Does anyone know why my UAB app is not working? There are no updates and I am connected to wifi. It flashes open and then closes. Is it a problem with the server or my app?
TIA |

I haven't used it in a little while, but I just checked, and I'm having the same problem. It opens fully, but when I try to activate it pressing play, the app crashes.
The app needs a bit of an update, anyway. Maybe with a notification of what's playing on the main screen? |

What app are you using to listen to UAB? _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I was thinking the same thing! I uninstalled the app and then reinstalled it and now it is working fine. I would love to know what is playing and maybe even duration of the song and what's up next! |

If you have an Iphone/Ipod go to applications and search Utilidors, then download the Utilidors FREE app! |

Sorry for sounding ignorant to this, but we all are. This is an app that was created by someone who appreciates the site, but did not consult with us on it. Is is unauthorized and unofficial. If you are having issues, you would need to talk to the developer.
He has just removed the app from iTunes and his site, but if you want, please feel free to contact him.
As stated in another thread, we are working to bring you UAB in your home, at your job, and even on the run. Once we have something to announce, we'll be doing so.
Thank you again for your support and enthusiasm. Our members are what make UAB what it is. _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

WOW! I had no idea it wasn't official! I hope there is an official version soon. I can access UAB via the web on my phone, the app just simplified it. You just can't see any info. Thanks for letting us know! |

Well, actually, THANK YOU! We had no idea this app even existed.
Btw, I did down load it, and installed it and it seems to work fine for me.
There is also another app you can use. Search for Shoutcast on iTunes, then download and install that app. The in the app, search for Utilidors and you can select from 2 streams. Depending on your connection, choose which one you'd like. _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

Yeah, my home theater set-up is much better than my home computer, so I would often dock my iPhone and use the app to stream UAB at home. I can use the Quicktime option to stream it from the website, but the app just made it easier.
I'd love to see a simplified version of the Now Playing page crammed into an official app. |

Downloaded Shoutcast. Looks like a pretty good app.
BTW, I don't know if the person who made the UAB app violated any rights or anything, but it is kind of cool that a fan liked UAB enough (and was smart enough) to make an app. |

More than that, though... It was through that app that I actually discovered this site. I had it before I knew this place existed. |

It was done without our permission or knowledge. We do appreciate the initiative he took to create it, we just wish he had consulted with us first.
We want to have more input to look, feel and content since we are responsible for it all. I'm glad we were found as a result of the app, but still should have been done with our knowledge and assistance. _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I agree with you on that, because I assumed as probably did alot of those who downloaded the app, that it was created by you. Glad I had a problem with the app, so you became aware! |
