Internet Radio Box

As a serious radio listener (60 stations from all over the world on my scan list; typically listen to at least half of them every day), my standards are high. I've been using this app on my iPod for three months, and am completely satisfied with it. Internet Radio Box does what radio fans want it to do: plays livestream radio, allows you to customise station names and order in your playlist, and -- very important -- lets you enter your own raw stream URLs; you're not handcuffed to a preset list of available stations. It handles most stream platforms, including Windows-exclusive ones that even iTunes can't resolve. Yet the interface is easy and intuitive, quick to learn. Nor does it annoy the heck out of you with advertising or social media come-ons. The app itself is very stable. It will crash every once in a long while, usually after a period of intense station-surfing. Just reboot and pick up where you left off. Again: this is rare. If you take radio seriously, this'll set you up.

With access to three big search engines with hundreds of thousands of stations, this is an excellent little player with a lot of great features. I love the fact that there is a recording and export option, as well as a reliable sleep timer and station memory. My only little problem is that the timer option has not worked with the new OS8 on my iphone 4s, but I am presuming this will be fixed in a future update. My OS timer stop has worked well as a workaround. I literally use this app on a daily basis, and well worth the small price tag.

***Please update to iOS 11 !*** Doesn’t work in iOS 11☹️ RadioBox is a great app. It has a huge selection of stations. If the station you want to listen to isn't listed you can use the built-in web browser to go to it and if RadioBox recognizes it as being streamable it will ask if you want to try and play it. If it plays then you can make it a favorite. It's that easy! I do have one request. It would be nice to be able the bookmark websites in the built-in web browser.

The best feature of this app, for me, is that it allows me to put my own custom radio station links into my favorites. (Most apps only allow you to put into your favorites radio stations that the app has preloaded for you.) The only feature I wish could be added is to create a buffer size option. Other than that, this app is up there with the best.

The app says you can store favorites online and offline. HOW??? There is no help I can find to explain. I have 3 devices and am stuck trying to manually enter all custom urls on all three. Terrible. The app also says something about custom wallpaper. I don't see that either. Poorly documented. Poorly supported. Wasted an hour until I finally gave up. I even created a RadioDeck account and that doesn't sync squat. What the heck? Don't say it does something if it doesn't.
