1. 4/5Great app but a few bugs

   I’ve been using this app for several years now and love the content. I purchase the annual subscription and love the quality of shows. My only complaints are technical ones. When I’m in my car connected to my Bluetooth stereo and have to pause to take a call the app crashes or goes back to the Home Screen. Same thing happens when I switch from one Bluetooth device to another. Lately, I’ve been having trouble with my subscription. I keep getting error messages that my subscription has expired (I still have 4 months left). Restarting the app works occasionally, but not the last couple days. I put a trouble ticket into the Apple Store so hopefully I’ll get a fix soon.

2. 5/5Great App for listening to old-time radio shows!

   I love this app! I've listened to all of Bob Hope's old radio shows and look forward to many other shows to listen to. I especially enjoy listening to these old shows while I'm in the car. I have purchased an iPhone 7Plus and followed the usual protocol to move from an older phone (iPhone5) to a new one, backing up the old phone and then restoring the new phone from the backup. However Vintage Radio wasn't working on my new iPhone7 Plus so I was frustrated. A simple e-mail to Orion got me the solution -- Michael told me to delete the old app and redownload it. Then I restored my purchases (the subscription) and everything is working as it should be. I've tried other old-time radio apps but this one is the best by far -- it's got the biggest variety and the shows are all clear and easy to listen to. Great app and great support -- what's not to love? Anybody interested in old-time radio shows should download this app and get one of the subscriptions so that you can enjoy these great shows (many aired live with little rehearsal and it's great fun to listen to the ad-libbing to cover their mistakes!)

3. 5/5LOVE IT👍👍

   Fantastic app. and what a selection offered. I'm an OTR fan and it just doesn't get any better than this and the convenience of having this app so handy. Prior to this apps. release I had been running the ' light ' version. When I realized the full version of this app was out, I jumped right on it. Great decision! Besides, I had hours upon hours of enjoyment the Devs previously provided at no charge with the light version I felt compelled to pay them back in kind. Can't Miss App. 👍👍✌ Update: For the reviewers that seem to have a problem with content or installation ....Simple, just read the information provided. There is a plethora of shows offered in every genre here. I subscribed for the yearly membership and had no problems whatsoever. If you do encounter a problem write to the Devs (before prematurely posting a negative comment) and they will reply immediately. Their very conscientious towards providing an app that people will enjoy, and they take this app very seriously.

4. 5/5The best of them all

   I’ve downloaded multiple OTR apps over the last few years but this is the one that I come back to, time and time again. I’ve had to delete it on occasion to clear up space, but, without fail, I go and download it again shortly thereafter. I’ve heard every episode of most of the Crime & Detective stories and have been branching out. I appreciate that there is no censorship of the original ads (such as when shows are sponsored by cigarette companies) as I have encountered this on other apps and feel it detracts from the show as a whole. Thank you so much for making something so amazing available to us in a day and age where sitting and just listening to something on the radio is so uncommon. I didn’t grow up in the era when these shows originally were broadcast, but this makes me feel like I could have for a little while.

5. 5/5The only app for classic radio plays

   There is nothing written today as good as the old classic radio plays of the 30s, 40s and 50s. I researched classic radio apps after tiring of having to listen to whatever classic radio show was being played at any one time on Sirius Radio. The free version of this app is really amazing and has enough choices to satisfy most people, but I have up-graded to their premium to get full access to every broadcast that I can imagine wanting to hear. I have listened to all 432 episodes of Gunsmoke for instance. I also love The Shadow, Suspense and many others. This app has them all. I use this app every day without fail. One word of caution: all classic radio broadcasts have lower recording quality than digital broadcasts. Classic Radio junkies like me get used to it, and it becomes part of the ambience.
