jimmynunn Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Is it just me, or has anyone else had trouble with the Audacy app the last 3-4 days? It's not opening, so I deleted it and downloaded from the App Store, same results. I even went through Google with WGR, but that's not really working either. (I also use I Heart Radio for some Rochester stations, and it works just fine, always.) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 NP here bud. They did change two weeks ago formatting. It’s actually much better where you can open segments and by pass some of the adv.. you still have to listen to some, but it’s better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I opened it recently and it told me I had to make an account whereas before I was able to just open it and use it, presumably as a guest. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The app stinks in general. There will be times when I try to use the app and get stuck in a commercial loop where it never goes to the live show and just replays the same commercials over and over. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard bills fan Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The app sucks. Takes forever to load, commercial loop constantly and can never get it to rewind when live. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly what I have seen - I used to be able to open it - skip the sign in and get what I needed. Now it freezes at the log-in and won’t allow you to enter with out connecting either via an account or another app. I get it, but it sucks to have to log in for a crappy app - so I just deleted it. May try again later. Edited August 11, 2022 by Rochesterfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I also use I Heart Radio for some Rochester stations, and it works just fine, always.) This is preseason. They are practicing for failures during regular season. Historical note: My feet are in very bad shape and many days I'd listen to WGR game rather than going to bar to watch. Then WGR changed technology to improve experience and I constantly had problems until I could never listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The app is awful in general. If I dont have a connection when it loads, it gets all screwed up sometimes and wont reconnect, I have to reload it continuously it feels like. If I have a solid connection it stays. There are other weird things the app has done. They have changed the look and feel, but the crappy performance remains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know going to wgr550.com takes you to the audacy site but the player still works compared to the app(even on mobile).

Albanybillsbacker Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I have the exact same issue. It will not work no matter what I do. I did successfully reinstall it and it worked one time and then never again. I assume it has to do with logging in and it is trying to login but not succeeding but also not telling me that it’s not succeeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
