8 of 25I've used this app for years every morning as I commute on a train. Ever since the January 2016 update, the thing plays the same commercial over and over again. I hate the phrase "you're on the move and on the go....." I tried to connect for over 20 minutes this morning at 6:50am with no luck getting past the commercial.
This app is absolute trash
I LOVE KGO and wouldn’t mind even the obnoxious amount of ads if only the ad sales department would get just a little creative and stop LOOPING them 3 to maybe 6 times in a row! I find myself pulling the head set down or just jumping stations all together it’s gotten so bad! Whatever happened to variety is the spice of life or have the personnel cutbacks been so drastic from KGO’s hay day that automatons are programming the ads? It’s a sad state of affairs if so and if not, it sure seems like it by all appearances.
I love the station but this app is possibly the worst app I've ever had I start it up it crashes which wouldn't be too bad if I wasn't forced to listen to these 30 second adds when the app starts up. Get it together kgo
The new update on the app requires you to sign up or log in using Facebook account. But that’s not the worst part. I’m using the app on my iPad, so every time I close the app to use another app (mail, iMessage, etc.) or if my iPad sleeps, the app pauses. It’s like they force you to have the app open and only have it open the whole time while listening to the radio program. This is a pain in the butt.
I love talk radio especially KGO810, but because I am a pet sitter I'm often in and out of the car. This app lets me keep up with the convo (even if on a delay) between listening while driving then just turn on app and continue while I'm on my walks with the pups away from the radio. Also love that I can use all my other apps or even close my phone so I use less battery while the app keeps playing. In fact Writing this review while I listen ;) very few if ever any issues *knock on wood*
Way too many ads as the others have correctly pointed out. In addition, however, the app works poorly. Crashes constantly which makes for a frustrating listening experience. And every time you relaunch it you have to endure 15 to 30 seconds of repetitive ads before resuming listening to the program.<br/><br/>And ever since KGO hired the highly annoying & over-the-top Mark Thompson it’s not worth the trouble. Pat Thurston? Chip Franklin? Give me a break.<br/><br/>A&G are worth listening to, but the app makes it a frustrating challenge. Better to listen on an old-fashioned radio.
All you hear are commercials the same ones over and over again.
