I desperately want to love this app. I love the design and features, and really want to support Indy developers. The app looks great on CarPlay screens, and it’s great how faves sync including to a Mac app. The iOS widgets are appreciated. All wonderful. Unfortunately, after 9 months of trying to be devoted to Broadcasts, I have to give it up for two reasons: streaming stability and missing stations in its directory. For whatever reason, streaming is way less reliable on Broadcasts than two alternatives, Apple Music and TuneIn. Broadcasts is much slower to start playing after hitting the play button, and streams are less reliable. Sometimes they never start, and they drop out way more frequently than on other apps. It becomes unusable on stations that have a long pre-roll announcement before the stream plays. Broadcasts directory of stations, while seemingly large, is missing a lot of key stations for me and I can’t find the URLs to manually add the stations. This is especially true for Canadian CBC and Australian ABC stations. These are public broadcasters, so it’s not a commercial exclusivity thing. I’ll keep checking on Broadcasts and hope for improvement, but have to move away from it for regular use. Show more

This is the best by far online radio app for iPhone and Mac! Ability to add personal stations is the clincher for me and it always works. Not one complaint save for syncing between apps...if that happens? It is the BEST app out there. ADDED WITH LAST UPDATE on 6/3/21!!! I am done with all the others, Broadcasts 2 is the way to go.

If this the current App as designed on the iPhone only, it would be worth close to 5 stars. If it were a superb one for my iPad as well, then it's worth noticing. Add a Mac OS and AppleTV version and you have a whole family of well-built, elegant and beautiful Internet Radio apps that essentially lets you listen to both your local and foreign radio stations almost instantly. Not only that, but all of your carefully curated stations you do on, say, your Mac, get copied to iCloud and synched to all of the others. You never have to add or fix a station twice. I use this app constantaly and am pleased to see the developer continuing to refine and polish it, but it really doesn't need much more. Maybe and alarm mode so you can wake up to a station of your choice? But then it would be competing with all of those other (usually lousy) alarm clock apps. Show more

I ALREADY DID!

Thanks for this simple and easy to use app. If you just want radio stations without all the bulk and ads of Tune In this is the app for you. Easy to use and customize. Spend the $4.99. Well worth it. Show more

I love the ability to add my own radio stations, customize the icons and have it instantly sync between macOS/iOS and have easy access in CarPlay. Very Happy!!!!!

i wish this worked for the local terrestrial stations that have set up online live streams. it seems like this works for prerecorded/syndicated station broadcasts? i really wanted this one to be the one. no others seem to work either. i have tried different addresses for the stream and it just won't work.

Good app, could use a menu bar icon/button.

The developer has been really awesome in helping resolve the family sharing issue... great app love it!

The interface is best in class for radio apps. And the organization features are perfect. However, the app needs some improvement in searching. You can't search all countries at the same time for something like 'classical' or 'public radio'. The app requires you to pick a country to search inside of. Also, if you know the name of station you’re looking for but not the country it’s from, the station can be very difficult to find. The app Triode gets searching right. You can search all stations globally for things like genres or station names. With better station search, this app would be the best. Show more

Says it support family sharing but it doesnt unlock or work. I wanted to share this my wife but its a no go ?

thankyou

This app is great for radio listeners. It syncs on all of your Apple devices (MacOS and iOS) and you pay just for once. Steve is a very active developer and makes it better with every release. Looking forward to V2. Show more

What a wonderful app syncs with my Apple car play in my carI can scroll through all the stationsWhile driving controls are on my steering wheel love this app

Often especially at the weekend, there is no uplodating of the days broadcast and if there, it will often be just one news program, for example either the six or nine news Show more

Great app with simple / modern / clean design It shows up in CarPlay but I cannot play most stations. Seems it needs an update after iOS 14/14.3

This is a Great App. One of my favorite app on my Apple ecosystem

unable to navigate app using voice over. Without voiceover, this makes this app unusable to the blind.

Amazing app! Amazing developer. Great responsiveness related to customer support.

This would be great radio app for driving, but as phone looses and regains connection, it eventually gives up and stops trying. Even worse, it displays error message which makes it impossible to restart without stopping the car, unlocking phone, dismissing some weird useless stream error message and starting again. Basically, works fine home on wifi, useless in car. The other thing is no contact to developer using email. I do not have twitter account and never plan to. Twitter page shown by help link is completely incomprehensible, useless for finding useful help or contacting author. In summary, seemed great when came out, I like the promise and gui, paid for full version, now really disappointed. Seems fixable, but no way to let developer know. If anyone is listening: if you display stream error number xyz, you failed. We do not care, we want to hear radio. Try again, and again, and again,... Got the message? And get rid of error messages... we know our phone providers in Midwest have crappy network. Show more
