Pros and cons of The Radio app for iPhone and iPad
The Radio app good for
Great ap, can now listen to Uk radio wherever I am - will definately recommend to all my expat friends. Can you add Radio Shropshire? Loads of us in France listen.
I use this app to listen to the UK radio. That works perfectly for me. Very kind user interface.
A superb app for getting BBC Radio services all around the world. I cant imagine travelling without this app. Well recommended.
This is the only way I can get British radio in France now and I cant live without it. Thank you
I absolutely love this app, it has a simple and intuitive interface. I particularly like the feature that makes it a radio alarm clock however I have noticed that leaving the app running in the background overnight so that it can turn on in the morning severely drains the battery. I would happily rate it five stars if this could be improved!
This is the most reliable app I could find to listen to British radio stations live. Ideal for expats or Anglophiles. I strongly recommend it. The Listen Again app -by the same developer- is also excellent, and allows you to listen to your favourite programmes on demand. Especially useful for Radio 4 and Radio 4 Extra, imo.
The Radio app comes with a built-in alarm clock which allows you to wake up to your favourite radio station. I get to listen to Radio 4 and the Today programme every morning, from my bed in France - quel luxe! Although the time difference can be a tad frustrating.
Chill radio is also a plus - perfect ambience music when you need to chill or if you like to work to soft background music.
Enjoy!
Some bad moments
Stations take a while to load and once streaming the audio cuts out regularly.
Since they updated The Radio the app hardly ever works. Its constantly flashing up ads which is annoying and sometimes causes the app to stop working if Ive managed to get it working in the first place.
I would go ahead and purchase the full version but Im reluctant to if I can hardly ever get the free one to work - it doesnt bode well for the full version.
All in all a disappointment. The older version never had any issues.
Anything that enables me to get BBC Radio 1 in the States is a good thing. This app delivers lots of other great British radio stations as well.
It only has 10 radio stations, where are the rest or the 290 remaining ones? Stations take long to load. Not worthy !
To get all the channels just tap the little "i" symbol on the lower right side and hit favorite to the ones u want to hear then go back to the main page. Thats how u add channels
Have tried deleting and reinstall
iPod tough 2gen
