NPR Pros

✓ Very responsive to feedback.I enjoy this app for being able to select the stories that interest me. I use it most on CarPlay during my commute to and from work. I felt that the CarPlay experience could use some improvement, so I gave some ideas of what I would find helpful, and some suggestions of how to implement those ideas. To my absolute delight, the latest update included a fantastic increase in CarPlay features and functionality. I understand it is egocentric of me to think that my suggestions are what lead to the improvements of the CarPlay experience. But given the otherwise highly coincidental timing, I prefer to think of this instance as an example that the developers genuinely take the feedback section of this app seriously. Even if there was another news radio app with fewer flaws and more features, I would still rate this one higher because of the development team’s demonstrated attention to honest feedback..M4D|M4XVersion: 5.4.2

NPR Cons

✗ Miss the old appI don’t write reviews often, but the disparity between the recently revised NPR app and the old version is too great to ignore. The old app, while less ‘modern’ looking, felt less rigid, more customizable, and less cumbersome to use. The utility I miss the most was the ability to create playlists from stories from various NPR programs into one stream, and have that stream auto-play from one story to another. Now, if one plays an individual story in Morning Edition, for instance, it does not auto-play the next story; one has to go back into the app and manually play the next story or the entire program must be played in order for a “playlist” to be created. It’s cumbersome and sometimes dangerous, particularly while listening on the road. I can fathom that this system forces the listener to listen to 1) more ads (which seem to be auto-generated in between stories and could not be before with self-created playlists), and 2) more stories (forcing the listener to listen the entire program instead allowing the ability to choose). Please bring back the functionality of the old app. I have spent the better half of this morning searching for whether it is possible to reinstall old versions of apps in iTunes..Soarin3Version: 4.0.2

✗ NPR fixed sth that’s not brokenThe new app is difficult to navigate, it doesn’t offer the playlist option anymore which was such a great feature. It crashes regularly. I wish I never had updated the app. I love NPR‘s reporting, though..JayLZeeVersion: 4.0.3
