Radiolab App Reviews

Horrible

Crashes constantly on iPhone 5s, download doesnt work, doesnt work offline

Wow!

Such an intuitive app and fun to use. Has all of my favorite Radiolab content and is presented in a way that engages the user to explore and discover. Marvelous.

In need of fixes (v 1.02)

Some good ideas in the app, such as the integrated section to record the credits. The "Listen" section needs work. No place to mark episodes as listened to, cant open episode details without hitting play/pause, and the app (and the audio) consistently crash when my iPhone locks, so I cant turn an episode on while walking or etc. Looks pretty but not yet terribly functional.

Awesome!

This app is great for podcasts lovers! :)

Finest podcast, worst app.

It looks interesting...then you try to use the app... it is quite terrible. Somehow, on my iphone 4, the volume rocker stops updating the volume slider in the app(volume still changes), the app cannot run in the background, that means one cannot have the lock screen on and cant switch to any other app on the iphone, cant use it on my runs or walks etc. Dont spend a dime on this app, I highly regret it. I end up going to the Apple Podcast app or the Radiolab website. Please fix this app, its completely out of sorta with the quality of content.

Fix the bugs

Looks good guys but it crashes way too often. I cant get through a whole episode without having to relaunch the app.

More for the knowledge

When I heard the recent podcast ,I was surprised they have their new app. Ive been a radio lab listener for about two years now . I live in Toronto . I enjoy it amazingly .jad and Rob make a very good team as hosts There humorous , They make you think, There fun To listen to .Im learning about how to go around the app. Its a great turnover in listening .

Great job WNYC

Great app! I love that you can download, unlike other similar apps. No stability or audio issues so far on my iPhone 4s. What to do for a 5-star review? * long episode descriptions * ability to sort episodes by date or title * more in-episode content (eg links or images related to what Im hearing)

Wonderful show... Buggy app

Love the show but I wish I could get through an episode without the app crashing! About three minutes after my phone locks, the app crashes. Its extremely frustrating to have to find my place again and again. I do love the ability to download the episodes, it allows me to listen to them during my commute without using data... Well, for 5 minutes at a time between crashes. Fix the crashing and its a five star app. Thanks!

Great show, buggy app.

Love the show, but I cant listen for more than five minutes at a time without it crashing. Makes it too frustrating to use. This happens both on my iPhone 4S running 5.1 and my iPod 4th gen running 4.3.5. Id contact support instead of giving a bad review, but the support link leads to a useless "about" page. Please fix this, guys. (5 star app if you do.)

Crashes, unstable. Waiting for fixes.

Figured Id chime in too as I think this Apps rating it too high considering its stability problems. Its a great idea and Id love it if it worked but I find that its so unstable that Ive given up. Such a shame. Will never change my opinion of the brilliant radio show though :)

Catastrophically bad

This app is a disaster - the graphics are flashy and fun, but when it comes to actually, yknow, listening to Radiolab, it glitches and skips 30-60 seconds at least every 5 minutes or so. Completely unusable and embarrassing to the show.

Please fix app please...

Please fix... I love radiolab.... But the app doesnt work at all.... Unlistenable. Crashes constantly. Which is sad :( great show.. Bad app. Thanks!

Glitchy

Great content. Bad app. If you really want to help out, just donate to radiolab and listen to the free podcast.

Great show, unusable app

Graphics are nice but it crashes every 30-60 seconds while playing episodes, often taking other apps with it, so completely unusable.

Crashiiiiiiiiiiiing!!!!!

Yep, newly updated up.....still crashing. Annoying when you listen to the first 30 seconds and then......GONE! Guys, you need to find a firm that knows how to build software. Are you using Microsoft engineers?

Crashes constantly on startup

I cant even open the app at all right now. I click on the app, and it goes to the main screen with the office desk, then crashes within 3 seconds. Please fix this as I cannot use the app at all right now

A step in the right direction

Hasnt crashed for me since the new update, but there are still weird 30 second skips, keep on with the updates

Truly awful

I cant play podcast if phone unlocked or multitasking. Cuts out and crashes. Abysmal experience.

Doesnt work

Wow, glad I paid for an app that doesnt work. I cant download podcasts. This needs to be fixed.
