WOSU Public Media App Reviews

by Greiner3

When WOSUPublicMediaApp works I'm happy as NPR is my lifeline. But WOSUPublicMediaApp drops me a lot. By this means is I'll be listening and then silence. I check WOSUPublicMediaApp and it is loading over and over. This happens when I'm at home with wifi on. Out and about. There's no reason I can find. Sorry but I curse WOSU there you have it

I want a WOSU app to substitute or replace my radio, not my other apps. I want to be able to play all of WOSU News’ morning / afternoon stories, as heard on air, in a few clicks. I want to be notified when they are all available to hear. As WOSUPublicMediaApp is now, you can play some stories singly, but it’s not immediately clear if/when when these stories aired. I don’t want to play them one by one. I want to start playing the morning or afternoon news, then set my phone down and go about my life while listening. (Like a radio but on demand) Thank you!

I love having WOSUPublicMediaApp since the radio signal is so hard to get. I hook my iPad to the stereo for good sound. But everyday I struggle to find d the ‘live stream’ part to turn it on. Easy on my iPhone, but the iPad; not so much. Maybe I need more morning coffee first.

WOSUPublicMediaApp has always worked great for me, but definitely could be a bit more intuitive.

WOSU is a terrific station and being able to take it anywhere, with this dependable app, is great reassurance that I won't miss news or a great program.

Love radio, podcasts, live TV, programming information - what’s not to love! If you live in central Ohio (or are from), this is a must have.

Thank you for these amazing stations and media content! WOSUPublicMediaApp is very easy to use.

Love the convenience of WOSUPublicMediaApp. Use it to listen to my favorite shows and look up NPR stories. Also can access coupons associated with my WOSU sustaining membership.

Listen in the early morning when hubby is still asleep.
Listen while my hubby watches TV.
Listen while I take my morning walk.
LOVE WOSUPublicMediaApp!

Highly recommended for classical music lovers. I will probably enjoy other aspects, too, but haven't done much exploring yet

NPR is daily staple for me and my family. WOSUPublicMediaApp ensures we never miss it...even when on the move.

I find WOSU's radio signal intermittent at best. Love getting the clear signal via WOSUPublicMediaApp . My problem is with my carrier T-Mobile which has lots of drop spots when I get outside Columbus and interstates.

WOSUPublicMediaApp works great. It allows me to listen to WOSU programming from anywhere. It’s especially useful during road trips. It also gives me access to some PBS content I can show my kid when we need a quick distraction.

Luv how I can be arriving at my destination & thinking, “Oh my, this WOSU program is just getting interesting,” &, rather just sitting there in the car, I can turn on WOSUPublicMediaApp & keep going with my day!

I grew up with WKSU in northern Ohio and came to appreciate the window to the culture of that area the station offered. With WOSU I am able to have both the news when I want to hear it, and classical music when I don’t wish to focus on the madness of our world. Also, I am kept abreast of the cultural happenings of the Columbus area. Thank you for all you do!

I listen to 101.1 pretty much constantly when I’m in my car and I often want to hear the rest of a piece or finish an hour show, WOSUPublicMediaApp allows me to do that. I also think that the classical music and talk radio as background is better on WOSUPublicMediaApp than classical Apple Music radio stations, for example, because these are curated by people—and it’s live which is way better.

I’ve been a fan of WOSU Classical for nearly four decades, and now with WOSUPublicMediaApp I can listen anywhere!
WOSUPublicMediaApp lets me see what is being played and offers other helpful information as well. I would urge everyone to install it!

Considering how many millions more users the NPR app supports the WOSU app is much more reliable across iOS updates. For example, it the WOSU app plays all of, say, the previous day’s archive of All Things Considered whereas the NPR app has failed to do so after each of the last couple of iOS upgrades.

Of course, WOSUPublicMediaApp also serves up WOSU TV (PBS) programming. Bonus! :-)

It’s a free app so go ahead, download it and see for yourself.

Enjoy!

Seem to be able to find live streams easily and doesn’t crash. Not so easy to find news stories to read, though, but maybe that’s not what it’s really for.

Great to use WOSUPublicMediaApp when you're not in the house or in the car and without a radio. You can stream NPR here while out and about from your phone. It's great.

I love that I can listen to my favorite shows from anywhere with just my phone.
