The updated application runs even hotter than previous version. The application then crashes and/or crashes the system.

There was a time when this radio station was the powerhouse in Washington DC. Home of the Redskins, the great morning team of Harden and Weaver, the controversial but always entertaining Ken Beatrice, and the incredible music brain of Felix Grant. But FM took over music and the morning zoos came with them. The final blow was when they lost the Redskins. WMAL had to do something. So (it is my assumption) they looked at what worked in AM radio around the country and saw the right-wing blow hards like Rush were gaining ratings. They jumped on the bandwagon. Now the station is like a poor-man's Fox & Friends: full of bias, misleading opinion presented as information, thinly veiled racism, and now... a crappy app with unimaginative design and poor controls. If you're a ditto-head who likes this kind of clap-trap talk: get WunderRadio - you can listen to WMAL and so many more Fox wannabes! Just don't take up the space on your iPhone screen with this junk.

App used to be really great. Now commercials every time you start it (even if accidentally closed for just a second). Ad closure button doesn’t always work, which requires cycling closed, and you guessed it, another ad when reopened. The worst change though is the podcast feature. My drives have a few dead zones, so I liked to download before any longer drives. A couple months ago the download button stopped working. It will flash when you push it, but won’t initiate a download cycle, and no programs appear in the downloads folder. I figured it was some version conflict bug that would get worked out. But here two months later I still can’t download. Sorry WMAL - I really liked your station, but since I am out of range for FM transmitter, you discontinued AM, and now your app is cr*p, I guess I will have to find different alternatives. Uninstalling.
