About this app

WRKF Public Radio App:

The WRKF Public Radio App allows you to listen to WRKF live, pause and rewind the live audio, and view the program schedule for all the WRKF streams at once! You can explore On Demand content, search for stories, bookmark a story for later, and wake up to WRKF with the alarm clock!

Live Streaming
• DVR-like controls (pause, rewind, and fast forward). You can pause the live stream to have a conversation and pick up right where you left off! Or rewind to catch a comment you just missed!
• Listen to live streams from WRKF even while traveling! Start the app and your favorite station starts playing – no clicks to start listening.
• Integrated program schedules for every station. You can display up to three of your favorites at a time or flick once to see the schedules for all of your favorite stations.
• One click stream switching – flip over to the program you noticed on another stream with a single click.

I had to remove the app. My antivirus software started identifying malware ad code in it. Unbiased, long form reports, as well as, news headlines every hour. Excellent. However, I recently lowered my rating due to the HD option being removed from the app and broken links to information on the WRKF website regarding the HD option. I don't know why HD is gone or when/if it will be back. I preferred the alternative programs in some time slots. An explanation on the website would be welcome.

Good app. Sometimes it has difficulty switching from WiFi to cell data.

I am very pleased with this WRKF app because at long last there is the (mostly)all talk HD1 as well as the 24 hour all classical music HD2. This is a long needed service and historically Classical music has been the heart and soul of Public Radio. In terms of donations and memberships, classical music was the the raison d'etre for public radio since the beginning. Ignore this part of your listening community at your fiscal peril.
