I use a radio app when driving, and had been struggling to find one that handled connectivity loss without pausing and needing a manual restart. This app seems to handle that fine - you necessarily get a bit of a hole when it loses connectivity, but then picks it up automatically when connectivity returns. Great when driving! Other bits haven't been quite so positive. Had a few occasions when it just appears to hang, and have had to restart the app to get it working again.
The app's visual hierarchy is easily navigable, by state, then by FM/AM, then by station number. I like that. A number of stations were listed in my area. I tested a station for a few seconds, it seemed to come through fine. Unfortunately, they do not carry Orlando's Magic 107.7 which is the only reason I downloaded the app so I'm out. And this is the second FM radio app not to have the station - looks like I'll be migrating over to iHeartRadio (or just continue using my boombox).
I like the fact that I can go all across the country and pick out my favorite radio stations. I am not stuck with boring stations anymore. As for the ads: I wish you would drop Wish as an advertiser. One of their models in a photo for long skirts had a foot that was twisted, deformed and only ONE TOE with a long toenail. Wish is from China, but I don't want to see a Chinese bound foot. I thought foot binding was a thing of the past.
I live in a very rural, mountainous part of the country with extremely limited choices for radio not to mention the reception which is terrible. When I started using this app I was impressed with the clarity of the stations and the variety of choices was amazing. Now in just a few days I already have favorites and am eager for my favorite time slots to begin. I love this five star app.
Very good with some drawbacks. When you open in one state you need to re-select the next state - select it twice - before it changes. Also the coverage needs to be broader in some states. e.g. No listings in Tallahassee, FL. Otherwise, in my neck of the woods the coverage for news and NPR is superb. Also, college radio coverage could be improved. I have used it to complete a Nielsen Ratings Diary..
After 1 day, I uninstalled it. You get a full screen ad every 4 or 5 station switches. To get rid of them, you need to look around, as the "Close" button, or the "X", or whatever, keeps moving between ads. When I started the app the next day, I got a YouTube screen, with no option to say "No, thanks". Tried again, it eventually played a TikTok ad, with sound and all. I understand they want to make money, but showing some respect for the user wouldn't hurt. Or would it? I'll use my regular radio.
I absolutely love this app. It has a simple layout, and even though it has ads they dont pop up every other click and the ones that do pop up usually are just small and out of the way unlike other apps I've tried. The radio sound is so clear it's like playing music right off my music player. I actually have been bluetoothing my phone to my stereo and play a radio station through bluetooth because the clarity is even better than local FM stations. Love this!
Installed in 2019 been using for certain stations I could not obtain with another app I use. I like the simplicity of this app , navigates well light on features but no complaints. Impressive list of stations to choose from, I hope the list continues to grow. Keep up the excellent work. THANK YOU !
only had it a day, but good experiences so far for canada and u.s. results. current song is identified in mini.player, but not when station profile expanded. also, i didn't see any way to sort favourited stations, and the station farthest down can be blocked from being selected by the mini.player (might depend on size of google ad shown at the bottom).
My experience with this app has greatly improved. It took some doing, but the professionals alleviated the issue, whether it was their fault or not. I consider this a fantastic app if you want to go back in time to relive some of the people you grew up listening to, as was my case. I thank these people with all of my heart ❤ THANKS AGAIN GUYS. Semper Fi.
It's no fm radio it's a data eating app , it used 47mb and I never even used it but long enough to watch it say connecting to server. Read the permissions and you'll be shocked . Crazy just what a simple app requires, change or modify system settings,really? Download or delete my personal information and that's the beginning. Read permissions before downloading any app
It's great been able to stream radio from around the world. The app will randomly start streaming if the app is running in the background any time of the day or night, the app also stop and start streaming while streaming from time to time. When it's working it is great.
For me it is important to be able to turn the radio both on and OFF. It is u difficult to turn off the radio and after I thought it was off, it would turn back on by itself at random and inopportune times. I found that glitch very annoying.
It is one of the most satisfying radio apps I have ever used. The variety and access to stations nationally and times leaves me speechless. I would recommend the app to anyone who has a broad taste for music of all types and news. The app is a blessed addition to my daily routine.
Couldn't even use the app bc every time I clicked on my state (Missouri) it would open up Kansas even though they weren't near each other on the list. Wouldn't let me search for a station or anything. Just overall useless if you want to actually choose the station you're listening to
Can I download and get on 95.7 to put in a word for a long time like you should go to 200 200 and boom it was gone boom the station is really leaves a lot to be desired. Get the stuff for the phones with all your people that's supposed to know everything about how to help and download and upload different things for people you're not doing your job.
I like it, now i can enjoy listening to stations from Chicago area where I grew up. Next, I will try other states to see what they have to offer, I also like the heart feature to remember which ones were the best to me !
It's nice to find an app that actually does what it says it can do. Would give 5 stars but there are ads that play over what you want to hear for too long every time you change stations so you miss stuff. So if you accidently bump the station and try to go back quickly to Trump's speech you will get angry like I did that you missed his funny slap down of the press..
Great app. I've been using this app for years but I switched phones a few weeks ago and hadn't gotten around to down loading this app until recently. I see there has been a change/(update?) to it's format and now there is no off button. How the heck do you turn the radio off? I don't like to have it running on pause all day while I'm not using it or restart my phone every time I finish listening to it. Please help?
