I love the station, but the app plays for 5 minutes and then stops. I have to hit play every 5 minutes. Song titles and artist do no display via Bluetooth. I have been using TuneIn instead and it works fine on my Galaxy S7 with Nougat

Keeps randomly stopping after a couple of songs

I can't live without Radio BDC but since the last update, it's been streaming an Asian channel. Is this an April Fools joke? :(

Works well but there's some crazy volume problems. It goes up and down quite significantly.

I don't know sometimes, if it's the person or it is the device, but this app using my Evo lte has worked without a hiccup. Glad to see Adam 12 still here. What a streak of corporate greed and bad timing he's had to endure.

Great to be able to listen to all day at work. However the app is a little buggy with stream drops, app crashes, and an inability share on FB (the link is there but it doesn't do anything but launch FB). I'm sure this will all get fixed in time. Good luck guys - you're off to a great start!

Great April Fools Day Joke now switch it back. Wake up with Henry Santoro mornings with the news and slide into your day with Julie Cramer bringing all the cool beats

Sad that boston got rid of all of its alternative stations and replaced them with the mainstream cookie cutter Justin beiber kiss 108 crap. Thank god for this app!

app still drops for no apparent reason from time to time.. my only complaint is that it took 4 months to fix

I have tried several times to reinstall but app does not work on Droid RAZR. Please fix! Looking forward to the next great Boston station.

by D####:

Please Help. This app doesn't work when I try to run it. I've tried emailing the developer, also I've tried reloading it approximately 20 times. The app will download, but when I try and run it and press play, it just says "loading radio" and never actually plays any music. I'm getting very frustrated. Does anyone know any solutions?

D70%
by D####:

I love the song selection and am looking forward to the launch of the station on Monday. The app seems to function well, but the interface is terrible. The bottom quarter of my screen is black, there's no icon in the notification bar when the app is playing, etc. These things will eventually be fixed, and then the app will be killer - I can't wait to hear the FNX DJs again and if the current playlist is any indication, I expect this will soon be one of my favorite apps, even with the interface issues.

I love you guys so much and am insanely happy you're back on air, but the quality of this stream is unbearable. There are thousands of sta's (both broadcast and net-only) available on places like TuneIn at near cd quality- why not you guys, either there or in this app??? Ridiculous.

by D####:

but this does not work for Droid Charge. Cuts out continuously, sometimes comes back on but mostly doesn't. Sad . . . I really want to listen to all you guys. So happy you are back on the air. Come on Boston Globe get the developer to get this fixed!! As an 'alternative' radio station you need to support us 'alternative' other/than iPhone users! Will check back in when I get tired of Pandora.

First off, so happy to listen to you guys again. Thank You! I can listen to radio again in my car. Sound quality needs a serious boost. The quality lacks significantly compared to web interface. A few suggestions: 1.) Notification bar. This is a quick fix. Just add an icon there so I can quickly access the app when in use. 2.) When I disconnect headphones, please pause (like Pandora) 3.) Why is the "Connecting to Radio" message so small? You've got tons of real estate. Use it!

So glad to have "fnx" back, but the audio quality is pretty bad. I'll still listen at work on my PC at a reasonable volume to block out the sound of my office mate's chewing.

Love the station, but the stream often jumps back about 3-5 seconds and continues playing. Screen doesn't turn off if app is active on the screen. No notification or lock screen controls. Hope it gets better, still the best station in Boston.

No longer works since the latest Android update. Hopefully they'll update the app soon.

Stream from their website and don't waste your time with the constant buffering of this app (and that's on a broadband connection). I have run this app on two different Android devices and its just as bad on both. The sad part is the app used to work...but then they fixed it.
