  1. [R6] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Great app for conservatives: Great app with all my favorite conservative podcasts and news
  2. [R15] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Quality Talk: Tucker always has interesting guests, asks thought provoking questions and in depth interviews. I highly recommend it for its intellectual content.
  3. [R25] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Great Aop: It’s refreshing to have so many conservative minds included in one app. There’s a nice mix of both free content and subscription based.
  4. [R26] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Traveling companion: When I am traveling, which is often, this is my go to app for news and information. No more do I have to search and hope that I can find a talk radio station. Kudos!
  5. [R1] Conservative Talk Radio 1/5 · US Gets stuck on commercials: Good design, and I know it’s free and there are commercials, but there is no excise for it getting stuck in commercial mode. Frequently. Some days certain hosts will just not come through even after rebooting the app 4 or 5 times. It will just play commercials for a half hour and block the show, while other stations will come thorough. Fix this.
  6. [R3] Conservative Talk Radio 1/5 · US Stinkers: Your commercials play over my shows
  7. [R5] Conservative Talk Radio 1/5 · US Works sporadically: Just started to not work.
  8. [R8] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US First time listener: As a recent retiree, I was looking for things to do in my spare time so I downloaded this app. First show I listen to was Tucker Carlson interviewing, Willie Robertson from duck dynasty. I thought I don’t know almost 2 hours long. Do I really want to listen to it but found that I couldn’t stop listening because it was such a good interview. I had no problems with the app. I wo
  9. [R7] Conservative Talk Radio 1/5 · US Podcast: Podcast get posted and then disappear.
  10. [R31] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Awesome app for conservatives: The Talk Radio is the best way to keep informed no matter where I am. I can always listen to the top conservative radio hosts any time of the day.
  11. [R41] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Great app: I am able to listen to talk shows I enjoy even if it’s not carried on a local radio station.
  12. [R57] BlazeTV 5/5 · US Perfect App!: Thanks for bringing BlazeTV programming to iPad users! Easy to use interface, access to 24/7 programming with one tap, and Picture-in-Picture!!! You are all amazing!
  13. [R24] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Truth to America love you, Dan: Amazing show it is a blessing to be able to hear the truth, uncensored and free to all hard-working Americans so thankful for this and the opportunity to strengthen and be informed through these broadcast that are brought to us for free. Stay strong America and always fight for freedom and what you believe in.💪
  14. [R64] BlazeTV 3/5 · US App is terrible: I paid $90 for a yearly subscription to this app. Luckily I got a $30 discount, but it is originally $120. All the top streaming services are around this same price. For the amount I pay the app is terrible. It doesn’t ever remember the last episode I watched in a series, when the video ends the app takes me to the previous episode instead of the next one? The app often gets stu
  15. [R67] BlazeTV 3/5 · US Good Content- AWFUL Streaming: I have been a subscriber for almost 4 years and live streaming is among the worst of any app out there. I wrote to customer support and they say it is my problem. Don’t spend your hard earned money until they fix their streaming. In this day and age there is no excuse for the excessive buffering this app offers. On the plus side, non-live shows are fine. And the app
  16. [R74] BlazeTV 1/5 · US Constantly Crashes and Logs Me Out Frequently: This app constantly crashes with the “playback unavailable” message while watching live and during replays. On top of that, it logs me out all the time. When I reached out to Blaze support, they were rude and eventually told me the problem is all on my end but gave no step on how to resolve the problem. As a supporter that goes back to GBTV days, I
  17. [R96] BlazeTV 5/5 · US Awesome: My call today was handled professionally & promptly, the BEST
  18. [R113] BlazeTV 4/5 · US Excellent Customer Service: My subscription renewed for another year today when I didn’t intend to renew. One phone call (reached a human) that from start to finish was little over a minute, and I get an email about my PayPal refund processing. The only reason I give 4/5 stars is no more Crowder. Still a great app with some great content though.
  19. [R77] BlazeTV 1/5 · US Save your feed: App constantly crashes and breaks. This morning it can’t go 10 minutes without “playback unavailable.” If not that, requires relogin after relogin. No benefit to subscription as you get all the commercials still. Content has increasingly added commercial content. Just watch on other media for free.
  20. [R98] BlazeTV 1/5 · US (: Although I like to watch Blaze TV Live on my Pluto app, and love the network itself and their staff and stories, I can not afford to pay $15 a month for the convenience of watching blaze TV Live on their app. There for Zero stars for making Blaze TV Live app out of reach for me.
  21. [R101] BlazeTV 1/5 · US Just Another Greedy Corporation: I cancelled my membership, because they just stoke fear and division, like most media outlets, but was charged another annual fee anyways. Wells Fargo refused to reverse the charge, so now I’ll do my best to prevent others from doing business with either company. Aside from a couple of shows, it was a waste of money. You can get the same, and better, entertainment e
  22. [R4] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US Tucker Carlson interviews: Tucker does the best job ever with interviews. He allows his guests to talk instead of trying to force an answer that he wants.
  23. [R18] Conservative Talk Radio 5/5 · US It’s good to hear honest entertainment and journalism: I listen to Tucker an Joe. I’m excited and inspired to listen to others, too. Mainstream, legacy media is dying. The funeral cannot be too soon. ZoeV
  24. [R65] BlazeTV 1/5 · US No background play😡😡: I love Glen and much of the content on blaze!! I bought a multi year subscription to help support blaze when they came out on IOS. My huge problem is I want to do other things while it continues to stream in a small window most other video service apps provide that but the blaze app just pauses as soon as you navigate to anything else 😡😡😡
  25. [R73] BlazeTV 3/5 · US Please fix: Unable to see frame within frame. In the past preferred this over other conservative platforms because it would play while I played my mindless game - listening at the same time. I can with YouTube and daily wire, but not blaze.
  26. [R78] BlazeTV 4/5 · US No audio streaming: Could be great…but the app times out constantly - YouTube is able to stream consistently- why can’t the Blaze. Why is there no way to simply stream the audio through the app? I can’t watch it - at work. But I’d like to be able to stream it - no option for that- why?
  27. [R105] BlazeTV 4/5 · US Why no download option: I travel a lot, and do not always have access to data or Wi-Fi. I wish there was an option to be able to download programs and watch off-line. Most streaming apps have that option now. You would still need the app to be able to watch the downloaded content. I was told once they were afraid of content being stolen. If someone wanted to steal content, they would. So that excu
