What users are saying

1. ☹️ Could you include in the next update the return of this function (allow offline listen capability for downloaded episodes)?It's fantastic I can listen to so much and so many of nprs wonderful podcasts.

2. I search function isn't so good, and it doesn't have my local station.Almost nailed it! Parts of the app, especially when listening to archived episodes may close unexpectedly.

3. I love this app and in the past versions I used to download my favorite podcasts to listen later so I could play them during flights or in areas with spotty reception.

4. There is a "listen to all" button on the playlist of segments, but it just plays random other shows.

5. Episodes don't get cleared once you listen to them, sorting ability is almost nothing, there isn't a fast forward by 15 seconds button, and the list goes on.

6. One of the most useful features for frequent travelers just disappeared in a recent update, without notice or explanation (just found a bogus "We're merging the apps" excuse deep within layers of FAQs on the help pages).

7. Unless the podcasts are made available on user preferred player (like all other podcasts), I will likely avoid NPR just to avoid all the frustration.

8. Airline travel, car travel in large sections of the world off-limts nowReally disappointed that the my playlist feature came along & deleted all of the episodes I had previously saved.

9. It stinks when services become less useful as they become flashier.Love the podcasts but this app is lacking in so many basic features.

10. This is particularly frustrating & unsafe when I'm driving & now I have to manually find something to listen toPodcast player is terrible.

11. It stop playing randomly, jumps to random podcast not on play list and cannot be downloaded.
