Very fun and useful app for the Fire - a must have app

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is a great app for listening to radio on the Fire. It installed easily, and the user interface is clean and simple. The app gives you access to a huge range of radio options -- you can select local stations or select a category (such as news, sports, talk, music, etc.) which then brings up a wide range of local and non-local stations.

You can also select specific music genres, such as "classic rock," "country,", etc. and it then presents you with all the stations that specialize in that type of music. You can even select by language should you want to listen to stations that broadcast in a particular language (and the language list is huge!).

One of my favorite features is the podcast menu. If allows access to It also includes a podcast menu that has a huge list of podcasts on every topic you could think of. A real treasure-trove for podcast fans.

It allows you to set favorites, and automatically tracks a list of recent stations listened to. Playback has been very clear for me, with only an occasional stutter. It works in both portrait and landscape mode

I'm having an enormous amount of fun finding new radio stations. Highly recommend!!

Great App

Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2011

Verified Purchase

Phone: HTC Incredible
Location: Southern California

The other reviews have it right: this application is good. I just wanted to add my two cents and describe specific situations where this application has benefited me, and where it might benefit you too.

Pros:

1) I was able to find my favorite radio program very easily (Motley Fool Money). I no longer have to download the podcast to my MP3 player, as I can pull it up very quickly using this application on my HTC Incredible.

2) Easy to use interface, with access to international stations such as BBC Radio 1.

3) Great connectivity. It is possible to get better reception for live radio using my phone than my car radio when going through areas with dodgy radio coverage.

4) I was able to find FM HD Radio channels for my favorite AM stations (and all the FM channels available to me!). The difference in audio quality is HUGE. Of course, this only helps if you have an HD radio; otherwise, you can use TuneIn itself.

Cons:

1) The negative here is that using the radio draws battery down very quickly. In my own circumstances, I am unable to connect the power to my phone at the same time as I have audio out connected (HTC Incredible), so I have to alternate between my MP3 player and phone to make sure that my phone stays charged.

Conclusion:

This application is very good if you want to know the names and music that are played in your locality. It is great for finding radio podcasts, is very useable, and is all around very impressive. Highly recommended.

TuneIn has become harder to use and has lost some stations

Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2019

Verified Purchase

In general, TuneIn is a great app and works very well on my Android phone. I have also long used it on my Kindle, connected to stereo speakers in my living room. About a year ago, something happened to the app (but only on my Kindle) and the user interface changed completely, making it much harder to find stations. Then about 5-6 months ago, there were more changes and it seems TuneIn lost a lot of stations, especially many of the European stations I used to enjoy, but also some American stations. There are still a lot of US and European stations available, but the numbers seem to have dwindled substantially, with many stations bringing up an error message like "This station is not available". Why are these stations not available on my Kindle but they are on my Android?? Also, why did TuneIn screw around with the UI making it more confusing to use and harder to find stations? By the way, I became a PAYING TuneIn customer a few months ago, thinking that would fix these problems, and it hasn't!

NO POINT IN PAYING FOR PRO-VERSION WHEN FREE VERSION DOESN'T WORK. DEVEOPER IS AWOL.

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2015

Verified Purchase

I have the pro-editions for Nexus 7 and BlackBerry 9780/9900. On those devices the app rocks. Solid audio quality and decent features.

For BlackBerry OS10 (e.g., Q10) only non-pro editions downloaded here or on My World. But while audio quality is good something is causing it to be herky-jerky with fits and starts making for a very annoying and disagreeable listening experience. As an alternative, so far all I've found to do is to listen through BlackBerry's browser on each station's website which I've bookmarked for ease of access.

This app deserves -1 stars. Cannot recommend. Developer has not responded to trouble reports. And to my knowledge there is no pro-edition for BlackBerry. But given the herky-jerky listening experience that's probably just as well.

Still looking for an optimal way to listen to my beloved NPR stations.
----
Update: Later same day, December 23, 2015.
- Received a prompt to update my version.
- Update does not resolve the herky-jerky listening issues. I increased the buffer to the maximum 30-seconds without much effect.

Update: December 24, 2015.
- Received promotion offer for a 30-day trial for the premium edition, which I'd be happy to take. However, after 3-days of attempting to try it, the program is not responding to my requests - when I select "START YOUR FREE TRIAL" nothing happens.
- Ads are now more frequently annoying and in the way of selecting/operating program controls, but as noted will not allow premium upgrade on Blackberry OS10. Obviously not written for Blackberry.
- Herky-jerky audio continues with horribly annoying listening experience.
- Still using the native Blackberry web browser for listening to radio programs.

Update: March 2, 2016.
- Deleted this app from my BlackBerry Q10: still Herky-jerky audio
- Downloaded free BB version on My World. Lacks even basic features, but audio is clean. Better than nothing. Arguably no better (or worse) than selecting fav radio stations using browser and saving bookmark to home screen.

Update: May 23, 2016 Gave this another try.
Good News: Herky jerky audio fixed
Bad News: JAVA script errors every time a station is selected!
-Conclusion: iHeart radio more reliable, if you can find the station you want.
-Radio stations providing links on internet is a more reliable and less frustrating experience than using a bum app!

J'en ai testé pas mal, c'est possiblement la meilleure application de radio dispo sur l'AppStore.
On y retrouve des radios Françaises que les autres applis n'ont pas, autant qu'une très grande variété de radios FM et web radios du monde entier.
L'interface est simple et fonctionnelle.
Vous aurez toujours quelque chose à écouter qui vous plaira.
