I also experienced the app stopping randomly. Frustrating. I love kuhf, wish the app made it easy to listen.

K70%
by K####:

Keeps pausing and won't keep playing. It's very frustrating

S70%
by S####:

This app constantly stops and starts randomly. I can't walk away from my phone because I have to press play to restart it.

K70%
by K####:

I've installed and uninstalled this app hoping it would solve the problem but it keeps stopping the news stream. I want my public radio but I don't have a radio!

P70%
by P####:

Unless you can explain to my satisfaction why this app needs access to my phone and phone logs, I will not be updating it. Now or ever.

Q70%
by Q####:

Same issue reported by others.

K70%
by K####:

Anytime I'm listening to this app, at some point it invariably starts buffering and I lose important news that I was listening to. And then it starts playing and then it starts buffering. I don't know what this bug is but if you're relying on it to get news it won't work

K70%
by K####:

Freezes and shuts down. Wish it worked properly, especially since I'm a supporter of the station.

K70%
by K####:

Icon stays at top of home screen after closing the app unless the app's data is cleared in Settings.

K70%
by K####:

It keeps stopping... Over and over again. I have to stop what I'm doing, pull out my phone, enter my password, open the app, and resume play every few minutes. VERY AGGRAVATING

K70%
by K####:

I'm disappointed in how the reporters of NPR conducted their selves during the election. This is supposed to be PUBLICLY funded radio for EVERYONE and not the minority liberals we allowed to take over our country! Stop accepting Soros money and go back to being the PEOPLE'S radio!!!

Where's the utf'8 format or ogg speex, F to Houston, A from Houston. Really trying to do the right thing ...

It would be nice of this were wrapped together with the Classical 91.7 app as one Houston Public Media app

Icon stays at top of home screen after closing the app unless the app's data is cleared in Settings.

S70%
by S####:

Both apps (news & classical) just buffer...no sound. In past, app worked great. Love KUHF. Have sent money to you guys for many years. What's going on?

S70%
by S####:

Freezes and shuts down. Wish it worked properly, especially since I'm a supporter of the station.

S70%
by S####:

Wish more programs were available 'on demand' but they probably don't own rights. Audio could be better - even on fast connections

S70%
by S####:

I've never actually been able to listen as it is always buffering

S70%
by S####:

NPR-"nuff said"

M70%
by M####:

They need more development for this app. It constantly buffers. Do better.

M70%
by M####:

STOP BUFFERING!

D70%
by D####:

It is constantly in "Buffering" mode. Guess I'll stick with iHeart and Slacker

M70%
by M####:

The app cuts out regularly. I get an error that says "Application could not be loaded" or something, and I have to restart it. Also, what's up with portrait-only mode? It's not like there's a lot to display.

R70%
by R####:

Works better since the last update.

G70%
by G####:

constantly force closes and cuts off.

Y70%
by Y####:

My app worked for about six months....about one month ago....it just stopped. .. I have called the station....sent out Three emails.....Nothing.. I am so disappointed. .. And you lost not only my regard.......but my financial support.

N70%
by N####:

Constantly disconnects. Too bad - good channel. Poor app

N70%
by N####:

Why can I not get this on my tablet? Only my phone....same google play, right? But I love this. Perfect. Just want to hear KUHF.

D70%
by D####:

I was greeted with an error message when trying to start the app for the first time. I restarted the phone and the app started up fine. I am giving this app 4 stars for what it can do which is fairly basic: - Listen to KUHF through live streaming - Listen to past news stories from KUHF - Listen to the Bauer Business Report and Engines of our Ingenuity I would give it 5 stars if it could: - Download these stories onto the phone so they could be listen to offline, but hey, you can't have everything!
