. Montana coverage is excellent. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
