You can now stream KEXP to the iPhone with the official KEXP iPhone app. The first version of our app allows you to listen to either our 128k or 32k live stream, to keep track ...
I ve been a devote KEXP listener and contributor for the past 15 years It is hands down the best radio station in the US universe The website and app have potential but are frequently buggy especially the show archives The app behaves inconsistently across my iPhone and iPad and even my wife s iPhone Why does the app play from different and wrong time stamps when I try on multiple devices to play the same archived show Seek Destroy The live stream generally works great though except the artist info won t load on my wife s phone Thanks KEXP for being awesome IRL where it matters Please help out your digital cyber app though Give your robot army a fighting chance in the matrix             KEXP rules app needs help Boudrodog
For the most part I really like this app The one thing I hate if you have Apple AirPods and you pull one of them out of your ear to pause the music and talk to a coworker the music stops and you are forced to listen to the intro ad every time Super annoying Edit 1 9 2018 this has been fixed                     Great Theulysses
The live playback has been pretty awesome                 So far it is pretty pretty good 3hittolumby
Thanks so much for fixing the looping problem I ve been listening to the first 5 minutes of Larry s Lounge Wo Pop and Riz s show for awhile now and am SO GLAD to be able to listen to the whole show on my phone and to be able to select the start time for when I leave and come back to it Keep up the good work Devs We appreciate it                 Hooray Show Archive works polkloruli tsiqvi
The app is pretty good but really poorly optimized for the iPhone X The top bar is just completely white obscuring the status bar and just visually displeasing and the bottom bar is partially cut off by the home bar apple places It seems like the developers didnt really have a physical device to test it out             Not well optimized for iPhone X vladzaharia
The live stream is The only feature that works Cannot stream archives and the big that allows you to control volume via AirPlay was finally fixed Great example of a poor application that was rushed before being thoroughly tested I hope the Software Development Comp behind this app is hard at work to fix it         Trash functionality 5(?&$67777;(&9((()$&
I m lucky to live in Seattle so I listen on the radio I use the app to track songs I like so the Favorites feature is key for me And I really don t like the one created for this app First when I click the heart to favorite a song the next song shows a heart automatically but it s not really favorited just looks like it So I have to unclick the heart that the app put there then click the heart again to actually favorite it That has to be a bug right Second the favorites list is sorted alphabetically by song name and I find that useless I favorite songs when I m driving to look them up later For me ordering them by date favorited is the only way I can figure out what I added earlier today vs two weeks ago The whole point of the list is so I don t have to remember song names when I hear them but that s how the app sorts them Think of a person s favorites list as a condensed personalized version of the playlist If that makes sense to you then keeping them in the order played should too Or at least give us the option to choose to order them in the way we want Third the way to remove a song from your list is to click on the filled in heart But the app has a delay you click and it doesn t respond immediately as we ve been trained to expect So inevitably I click it again But then I remember that there s a delay and I see that now I ve deleted the song I intended to delete plus the one after it defeating for that song whatever it was my whole reason for using the app This has happened multiple times This app is better than nothing but it seems like too much effort went into look and feel don t care about that and not enough into usability         Needs usability improvements rolloa
The soft serve update keeps crashing my phone every time I play Purple Rain Please address in the next update PS I m putting in a vote here for chocolate as a flavor option maybe even open the door for swirl         Soft serve not working Rev_Otto
Not quite 4 star app material but the current version is such an improvement that I m feeling star generous Streaming archive now works pretty well you can actually select the start time although audio quality is pretty woeful Interface still isn t very intuitive but maybe I ll get used to it since the app actually stays open So better and less buggy than the website Thanks devs                 Getting better Nathan—
I m a big fan of this app and so grateful I can stream KEXP on the go I ve noticed a decent bug in the app regarding favorites since updating two updates ago I favor a song I hear but when returning to favorite tab to look up the song I notice it s not there Yet when the song is played again it shows I have favorited said song Besides streaming KEXP on the go being able to collect catalog the songs I love and want to remember is a big reason I use this app Could you peeps take a look into this If you need any screenshots or my info with the problem I am having email me at jeybirdsmusic at gmail dot com Cheers                 Favorites Jey Parks
Woohoo They re up to 3 stars The fact that I m so excited about this getting up to 3 star land reflects just how horrible this app has been over the last few years With the amount of money that listeners have pledged to KEXP over the years and how much of our collective listening is done online it is ridiculous how much they have neglected the app The app SHOULD be a portal to access all of their archived live shows and all their videos as well But I can dream I d settle for this working in landscape on the iPad so I don t have to turn myself sideways to choose a show Seriously just make this not look ugly and I d bump it to a four star review That is where the bar is set And dare I wish for CarPlay compatibility As usual I d be willing to throw a nice pledge your way once you show some commitment to adding to the app Sarcasm here aside I m heartened that the app actually works and seems to be getting much needed attention Please please please keep it up             Playing catch up Please keep going rcniman
I was thrilled when the latest update finally fixed the streaming archive problems Too bad that only lasted about a month RIP streaming archives Then again their website s archives seem to always have issues as well Additionally I feel as if the quality is better when using the TuneIn app             It was good for a little bit ArtofSC
it just stopped It looks pretty and all but it does not work now     Worked fine for years then Grateful Phred
Why does the music constantly cut out when I use this app It s so irritating I just wanna listen to KEXP         Love kexp hate this app vida666
This app is great if you want to listen in live time but I cannot get it to last long in my car without device unsupported appearing on my dash panel ALL other radio apps work in my car just fine Archived shows don t show up Always defaults to the same Afternoon Show I live away from Seattle now and really miss the blues show and Greg Vandy Perhaps my age is unable to decipher what is intuitive to everyone else I ve downloaded every iteration Is there a class or a video that I can watch to make this work Arrrrgh         Unsupported in car Archived shows won t work grrLAboy
El Sonido is the best                     Awesome support and the archive works great with the latest update Phil Edry
The best part of KEXP s website is the streaming archive which I ve never been able to get working on my phone This app got it working I had to restart my iPhone after loading it but now working without a hitch And it says that Spotify functionality is coming Sonos the functionality would make it complete                 Needed update came through with streaming archive functionality dasvision
Really enjoying the updated app thank you I have been using it literally everyday to and from work since the update It is intuitive and has the essential features and I really love the ability to save favorites and have quick access to the playlist I should note that I tried using the older app a couple of times but resorted to streaming KEXP through a different radio app which was much less enjoyable This update was quite welcome A few suggestions for future updates 1 It would be great to have favorites synced across devices and maybe website via an optional user registration 2 Adding lanscape support for iPad would be great I use iPad at home with a keyboard stand and looking at the playlist sideways is a little awkward 3 Support for player controls with song title display in the lock screen would be a nice touch 4 This is defintiely a wishlist suggestion but the ability to download archived shows to device would be a lifesaver as a subway rider Thanks again for the app update and the great music and looking forward to the next update Mike M NYC listening since 2003                     What a great update Mike M, NYC
Hey guys Thank you so much for the new update it looks gorgeous and the layout is p solid for all the features you provide One thing tho the time display at the top of the screen disappears when you open the app Idk personally I d still like to be able to see the time regardless of what app I m running Tyy                 Missing time Mandycamps
As a Seattlite from afar I depend on the app to listen to my favorite radio station Since the app was broken for a long minute I used the Tune In App to listen and I m thrilled to see the new UI I agree to change the default to 128Kbps because I got scared how crappy 32 Kbps was                 Almost there Yessicahc
When will this be fixed Streaming archive never works     Still doesn t work roxg99
Love it two suggestions 1 It s 2017 default to 128kbps or 64kbps 32kbps sounds awful 2 Make track info available over Bluetooth so it displays on supported services eg car audio consoles This is really key for me as I usually have my phone displaying GPS but would also like to see what track is playing                 Looks great tbomb80
Firstly thanks so much for providing a new app So far so good with one limitation Show archives need to be scrubbable so as to rewind and fast forward                 New app looks great almost fully functional Digi_Doug
The old app worked in horizontal mode Now I have to look at everything sideways if i want to keep my iPad in its Bluetooth keyboard case Otherwise it seems solid                 Needs horizontal orientation for ipad DJ CrafD
I had no idea this was even happening it was a great surprise yesterday I love the ease of use pictures of the djs easy to request songs and the playlist My only recommendation would be for the song and artist title to appear on the lock screen Other than that great job                     New app is AWESOME Cielofacekilla
Data is not transmitted to my car s display So if I m driving and I want to know the name of the song artist I have to grab my phone to look Not safe I drive a Prius all other app music stations transmit the data and the previous kexp app did as well Can this be an improvement Thanks             Great from previous but Norbet8888
The new app won t even open on my iPhone 5 love kexp and used my old app all the time so this is such a bummer     Won t Open TimethQuet
Tons of features without compromising the most important thing the stream The only thing I d suggest is upping the default bitrate not sure how many users would think twice to check the settings or how many would hesitate to stream at 128 Fantastic build                     Everything you d expect and more notmayorga
Such am amazing app Has everything I thought KEXP should be capable of Playlists archives uptodate events song information and download options If I dreamed up an app it would look like this Great work                 TuneIn and NPRapp Have Nothin on This
Live streaming works perfectly but playing the steaming archive is a real crapshoot It literally wont play them most of the time which is very frustrating The UI loads up the current song the pause button is visible for a few seconds and then changes to a play button No sound ever comes out You can tap play until your finger wears a hole in the screen but good luck getting it to play This thing needs some real attention        Streaming archive woes
Dear kexp I love you Your streaming archive is great Favoriting songs is great Everything is great Its a little buggy If I play something else on the iPhone itll pause the stream but wont start up again And sometimes it sounds a little funky But its still function and I love it              A bit buggy but I still love it
Frequent problems with the stream andor some sort of fail The flow of this app feels clunky I hope that you will make a full new version because it feels like it has larger issues throughout Would give one star because the app is not so good but two stars because when it does work occasionally John Richards in the morning is wonderful I hope that you will make these changes I love kexp        Issues
Crashes on initiation IPhone 4S with latest iOS     Crashes
Love the app Two big UI requests The favorites star on the Listen Now screen is right above the Favorites star on the menu Theres plenty of room for bigger buttons to start with But dont put the identical symbol right on top of itself please please Also unselected Favorites in nav is grey unselected favorites in Listen Now is white So when I see what song is playing I automatically assume Ive already liked it because the star looks selected when compared with the nav star Please make their states identical for consistency sake Obviously flat design hit big right after you released this and the website itself is badly in need of a flat responsive overhaul but if the next iteration could have bigger buttons and flat icons that would make it easier to use 1 on exporting favorites I get hundreds then have to go through them by hand Thanks for all your hard work              Wishes for edits in the next version
I downloaded the app and I loved it immediately However Halfway into the second song it cut out I tried all sorts of tricks but the only way to recover the stream was to quit the app restart it and select the time the song was playing I figured that was a onetime issue but its chronic Halfway into the second song it cuts out Every time Im on wifi so its not a datacell connection issue This app will get 5 stars once it can play without cutting out Until then Ive gotta give it 4              Perfect for 15 songs at a time
Great addition More reggae more often Cant go wrong                 Thanks for adding streaming archive
Love being able to listen to old shows The new app looks and works great too                 Awesome upgrade
Refuses to play when I select the archive show Too boogie to be useful        Not reliable
Wouldnt launch after upgrading Deleted and installed again Now it works New version is much better My old favorites are gone though so write yours down first if you want that info                 4S iOS5 upgrade prob fixed by reinstall
Nooooo How will I get my Morning Show My Roadhouse My Sonic Reducer Please get an updated update out ASAP        New updates crashes on load
It starts fine but every time I try to choose a genre from the show archive section the app closes Im basically limited to watching the videos that are on the first page Hopefully they can get this fixed     Doesnt work
I can listen to the archives I can choose a stream bitrate Would love to see the album art              A big imovement Well done
Playpause function does not work It will instead stop KEXP and start playing the last music app I used Pandora iTunes or any other fully functional streaming apps Also the App randomly stops functioning and I need to use the playpause button in the App to restart        Love KEXP app needs improvement
I have a lot of errors when trying to stream past shows like Expansions or if I want to listen to a specific DJ It just does not play The only time the app plays is when is live streaming which is still awesome thank you Hopefully itll get sorted soon Thank you KEXP              Streaming Archive Errors
At long last archived shows on demand via mobile Thank you thank you thank you Were so blessed with KEXP                 Amazing Now with archived shows
Like other reviewers I was bummed the update kept crashing on my iPhone 4 I deleted it and reinstalled the app now it works just fine Sadly Ive lost over 2 years of favorites On the upside I now have John and Cheryl back in my home and car The new features are great the 256Kbps playback option rules Only wish they had added a button to switch playback options like in iTunes and the This American Life app                 Reinstall to fix crash on iPhone 4
Simple to use Includes track names albums and artists                 Kexp rocks
love kexp keep it up the show archive thing stopped working for me once i got iphone 6 it wants to play but nothing i would love to see each show made into a podcast and would love to see kexp app added to tmobile free music streaming              buggs
bestappever                 Yes
I love streaming kexp while driving and while at work but since all streaming is blocked at my work I have no choice but to use the app for listening When trying to listen to the archive I constantly get the error stream error message especially when trying to listen to Kid Hops shows If I do get it the archive to work I find it frustrating that you cant pause and resume listening You have no choice but to select a time point to play but if I need to pause it how am I supposed to know where I left off It would be a great benefit if the pause feature would actually pause and allow the show to resume where left off Im hoping that there will be a new release that will correct these issues so I can take more advantage of the archive listening especially since Im not living in the Seattle time zone I always listen and support KEXP and will continue to hope for a new release of the app in the future        Love KEXP but this app needs some serious TLC
The app works fine but it would be nice to see it updated with a better interface but dont take the Donate button away thats honestly a good guilt piece           Does The Job
I was psyched to find a KEXP app but after just 15 minutes of listening it stopped working I returned to the home page and now only the first 10 sec of advertisement plays before freezing Ive tried multiple options and all fail     Not worth downloading
phenomenal love the Show Archive feature                 phenomenal love the Show Archive feature
The favorites and archived shows are two very welcome features However it seems a little buggy on my iPad 2 If I start the live stream then stop it I know I know why would I really want to do that anyway it will not restart The stop button doesnt work and an iPad restart is the only way to restore functionality Otherwise this is a really nice app from probably the best radio station Ive ever had the pleasure of rocking to Thanks KEXP looking forward to the next update              Miles Ahead of Last but Fixes Needed
App needs a little work when I listen to MY MAN DJ RIZ love you I was a fan back when you were at PLU and I had to drive all the way to the parking lot to get good signal in my car on an archived expansions show I get lost in the app once I navigate away from the now playing page For example if I star a track and read more info about it all I have is the back and donate now buttons to navigate with which dont take me to the shows playing now page that I need to keep up with what the current track is Please fix           Love the station
Doesnt launch     Crashes on iPhone 5 with up to date iOS
As others have said this app crashes and wont open Tried numerous times Big bummer as I love KEXP I hope they fix this soon     Dont upgrade yet
Latest upgrade still crashing iPhone 4s Sad in Louisville     Dont upgrade
Stream drops constantly after 12 minutes of play           Fix the flow
New update the app is crushing on a start screen     Keep crushing
KEXP is such a gem Love this app                 Killin it
I dont know what imperfections some of you are talking about I live in Long Beach CA and this is the greatest radio station Ive heard ever You can check out their playlist for recent songs and also book mark your favorites so you can go back to it or buy the songs on iTunes As long as KEXP keeps playing awesome music EFF the improvements of the app Its great and easy to use                 Awesome
My kids love that we can play Shake The Shack at random times during the week and have impromptu dance parties              Show archive is great
installed upgrade last night on iPhone 4s doesnt initialize probably lost a year of favorites waiting for tech support to reply LOVE KEXP love the old app new app looks great on friends iphone 5 bummed no warning about iOs prior to upgrading sure theyll sort it out     careful if dont have iOs 60 doesnt work
this app has just gotten even better now that I can stream archives I love kexp                 love
Fix it Fix it now     Needs so much improvement
Trying to use this app at my university lab No music Everything else works still Ill listen to the Current radio instead I guess     Basically doesnt work
Version 20 is good Runs well and the archives is a good strategic business plan I was about to delete this app but the update made it better                 Great update 20
Ive had zero problems with the app 2weeks Kexp is what radio is supposed to be Music programmed by individuals not corporations or computers I like the DJs having a personality They play something that seems disconnected but then bring me back on the next song with old school or something a little more familiar Its like listening with your musically enlightened buddy                 Works great for me
Seeing the reviews I was skeptical but it has worked perfectly for me Its a great app just a bit too simple The amazing music is worth it              It works
Crashes every time have iphone 5 and uptodate software still doesnt work So sad i upgraded     New update doesnt work dont upgrade
KEXP have been great innovators in streaming radio so its nice to see a much more functional app The streaming archive is fantastic                 Great improvement
This lets me listen to KEXP on my iPad What more do I need Its also nice to be able to see what song is playing when the iPad is locked and it lets me choose different music quality in case the Internet is bad No complaints plus a great radio station                 Does what it ought to do
More westerly than CJAM                 KEXP
The newest KEXP update has said installing with 0 progress on my iPhone for about a week now Is my iPhone 4 just too old If so how can I make it stop trying to update so I can listen to KEXP again     Will not update
if it had no splash screen at launch if it detected horizontal iPad orientation at launch if it let you pause then resume playing of past streams and if streaming worked all the time              Could be 5 stars
Whenever I try to click on a genre in the show archives page it quits out of the app on iPad with iOS 7 It souls be really nice if kexp would fix this Otherwise good mobile counterpart for a fantastic radio station           Good but genres dont work
I love the content the app purports to offer just wish I could reliably access it from my iPad This app freezes and shuts down or theres an error in playback more often than not Will have to keep firing up the old laptop to listen to my Sunday morning blues        Too buggy to be very useful
