    Lots of cool content, would be really awesome if I could listen to it for longer than 15 minutes without the app crashing.

    This app is a mess. It crashes all the time. It updates but I’ve not noticed a difference in functionality. Right now I can’t get a single thing to play. The developers need to do better honestly.
  • Raise the price yet make the app worse

    I love Wondery. It has a lot of great content and I like that there is so much informative and entertaining contents for kids. However the app has gotten exponentially worse since they raised the price. Episodes won’t load, it won’t connect or access the offline library. It is so disappointing.

    I love the content from Wondery but the app buffers constantly, regardless of if on WiFi or not. I’m tempted to cancel my subscription and just deal with the commercials from the podcast app from Apple.
  • Great Shows, Terrible App

    The shows are great but the app is horrible. I would be happy to look past the issues with UI/UX if the app was stable. I would even go so far as to rate it 4 stars if the app would stop crashing. The only way I have found to temporarily fix the crashing app is to delete it and reinstall it. The content is that good; I pay for a subscription, turn a blind eye to terrible choices made by a UX team while implementing end-user work arounds because the dev team can’t be bothered to read a stack trace and the software testers aren’t. —response to developer— The only way I can get the app to work is to delete it and then reinstall. The app works for a few days and then goes back to crashing every two minutes. Rinse, repeat. **update** After the recent update, the Wondery+ App is even worse. It causes massive battery drain and overheating. DEVS - use the Profiler tool provided in Xcode to identify the issue with your code.

    I love the content, great shows on Wondery plus. The low rating is because the app itself doesn’t work well. Takes forever to open, if I pause and start again, it changes the spot where it starts. So I’m constantly listening to the same parts over and over. Needs lots of annoying little bugs worked out.
  • Awful

    My podcasts always just stop after 5 mins. I’ll close the app and reopen it and it’s fine for 5 mins again then it shuts off. I pay for this and I can’t even use it.
  • Love the content, app is unusable

    Recently, the app has either gotten stuck indefinitely on the splash screen or crashed within seconds of launching. Restarting the phone doesn't help, so I had to delete and reinstall it, which also deleted the 2+ GB of downloads I did before a trip during which have very limited internet access. Even after reinstalling, the download feature is pointless, unless you only use it to save mobile data on the go. If you don't have an internet connection at the moment you launch the app, it hangs on the splash screen, which defeats the entire purpose of downloading episodes in advance.

    Crashes often even when podcast is already downloaded.
