I read the first line, agreed I won't read it. It used to be that everything she disliked on Pandora worked perfectly on Slacker. My wife has Pandora now and complains about ti constantly. Only downside it doesn't do artists but after a few thumbs down Pandora does get the hint. Oh and Pandora is good, you get a certain amount of skips and some ads, but you can still thumbs down or up songs. If you are still reading to this point.why? lol, Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend.Īnd companies wonder why piracy is alive and well. I have this really odd wide taste in music that ranges from Foreigner to Beastie Boys to Southern culture on Skids back to Eminem, it took so long to get to this point! This last one I reported and the response was 'Okay, I will alert the dev teams ticket closed'.I have 6 years invested in this account and the thought of starting over with a new service is exhausting to think about. I log back on, go back to my station if another ad plays it logs me out, if a song plays it works fine.UNTIL ANOTHER AD PLAYS! I assume that this is because slacker is trying to do something that out guest internet is blocking, the result is a session error and all Slacker knows to do is log out WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY TRYING TO DO!?!?!? Wonderful setup until an ad plays.here at work on the guest WiFi when an ad on slacker radio it logs me off with a session error (not a violation, just an error). I no longer have to unplug my phone to hit the floor, I reach over and turn down my speakers and leave my office I come back and turn up my speakers and continue listening. So now I using my tablet at work on the guest WiFi, works great as I run it to the line-in on my laptop, I have it set to listen to the device, and the audio is passed through to my speakers.

GUESS WHAT DEVICE I AM USING WHILE DRIVING!?!?!? My tablet does not do this but is a WiFi unit, yes I have a hotspot on my phone but my radio only supports a single BT device at one time and if my phone rings I have no hands free. The widget is nearly useless now since I cannot unfavorite a damn song from it on any device! THEN, on the phone if I do open the app I am always met with a timed ad, if I skip a song it usually plays a video add or a ad comes up that requires some sort of acknowledgment.

On my phone it is random that it will work for unfavoriting, on my Galaxy note tablet pro it takes 3 taps in a row to unfavorite a song it also only appears to register from with in the app. This used to be a single tap function tap to favorite, tap to unfavorite, tap to ban (select song or artist). So on my Favorites station I have found that if I unfavorite songs they remain in the lineup but stop playing as much I can also control the theme of this station (eventually) by unfavoriting a bunch of songs. Then the Ban Artist options completely disappeared for short time later it turned up inside the slide out menu, not ideal but ok.

It used to be great! You could Favorite, unfavorite, Ban a song, or Ban an Artist with ease.

Their ads are spaced out and appropriate in length unless you GO INTO the app, I will get to the in a moment.įavoriting and banning songs, this function has gotten worse.

Understood loud and clear, stop playing the systems as a free user Done.īut I am a free user and as such I hear ads, WHICH IS FINE! I totally support the concept of ad supported content and Slacker does not over do it. logging back in from this requires a captcha.errr. Sometime in the last 6 months they apparently implemented a rule that limits you to 12 total skips you can jump stations still but if you blow through all 12 skips in a certain amount of time it throws a session violation error and logs you off. I used to have two stations I favored (Guess I still do, I just use one less now), my Favorites station and a custom station I could go through all 12 skips and then just jump back and forth between the 2 stations till I found a song I wanted to hear. but if you still want to respond, read the last paragraph.įor a while now the slacker app on my Note 3 has irritated me: It used to be that if you ran out of skips you could jump stations and keep skipping run out, jump, skip, and so on. This is nothing more than a Friday morning complaint about something that does not really matter I expect NO ONE to read this.
