PRX Remix for Android
We handpick the best short works from shows like The Moth, 99% Invisible, and Snap Judgment, from independent producers on PRX.org, and from podcasters everywhere. Then we mix it up for you in a never-ending stream. Lots of what’s on PRX Remix isn’t aired anywhere else.
This is not another podcasting app. PRX Remix is, quite simply, the greatest radio station of all time. This app lets you listen closely.
Preload up to an hour of audio for offline listening
Lots of new stories added each week
Share stories with anyone - they don’t need the app to listen
You can also tune in to PRX Remix on XM 123 and http://prx.mx. Want it on your local public radio station? Ask them to air it.
Tweet @prx to suggest great audio stories to our editorial team.
PRX Remix was developed with love by PRX, and supported by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
I love the content BUT. Crash, Crash, Crash, Crash, Crash. Stops playing when it goes to back ground. Streaming notice near top of app never goes away. I'd pay a buck or two for it if it worked. Nov 1st '16 I just got a new phone with marshmallow. Now it crashes as soon as I press play. So sad.
Update +2 stars, 1/18/16: i can now open the app after repeated opens (this after almost a year of it being completely useless. ) have been reporting this forcing close issue for months but nothing has been done to fix it, so my 5 star rating is now a 1 and what used to be my favorite app is now completely useless
When I'm up late at night and just want to be told stories- they are just one click away with this handy app. Also, not so long that I have to commit to an hour of focus. Perfect nightcap.
Never boring and learns something new everyday! I would give it 5 starts but a few enhancements are needed. 1.) It crashes often in Android and a total restart is needed to get it to work again. 2.) Can not bookmark where you are in a story and close the app. 3.) If you miss a story by clicking on the next story you can not go back and listen to it. --But all in all one of my favorite apps.
Crashelicous. I would uninstall and forget about it, but the content sounds so good. That is "sounds" as in I want to hear it. Not sounds as in I have heard it. I have never gotten more than 30 seconds listening.
Bugs on 4.4.2: when attempting to play old stories the app will skip to the newest story instead. Will crash irregularly when trying to open the settings menu.
Doesn't download, only streams, contrary to what it states. Only way I can get multiple episodes to show is to hit play and forward. Crashes often. Using galaxy note 3. Wish it worked better.
Almost all the stories are interesting and if one is not, it's easy to just skip to the next. I enjoy the randomness and I can spend more time working and less time searching through the back catalogs of podcasts for ones I haven't heard
I was so excited to down load the app since I listen to the XM station everyday in my car, but the app continues to crash. Not sure what is up, but just want to listen
Straightforward app with great public radio content. Was crashing for a few weeks but that has resolved itself.
The app doesn't show me all available content, I cannot choose which one to pre download. It doesn't show me which one I have already listened or progress.
Had some dropping issues early on but that seems resolved. Content wise there's none better.
Great and simple app! My only complaint is that the app crashes often. The sound will continue though which is why I'm pleased.
Im not sure what changed. It definatly wasnt an update of any kund but this app now crashes each time it should be starting. Im surebi could uninstall and reinstall the app bit that will cause me to loose all the stories i heard and want to go to again. And another thing, whu cant o bookmark favorite stories? You guys almost have app Gold.
The app constantly shuts down as soon as I start it. It doesn't download stories in the background like its supposed it. I have tried reinstalling, but that hasn't fixed the issue. Using a 2013 moto x. -update I tried this again on the latest moto x pure edition 2015, and I'm still finding the app is unstable and doesn't download stories in the background.
This app is brilliant. Love the concept, love the content. Hate the way it crashes, constantly. Had it on my Huawei phone for ages and it seems to get more unstable with each update, just installed on my Samsung Note 10.1 and can't even get passed the welcome track. Let me in PRX! Why won't you let me in?!

I wish they would update the user experience to look better with lollipop but I don't spend too much time looking at the interface so I doesn't really impact me much
I listen to prx every day and I love it, but there must have been a recent update because the stream will now close automatically after I open it. Please fix this. HTC One M8
It's all I listen to in the car on sat radio. Now I can listen to it on my phone.
My only request would be for a favorites list that could be managed from within the app, the option to share by intents is nice, but sometimes clunky when all you want is to note the name of the podcast for later.
Updated: Not crashing now. Great idea and great content. Lose one star cause I can't seem to refresh past July. Better than before when it wouldn't refresh at all. Old review: Love the idea of this app, but unfortunately it just crashes over and over again.
Constant force stops. I cant share a specific segment. Please fix those and ill give this app more stars.

This app is, in short, not fun to work with. The wifi pre-download doesn't actually download anything, and frequent crashes make this app basically unusable. While I'd love to listen to public radio all mashed up into a cool blend, I have a radio that also plays some of these same programs and doesn't crash. Sadly uninstalling.
Love the stories, but it has stopped working a few times and had to redownload it. Then I have to skip through all the stories I've already heard
Great ap. Nonstop intellectual stimulation. I spend hours here at home and in the office when there intense desk work PRX keeps me focused and super productive.
Love the app and the shows but it keeps crashing and shutting down. Please please fix this....I need this app!!! Give ya 5 stars once it stops crashing. Look forward to a fix very soon. Thanks prx app team. Oh yeah im on a lg l90
Constantly crashes, wish it worked cause it would be awesome to be able to listen to it.
Hooks me on more programs! ...But it keeps crashing since i had to reinstall after a phone melt down...reinstall fixed it! Love this app.
If you enjoy public radio &/or getting some perspective, you will enjoy this app no doubt.
It's all I listen to in the car on sat radio. Now I can listen to it on my phone.
Easy to figure out, tons of content, always have something interesting to listen to. Highly recommended!
I hate burning bandwidth but I can't find a way to make it shut off on its own.

Doesn't show time and won't allow you to skip ahead. Sometimes starts playing multiple stories at the same time....
Love the content, dislike the crashes.
Why does it take me to the subway scene every time I open the app? There is also no option to say "don't show again" for the message about downloading stories over WiFi. When the playback works, its awesome. However, lately it's been skipping a number of stories at a time, then it forces close

I absolutely love this, I listen to it whenever I don't have an audio book on the go. I think the design could do with a bit more work but my biggest problem with it is that it crashes all the time even after numerous updates. Would definitely give it 5 stars based solely on content.
