GPB for Negative User Reviews
✓ Used to be more stableI use this app daily, and love it when it’s not acting up. Lately, it sometimes gets stuck in a buffering loop. Also, now that it starts with a sponsor message, that interrupts the programming if I drop from my WiFi at the far end of the house..Version: 4.4.32
✓ Needs work.Same platform as my primary station, so I assume a third party vendor created it. What kind of alarm is this? It's a horrifying noise..Version: 3.6.13
✓ UserThe NEW app is definitely a downgrade. They try to push everyone to audio and video. What happened to simply reading articles? No longer regularly use this app…..Disappointing to say the least.Version: 4.5.75
✓ PerformanceSometimes the show will not stay on and I need to reboot phone or reinstall.Version: 4.6.19
✓ Recent update has caused problemsI have been using this app for years to stream GPB. The recent update starts with a hook or bump about GPB. Fine. Then the bump will spontaneously play. Sometimes every 30 seconds to a minute. Restart, and it will jump in every 5 minutes or so. Restart, and it will interrupt every 2 minutes. It is making the app almost worthless because of the frustration..Version: 4.5.72
✓ Buggy app; GPB lacks good contentGPB cancelled its popular Political Rewind show under pressure from CancelCulture GOP operatives. The app is incredibly buggy and makes it hard to listen. 2 stars.Version: 4.6.11
✓ Seems to need frequent refreshI listen to radio a lot, using an fm radio, Alexa device and my iPhone. On iPhone I use the GPB and NPR apps. The GPB ap seems to need to refresh itself fairly often and randomly interrupts programs with repeats of its station identification.Version: 4.5.75
✓ Confusing & brokenThe one thing I want to use this for is listening to the local headlines each morning. That’s difficult to do even when the app is supposedly working as it should, taking me to the GPB website and having me press the Play button—not the big, “press me” Play button at the bottom of the screen on the app, but the website’s Play button that I find once I’ve scrolled down a bit. Fine, I’ll take another sip of coffee and force my morning brain to recall and fumble through that procedure. But this latest update (I believe?) has caused even that hidden-website Play button to be unresponsive! How to listen to the local headlines? Delete this app and just Google them each day—it’s easier..Version: 3.9.28
✓ Poor connectivityPoor transfer between Wi-Fi and 5G.Version: 4.5.75
✓ App works when it wants toI’ve used this app for years to listen to NPR. When it works it’s great but there are periods ranging from minutes to days where it won’t work at all. It’s terribly frustrating and I would like to see more consistency..Version: 4.4.69
✓ App needs work!I tried the "live feed" on this app and it hung up on a "car donation" screen and never recovered... deleted app.Version: 3.8.7
✓ GPB appThere are randomly occurring PSAs that interrupt programs. Also, more than once, there is radio silence that lasts for minutes to hours. Downloading the app anew does not remedy this sudden silence. Also, when transitioning from a home network to mobile roaming, the app has to be reopened. 12/6. My prior comment remains relevant. The “updates “ to this app have not remedied these issues. If anything, the issue of a frozen transmission when transitioning from home wi-go to mobile is worse. The only fix is to delete the app and reload it. I access four other public radio apps, none of which have these issues..Version: 4.6.28
✓ Last app was betterI don’t understand this app and I don’t like it. The “live” show in this app is different from the GPB NPR programs on my radio. I used to be able to browse the old app for different GPB NPR affiliated programs and pick the one I wanted but I can’t see a similar function here - so if I want to listen to my local station I have to open the old app which y’all have crippled. Pretty unhappy with the change..Version: 4.5.75
✓ Middle of the roadI’m not sure exactly what part of GPB I’m responding to here-so sorry. The app? The programming? For several years I’ve had trouble finding what is on and when but that is with the app or without it. I’m a contributor and get the monthly mag but things change. I think it’s the specificity with which I canNOT search GPB. NPR has also changed its app navigation as well as some features I’ve come to rely on. Now, I find the NPR app just plain hard to use compared with 2-3 years ago. The “live” NPR button is gone! So I’m driving along, listening to NPR in my car, drive into the garage and want to continue hearing the program. Until recently I would immediately pick up my iPhone NPR app hit “live” and continue listening. Now there is a disconnect as I sit in my garage trying to find the program I’ve been listening to in my car. Rarely to I find the program. Seems like the Savannah GPB/NPR station has just vanished? I appreciate you asking. Listening to NPR is a daily source of frustration I’ve not experienced until maybe six months ago..Version: 4.6.28
✓ Glad it exists but Horrible problem with app shutting downI tried to listen to an hour long show and it quit (shut down app entirely and required me to find my place each time) probably 8 times. VERY frustrating..Version: 4.4.11
