Recurring themes

Podcast Access negative
Many users report that recent updates have either removed podcast functionality entirely or made it very difficult to access, with content often missing, incomplete, or not updated in a timely manner. This contradicts the app's previous functionality and frustrates users who relied on it for specific shows.R21R41R49R56
Technical Issues negative
The app is plagued with various technical problems including frequent crashes, freezing, disconnections, and audio bugs that affect playback or interfere with other phone audio. Users often have to restart the app or their phone to resolve these issues.R5R9R11R20
Advertisements negative
Many users complain about an excessive number of commercials, which often play upon opening the app, frequently interrupt programming, or even play over the live show, diminishing the listening experience.R5R39R53R78
Content Quality positive
Despite technical issues, many users highly praise the quality and variety of the Spanish-language radio programming, specific DJs, and morning shows, often citing them as the primary reason they use the app.R1R3R4R6

Who it's for

This app is for individuals who primarily want to listen to live Spanish-language radio stations and popular DJs, especially those who enjoy specific morning shows like 'El Despelote' or 'Raúl Brindis' R3R6. It is NOT for users who rely on podcast access, expect a stable, bug-free experience, or dislike frequent and intrusive advertisements R21R56R102.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, focusing on technical issues and the removal of podcast features. While the lifetime rating is high, the recent sentiment indicates a significant decline in user satisfaction due to recent updates. The developer's notes mention "New Livestream Changes," which aligns with user reports of podcast issues and a shift towards live-only content, but does not address the numerous bugs or ad complaints.

  1. [R1] 5/5 · US Z: Excelente programación
  2. [R3] 5/5 · US Morning show: The morning show starts my day on the right note. I have the volume blasting listening to all the great songs. The topics that the guys bring up are all very interesting. Eddie one is very intellectual. Smoochie of course always the controversial one in the show but this duo complement each other.
  3. [R6] 5/5 · US El mejor programa RB: Tiene el mejor show Raúl Brindis y el mejor equipo con el por eso es el #1
  4. [R10] 5/5 · US salsa de la mejor: 🫡✊🏻✊🏽✊🏼✊🏾

  6. [R7] 5/5 · US 5 starssss: Dj Eddie one is a great DJ !! Smoochie is funny haha ! Great pair of host 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
  7. [R21] 2/5 · US Home of El Barrio: While the content is fantastic, you can't access the programs as a podcast. To catch your favorite radio show, you'll need to transport yourself back to the 1990s and tune in at the designated radio time.
  8. [R41] 1/5 · US 1: Los podcast de PR. Que son los que puedo escuchar los suben incompletos o no todos
  9. [R49] 5/5 · US Podcasts en audio y no en video: Yo siempre salía de trabajar por la noche y ponía a Molusco y los reyes de la punta y veía el programa completo.Pregunto,por qué ellos sí y ustedes no. Uno tiene que mamarce los anuncios y las canciones en los comerciales. Expliquén!!!
  10. [R56] 1/5 · US Cada update es peor: En uno de los últimos update, separaron el podcast en audio y audio&video. Qué desastre! Ahora cuando un locutor dice “vean esto” yo simplemente lo ignoro porque no voy a alternar entre los dos formatos. Y ahora, la aplicación no guarda que episodios he escuchado. Ajusten estos fallos.
  11. [R5] 1/5 · US Poor App: It doesn’t change stations without smashing. I have to close the app then open it again. Too much announcements when opening the app. Is a weak app.
  12. [R11] 1/5 · US No sirve: Son inconsistentes con su funcionamiento
  13. [R20] 1/5 · US Interrumpiciones: Constantemente se interrumpe el programa, puede estar a mitad de segmento y se deja de escuchar o empieza a salir la cancion de la nena “la musica tv”
  14. [R37] 1/5 · US Se frisa: Muy mala la app deben arreglarla se cae bastante
  15. [R39] 3/5 · US No comerciales al abrir la app: No me gusta que salgan comerciales al abrir la app, a veces quiero ver una noticia que está pasando y se pierden 10 segundos
  16. [R53] 1/5 · US Anuncio en la pantalla principal: El problema de ese anuncio es que no me permite cambiar la aplicación porque no escucho las otras aplicaciones tengo que cerrarlo y por esa razón no lo estoy casi usando
  17. [R78] 1/5 · US Does not work for me!: This app since day 1 once I open the app it always starts with the same add and it gets stuck playing the same add over and over or it goes black and sound goes off. I’ve tried every possibility to fix it, uninstalling the app, signing back in and disconnecting from internet…nothing fixes the problem
  18. [R26] 5/5 · US Hot: I have an iPhone 15 pro does anyone have a problem when your using the app the phone gets hot
  19. [R33] 3/5 · US Good but…: Yo estaba conectado a la aplicación La Música todo el día. Me encanta El Despelote, What’s Up y El Reguero. Desafortunadamente, desde que hice el update a IOS 26, no he podido usarla. Cada vez que abro el app, el celular se sobre calienta de tal manera que hasta para de cargar. A la misma vez consume la batería en poco tiempo. Ojalá y puedan arreglar este problema.
  20. [R9] 1/5 · US Audio Bug: I found a reproducible audio bug in v13.7.2, but the bug report form on the website also fails with ‘Something went wrong. Please try again.’” How can O report this?
  21. [R30] 4/5 · US falla: cada que uso esta app tengo que apagar el cell para que se reinicie por que siempre que la uso ya despues no se ven videos de FB y Tiktok.
  22. [R42] 3/5 · US Audio bug: When the app is launched it interferes with all audio from other apps on the phone, alarm won’t sound off, sound from IG reels die and others. I overslept because of it!
  23. [R74] 3/5 · US Pongan el Barrio 94 Fácil acceso: Necesita más orden en el área de los podcast, tengo q escucharlos alrevez de final al principio. No reacciona en CarPlay.

  25. [R130] 1/5 · US Apple CarPlay doesn’t work: Apple CarPlay doesn’t work, app crashes
  26. [R83] 3/5 · US Despelote y otros podcast: Aveces pasa una semana y el podcast nunca existió eso hace que uno tenga que cojerle cariño a otras emisoras hay que ser mucho más responsable para eso les pagan
  27. [R89] 2/5 · US No tienen los podcast al día: No están subiendo los programas a la sección de podcast siempre subían el mismo día y ahora no es un atraso
  28. [R98] 1/5 · US Music: Way to many commercial’s
  29. [R102] 1/5 · US TOO MANY COMMERCIALS: Too many commercials and so frequently. Every single time you open the app. Super annoying.
