I enjoy NPR
This is a handy way to listen to the NPR live stream when you can’t listen to a radio.
The app remains buggy
The stream will stop randomly, usually at a crucial moment. There are times when this interruption is momentary but sometimes the stream is unavailable for extended periods of time. Because of this I’ve rethought my decision to make a donation.
Radio station plays well
I can't pick up a good station connection on my car radio so this app works great.
Don’t Bother with this one.
The stream get interrupted quite often. There have been times when I’ve been listening on the app and the stream dropped and as I was already going to my car I turned to WRVO and there was nothing but dead air. I was considering making a donation to the station, but I changed my mind because of the inconsistency of the service. You’ll be better off with WBFO or WAER. Then you won’t have to listen to Mark Lavonier’s monotone drone of a voice either.
Spotty availability
There have been too many days lately when I find the app is not streaming. It’s not an issue with my device because I’ve tested the app on other devices, reloaded the app, and restarted the devices to no avail. Thinking of discontinuing my support of WRVO since this app is the only way I can listen. If it’s not available, what’s the point?
The App is Buggy.
The WRVO App often just stops work, many time at the most crucial point in the broadcast. The stream disappears when this happens. Even after closing the app and rebooting. Nothing! Lately, the stream is interrupted by a prompt to make a donation. None of this happens with the WAER app.
More stable with update
Have not had buffering and crashing as with last version
