RadioApp - App Review



Am and FM radio still exist, although who knows for how long. The fact is that as we go more towards DAB (and DAB+), there are fewer receivers.

This handy App allows you to tune in to the masses of available content, wherever you are.

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
You start with the invitation to 'Slide to find a station'. By sliding the ribbon, you change the wavelength, which is also displayed digitally above. When you find a station its name is displayed.

You can also enter a station name in the search box.

Having tuned into a station, apart from, obviously, listening to it, you can also use it as an alarm, or add a new country, and save as a favourite.

It is also possible to share the station you are listening to with a very attractive equivalent of a photo of an iPhone with the display.

Cost
The App Costs $2.

Indispensability
The real plus is to tune into AM and FM stations while being nowhere near a transmitter.

Dependability
This is an iPhone App which works in 1x and 2x modes on an iPad.

Security
The App uses your location, although this is optional.

ACIDS Test Rating:

Am, FM, anywhere (with Internet access)
