Radio Radar App Reviews

Hasnt been updated since 2011. No longer useful. Should be removed from the App Store.

Great app! Exactly as described! Thanks.

Cannot listen to stations. Youll be paying for just seeing a map full of stations!! Title is misleading

YES, I read the description and Im not interested in a radio streamer. When I travel I hate having to scan through every station on my car radio to find something I like (especially in large metropolitan areas). This app is exactly what Im looking for. All the poor reviews I read are due to user confusion about the function of the app. This app finds radio stations based on your location. You cannot stream them to your iPhone. That being said, I have a couple of issues that prevent this from a 5 star rating. 1) A local college station is not listed at all (KFSR) even with a 100 mile range enabled. Im sure this is an issue with the database that the info is pulled from. 2) The local brand name is not listed, e.g. The Fox, The Blade, etc ... 3) It would be really nice if stations could be annotated with user info, such as a Favorite rating, and the aforementioned local brand names. I have yet to use it in the wild (outside my hometown), but so far it seems well designed and pretty accurate. Well done and priced nicely!

Great applicaton!!! In future versions, it would be useful to see the ability to select map position other than the current location, i.e., nationwide searching of the database. It would also be nice if the features worked in airplane mode. Thankyou!!!

This app is so amazing that Im writing my first review out of 100+ apps I have! If your a radio geek and visit web sites for looking up or finding radio station info, this is a must have. You will not be dissatisfied! One of the best 99 cent apps I have bought. The interface looks awesome and works just as great too. Thank you!

App is useful. Three requests: (1) Abililty to filter/select more than one format (example-rock&alternative). (2) Add "college" as a format (3) Information about, or link to what song is currently playing.

Traveling somewhere and want to find NPR, a new rock station, or your favorite talk radio? This is the app you need. As the author warned -- THIS DOES NOT STREAM RADIO STATIONS. It is simply a directory of the radio stations you can receive at any particular location. As a side note, if youre curious to figure out what unfamiliar and distant AM or FM station you are picking up on your radio, this is a helpful app. Transmitters up to 200 miles away from the user-selected location can be found. If youre testing out your hi-fi FM or AM radio to pull in distant stations (DXing), this feature is helpful to see if youre on the right track.

Fantastic app! I dont like scanning the radio looking for a classic rock station while traveling and this app finds the stations for me. All I do is tune my car stereo to it now!! Thanks for a great app.

I travel a lot for work. The first thing I do when I get into a rental car is look for a radio station: news, music, whatever. Next comes fun with the "scan" buttons and the distraction of pressing again to lock in a station that sounds interesting while avoiding the checkout booth attendant. Alternatively, I can press through the memory buttons to see what other people have stored... like Russian Roulette for the ears. Anyway, all that is history: a few seconds in Radio Radar and I know exactly where to tune the radio. Works in the hotel room too. TV is too much of a time sink and a distraction when I need to work in the evening but radio works well in the background. When will hotels put decent speakers in their clock radios (OK I digress). If you travel or if you like radio, I cant recommend this app too much. Simple, clean, attractive interface and the new update (from a suggestion made in a review on the store I think) to add sorting is even more convenient. 100% recommended. How did we get by without it?

A+

This app works EXACTLY as described, and does it very well. Its clean interface is pleasant to use, plus the detailed info is invaluable. The search feature is a major bonus. Its unfortunate one ignorant user can drag down the rating of such a well made app. One of my favorite quotes: "Ignorance is only bliss for the ignorant. For everyone else, its aggravating at best." Certainly applies in this case. Kudos to the dev - cant wait for updates.

The title of this app is no way misleading some people are just idiots. This is a great app its one of the apps that makes it impossible for me to use any other phone than iPhone. It is very usefull for traveling. Thanks

Whoever it was that gave the 1-star rating is an idiot. What kind of person buys apps without reading the description first, anyway? App works great and is a good buy!

Works exactly, and I mean exactly as advertised. Finally an app that locates radio stations. Very, very pleased with this application.

I was traveling and was tired of flipping through all the stations to try and find one I liked so I found this app and now I can easily find a station I like! I cant believe I didnt get this app long ago!

As described. An awesome app. I wish it included TV towers as well.

Doesnt work as advertised. Waste of money. I was receiving several stations that didnt even register on the app and some of the stations they showed with strong signals were all static.

I do a lot of business travel and found this app very helpful to find jazz and news/talk stations. It was very intuitively organized and easy to sort by format, which is really helpful. Good value for the money.

Works as advertised and has the best features of the other radio search apps I tried. Could be prettier but it works!!
