I cannot praise WMMR and their app more. Everything you need is on this app. From listening to their live broadcast to catching up on anything you’ve missed. It’s so easy to use whether you’re just listening or want to enter one of their many contests. Thank you for this amazing app and love, love, love Preston & Steve and the crew!!!
Been listening from day one from the other radio station days. They are a Philly standard and laughing all the time. Pierre show is a total must listen when you get to the area. Love you guys!
I listen to the morning show every day at my desk. The app freezes every 10-20 minutes and I have to force close it, re-start it, and listen to two Steven Singer ads just to get back to the show for another 10-20 minutes. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled, no difference. It also doesn’t matter if I’m on WiFi or not. I just wanna listen to Preston and Steve!
I’m one of those- you were my morning commute buddies. Now, I live in FL but can’t quit you for my morning. BUT- you drop out from time to time and have to restart the whole application.
He gives so much more than music, lots of info on groups and artists, as well as his commentary on current events. I enjoy listening to his show, feels like home. Cathy
I have been a loyal listener since 1969 when FM radio was a new thing! WMMR has always played the latest rock mixed with classic rock ! The Preston and Steve morning show is the best!!!
Change the commercials. I don't need to hear about some lady that smoked during pregnancy every 10 minutes. I literally close the app every time that commercial comes on.
This streaming station loses signal every day I have contacted management about it and it still stinks…. Definitely do not recommend 0/10. If I could give zero stars I would. I was listening until it shut off. July 10th 2024.
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I miss previous interface, no DJ interruptions & Song/artist info.
I want to give a 5 star rating and hope I can come back to change it but for now… Since the app change, I don’t see the transmitted titles & artist info to songs. The commercials are area based to wherever you are so it cuts off the regular live-streamed programs! I hate that the commercials cuts off the DJs before and after heading into commercials. I like how simple the app format was before the new change when it was 93.3 WMMR that I could find the categories like station DJs, events/concerts, Philly region events the radio station was involved with… The previous interface was great. I’ve been using the livestream app and website since I first discovered it back in 2006! I am a iPhone user. The app has been in pretty good running condition through all the changes. I know it went through 2 down periods but the tech seemed to have improved. I don’t listen to other Beasley stations. I just listen to 93.3 WMMR!
I don't really know what people are experiencing but mine works fine. I put on live or the podcasts and will just listen, even while doing other things on my phone. Even some games will play their noises while I am listening. The app could have a better user interface because it seems out dated but it is very simple to use.
This upgrade is terrible. It’s nice that I can customize the home page, I guess. But I didn’t need to customize it until now, because you added a bunch of irrelevant filler to it. (Other stations? Why? The app is for WMMR.) You’ve taken away the descriptions of the podcasts, so unless I know the exact date that something or someone was on, I can’t find it again. You’ve removed the highlights (I just went looking for Kathy’s Fall Activities. They’re nowhere to be found on the whole app). You also took away the “table of contents” screen when a podcast is playing. I don’t know what it’s really called, but the screen used to allow you to start and stop the podcast at certain labeled sections. That’s gone now. If your goal was to make the app more cumbersome, nice job! You did it. I have no idea if the connectivity has improved, because I’m listening through the web page now. Please don’t “improve” that the way you did the app.
Edit: the app is still terrible. Today it kept crashing, playing the commercial about three times when I just decided to give up. If the presence of the annoying commercial improved the stability of the app, that would be one thing but it doesn’t! I’ve had the app for a long time. It would crash all the time. One day I got a message that the app may no longer be supported so I went to the app store looking for a new version. I thought it was weird that the app didn't update automatically but I thought whatever and downloaded the app again. Omg that Steven Singer commercial every time you hit the play button is so f'in annoying! And the app STILL crashes or the stream isn't available from time to time. If we have to sit thru that repetitive commercial, at least improve the stability of the app.
I personally do enjoy this station way more then any other station in Philadelphia .The only thing that gets old is the Fliers games that chops Bam Bam’s program all up even though it is only select games they do air but that’s plenty enough when the music is the medicine it just stop’s the whole vibe and leaves Bam Bam a bad way to go that’s it , but I’m sure it’s most definitely in the stations best interest to air these games and nothing against the Fliers or fans I would prefer music but who am I just a thought WMMR Rocks!!!
So far this morning the app has stopped literally six times in about 2 to 3 hours. I have no idea why. My phone is connected to my local WiFi too, which doesn’t have the same issues. In addition, the way that commercials are delivered is really bad. Middle of a song? No problem, Steven Singer has an ad for you to completely interrupt it. While I can understand using commercials, why are they in the middle of a song? After more use, I’m taking away another star. WMMR, this app is embarrassing. It literally stops all of the time! I stream TV with less issues! I wouldn’t publish this app in the state that it is in. I love WMMR. Why would you punish your loyal listeners with this?
As of April 2019. First the good... I can listen live with a simple click at the bottom of the app. The bad... everything else. I’m a podcaster and this app is horrible for downloading and finding episodes. 1-when you click download, it instantly starts playing that episode, 2-it will not remember where you left off on the episodes. It starts back at the beginning when you open the app back up. 3-you can’t organize your downloaded episodes. 4-the daily rush video usually does not play or pops up an error 5- links randomly don’t work. This app is currently trash for a number one radio station. Fix it or throw it in the junk drawer and hopefully Preston never finds it.
**Update*** Thank you for addressing the problems with the app crashing! I can now listen to the app without issues. I love the new, simplified design of this app. It's easy to find archive sessions (I do wish newer sessions were available) and I like that the Preston & Steve podcasts are readily available. I just updated the app to the newest version, and it's rendered the app completely useless. When I try to listen love, I hear the commercial, then the app completely shuts down. Will change review when this is fixed, but for now DO NOT UPDATE THE APP, folks!
With the update I can no longer pause the app using my AirPods. I’ve reset and re synced AirPods and problem still exists. I also checked other music apps and the problem only exists with this app. I have to remove AirPods to communicate with people when I’m listening to your app. I might as well move on to another app that works correctly. Please resolve this issue as I live the station and it’s personalities and music but this is a real hassle.
I deeply enjoy the station but this app is a bit annoying to use. Any notification stops the app. Texts, email, FB notifications, locking the screen. Full Stops playing and then doesn’t play again and have to wait for it to load again most times it will not load forcing you to have to close the app re open and hit play again. Then you go to lock the screen have to hit play Again. I just want to work, listen and not have to touch my phone every time I get a notification.
Born and raised in Philly and have been a die hard MMR fan for as long as I could operate a radio. I've moved away but this app has allowed me to stay connected and listen to good radio where ever I am. I have not had any problems with streaming or the app crashing...either it's fixed or I'm just lucky. Thank you WMMR for being awesome.
I’ve used this app for a few years. It used to be awful, and I was using iHeartRadio for a while to stream hem. But, they’ve fixed whatever was the issue with dropping the signal. So, now the app works great, and I don’t need a login to listen.
Clunky and slow. Half the time the app fails to open properly and sometimes it doesn’t recognise that I’m on LTE and tells me that I “appear to be offline”. The only saving grace is that it forces me to put on a CD in the car, which means: (1) the quality of music is better than their stale and tired old playlist (no Bob Marley - yay !); (2) I don’t have to listen to those morons on the Preston & Steve Show; and (3) I don’t have to hear that insufferable, pompous old bell-end, Pierre Robert !
Apple CarPlay no longer supports this app for streaming on long road trips. Also, the new app itself is way too cumbersome. It was much simpler and easier to use before. Also when a song is streaming, the app used to give you the artist, song and album (and even sometime album cover photo), but not anymore. Only reason why it gets two stars instead of three is because the streaming appears to be improved.
Plays in the background while I use other apps and unlike the actual station comes though clear as day. Unfortunately WMMR hasn't worked where I live in South Jersey for like 4 years since we had a bad storm and all sorts of radio waves still don't work clearly. Awesome app
The app doesn't buffer if it's not the only app you're looking at. I have to start it and make sure the screen stays on until the stream starts. Then, randomly it'll just stop playing and you'll have to reopen the app to let it buffer properly. I had to stop using it and switch to another radio app. Still listening to MMR, but more consistent. I would've given it one star, but it's MMR! MMR rocks!
This app is forever crashing at random times, which is frustrating when you're just trying to listen to the stream. It also seems to buffer a lot when played in the background and only restarts when you open the app back up. Overall full of annoying bugs.
Big step backward with this latest release. Stream cuts out frequently. Camera can not be viewed while listening. Odd app was much better. Wish I could get it back. This needs a lot of work. Went from 2 stars to 0...after a few weeks of working poorly, I am now having the same issue as others with the app just simply not opening. Very disappointing.
The app used to work decently for me in the past but within the past six months it has become a disaster. Its the only way I can listen at work but now the app crashes within minutes of opening it. Tried deleting and reloading and that did great the first day bit its now back to crash city with a record of 30 to crash. I have now deleted the app its so bad meaning no more P&S.
It was great before the update. But when you are listening online, during commercial breaks, it switches to other music, but then when it switches back to live broadcast, their is a 20-30 second delay of silence.
The past 2 weeks the app has worked terribly. It cuts out and loses the feed at least once every 10 minutes. Some of the audio doesn't come through, for example the intro music during Preston and Steve. Hopefully these issues can be fixed so the app can be used as it was in the past
Great for listening live, but when you are listening to a P&S podcast and switch to a different app, the WMMR app will have to configure. It then forgets where you were in the podcast and you have to reload it. Also the podcast vault shows cause the app to crash every time.
I agree that this app could use some work to help keep it from crashing all the time. I recommend using the TuneIn radio app until it gets fixed. I never have a problem with that one, it allows to always listen to Preston and Steve live in Milwaukee!
This new version is just about useless. I have tried to use it at least ten times in the last week and it freezes/endlessly buffers every time. Using iOS 10 whatever. I’ve given up and gone back to my 4th gen iPod Touch running iOS 5. Works every time with the ancient mmr app- no issues & imo the audio sounds better running over Safari.
