9.0.1 is terrible

Please revert this app to the version before 9.0.1. You made it painful to use. Pause button on lock screen broken Nagging popups asking for location information Unpausing after switching from another app plays the rest of the audio from the ad I skipped instead of the show, and then silence After restarting app to get it to work again, you force me to watch another ad, again, skip ad again when timer counts down, and tell you I won’t share my location information, again. Far too many clicks. Many more bugs Anger at app gets associated with your sponsor

I’ve been an avid and continuous user and listener of the KTAR app for quite some time now. To make it a bigger hassle to require folks to login or register just to listen to the show on the app is a big no thanks from me. I’ll continue listening on the radio in my vehicle periodically, but the app is where I was listening to my favorite shows and segments on here without the need to sign up.

Too many advertisements!

The 72Sold advertisement every time I open the app is very annoying. Also the amount of advertisements through any show is ridiculous! I would be listening the KTAR app on my phone and I would get in a vehicle for work at the same time and I have listen to about three minutes worth of ads on my phone! However, the radio host is carrying on with the show in vehicles radio. LIMIT THE ADS IN THE APP PLEASE.

Constant crashing

Please fix this app!! It constantly crashes all the time all day have to always go to the app and restart if for it to continues playing. It’s not my phone it’s the app, my wife has a brand new iPhone 14 and it does the same for her. So frustrating

Good app update

This app has improved with their latest update.

This update ruined the app

Now, not only do I have to listen to the commercial before the station opens to commercials, but it also just sounds like it went to dead air every few seconds. Will uninstall app soon if it’s not fixed

App was never great. Now you’re forced to create account

The app was never great, but it was tolerable at times. Absolutely no interest in creating another login for yet another app. No longer even mildly worth the trouble. Removed app. Will use podcast if I want to listen.

All this plays is ads

Where is the actual program I want to listen to?? This is garbage. You MUST listen to 10 minutes of back to back ads. Then the program starts. Don’t waste your time. Deleting app.

9.1.1 update is no good

Sign in to read the news. No thanks. Sell my email for more money, no thanks. There are plenty of options out there. I’ll reload once they fix this.

Not sure the developer uses the app

Do you guys even use the app? Massive battery drain and phone gets really hot when using. Other live streaming radio apps don’t have these issues.

Now requires your personal info? No!!!!!

So this app was decent until KTAR recently began requiring an account with your personal information. I’m not going to give that out - there’s no reason you need it. So goodbye KTAR!

No landscape mode

I installed this on my iPad. It is always in landscape mode, and the display insisted on staying in portrait mode. I deleted the application.

Very sad

Very disappointing revision. Does the money greed ever end. Will longer support your Phoenix sponsors like Sanderson Ford.

More Advertisements Than Actual Content

You have to watch an advertisement every single time you open the app if you want to listen to the radio. Radio show hosts talk for 30 seconds then go to commercial (more ads) this station has more ads than actual content. Comments section at the bottom of each news article is filled with ignorant vile racists, obviously this station doesn’t do any moderation. Just listen to KJZZ instead, at least you can listen to the news without a thousand advertisements in between.

What happened?

With the new update, the podcasts go in reverse. So now I have to either listen the podcasts out of order or I have to go back in the app and click on the podcasts. So dumb. Would be nice if it could change to the old format.

Great! except 1 thing...

I LOVE KTAR, and love this new app. Much better than the last app. However... It doesn't let me sign in. I have tried many different times. I can sign in online, so I know I have the right email/password, but it says they're invalid when I try to login.

Perfect

Nothing wrong with this app. Works great. Only a 15 second commercial when you first open the app. Not unlike many other apps

Annoying commercial

Every time you start the app you have to listen to a commercial. Commercial could be pictured around the app display without listening to an entire add play every Time I turn it on. I miss half of the news waiting for the commercial to end.

Bunch of ads

Terrible! If I want to quickly pull up the app to listen to some breaking (and import) news it forces you to sit through a long ad. You can’t even mute it while in your car because then the ad will stop. And heaven forbid your signal gets interrupted because then you have to restart the app and listen to the ads again

Crashes all the time and 72 Sold adds are ridiculous

So I get a notification to tune into KTAR for breaking news and by the time I login and get through the 72 sold advertisement the news has ben reported and onto the next thing. Ok… maybe I’ll try listening to one of the podcast. Nope. Crashes every time. I’ve just resorted to using TuneIn.

Poor performance.

I got this app because I moved from AZ to FL, but I still love listening to Mac & Gaydos. The problem is the app is way too unstable. Only works for about 2 min, then crashes. Constantly repeating/double talking over itself. I've tried resetting my phone, network settings, deleting the app & reinstalling it, nothing improves. Sadly, probably one of the worst apps I've ever dealt with.

Annoying ad to start listening

Now you have to watch a 15 second ad every 15-20 minutes now. I used to hit play and listen for hours on end, now I have to do this garbage. 70% of every hour of listening is already an annoying ad, now you have to watch one every 20 minutes. Absolutely BS and garbage.

App used to work great

App is twitchy and buggy the last few weeks. It will start and stop streaming and start over. I think it's a way to make us watch the silly commercial at the beginning.

So I've had this app all of 10 minutes....

I love this station but your app is annoying!!! It buffers CONSTANTLY!! In the 10 minutes is that I've had the app I have actually heard maybe 4 minutes of the show. So disappointing 😟

Horrible App

This app constantly drops while listening. I have always had issues with it since downloading it a few years ago. Completely unreliable. Also HATE that I'm forced to listen to a commercial before getting to the live radio. So frustrated with this app!

KTAR what a disappointment

My first review ever. I have over 200 apps on my phone and have NEVER been so disappointed because I expected this app to work. I wanted to listen to KTAR, but instead I listened to more than 5 minutes straight of commercials. Not what I was expecting. It must be a big bug. Where was the live feed?

Whose nephew wrote this piece of dreck?

The feature that’s supposed to allow me to log in to comment on articles is badly broken. I complete the captcha and then click on the userid field and it throws me back to the article.

3 years ago, alenebailey

Terrible!

As you read some of the news stories, it gives you a few seconds to read before it scrolls back to the main page. Completely annoying. I can’t believe that they don’t fix this!

An advertisement app with some radio content

Using this app is NOTHING like turning on the radio to 92.3. This is an advertisement delivery app first and foremost. If you want this app for the primary purpose of listening to the radio, you will be disappointed. Browsing the “print” news articles is similar to any other news app. If trying to listen, you will have the 72 Sold commercial memorized within the first day. If you pause the playback for any period of time, or switch to another app that requires audio, you’ll get to listen to more ads each time you resume playback. Do yourself a favor and go to KTAR.com and click on the “listen live” link.

4 years ago, click fraud

Advertising in news feed

There is absolutely no way to scroll the news feed without accidentally clicking on the advertisements that randomly appear. It is borderline click fraud. Hopefully it is just a mistake in the coding, but it feels intentional. Please fix.

Does Not Download News Properly

For the past week only one article has downloaded. I have tried reloading app and restarting phone without success. Only app with issues, if not fixed soon the app will be deleted permanently

9 years ago, Imperius*Rex

Downhill struggle

A news app with out news is almost worthless. Over the last few weeks headlines do not work and on demand sign up takes you to a 404 screen. The only redeeming content is the live streaming but now half the day seems to be Dave Ramsey reruns.

Bad app Good New

Shows are great! Morning and afternoon. The finance guy from 12-2 doesn’t belong though. The app works when it wants to work. If you pause show, you’re subject to the same commercial intro when first signing on. More commercials than news...

Won’t play

Freezing up, won’t play, I’m guessing because there is an advertisement trying to play but won’t load.

Trash

In addition to the buggy commercial stuff, the app also has a tendency to have trash audio and sounds like crackling constantly. Unusable.

Buggy

Littered with bugs. Has gotten worse with each version release.

Unusable

Shuts off when your screen goes to sleep.

Garbage ?

After reading the reviews I didn’t even try to download it

9 years ago, Msburgis

Won't turn

I don't care how good an app is, if it won't turn landscape, which is how I keep my iPad, it won't do me much good.

9 years ago, Azlandpro

Don't waste your time!

Download app - delete it! Shameful! How about no stars!

This app suks

If I could give it no stars I would. Constant drop outs.

Low grade

One the worst app’s I’ve ever dealt with…

Can’t play station while my screen is off?!

Ok, it is almost 2019. So why can I not play your app station while my iPhone screen is off? I don’t get it. I like listening to your station, but come on! When I go walking my dogs, I really REALLY don’t want my phones screen on constantly just to stream your app. Only YouTube pulls this crap, and guess what? I no longer listen to music from YouTube while out and about, I don’t want my battery drained due to the always-on demand! I think it’s pointless and stupid.
