myTuner Radio App: FM stations

The equalizer no longer works in latest version (8.1.1). Also, the notification bar is harder to get rid of now. It used to disappear when closing the app, but now it sticks around, and when I swipe it away, it comes right back again. I need to exit the app, swipe it away, then close the app. The equalizer is much more important, though. Going to go back to Audials Play for now until these issues are fixed. [Edit 1/12/22: I did email you, five days ago, and did not hear back.]

Way too annoying. Station options are virtually unorganized; no info is provided about any of the stations, so one has to pick stations at random; I downloaded it to use as a clock radio, but that option was not apparent in the app; music simply stopped 3 times in the few minutes that I was diddling around with the thing. Nice in concept, but ineptly designed.

pretty good. better than tunein. saving podcasts in a certain order doesnt work and you cant clear the podcasts in the recent tab. you cannot pick up listening to a podcast where you left off which is annoying. the pay version is worth the money, the layout is good, the selection is good, and the sleep timer is customizable. it would be nice if the 3 problems i listed above were fixed. that would result in 5 stars.

It's impossible to rate this app without comparing it against TuneIn. I like this app mainly because the ads are way less intrusive than TuneIn (that has the bad habit of throwing in ads right in the middle of any song). Another thing I like about myTuner is that the radio stations load way faster than TuneIn. One thing against is the fact that myTuner does not have a buffer that allows you to pause or go back a few seconds or minutes of the audio you've been listening to for a while.

It a fairly standard radio streaming app with lots of station choices. However, if you want to add a station not present in their library, you have to do all the work, and most the time, it just doesn't work at all, it won't take the information. I've used other apps where you just supply the call letters, frequency, city & state, and they do the rest. Aside from that one issue, it's got a nice clean interface, that needs a dark theme, and its fairly easy-to-use.

This is the best app I've found since TuneIn. Allows favorites. So far the ads do not seem to be invasive. The interface is a bit busy but manageable. It finds and plays podcasts as well as live radio which should be standard feature of all radio Apps. It has a pop-up screen that allows you to see timescale as well as move slider thru. However, no jump forward or jump backward buttons, you must use the slider. But I do like this app structure and could be a contender with TuneIn.

For the most part I like this tuner. I get 90% of what I listen to here. There is however an annoying problem I am having with this tuner. When I receive a notification from another app, the volume of the stream reduces and will not recover until mytuner is restarted. Still looking into it but it does not happen with other streaming apps.

Tried several radio apps before this one. The one just never worked right, it would stop working if the screen was off, or at other random times. Another app worked better, but had too many ads and very annoying graphics when it first was opened. I like this one so far. A little tricky to navigate- but I haven't had it long enough to get used to it.

I think this app is ok. It has different radio stations, including some that are small and regional. BUT, cuts in and out CONSTANTLY. I can't listen for every long before it just stops working. Then it will come back on after 5 secs, 10s or 30s or just stop altogether. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to listen and every other minute, the app cuts off the sound for a few seconds.

Used to be five stars. Now, it demands to run in the background unless I do a force stop. If I connect to a Bluetooth device, it starts in the background. If I disconnect from a Bluetooth device, it starts in the background. If I restart my phone, it starts in the background. It's like the zombie TSR that refuses to die once and for all. Two stars because the station selection is second to none, but it's uninstalled until this issue is fixed.

5 stars until a couple weeks ago. Now it's 2 stars. The app was once amazing. There has always been ads placed in the app which I was cool with, it's free. Unfortunately the ads have become invasive. Just experienced a full screen add that I could not get out of without closing the app (which led me to this 2 star review). I'll give it 1 more week. If these invasive ads aren't fixed, I'm uninstalling and will find another app elsewhere.

Overall pretty happy. Started using this app when Tunein took a flying leap off a canyon with their fee changes and killed the free version. Ads here are tasteful and not obtrusive like others. Makes me more apt to look at them. Only thing I'd change is how the favorites list is laid out, the ability to change positions, and make the list visually pop out better with a better coloring or shadowing stand-out effect. But thank you for all that you do that is good

Giving credit where credit is due: they apparently fixed the bugs from the last update glitch... the favorites tab returned along with all my selected stations & podcasts. Podcasts are working again. A convenient app that combines both broadcast & streaming radio with a good selection of podcasts. My major complaint is with the aggressive ads but I wouldn't spend money on a platform that glitches this bad everytime there's an update. I guess that's the trade off. But those ads! Really?!?!?

Disappointing 😞 Seems like an excellent concept, but, so far, has almost no functionality. A few stations I selected at random played, but none of the numerous local stations I attempted to listen to did. No error message, or other indication of an issue, simply appeared to be loading and then stopped. Could be a great app if it is repaired.

Broken. Could be a decent app for all your radio needs. However it's massively broken. The favorites function doesn't work. You can favorite a station all you want and it won't populate in the favorites page. So don't go adding all your custom channels just to return and see that you have to do it all over again. I'll be switching to another app until this is fixed. I'm also waiting to see how long it takes to get requested stations added to the app. Update coming ... soon?

The dev added Google Play pass but the app still doesn't cast properly. Simply the annoying pop-up ads alone warrants this 1 star I looked through the app I see no FM option. Edit: you don't seem to know the difference between "ads" and "too many ads" and there are many apps that don't have ads and you have to compete with those so maybe a little less ads and excuses.

I use the paid version of myTuner Radio (no ads) to listen to my favorite radio station in the car. The app works well and I was able to add my radio station to Favorites to be able to tune into it easily. Unfortunately, every morning when I start my car and AndroidAuto connects to my car, myTuner Radio shows me a list called "For you", with stations I am not interested in. There is no option to automatically restart the station I had listened to the previous day. Consider DoubleTwist instead.
