5. Download FREE FM radio on your Android smartphone today!
6. The cord from your headphone or stereo cable act as an antenna to receive local FM radio signals.
1. To do this: 1) DO NOT give it access to your location, and 2) when it asks for your zip code, choose "OTHER" as your country, then it will provide you with a very effective FM radio tuner.Figured out how to make it work.
2. I do hope that someone either takes it over or comes up with a newer, more featured version but hey - the basic function does exactly what it is supposed to do, let me use the FM chip in my phone.I do like the app giving the ability to listen to fm radio in a much simpler way, but there are some issues with this app.
3. Love to hear music but it doesn't have to be MINE, so for me over the air is GREAT! Just would be nice for the app to work as it should.Had a tough time getting this to work, but once i did, it's a great app that really does pull in live FM radio (no streaming).
4. TO GET IT TO WORK, you need to focus on the very basic feature of using it only as a radio tuner.
5. Update - I was able to force it to go to tuner only - I had to turn on airplane mode, deny the app access to my phone.
6. Here's how to make it work : turn off location on your phone and then when it asks you to manually enter your location, change country to 'other'.
7. when it asked for my zip code, turned off airplane mode, let it start searching, turned on airplane mode, and it let me get to the basic tuner.
8. However, it seems that all apps require permissions and have ads these days.At first was really frustrating because the updated version only showed 'network unavailable' and wouldn't let me use the tuner at all.
9. I set it up last night on my S10+, opened it, and inside a minute was scanning through radio stations where I live about 40 miles from a major city.
10. In case you are unfamiliar, listening offline does require corded headphones, because your phone uses the cord as an antenna.
11. Note that this app uses actual radio signals as opposed to mobile data or Wi-Fi, so it only works in phones that have FM radio capabilities.
