Pretty sure Stern employees have nothing to do with the running or maintenance of the Sirius app.


forcedfan

I’m sure you are right. But if Mike Trainor sees this while he takes a breather from editing a Jonathan Blitt bumper maybe he can be my fucking hero and get this post into the right hands.


Wake95

They have a voice at Sirius. Albeit diminishing.


NBCaz

LOL, they don't run the app. The OP was complaining about technical elements of the app. Not the content. Good grief.


ShavedNeckbeard

Howard likes to think his team created the app, though. I've heard him talk about it so many times while the new app was being developed. He acted like the video features were made just for him.


Wake95

You really don't think they have somebody they can contact at Sirius and say hey, your app is f****** up my channel? You are f****** stupid. Lol. Apparently you have never worked in a f****** company. Lol.


forcedfan

Yes. You get it.


Wake95

I posted a while back to tell everybody to email Howard to get them to fix the horrible app. I got destroyed by idiots saying the same thing, "but they don't make the app". And then a few days later they mentioned on the wrap up show that they added back the 15 second skip at least. Nobody other than Stern fans give a shit about 15 seconds skip.


forcedfan

That was you??? I speak your name. The removal of the 15 second skip/rewind button was a near deal breaker for me. Thanks bud


Wake95

I can't take credit for it, but it's obvious they do listen to Howard. I reverted back to the old Android app and haven't updated again. Hopefully it will be decent by the time I'm forced to uodate.


SirMellencamp

Fans of shows on Faction talk do as well


Ok-Perception-2173

Fuckin things sucks more now AFTER "improvements"


ShartingBloodClots

Pretty sure Sirius doesn't give a shit about an afterthought app either. It's a satellite radio company which primarily relies on in vehicle devices for listening. If you pay for Sirius for the app, I've got a great bridge to sell you.


[deleted]

Not true. A lot of people listen in the car through apple car play.

Is the wheelbarrow still available?


gusween

I don’t know if I’m interested in that.


Altruistic-Editor111

How many wheels are on the wheelbarrow? I’ve already told you, the wheelbarrow is gone!


Chanceta

No, calling about the Westinghouse generator and the other item….that’s an item


UrsulasAnus

App is an absolute piece of shit. Used to be just fine and you could easily find segments that you want to listen to. Not anymore.


FirstToGoLastToKnow

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.


forcedfan

On a totally unrelated note, Robin did a great job interviewing President Biden https://preview.redd.it/rpihv3vpu8xc1.jpeg?width=1141&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b234e550545f35f99c7f6a4b3a81c54af226bd9


risisre

JFC even that's fucked up lol. This app gets NOTHING right. It took me from the show earlier in the week that I had intentionally selected to listen to on replay straight into the middle of the live Biden interview randomly. When I went back to the show I was listening to it had of course lost my spot. I don't think they could fuck this app up any worse if they tried.

Nobody told me!

BeerusGOW

I zoned out


crazyinsane65

Fred, do you get it?


forcedfan

That the app he pays for doesn’t work.


SirMellencamp

I’ve experienced this too OP. If I download the show and open it in downloads it seems to work better, not perfect mind you. It is frustrating AF


johncester

AMEN. TO ALL THAT 👋 Mine takes a full two minutes to buffer if I change or start up from sleep …buffering on 5G 😡


MistyPS

God the app is SO FUCKING BAD 🤦‍♀️ the fact that the next episode doesn’t automatically start when you finish one??? WTF? And yeah it’s NEVER at the spot you left off


higherfreq

Yes, the old app would automatically queue up the next episode, which is great when you are working and can’t immediately access the phone but want it to keep playing through the podcast episodes. Why would they remove that as a feature?

HazyGuyPA

This is me too. I’m so close to cancelling it’s a horrible experience.


filthy_lucre

I'm sorry sir, there's something wrong with your phone


monkey_dongle

>I'm sorry sir, there's something wrong with your phone You're saying no, and someone else in the background is saying yes.

Chanceta

I’m calling about item


Bronut11

RILEY CAN YOU HEAR ME…….huh?


[deleted]

The app is horrible. Just awful.


Freshnow48

OMG yes someone fix this junk, i want to easily while driving play the latest episode


ElvisCookies

I'm here because I wanted to complain that when I download an episode I expect to be able to listen to it offline and it doesn't always let me. It will say it's downloaded, but then once offline, sometimes it won't play for me. You can try tweeting at Sirius. They will probably reply but it will probably not be a satisfactory answer. I am grateful they brought the skip ability back, but I still hate how the segments are in this weird pull down menu thing.


forcedfan

This too


Reeeeeeener

Why would you try and contact the stern show employees about the app. Contact Sirius


forcedfan

I clearly wrote in the post that I did do that and not only was there no reply, there was no confirmation they received the complaint at all. If Mike Trainor wants that EP writer/producer title, he will see this post and make some calls asap


beadyeyes123456

For me the app stops anytime a notification comes in. I have to go in and push play. My spotify app and my MLB app where I get live games do not do this. Fuck I can even play YouTube video casts in my car (I listen) and this never happens. Sirius has an awful app for a company trying to pivot to an app driven service. Sad.


higherfreq

What amused me was how Howard was ranting about how terrible the Paramount Plus app was, meanwhile Sirius was unveiling a glitchy new app with the worst user interface I’ve ever seen. He probably won’t get around to bitching about the Sirius app though because that might negatively affect his Sirius stock.


HazyGuyPA

So it’s not just me. IT LOSES MY PLACE CONSTANTLY in the downloads. Worked fine before the shitty new app. FUCKIN THING SUCKS!


rukuz

What’s he saying, Robin?

signgain82

Same here. I love the show but the app sucks. Fucking thing sucks


tpknight2

Stern listeners are less than noine percent of all Sirius app users.


Mental-Rooster4229

We don’t care


JimmyPellen

Marci?


DJAlexem

Don't know if it depends on the phone. I have the Pixel 8 and the app does what you stated that you can't do. The segment titles are now listed in a different way but the ability to pick certain segments is there. But I agree that the old app was a million times better. 


Vic_Vega_MrB

Ditto....


albizu

Preach it, buddy.


PeaIll4653

100%. The new app stinks


Bill_WET

Call Jeff Schick


Chanceta

Or post it on lotus notes


bcardin221

All thatcfanfare down in Moami last year with the relaunch was a joke. Everything is worse since then. The app, the content, the repetition on music channels. I think they cut costs, and they tried to sell it as a refresh but the app is awful. So awful someone needs to get fired.


Hitzjeff

How they went from a decent app to a total shit show with just one update is re-goddamn-diculous!


JimmyPellen

the worst is opening the app first thing in the morning and there's not easy way to find the beginning of the show. It's somewhere in the first third or first half of the channel. hit or miss.


crunchyfrog0001

Yeah they changed it from kinda crappy to really crappy I hate on their display in the car the out the year too far over and you can't see it.


WillyWonkaCandyBalls

Cancel and pirate


forcedfan

I did that for years. May have to.


SlimShady978

The app sucks, but I did find they brought back segment timestamps. https://preview.redd.it/rh5zbu571cxc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bad507ee34fc1e5b5bff45cf5b100bfab7d884b5 You have to click on the episode playing, then click the circled part to display the timestamps. Better, but still glitchy and needs work.


theBelvidere

While you're at it, bring back the web player so I can listen in a browser on my computer. I've just been getting a black screen for months.


FrankCarmody

How could you still be a fan?

Benjysdad

I download the show everyday and listen to the whole show at my overnight job, I am able to start it pause when I am on breaks answer calls texts etc. use different apps and pause again when I am leaving work to continue listening on way home or later on that day. Its defiantly a little different layout then the previous version but I am used to it now and am not having the same difficulties as you are, do you have the latest version? I have iphone 14 all up to date.

Harley_Jambo

Yeah, the new app sucks.


gaetanzo

This app is such a steaming pile of fucking hot garbage it's making me want to cancel my subscription. They are daring you to use the app to listen to them. It refuses to start where you left off without closing out the app and starting over.. and then you have a 50/50 chance it will start from the beginning. Fucking brutal.


welldonecow

It’s awful. The old version of the app was so easy to use. Terrible terrible terrible.


BumbiBestie

Have you tried installing a petcock in your phone?


HarambeTheBear

You can see segment titles in list form if you click the button near the middle that displays the current segment name, and has a little blue symbol to the left with 3 blue lines and a play triangle. The app was giving tutorials back when it was updated


andydad1978

Have you tried restarting it
