5/5A Valuable & Vital Local Resource
Regardless of the subject matter or topic being presented, I have consistently found their programs interesting & top notch. While I could add additional feedback, I’d rather conclude with the following words: 1) I FINALLY re- committed my on-going financial support to KQED this morning; and, 2) Because of this, I concluded that making such a contribution is simply an integral part of maintaining any kind of relationship. I highly recommend everyone to KQED as a local treasure and asset. Lastly, if you can, please consider also making a contribution to KQED.

2/5Good Content, But Needs Better Default Settings and Optimization
I’ve been using the new KQED app for a while now, and while the content remains top-notch, there are a couple of issues that need addressing. First, the app tends to make my iPhone 15 noticeably warm, especially after prolonged use. This isn’t something I experience with other news apps, so I suspect there might be some optimization issues that KQED needs to look into. Secondly, I believe the radio option should be the default interface rather than the news site. KQED has a strong presence in the listening medium, and many users, like myself, primarily use the app for live radio and podcasts. Having to navigate away from the news site to access the radio feature is an unnecessary hassle. Overall, while the content quality is excellent, these changes could significantly enhance the user experience. Prioritizing the app’s performance and aligning its default settings with user preferences would make it much more enjoyable to use.

4/5Over a lifetime of KQED; 🌻 “🔝of the MARK” ✅
Are used to listen to morning edition on the way to school, and I loved the personal opinion and pieces that listeners could relate to kqed as I listen to it on the way to school in my household days when it was playing on 88.5 FM here in San Francisco. Then, over the years, I would always catch Science Friday with Ira Flatow, and now I still like to listened Robert Krulwich, who used to be on Radiolab journalist who still churns-out scientific loot now and then on Saturday’s and Sunday’s. Last, but not least, I do love the radio puzzles, and will short with NYC; more than that I always look forward to wait wait don’t tell me as it airs on Chicago’s, Public radio, PRI, and then again there is also this American life which will always be a quaking, moving masterpiece of American technology meets drama, meets reverie and sly, witty appeal [And A+ / applause].

5/5High Quality Local News You Can Trust
Thank you, KQED, for your commitment to reporting based on facts. I am a more informed Bay Area resident, thanks to you. Coverage is insightful, thoughtful and well researched by journalists who care about their impact on the community they report on and for. I am a sustaining member of both KQED & NPR and it is the monthly donation I make for my entire community - we are all better off with public radio. Please join me in considering a donation you can afford to keep the CPB alive!

5/5News!
I like this station because it provides you with information you would not normally hear on other stations! I listened to it ,before, I head out on the road, to find out, how the traffic is moving. Also? I listings to the different guest that appear on the program sharing how they, were able to write a book. This stations gives points of view that is thought provoking and enlightening!

          "body": "Regardless of the subject matter or topic being presented, I have consistently found their programs interesting & top notch. While I could add additional feedback, I’d rather conclude with the following words: 1) I FINALLY re- committed my on-going financial support to KQED this morning; and, 2) Because of this, I concluded that making such a contribution is simply an integral part of maintaining any kind of relationship. I highly recommend everyone to KQED as a local treasure and asset. Lastly, if you can, please consider also making a contribution to KQED.",

          "body": "I’ve been using the new KQED app for a while now, and while the content remains top-notch, there are a couple of issues that need addressing. First, the app tends to make my iPhone 15 noticeably warm, especially after prolonged use. This isn’t something I experience with other news apps, so I suspect there might be some optimization issues that KQED needs to look into. Secondly, I believe the radio option should be the default interface rather than the news site. KQED has a strong presence in the listening medium, and many users, like myself, primarily use the app for live radio and podcasts. Having to navigate away from the news site to access the radio feature is an unnecessary hassle. Overall, while the content quality is excellent, these changes could significantly enhance the user experience. Prioritizing the app’s performance and aligning its default settings with user preferences would make it much more enjoyable to use.",

Then, over the years, I would always catch Science Friday with Ira Flatow, and now I still like to listened Robert Krulwich, who used to be on Radiolab journalist who still churns-out scientific loot now and then on Saturday’s and Sunday’s. Last, but not least, I do love the radio puzzles, and will short with NYC; more than that I always look forward to wait wait don’t tell me as it airs on Chicago’s, Public radio, PRI, and then again there is also this American life which will always be a quaking, moving masterpiece of American technology meets drama, meets reverie and sly, witty appeal [And A+ / applause].",
