Whoa! The WKAR app is now sucking battery life like crazy in the background, without even opening the app. It is using more battery life in the background than apps I'm using in the foreground. One star until they fix this. Otherwise... Good app, simple to get to live broadcasts. I would like to have more radio content - for example, your 24-hour jazz stream. I would also love to have access to your locally produced music programming, especially Michigan Matinee and MSU In Concert. Thank you.

I'm always impressed with PBS, now that we use streaming TV, I get several different PBS services and the PBS app. Too. Yes, we love our PBS!

Love that I can read AND listen to stories, but the schedule is often wrong and the live stream cuts off at random
