When will they fix the interruptions?

Listening to my local NPR station is a joy -- except when using the app. The interruptions for station promos are constant and interrupt the listening experience. Instead, I stream from the website in Safari. NPR, this problem has been going on for a year. It's time you fixed it.

News headlines are cut off. Impossible to browse.

Goodness gracious. Who designed this app?! The news headlines are all cut off in the current format (which appears to be tiles instead of a list). Incomplete news headlines are not conducive to figuring out which articles I want to read further. Seems like the most basic functionality of a news app was overlooked. Please consider offering news in a LIST format, with the entire headline visible. Off to go uninstall this thing....

App needs some work

I use the NPR News app on my iPad mostly to listen to my local NPR station or the top of hour news. I read the articles too once in a while and usually when I'm listening to the station in the background. There is no way to refresh the news items/stories on the screen. If it has not done its automatic refresh, clicking on an item can bring up a different story that has now replaced the story you clicked on in its current position. The links to the articles don't seem to work directly from the app. Other than that, I think it's a great app to get the summary of the stories on NPR or to listen to your local NPR station.

Simultaneously worthless and indispensable

Great for listening to hourly news updates, horrible at everything else. Don't expect the top stories to be from the day you're viewing the headlines, and don't expect those headlines to link to the stories they claim to represent. Do expect those hourly news headlines to play when you close the app without having bid them play. Also, do expect a heavier emphasis on hip-hop and hip-ster music and cultural coverage than broadcast NPR by about 2000 percent. Let's put it this way-if stories about a "Punky Brewster" themed hotel and a new "Vampire Weekend" tribute album were slated to run on the day that Trump launched a preemptive nuclear attack on Pyongyang, you won't have to Worry about the North Korea story ruining your day for a while.

Not working very well

Click on an article and it opens a different article. Bizarre...the app seems confused.

Love The App!!

The NPR News APP is my #1 source for news! I start my day off with NPR News and in the mornings I listen to member stations from all over the country. I proudly support my member station and the app also help in keeping me up to date on local stories from local member stations where family are. The app has a few streaming issues with the stations that I hope will be addressed in the next update.

AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
Security Framework

System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
