Something not working, or an idea? Write to nicolaijepsen@outlook.com. Please say whether you use the Mac or iPhone app, and the station's name if it's about a station.

Getting started

Mac: click the settings icon on the radio and open Find Stations. Search by name, country or genre, listen to a preview, then give the station a frequency on your dial. Right-click a preset button to put the station you're tuned to on it.

iPhone: tap the station strip under the dial to open the menu, then Find. Hold a preset button on the radio to set or clear it.

Common questions

Is 98.4 a real frequency for this station?

No. The dial is your own FM band: you choose where each station sits. The numbers are labels, not real broadcast frequencies.

A station won't play

Stations come and go, and some go offline for a while. The strip shows "No signal" when a station can't be reached. Try again later, or find another stream for it in Find. Stations come from the community directory radio-browser.info, which checks them regularly.

Why did the radio switch itself off?

If the station has had no signal for 3 minutes (for example after losing the internet connection), the radio switches off so it doesn't hiss and use battery all day. Static between stations never switches it off.

Why is there no pause or rewind?

It's live radio. Switching off stops the stream; switching on again rejoins it live.

How do I change the volume on iPhone?

With the phone's volume buttons, Control Center or your headphones.

How do I move my stations to another device?

On the Mac, choose Export Dial… in the stations window; on iPhone, share it from Dials. Send the file by AirDrop, Mail or Files and open it on the other device.

Why does the radio look darker at night?

When your iPhone is in Dark Mode, the radio dims and its dial glows amber, like a valve radio in a dark room. You can turn this off in Settings → Night Glow (on the Mac: Preferences → Night glow).
