it's nice to be able to listen to 95 The sports hub on your phone and stream it to other devices if desired, but the navigation within the app. trying to find schedules or reading their articles is absolutely horrendous. there is always an error and whenever you send feedback they tell you and it auto response to reach out to Microsoft.

I enjoy many of the shows and have been a long-time listener. However, this app is awful. Essentially, if you do anything, like turn off your car (bluetooth) app crashes. If you change connection Wi-Fi to 4g crash. Pause to save time...crash. Furthermore , you guys still need to boost your radio signal across New England. Your competition is easily clear as a bell all across many channels from VT NY border all the way on the cape. Plus...T&H am show is awful. Two guys from Detroit? Not good.

Shows are great app sucks. All my other apps seem to be able to connect to Wi-Fi no problem but this one always struggles. Every time I have to pause the app for a call or change screens to check text or email it freezes and I have to either completely close the app or sometimes even go in and do a hard app stop to relisten again.

App worked perfectly fine prior to being updated. As usual, the update team has again made this app unlistenable. It just stops playing after five minutes and then you have yo close the App and re open it to get it to work again. This is VERY dangerous considering people listen to this app while driving ! Fix this or there will be deaths on your hands. Edited. It was fixed, then updated, now broken again. It's getting worse 4/4/24. Edited. If possible, this has become the worst app ever. 9/24

App will close randomly when getting out of the app after pressing play. I hate that I have to watch an ad to listen to the app. At least make it an audio ad so I don't have to leave my screen on. And please change the ads a little more often. Really getting frustrated and very close to deleting the app. One of the worst experiences I've had with an app. Something tells me nothing will change because there are a ton of the same reviews. Horrible horrible app

Constant streaming disruptions & broadcasts from a day or two ago... Just found out that the Celtics/ Cavs series is tied 1-1 when they played game three two days ago. When I click the Listen Live button, I actually want to hear a live broadcast... crazy huh? Over the years, I've run this app on multiple phones and laptops, over wifi and cell with the same results... Lazy, lazy.

Horrible app. Stops frequently on my Android and I have to kill app, start it again, listen to the same add for the millionth time. Not only do I have to listen to the forced ad, but I can't close my screen and listen to it. I have to wait for the video to complete (on a radio app) before I can continue. Also for some stupid reason I get adds for the NYC area instead of Boston. Sloppy. Annoying, Discgraceful

Is there some way to download a prior version as a workaround? You guys might honestly be better off shutting it down or doing that because it has become unusable after the latest update. There also has to be some way to track what devices have already seen the ad and not force that down our throats 10 times a day. Even when it works its obnoxious how often it makes you do that. Got to be some way to restrict it to only once a day or every 6 hours or something.

Months after the release of the update the app still can't handle the on demand audio being paused and then restarted. It will make you start the audio from the beginning nearly every time you pause for longer than ~ 1 minute or you'll just have an endless spinning wheel. It's such a basic function that this app used to have figured out and some one had to fudge with it. All my other listening apps do this seamlessly. Spend more time worrying about functionally and less time worrying about ads.

A large issue I have with the app is how it forces you to WATCH (NOT LISTEN) an ad before the radio stream plays. I don't have an issue with there being an ad to start, but you shouldn't be forced to keep your screen on to let the ad play before you get to the actual radio stream. I know in the past the beginning ad could be played with the screen off so please bring that back. Secondly the app really struggles if you pause the stream for any reason. No jump to live feature that works.
