Description

Public Radio App is currently the best public radio app to date. For serious fans, it's a must-have. CNET 2009
What makes Public Radio App really powerful is its TiVo-like controls which allows you to pause, rewind and fast forward a live stream. geek.com 2009

Public Radio App: The ultimate mobile public radio experience with great features not found in any other app!

While others may be free, only the Public Radio App allows you to pause and rewind a live stream and view the program schedule for multiple streams at once. You can explore On Demand content and search across hundreds of stations, bookmark a story for later, and wake up to your favorite station with the alarm clock. All this, with no pop-up ads, for the price of a grande latte!

Have you ever experienced dropped streams with other free apps? With the Public Radio App, weve designed the streaming engine from the ground up to minimize dropped streams and recover automatically to avoid interruptions.

Drops constantly, resumes w/advertisement (1 star)
Can't use this as it is too frequently interrupted on my bike commute, even in areas with strong coverage. Always restarts with the same ad.
