Doesn’t AirPlay anymore What happened to the control that let you choose an AirPlay target? Please put it back in so I can play the live stream on my HomePod speakers again!
Fabulous Station, Buggy App The performance of this app is inconsistent at best. It works better on some devices than others yet drops signal completely at random on even the most robust networks. It seems to perform better on a third party streaming service such as iHeart radio or TuneIn. Help solve this problem by becoming a member and help support keep Jazz alive.
Music great, app not KCSM is a wonderful and important station. It is not well served by this buggy and ad-plagued app.
Simply doesn’t work. I was looking forward to listening to jazz while traveling. I’m always hearing about listeners in far flung places- I’m in Florence, Italy and get nothing. Huge disappointment.
Best App I Have And Perfect For Jazz Heads After moving from the Bay after 20+ years, I still listened to KCSM Jazz 91.1, esp at work, to my favorite station with all my “friends” and familiar voices. I’ve been a listener for a good 15 years. Since I hold antipathy towards tech and apps, it never occurred to me until a few months ago to download it. The track list is impeccably organized and the track ID shows on your phone lockscreen (with the time) and on your car screen, effortlessly. It should also be noted that for a public radio station with low funds, that this is better than Soundcloud and Mixcloud combined is extra cool. Whoever has a complaint about this app is indubitably a jazz dilettante. *This is the first app review I’ve written because… I just don’t care about apps. I’ve never even written a yelp review.
works on Apple Silicon Mac but… An actual Mac app would offer a better user experience; e.g., (1) pause/mute/resume from Dock or menubar instead of having to open the app window to do so, (2) resize app window: most of the time I just want to listen, I don't care about what the app's window is showing and would prefer to reduce the space it takes when open. I realize this is an iPad app, with iPadOS' UI assumptions and limitations. Just asking for a little more effort to get a full-fledged Mac version
Greatest jazz station I have ever experienced! But the app is poorly designed and ad driven. The cue was 1:48 behind and very hard to read. Might want to talk to the folks at Radio Paradise about their app which has a simple design and info about the song, artist and album. Since the app is not very functional, I listen on my sonos most of the time. There is not song info from KCSM on that app either. That said, I still support the incredible folks that keep this amazing station going! That’s the most important part. Thank you!
Nonpareil Stop right here. All that is needed.
ADS The ads are relentless!

“Terrible app, plagued with ads This is among the worst apps I have ever used.”
“Kcsm I recently tried to use the "share" button for Facebook.”
“Aside from the bugs, it would great to have more features, like the track list that's available from their website.”
“And someone must think its OK to have piano black keys background which obscures the foreground making it uneven and impossible to read foreground information.”
“To summarize: New layout - UGLY New Features - MEH User Friendly Interface - KLUDGEY and LACKING Removed Useful Features - ACCOMPLISHED You need to get your …”
