I've gotten annoyed by the app by it keeps stopping to get me to restart so that they can announce their sponsor "again" for the second time in less than 5 minutes.So, are I being impatient, or are a lot of people have this experience?

2nd Generation Listener! Earlier problem encountered in Feb '25 has been fixed & I've been able to enjoy WTOP again. I remember when my dad would listen to this radio station when I was a child over 50 yrs ago. Didn't realize after I became an adult that I would listen to this station myself but it is the most informative for news, weather, & traffic in the DMV area. I love that I can listen to WTOP on my radios, on my cell, online, on my Alexa, & even by calling a phone number! Thank you, WTOP!
