680 The Fan

We moved to Atlanta 1966 from mobile Al. That was same year both the Falcons and Braves came to the city . I was lucky enough to have parents that made football available to me . Yes and age five I was convinced I would be the next # 60 and the first Atlanta Falcon to be drafted out of the University of Texas Mr. Tommy Nobis . I idealized that man and I grew older I realize my choice I made was solid one . Amazing how that man give back to city he loved . It looks like it’s time that y’all at 680 and of course falcon fans to make a solid push to get the face of the Falcon’s in the hall of fame . Needless to say I wasn’t the next Tommy Nobis , I can tell y’all my family and I love The Atlanta Falcons and The Atlanta Braves. I’m grateful for 680 The Fan and always will be . You don’t to ever have worry about me giving up on the Braves or Falcons it just not in my DNA to give up or to quit !! Thanks to 680 The fan for being the rock that holds our teams together.

I’m Georgia raised and a fan of all Georgia sports teams. I no longer live in Georgia, so I’ve used this app for two years to stay abreast of dialogue. Unfortunately, the app continues to disappoint. When you first log into the app and press the play button, the app kicks me to the App Store aka “Spam”. While listening to the app, it will occasionally kick me to the App Store and then the stream is interrupted. I am hoping that updates are on the horizon to improve the consistency of the app. I enjoy listening to all of the shows.

Living on the West Coast, I rely on this app to stay close to my all my favorite teams back in Atlanta. Because of the time difference, I usually miss this first few hours of each day’s programming, so I really love the new app’s capability to catch up on whole shows. As other reviews have pointed out, it does still tend to shut down too often. But THE most annoying thing is that, for some unexplainable reason on the app only (don’t even think this happens on the online live stream), the first NINE MINUTES of each hour are endless commercials - especially during the morning shows. After those NINE MINUTES of commercials, you’re all of a sudden thrown back into programming “already in progress” - having missed almost all the first block. You’ll then get 3-4 minutes of programming before going to their standard SEVEN MINUTE break. So essentially, there’s no reason to use this app for the first 22-23 minutes of each hour unless you love listening to commercials. It’s an egregious lack of respect for listeners’ time, especially when there are so many other programming options - including other Atlanta sports talk stations, whose app doesn’t play ads for the first NINE MINUTES of each hour.

Since the major overhaul of the app the interface and usability is MUCH better! The only frustrating thing is the amount of ads and how they randomly happen. It could be before, during, or after the radio stream. I would be willing to even subscribe or pay a one time fee to completely remove the ads. I live in North Georgia outside of the signal area so I rely on the app daily. I would greatly benefit from not having to mess with my phone and close an ad while driving down the road, especially with the new handsfree law. Love the station and the app, just looking for it to be a little more seamless to stream.

I love this app for live streaming my favorite ATL sports talk station. But I can’t always listen to entire shows due to my work schedule. It would be great if the content included true podcasts where Chris and Nick’s entire show was posted to the app for us to listen when we can’t listen live, not just clips from the shows. But thanks for the app and like Domino says “IT’S FREE”! So few of the best things are. 😁
