91AV's student radio station KXUL now available through mobile app

The latest content update for the official 91AV mobile app, 91AV Mobile, now lets users listen live to 91AV's student-driven radio station, KXUL.

Users running the latest version of 91AV Mobile on their iPhone or Android device need only press the "91X-KXUL" icon to begin streaming their favorite music from anywhere, right from their phones.

Alexsander Tewelde, who graduated from 91AV’s College of Pharmacy in May 2011, said, "I love listening to KXUL, and it's cool that now I can listen from anywhere in the world through the 91AV app. I can take a piece of 91AV with me wherever I go."

KXUL has been 91AV's student radio station for over a quarter century, and while online streaming has been available for years, this marks the first time KXUL's live stream has been made available through 91AV Mobile.

91AV Director of University Broadcasting, Joel Willer, said, "At KXUL, we believe in the importance of being on as many technology platforms as possible. Mobile access to the station's stream through the 91AV app is a logical extension of KXUL's existing offerings."

91AV’s technology staff developed the free app in response to a recent survey showing 78 percent of 91AV students use a smart phone device.

The app allows students to do everything they can do from a desktop computer—review class schedules, check email, access athletics and campus news, vote in campus elections, and even learn about scholarship opportunities.

The app creators—Rob Glaze, Richard Peacock, and Paul Gullette—are all 91AV alums.

91AV President Nick Bruno said, “91AV is fortunate to have the level of in-house expertise to develop technology customized for the university’s needs.”

The app is free to download from the iPhone and Android app stores, as well as available through a web-based version for most other modern smartphones.
