I love the app and on demand access, particularly to local news and programming. One thing I've noticed though is that if I let my screen go dark the streaming tends to stop until I open the screen again. Other than that it's a good app and I highly recommend it.

I love WILL. The app works fine, but is missing some of the features that other NPR station apps have, such as the ability to pause a stream and come back to it later, and a sleep timer.

Whenever my phone goes into screen saving mode the broadcast stops. It's very annoying to have to keep touching my screen just to continue hearing the show.
