fix this app!
MarineChaps
Fix this app! There are too many drops, and interruptions. And it conveniently happens when the broadcaster is providing a climatic moment, only to have him interrupted with a repeated double dipped commercial! Really?! To that end, the opportunity to hear what was going to be said is LOST! OH! BTW, it repeatedly happens. Enough said.
App doesn’t load.

App doesn’t load. Love the station. Hate the app. Last update over 1 year ago. Why?
Why the hour long Zerorez commercial?!
Otto Van Varenburg
I use this app because I’m outside of WMALs FM range. It used to be pretty decent until they started putting Larry’s hour long Zerorez commercial. Thank God for the mute button in the car until that passes. Not sure why there are any commercials before the player starts since we hear a direct relay of the station. Other times the player just stops because it looses the network connection but the phone didn’t lose its signal. Sometimes the commercials play but afterwards the player doesn’t start up. Please clean up this app or just make a basic player for people who want to listen to the streaming audio. No Twitter crap, no minute long commercials, etc... Thank you.
The initial commercial
Jgijvfyjcdt
The app works fine for me however it’s disappointing that we must listen to a commercial every time before the app is loaded. This is in addition to the many commercials played during the regular programming. I understand the regular commercials, but feel the extra commercial is totally annoying to the listener. It’s taking advantage since the user has no way to avoid listening to the initial commercial. Also, it’s the same commercial that is very long. Zero Rez will not be a company I ever use! At least make the commercial short.
No more Zero Res!!!

Randomly stops playing any time but the worst is RIGHT iN THE middle of a news or traffic update, and when you try to turn it back on it goes back to that STUPID Larry O’Conner Zero Res commercial that plays EVERY SINGLE TIME I TURN ON THE APP!! Enough already. Seriously WOULD NEVER use Zero Res JUST because of the advertising on WMAL!!!! Come on. Make your app just PLAY and don’t have it constantly spool or randomly quit. And when it restarts it should just go immediately back to the real- time broadcast. This is enough to make me stop listening to the app on my phone, which I normally do every morning. I’ll need to find my news elsewhere because I’ve had enough of Zero ReS!!!! Who cares about Larry’s stupid wine spill ???????
Update 6.6 requires login

Update requires a login to listen to the app. I don’t think a radio app should require an account or even worse use a Facebook link! First launch has several issues. Didn’t connect to cell network after download. Connecting over WiFi required the login to either the app or Facebook.
Horrendous tech support
Nickname choices
This app fails to load, fails to buffer, and fails to play when it decides it wants to do so. You send a message to tech support using their in-app contact with your device, OS, streaming strength (up & down), and a plethora of additional info - only to receive a message in 1-2 weeks asking you for all the info you already provided them. Specifically, this app refuses to work on most Saturdays & Sundays, and after 1800 EST on many weekdays. It just spins and spins. In short, it gets stuck on stupid leaving you the listener to just say F-it and toss your phone across the shop. HOWEVER, there is no other way I am aware of to listen to WMAL so I must endure an outright sh1tty app because I am not aware of any other. UPDATE - Dec 2018, you now have to join FakeBook, which I will never do, or sign up for a WMAL account (so they can jump on the spam my email with junk train) in order to use their app. I have deleted their app now and will see if I heart radio still has WMAL.
