Customer Ratings and Feedback Comments

WEEI Live currently has 14 customer ratings with an average rating of two out of five stars.

Customer feedback has been somewhat positive, with users commenting that this app is very good but the updates are a little redundant. There is also a high demand for iPhone 5 optimization so hopefully we will see that in a future update.

Personal Comments by Reviewer

To be totally honest, this app isn’t perfect, and it’s not particularly impressive, but it does deliver on its promises, providing you with loads of great content in both audio and visual formats.

The live shows are very entertaining and if you follow a local Boston sports team then you simply must download this app if only just to keep up to date with all the latest news and scores.
