Comments on WBUR for Android

★★★★★ Kate Schneider · Oct 9, 2021

Wishes every NPR station had an app this great!!! Live listening and easy access to episodes of any shows they play on the station

★★★★★ Rebecca Jockusch · Sep 23, 2023

Excellent NPR station. Very good app. I really appreciate being able to pause and rewind the radio station.

★★★★★ Ercan J. Bastug · Mar 26, 2025

Live news with great entertaining, diverse programs for all.

★★★★★ Jerolyn Benson · Mar 11, 2025

After my local public radio station messed up its scheduling, the BUR app allows me to continue to listen to my favorite programs at the times that I am able to listen to them.

★★☆☆☆ Lance Ryley · Feb 1, 2023

I was hoping the 2023 update would improve things but if anything they are worse. You can no longer mark favorite podcasts or sort them. Podcasts don't remember their place if you pause. They automatically repeat after the end. No response when providing feedback App is fine if all you want to do is steam bur, but otherwise its junk.

★★☆☆☆ Stewart Randall · Jan 6, 2023

Unlike every other Android app this one does not quit when you swipe up to close the app. App also stops randomly.

★★☆☆☆ m goodwin · Apr 17, 2020

If you want to be frustrated by an NPR app then this one is for you. Every time you open it you have to tell it NOT to go to sleep in a very short period of time. So don't plan on listening for very long.

★★☆☆☆ Charlie Parry · Jun 13, 2022

Live stream goes to pause every few minutes. Sometimes you have to turn airplane mode on then off to get it to start back up. Contact link doesn't work. Love the station, but the app kind of sucks.
