Awesome
I listen to jazz and classical (and rock) and I like this app. It’s cool how it works in in Western Massachusetts.
Alarm good be better
The only reason I have this app is to play a radio alarm since nest has ended radio alarms. However, it first plays an annoying loud chime before playing the music. I really wish there was an option to just play the music!
Cannot save new time for alarm
The only reason I have this app is to play a radio alarm since nest has ended radio alarms. However, you can’t save a new time for the apps radio alarm.
BEST Classical and Jazz station in the U.S.
I love this station! I adore listening to classical music during my work commute and during the day. I enjoy the jazz at night as well. The selections are always interesting and there is enough variety that I don’t feel like I am listening to a Sirius station of Best Classical hits. I want to hear all of the works of the great composers, not just the popular ones. Thank you WRTI!
Good sound!
I used to listen on a different app but it started glitching and throwing me out. Your app is so much better. I can listen for hours!
Love being able to listen to jazz around the country
App is mostly okay - main benefit is access to music I love from a source I trust. Sometimes a little glitchy to find past programs or playlists but maybe that’s just user error? Overall grateful to have this resource.
