After you hit "play", if you minimize the app or turn off your screen, the radio won't actually play until you go back into the app and click "continue". Totally unnecessary. Please fix.

Fix the Android app! Constantly stops working. You can clear the cache, reboot the phone, no improvement! Stream stops whether or not you have other apps open on the phone. Very VERY frustrating.

App constantly stops working! I love and support the station but the app is frustrating! It stops repeatedly and when you hit play again, you've missed the story. Before you could at least back up to the point you had been at but now they've removed that ability. I won't stop listening or supporting the station but I think I'm giving up on the app for now. Please improve it!!

KPCC has great hosts and local segments. Also appreciate content from APM and NPR. This app has its ups and downs. Upset by removal of rewind. It crashed my phone when it was removed right in the middle of listening. APM morning report comes on right about shower time. Pause was great for that. No wasted water. I am an auto renewing monthly direct contributer to KPCC. I guess my next bump up goes to APM instead so I support their morning report podcast.
