Problems loading ESPN Radio with new update (10/2012)

I just recently downloaded the update to ESPN radio to my iPhone 4. I have the latest iOS as well. The app doesn't load at all now and in the app store, ESPN radio is not even an option. Has anyone had this problem and know of a solution?? Thanks!

iPhone 4, iOS 6, ESPN Radio app not working

Hello, I'm having the same problem with my ESPN RADIO app as well. If this issue isn't handled soon, I will be contacting ESPN about my $4.99 refund. This is terrible, someone could have warned all the customers who purchased the ESPN Radio app that it would be removed from the app store.

Same exact problem with the ESPN Radio app. Updated Software from I-Tunes yesterday and now the app won't even open. By far the most used app on my phone and I can't get it working. My suggestion to all is to email Mike & Mike, Colin Cowherd and SVP & Rusillo and let them know we can't listen to their shows. Espnradio.com. Spread the word. They have microphones, maybe someone will listen to them.

In response to everyone I had the same problem so my plan was to delete then reinstall. However it appears the ESPN Radio App isn't in the App store anymore. If you click a direct link from ESPN to the app it says it's no longer available in the US. store. Appears to be a problem with the iTunes store or the radio app getting pulled. Still can't find a response or any sort of acknowledgement of this. Hopefully it will be back soon.

From ESPN directly...


"We know iPhone users are having problems with our app. We're working on it. We removed it from Apple store for now. Will be back soon."


"we are going through final approvals with Apple and hope to have something to you shortly...sorry for this issue."

As of 10/24 @ 10:00am ET, I just emailed espn and they replied with the following:


Thank you for reporting this issue to us. We are aware of the issue and working to resolve it as quickly as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience.




...so I guess they're working on it.
