Comments on NPR for Android

★★★★★ I know when I listen to NPR I'm getting the facts each and every day. I always look forward to listening and learning about various national and world topics during my morning workout. Each story is crafted and delivered by expert journalists.
★★★★★ NPR is the best place to get local, national, and international news, with podcasts like Pop Culture Happy Hour for some joyful breaks.
★★★★★ The very best source for accurate, factual, up to date, in depth/detailed, wide-ranging News, and presented in ways that everyday folks can understand implications. Though there are other organizations that provide similar service, NPR does it FREE, is available U.S. wide! Many programs to entertain, inform/educate, and give different perspectives with. Covers U.S., regional, and International events. My news source for the last 20 years. An American national resource and national treasure!
★★☆☆☆ Update: The app launches on some random program despite clearing the cache, force stop and relaunch): As many reviewers have reported, the app launches on its own on Android phones whenever the phone exits Bluetooth mode. I've had to uninstall the app multiple times for this reason. I can't have NPR start playing out of the blue during meetings! This has been going on for at least 2 years. I don't understand why the developers are not addressing this major issue.
★★☆☆☆ Couldn't find the NPR/Local news hour update as of today. It was always on the home page. Uninstalled.
★★☆☆☆ I love NPR. However, I like to listen live and usually use another app, I tried using this app, but it uses more battery. The news listening is great but for live I will have to stick to the other app till these gets addressed.
★★☆☆☆ Playlist doesn't allow me to play downloaded podcasts without being connected to Internet. Absolute fail
