Great station and evolving app

This is a well-designed app, especially given that this is a nonprofit station. You have easy access to two station options in the app, and you can view the playlists to discover new songs and new artists, which I’ve found helpful. You can also donate from within the app (wink, you should). The app has improved over the years. I’m happy to support my local station.

Pretty good app, fantastic station

We moved away and truly miss the DJ’s and programming. Musically, if have any taste, then you already know. Rob, Alex, both Bob’s, Carrie and all the DJ’s rock. The app…it will stop periodically and randomly. Mostly when in our cars, but a quick restart and we’re good for another 20 minutes.

The new app is not as user friendly as the old

Between 10-20% of the time the app does not launch from my updated iPhone and the circle does not fully rotate. There were no instructions as to how to use it. I’m a sustaining member and want WTMD to remain a powerful and influential force in the Baltimore Community . If I am doing something wrong, please let me know if I should call someone at the station for technical support.

Keeps me connected to the Baltimore Sound

Great looking interface. I love that the iPad version will also run on my M2 MacBook Air. I lived in the DC Metro area for 30 years and now I live in RVA. We have great public radio in Richmond, but it's so great to spend time listening to WTMD. Keeps me connected to the great Baltimore sound!

Not great for streaming in car

I enjoy WTMD music and stream WTMD at home and in the car from Florida. The problem is I have to restart the app and press play every time I start the car, even if I just stopped for a minute. I don’t have this problem with other music streaming apps. I’ve sent feedback through the app but never get a response.

YES!!!

Love WTMD. Love this app. I can listen all around as I travel. Even listen in while I chat as relatives in Canada also listen. Can have a family affair and enjoy great music and great variety. 5 stars from me and mine👍

One of a kind music from a one of a kind station!

This is a gem of a station and this app makes streaming it that much more enjoyable! Happy 20th, WTMD, and here’s to many more!

App improves Streaming

Such a pleasant surprise! App displays track/artist info on my older (no Airplay) Toyota! So glad I bothered to d/l after several previously “meh” experiences with radio streaming apps. Thanks, WTMD, for a premium experience!

Good station. Went from being an underground (literally) 60w college station to a 'commercial free' station playing good music & providing music/art events in the Baltimore DC area.

Nice app

Works very well. I stream a number of radio stations and WTMD is probably the best app. Plus it’s a great station!

WTMD is always improving the app. It’s great I can listen wherever I go. The best mix of music and informative DJs. Listener supported radio is the best!

A great app for a great radio station

Good App

I listen to this station all day at work, over the air, so I think the station itself is great. I was going to rate the app lower, because the HD-2 stream hasn't worked in the week since I loaded the app. However, I just tried the HD-2 stream on a Logitech Squeezebox, and it doesn't seem to be working at all--so that's not the app's fault. The main station lately has had way too much sports (boring!) whenever I try to use the app, but what I have heard sounded good. Note to app creator: There is a typo in the app. When the HD-2 stream is selected, the app tells me I'm listening to WTDM, instead of WTMD. Granted, with that stream not working, it may indeed be "tedium" (TDM), but this should be fixed.

Respecting the elderly while craving new material!

As a former news writer and broadcasted musician of the Towson's former station in the late 80's, I enthusiastically promote this app. This is an excellent resource to tap into new and interesting media and a great way to keep in touch with the school that elevated your lifestyle through new friends and mostly memorable experiences. Let's face it, good and bad memories don't always advance themselves to top-shelf memory clusters. Funny how, though, that good music has a way of jarring said memories. Give this app a try - you won't be dissappointed.

Love this radio station

I absolute love this radio station and the app, but I would love to see a button or some other means to save a song to purchase later. Money is extremely tight right now and would probably buy each song everyday if I had the means. I currently use notes on my iPhone to keep a list, but having the ability within the app to save the song and not rely on my memory as I am an old guy in his mid fifties could be useful So if you app developers at Towson can work that i would be eternally grateful

Music that Matter

Gang. thanks for the kudos. I love our app. I had it on all Christmas morning on my phone in my apt and it never dropped out and sounded great. As Has been noted, a music app is only as good as the station it streams. WTMD has no commercials and asks our listeners to help select the music. So tune in and hear tunes commercial radio just won't play. You won't be disappointed in the app or the music.

Love it!!!

The HD stream doesn't seem to work. But having access to the most amazing music radio station at all times is priceless. When I heard this app advertised on their radio I literally cried out for joy. This is awesome and thank you for offering this to your listeners and everyone else!!

Awesome Music

We’ve been listening to this station through this app for years. The best music and DJs make this app indispensable. Downloaded and enjoy!

Love the station, app needs updating. Issues listed below.

I’ve been using the app and web streaming to listen while I’m traveling. I love the station. My problems with the app are thus: -Does not integrate with car play to have its own app on the screen in the car -Does not stop playing when a call comes in or will resume playing during the call. Fix these two and it’s almost perfect. The app for Radio Paradise works like a charm. Don’t see why this one is not. Thanks!

Track listing are not updating

The track listings have been the same for weeks. It would also be great to be able to see the upcoming schedule so we can see when the short news brief breaks will be on.

Buggy and Battery Draining

Tried to use the app to buy a song I just heard. Instead of taking me to the App Store I was sent to iTunes streaming service. 6 hours later I check why my battery has drained down 80%, and the sole culprit is this app. Great station, horrible app.

Not for music

The WTMD apps stream at 64k which is a level suited for voice not music. I find it’s like listening to AM radio. Even their HD version streams at 64k. I don’t think either app streams the individual track names. Overall crap, technically speaking.

Radio Bliss!!

The best radio station jammin on my iPhone. This application loads quickly and doesn't crash. The app, however, is just the conduit to the music and the staff that truly loves the music that they play. WTMD is listener supported and commercial-free. Get hooked!

Crashes

Does not seem compatible with the latest iPhone update. Streams initially, but freezes immediately. Disappointing because I've been looking for a way to listen to this amazing station.
