Yes it is an app and the app allows you to listen to music news sports and other shows. In the email they said that they have added a universal access channel so instead of going to iBlink radio to find the podcast it will stream the podcast and show. The app is 100 percent accessible and the agogo team did a great job making this app.isaac [email protected] Skype gold_wildcat
