A very small update to remove our lowest streaming option. We are getting ready for bigger and better things, and it was just in the way. Also fixed a navigation issue where the "back" arrow gets lost in the Streaming Archive.
And now for something completely different. Why did the pianist keep banging their head against the keys? They were playing by ear! I'll see myself out.

Oneiricflux,
Love KEXP, sometimes playing archived shows is a struggle
I’m newer to the KEXP app/community and truly love the variety of shows available. I listen pretty much daily, and I’ve found I often need to go to the KEXP website to successfully play certain archived shows that don’t play at all on the app. I’ve tried restarting my phone and the app but often am unable to hear any music when playing some archived shows (from my phone directly or through a Bluetooth speaker that I thought might be the issue) or jumping a bit ahead in the playlist. I also make sure to go to the archived show directly versus playing the live set and switching to an archived show (which works occasionally). Won’t stop me from enjoying KEXP but would love to see more refining of the playback of archived shows if possible! 🙏🏽 Thanks!
Charlesdan,
Please start over
This is still a pretty not-so-great app. Picking shows is weird. Should just be able to pick the show and move on, like SoundCloud. Jumping to a specific time is just odd since the easier thing to use is a timeline with a playhead, like most music players. Even on WiFi the stream being interrupted by changing g the time seems to take forever. You need to wait for the app catch up and then play music before you decide to jump out of the app to use another app. If you jump out, the app freezes.
The old version from way back with fake pre-ios6 buttons was very very very bad. This version, as it was with the old version with “buttons”, functions on a simple stream. The app is deeply flawed and functions in as much as it would be a nice supplement to having a radio. It still seems like it’s a better idea to just make this app only play a live stream, and then make sure it can still play the stream if you open a different app at the same time.
This is still a very good radio station but you would be better off trying not to do anything other than program great music and then play it live.

Great music, minor improvements for app
KEXP is the greatest radio on the planet! I love finding new music on this station and really feel a sense of connection with the DJs.
My main gripe with the app is that there is no easy way to sort favorite songs by date. For example, if I heard a song and wanted to show it to a friend later, sorting by date would make it really easy. Instead I end up forgetting. My favorites list has become a black hole of great songs, which is difficult to navigate when I'm trying to remember a song I heard last week. Sorting by date would dramatically improve this feature of the app, in my opinion.
Otherwise it's great! Can't wait to listen to more music :) thanks for all of your hard work!

Existential Punk,
Love the music, but app needs a little TLC!
Found this awesome station while visiting friends in Seattle. Grateful I can listen to archived shows since I’m not awake for one of them. This app needs a little TLC though! I hate when apps don’t remain where I last was when I exit them. I get into a particular show driving short distances and when I return, the app had taken me back to the current show. I then have no idea where I last was, so it is difficult to find where I was because I have no idea how far time-wise I was into a show. There should be an option where the app doesn’t revert to the main show. PLEASE fix this issue!
JoshuaBandy,
Had to uninstall — Significant battery drain
Having moved away from Seattle, I’m especially appreciative that a KEXP app exists. I love the opportunity to listen live, favorite songs, and revisit shows in the archive.
Unfortunately, I’ve recently had to uninstall the app. Initially, there were some minor hiccups with archive streams, like jumping back a few seconds in time, or playlist time not reflecting the pause state, but those weren’t a huge deal. Even losing all your saved favorites isn’t a huge deal, given the ability to email them to yourself periodically.
More recently though, I noticed my iPhone battery draining rapidly. According to the phone’s battery stats, the KEXP app was using a 60% share of all apps, and almost entirely while in the background (not actively on-screen). Without the ability to disable the background refresh of the app itself, I wasn’t left with much of a choice.
I’m hopeful this is something that can be addressed, because I really do enjoy the app. I’ve found other ways to stream KEXP live from my phone, but obviously none that allow for the real benefits like archive streaming.

Ak_intl,
Archived shows need work
Huge fan of KEXP and I have been an Amplifier for many years. The app is overall great, but there are a few small improvements that could be made.
(1) you can't skip ahead on archived shows. Well you can, but only in 5 minute increments expressed as the local time of broadcast. Local time is irrelevant to the user. It would make more sense to skip ahead in 30 sec increments (see the KCRW app). Even better would be the ability to skip ahead to a specific song. (
2) if you close the app while listening to an archived show, you lose your place. Say I'm driving somewhere listening to the most recent Overnight Afrobeats but I don't finish the episode. When I'm driving home, I have to guess what time of the broadcast I left off at, in local time. This doesn't make sense from a user's perspective.
(3) while streaming, the identification recording ("... an affiliate of the university of Washington...") will come on at random times, even during songs.

Jey Parks,
Favorites
I'm a big fan of this app and so grateful I can stream KEXP on the go. I've noticed a decent "bug" in the app regarding favorites, since updating two updates ago. I favor a song I hear, but when returning to favorite tab to look up the song I notice it's not there. Yet when the song is played again, it shows I have favorited said song. Besides streaming KEXP on the go, being able to collect/catalog the songs I love and want to remember is a big reason I use this app. Could you peeps take a look into this? If you need any screenshots or my info with the problem I am having, email me at: jeybirdsmusic at gmail dot com. Cheers!
Boudrodog,
KEXP rules; app needs help
I've been a devote KEXP listener and contributor for the past 15 years. It is hands down the best radio station in the US (universe?). The website and app have potential, but are frequently buggy, especially the show archives. The app behaves inconsistently across my iPhone and iPad and even my wife's iPhone. Why does the app play from different (and wrong) time stamps when I try on multiple devices to play the same archived show (Seek & Destroy 🤘🏽)? The live stream generally works great though, except the artist info won't load on my wife's phone.
Thanks, KEXP, for being awesome IRL -- where it matters. Please help out your digital cyber app though. Give your robot army a fighting chance in the matrix.

rcniman,
Playing catch up. Please keep going...
Woohoo! They’re up to 3 stars! The fact that I’m so excited about this getting up to 3-star land reflects just how horrible this app has been over the last few years.
With the amount of money that listeners have pledged to KEXP over the years and how much of our collective listening is done online, it is ridiculous how much they have neglected the app.
The app SHOULD be a portal to access all of their archived live shows and all their videos as well. But I can dream...
I’d settle for this working in landscape on the iPad so I don’t have to turn myself sideways to choose a show. Seriously, just make this not look ugly and I’d bump it to a four star review. That is where the bar is set...
And dare I wish for CarPlay compatibility?
As usual, I’d be willing to throw a nice pledge your way once you show some commitment to adding to the app. Sarcasm here aside, I’m heartened that the app actually works and seems to be getting much needed attention. Please, please, please keep it up!

Fitguy111,
please please get rid of annoying station ad
This station is one of the best. The app has some issues. The ad that plays when the stream starts sometimes goes on and on, basically letting me know I just started the stream that I just started. Any network interruptions will start the process all over again. The djs are great at station id, so that often is heard just after the streaming station id. That song playing when you open the app may be done by the time the stream ad ends, which is a great time for another station ad, right?
