1. 5/5My favorite app for streaming radio

   This app works well for its purpose. My favorite functions include the ability to search stations by artist and to know the bitrate of the stream up front. I also like the fact that the next button takes you to your next favorited station. This works wonderfully when driving because it feels like you’re flipping through stations like in the radio—especially if your car allows you to use your steering wheel to cycle through tracks/stations. The interface isn’t as pretty as TuneIn, but there are no ads and it’s free so no complaints there. If I had a wishlist item, though, it would be to the ability to Chromecast. The lack of this is the only reason I have to switch back to TuneIn occasionally. This is a great app that is extremely functional. Also love the fact that I can access my streams through a browser when using a computer.

2. 3/5Favorites and car mode still needs refinement. Bug found.

   Thanks for recent update to make favorites link on front page. But favorites needs to function the same way as when your in car mode and auto play whenever you tap on a favorite. Then when your playing a favorite station, you should be able to scroll up/down through you favorites and auto play each station. There should be a option for car mode that you can turn it off and on permanently, so that if you want to remain in car mode it will be your choice. There should be an option to make favorites your front page permanently if you would like. Then favorites would always be the first thing that you see when you open the app (this is what people want). Lastly, there seems to be a bug with this new version so that your not able to pause from your car stereo while using car play and also mostly not working when you try to start playing a station again from your car stereo after stopping the station manually. Bug is so bad with car play it forces me to use native app for whatever radio station I’m playing instead of Audials.

3. 5/5New Favorite Radio App

   First off, thank you to the developer for creating a free and ad-free app. The radio app I had been using was lat updated 4 years ago and 3 of my favorite local stations stopped working and the developer apparently no longer responds to help emails. I spent about a week trying different radio apps but the majority did not have all the local stations I listen to. Yesterday, I tried Audials and was happy to be able to save ALL 12 of my favorite local stations. This is now my new favorite radio app 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. The only issue I have come across is several stations have about a 10 second lag before they start but that is probably the actual online station website and not necessarily the app causing this. Even with the lag, this is still a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rated app. I definitely recommend Audials.

4. 5/5Just installed and am very impressed.

   I usually use Tunein and iHeart radio apps but, this Audials app has everything that they do and the ability to record what I want as well which makes this a superior app as far as I’m concerned. It also has the podcasts that I’m interested in and it even details the stream quality of every station on the list. You can schedule an alarm to play a station at a certain time as well. The app is apparently free so you have nothing to lose by installing and trying it out. I did notice one thing. If a small local station doesn’t show up on the list you can search for the radio station call sign letters and it will pop up and you can add it to your favorites.

5. 5/5Internet radio app

   Great app. Was looking for a hassle free internet radio app for a while and found this in a list somewhere. Free, ad free, good stuff. A few minor bugs--pausing the app via my AirPods works fine, and restarting the music via them is fine sometimes, but occasionally the app needs to be viewed to begin playback after a pause, and more rarely, the entire app must be restarted to end an endless cosmetically annoying attempt to buffer or something (though this is purely cosmetic). Fix the bugs and the app is exactly what you want. I put this app on my home screen with the intention of using it permanently, hope the bug fixes continue. I appreciate the bug fix reports.
