This American Life App Reviews

Hasnt worked well since the redesign & gets worse all the time. I love the show, but the app sucks.

Really great content

Great stories, really well told

Best damn app out there yall!!! Go Ira!!!!

App does not allow to delete episodes from offline listening list once 5 episode limit is reached. Only way to *empty* offline list is to deinstall entire app. Very frustrating and unnecessary bug and would love to see it fixed in next version.

This new version of the app doesnt load all the shows and the sidebar index of years doesnt work. Hard to find shows I havent heard. Also, I really wish the new version had saved my settings re fave & heard shows. Still love This Am Life content though.

It works. I use it. Kthxbye.

TAL content deserves better.

Love the show, but find the app tricky. Cant seem to delete downloaded episodes and the app crashes all the time.

LOVE the show.. but i cannot delete downloaded/offline episodes.. so i can’t download new ones… please fix..

This App used to work well, but inexplicably seems to get worse with every update. Now I am having problems with downloading, playing and just seeing all of the episodes. These are the only 3 things I need this app to do! Very disappointing.

Slowly making my way through all 500 episodes as I run. So I love the new feature of downloading episodes.

So many glitches, I want to cry! The latest? It wiped the info about which episodes Id heard, so now I have no idea where to start!

Like other reviewers have already said, the app is buggy. Often wont let you play shows or listen again to ones youve heard already. A bit frustrating. But the show is amazing & never fails to disappoint! Well worth the cost of the app to have access to every show.

One of my favourites; I can listen to Ira talk for hours while I work.

Love the show and the app works perfectly. Its great being able to download five shows to listen to when I dont have access to Internet.

One of my favorite shows. Never gets old. Love it.

So after update the offline episodes are still listed as downloaded but theyre not (cant play them). Trying to delete them actually tries to re-download and errors out because it thinks five episodes are already downloaded. What a way to smear TALs name through the mud with an embarrassing user experience and app.

Please fix the app. I download update after update and nothing fixes it. Im sure youre losing listeners with this terrible experience.

Another update that stops the APP from working. The only way to make this piece of CRAP work is to delete this useless APP and download it again! All records gone. What a waste of time!
