I ve loved The Blast since I found The music is great and I ve discovered a lot of awesome artists since I started using the app But I ve been having a lot of problems with the music stopping mid song followed by the app crashing Also a lot of the album art won t refresh when a new song comes along Maybe this is a problem with my phone I don t know                 Great music when it plays Headbanging Christ Lover

Update The developers contacted me about my review They said they were incorporating more old stuff They also said they have something for older stuff Saturdays for it I might try it in the future Original review This app caught my attention because I love Christian hard rock metal At first use I thought it was okay as it went on however I noticed that they would play the same songs a few hours later after they had played it a few hours previously I then noticed that this was the regular way they did this I kept the app after this realization seeing if they would mix it up they didn t My main problem with this app is that I think it s too limited I think it needs WAY more older stuff E G older Disciple Skillet etc They did play some older things but they were few and far between I understand that you need to play new stuff but not everyone likes the new stuff raises hand I think they should mix it up a few days a week with older stuff When I say older stuff I mean Disciple s Back Again By God etc and Skillet s Collide etc Overall I give this app three stars Too limited             Too Limited maybe Metalhead for Christ

Excellent app stunning features                     Outstanding Vinebranch

Shows what s playing and you can rate each song and select favorites HUGE improvement over previous versions Thanks                     Great Music Great App DJ2027

I ve loved this radio station for a while now and this update was the best one yet Now the app pauses the audio when headphones Bluetooth are unplugged Also resuming via Bluetooth works much better Great improvements                     Love the update Sam.White

Best source for Christian hard rock and metal                     Blastin Out the Word of God JMTemplar

This app is amazing I use it all the time and it s great for hearing newer Artists and their hits I love it and there s nothing not to like about this app KEEP ON BLASTING                     The BLAST mattrsplattr

Glad my friend turned me on to it Will tell everyone I know                     Great station saved101204

Finding a station with the songs you like impossible         Too difficult to read saytravel

Love this app Best music on the internet If I could suggest one thing is when you unplug the headset the app would stop Other then that it is great                     Great app DSK09

If you like all styles of Christian music you will love this app Streaming 128k is awesome                     I love this app Dbstratton

The thing I don t like about it is that it freeze s alot                     The Blast Fm TheMegaFamily

There seems to be a few problems It won t tell me what songs I m listening to and I can t seem to favorite any songs             I love it but R0cksas0ra

The app works great Station is itself is awesome                     Love the station ARWorsham

The app runs very well I suggest to get this app if you are interested in this kind of music                     Works great White-Metalhead

Crashes every time I try to open the app     Please fix ALMIST21

I have been listening to blast for about a week Praise God for the wonderfully talented and gifted band featured on this station May God bless the Blast FM crew and all bands played on their station helping spread God s message with music                     The Blast The best current Christian Rock Polyguru

This app is amazing how I can listen to Christian bands that I have never herd off Now I figured out a way to listen to it on my nokia phone D 5 stars it is                     Amazing Polar master

Love the music Sometimes repeats the same stuff too much at the same time of day each day i e 7 am everyday sometimes same songs as 5 pm Controls are too small to touch in car 128 is too high use while driving in 3G mode I wish we could give ratings to songs we like like thumbs up or down I wish we could operate it from the lock screen have the app not lock screen or stream name of songs across screen                 Good but Mr. C - Science Guy

Let me be clear I m not reviewing the content The Blast is one my favorite online stations I just have some serious issues with the way the app v2 4 is designed First off the screen On an iPad it wouldn t be a problem but on an iPhone or iPod touch the controls are far too small and finicky for use when mobile I have thin precise fingers I can t imagine how tough it would be for people with thick fingers to get the right stream As a side note I couldn t get the 32K stream to work at all Background the logo and spread the selectors out a little or better yet make the bandwidth selection a preference so the main screen isn t so difficult to deal with in a car The backgrounding mechanism like the rest of this app seems crude compared to some others I ve used In fact it s not something that should ever have to be brought to the user s attention let alone using up a screen in Mobile Safari It s disconcerting to punch up the station only to have it stop when the phone goes into lock mode because I forgot to explicitly background it You may not find trance progressive to be your kind of music but anyone who wants to see how a great station specific app is done should try out the AH FM app The AOL Radio app is also pretty good I think TheBlast deserves an app at least as good as those         The station is great The app Not so much Larry Kollar

The app used to run fine but now when after starting it will play for several seconds and then stop playing even though app still tells me that it is playing music I now find myself just playing the blast through the tunecast app that actually works properly Please fix     What Happened Krazeeight
