Broadcasts for Positive User Reviews
✓ Video support!What could possibly go wrong if you add video support!?.Version: 1.3.5
✓ Unable to remember window sizeGreat app and functions well. Yet I believe ever since the redesign on version 2.2, the mac app seems unable to remember its window size on relaunch. Not a big problem but hopefully it can be fixed..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Fantastic appFantastic app, fantastic developer. The app syncs very well across my different devices. I am deleting a few apps i had before now which are not as functional as this. Did i say no subscription fees too & its also affordable? Thanks Steve. Update: 8/6/23 - Still enjoying this app like crazy and use it everyday, i cant fault anything about the app, well done dev..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Perfect!!Easy to use, able to add own stations works great with CarPlay. Best I’ve used & very reasonably priced. Love it!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ At last!I have wanted an easy-to-use radio player for my Mac for ages. Tried a couple of free ones with disappointing results - happy to pay for this one. Excellent so far. Only improvement would be a programme guide and "what's playing" - but not a criticism only a suggestion..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Needs watch complicationGreat radio app - would be even better with a watch complication.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Simple, easy to useThis Just Works(TM) the way streaming radio apps should work. CarPlay integration is ace. No more cruddy per-station apps, Broadcasts has them all in one place with high performance, simple UI, and no spam or bad ads..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Great AppA fun app to use. Huge number of stations available from around the world which you keep in 'Collections' making it easy to use..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Enable Searching by Genre / KeywordGreat app! Please allow me to search by a keyword or genre (e.g. “K-pop” or “EDM”) instead of Country; the search results could be grouped by country. This will enable me to quickly find new stations globally without having to search each country separately. Love your @stroughtonsmith feed..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Love itUse it regularly, really happy that it wasn't a subscription. Thank you to the developer..Version: 3.0.5
✓ Great streaming radio app!This app is so simple and uncluttered that it is a joy to use compared to some of the commercial apps that are all junked up. The small things that would push this to five-stars are features like drag to reorder collections or streams, and small touches that would polish this baby up..Version: 3.0.5
✓ Great Radio Streaming AppGreat radio streaming app. I love that it also works on the Apple Watch..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Great selection of stations - does exactly what's neededExactly the solution I was looking for - great list of stations and easy to use. Status Bar icon for quick access would make it perfect..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Best radio appI’ve tried them all and this is the best. Well worth the small amount of money to upgrade to unlimited presets. Works great with CarPlay. Lets you search stations or add any stream you want manually and choose a station logo. With the loss of BBC on Radioplayer this is the perfect replacement only much better!.Version: 3.1
✓ Huge Advantage over Music AppStreaming audio from non Apple Music sources seems to be an afterthought for Apple's Music app. But doing so is all that Broadcast does. At one point Apple's Music app stopped showing track information on streams which was the final straw for me. Broadcasts is the only app I've paid for in years. It is well worth the small price..Version: 3.2
✓ Simple but smartIf you want to listen to internet radio, this app is a great choice – tiny download, straightforward UI, and integrates well into iOS. You get Irish stations for free so you can try out the app, but for a small price you can add any stations you want. Recommended! (Also: RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta FTW!).Version: 1.1.3
✓ Very pleasedFound every station I was looking for and reception is good.Version: 3.3.4
✓ Good price for Mac and iOSFor the money you can have this on mac, iphone and iPad, it does need basic 'configuring' for some more obscure/elusive radio stations (finding the stream) but there's also plenty of pre-chosen stations to choose from. For me it’s better value than MyTuner which I also have and more stable than plenty of others I have tried..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Excellent radio appWhat an excellent little app. Been looking for a decent internet radio app for ages and this one ticks every box for me. I tried the free version and within a few minutes paid my $8 for the full version. I always wanted the ability to save stations, but to be able to categorise them as well is a bonus. And if the station doesn’t pop up in the Browse list, stations can be saved wth the station’s stream url. Something I didn’t expect was syncing my saved stations via iCloud to my Macbook Air and iPhone app. Every change on one syncs immediately across all devices. I love it. All these are features that Apple Music strangely doesn’t allow. Another major plus for me is the ability to substitute the sometimes dodgy artwork with quality images off the web. These look great in the nicely designed Mac mini player and on the phone. And finally the inclusion of Airplay sealed the deal. For me this is the best radio app I’ve found and highly recommend the reasonably priced paid version..Version: 3.1
✓ Great appI love this app - easy access to any radio station world-wide, and across all devices. Perfect!.Version: 1.3.6
✓ Love ItReminds me of tuning into radio sations (in this case even around the world) and listning to the great music and variety I don't even have to think about. It just works - no fluff. Being able to go from device to device and Broadcasts synching favs is a BIG plus..Version: 3.2
✓ Privacy and simplicity!Most of the radio apps on the AppStore are bloat ware using 3rd party analytics. This one is just about right, uses iCloud for syncing and the privacy policy is clear. Great job!.Version: 1.3.6
✓ Great appGreat app and easy to use!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Excellent appLove this - very simple, straightforward - and it works so well. Love the huge search of international stations..Version: 3.0.2
✓ STOP ASKING ME TO REVIEW YOUR APPI ALREADY DID!.Version: 2.0.2
✓ The Radio App I've Been Waiting ForBroadcasts is a new app that is steadily and rapidly improving and adding features (e.g., the recent directory of stations addition), but already I'm won over from a well-known competitor's legacy app that I've never loved. Broadcast: a simple, low cost radio app on both iOS and Mac OS X that syncs well. I'd love to see the ability to export and import station lists (including descriptions and icons) so that I could evangelize the app to my friends and family and make it dirt simple for them to add the app and get started. Finding which radio stations are the "best" or are "stations in my areas of listening interest" amongst the multitude of stations in the USA and worldwide is likely still overwhelming for new users, so any feature that would help could be useful. Kudos to the developer..Version: 1.2
✓ Great appThis is the best radio app on Mac/iOS. Its easy to add your preferred stations to your favourites for quick access. And the streaming capabilty is fantastic..Version: 3.1
✓ Great option to directly add audio feeds by URLI appreciate the option to directly add audio feeds by URL, and customize their icons, and categorize them. Well done!.Version: 1.3.7
✓ Dr.l.j.Great station..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Perfect radio appThis is such a great app. It does one thing and it does it well - plays the radio! It's well designed, fits in nicely with other Mac Apps and just works! The upgrade for unlimited saved stations is a bargain and a great way to support this lovely app..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Show other available stationsI think you would get a lot more in app purchases if you could show what other channels are available other than the preset Irish stations.Version: 1.1.3
✓ ReliableInternet radio made simple..Version: 1.3
✓ Slick and solidNicest streaming radio app I’ve ever used. Get rid of all those other pieces of bloatware you’ve used up until now..Version: 1.3.6
✓ Great app, works on all Apple ecosystemThis app is great for radio listeners. It syncs on all of your Apple devices (MacOS and iOS) and you pay just for once. Steve is a very active developer and makes it better with every release. Looking forward to V2..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Hands Down -- The BestDon't look any further -- this is it..Version: 3.2
✓ Exactly what you needClean, simple but also very quick and effective at listening to stations from multiple continents, with powerful options (don’t like any station icon - no problem, change it). I’ve tried probably a dozen similar highly rated apps and this one is best by far. Great work!.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Superb. The best by far.I've had a love / hate relationship with tuners to the extent that I stopped using them. Thought I'd try Broadcasts. It's excellent. A pleasing and efficient interface; zips to new stations instantly (others often just hung); amazing worldwide coverage. 5 stations for free or not, the developer deserves payment simply for producing such a delightful and useful app..Version: 3.2
✓ Quite like this, but...Any chance of a mini player, or some small pop-out window for a Mac? The smallest it will reduce to is still about six times too big..Version: 2.2.8
✓ Simple, fast, no bs!Great app, no problem and is light and easy to us. Can have my favourites playing in seconds. Nice to see an app not using a subs model, and purchase outright price is good.Version: 3.1
✓ Great AppRespect for the country change..Version: 2.2.6
✓ Perfect radio appI lobe it.Version: 3.2
✓ Great for podcast streamingWorks perfectly for streaming ATP or relayFM live stream podcasts and has shortcuts!.Version: 1.3.6
✓ It works Perfectly!It is a simple app, no ads, no data tracking and It works!! Love it! 100% Recomended!.Version: 3.2
✓ Full marks for the AppleScript supportI have a bluetooth speaker connected to my iMac. With a LauncherAgent and an AppleScript, the Broadcasts app starts automatically when the speaker is turned on. With iOS shortcuts and some 'osascript' over SSH commands I can change the station from my phone, query the currently playing station or the list of stations avaiable. A nitpick is that when adding stations manually, the picture logo can only be chosen from the Photos app. Normally I just download the logo to desktop, no need to import it in the Photos app..Version: 2.1.1
✓ DJ JOSHThankyou.Version: 1.3.8
✓ Works like a charm.Very easy to setup and use. Included all the major station presets for my country (New Zealand). Most importantly, it synced seamlessly with all my devices. I had an issue with rating requests hijacking my mac, but tthe developer assured me it was an OS issue. As the developer has a very good reputation, I have no reason to doubt him. The problem fixed itself after a reset..Version: 1.3.5
✓ TitleReview.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Better than the rest.Thanks for this simple and easy to use app. If you just want radio stations without all the bulk and ads of Tune In this is the app for you. Easy to use and customize. Spend the $4.99. Well worth it..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Another native appI like native apps, because they consume less space on disk and use less RAM when running. This one is no exception :) I have noticed that sometimes radio stream stops and doesn't resume (maybe it's server side problem). And if you could close main window without stopping the music (like iTunes) – it would be great..Version: 1.3.7
✓ Works simply and elegantlyI've tried a couple of other internet radio apps and this is the first that has had the combination I was looking for: good directory plus easy station additon via stream URL; syncing between Mac, iPhone and Apple TV; and an interface that looks Apple instead of terrible..Version: 1.3.8
✓ Works on everythingIt’s The App I listen to radio on, works with iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch and CarPlay..Version: 1.3.6
✓ Solid Radio AppI don't listen to much radio, but I have a few favorite stations - this app is perfect for me - I have been able to listen to my favorite college radio stations in a single location. Great. Work..Version: 1.3
✓ A simple and uncluttered radio appBroadcasts is exactly what I’ve wanted for so long: a simple radio app with no adverts and no other junk, that I can add a custom feed to, shows the ‘now playing’ data properly, and works with shortcuts, Apple Watch, and CarPlay. iPad, Mac, and Apple TV support is all a bonus. Thanks for making this!.Version: 1.3.3
✓ PerfectPlease don't change this app too much, in terms of usability. If you're going to keep adding features, then okay, but the simplicity of this radio app is what makes it PERFECT..Version: 1.3.5
✓ Radio App I always wantedI can't say how thankful I am for a clean, easy to use, cross Apple platform radio app. I'm a German living in the US, and desperately miss home radio. THANK YOU for making this app!.Version: 3.1
✓ Just what I was looking forWith the current lockdown I've been listening to a lot more music working from home, and not owning an actual radio I wanted to find a nicely designed Mac app that could handle Internet radio streaming, and this is just the ticket. It has a lot of built in stations, but you can also define your own if you have a streaming link (m3u), and customise the name and logo. Best of all your stations sync via iCloud to iPhone. I'd love the ability to run it from the Mac menu bar, but otherwise it's a really solid little app..Version: 1.2.3
✓ I use it everywhereThe best radio app I’ve used. It works and always synced on the car, the iPhone, the iPad and the mac. I can add my own icons for each station and thus categorize the stations into meaningful collections. I only dream about a fading feature when you change stations. 🎉💥B✨R✨A✨V✨O✨!🚀😎 for your work..Version: 2.0.2
✓ The perfect radio appThis is the app I have been searching for. A simple radio stream player, with a familiar Apple interface and the ability to sort / store stations. Excellent!.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Finally, a simple radio with a great interfaceGreat to finally find this app, such a simple elegant interface in a sea of pretty average apps, and it actually has the stations that I listen to. Been thru sooo many apps that look fantastic but have a hugely limited selectoin of stations, so thank you!.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Imperfect, but best option?Best live radio player I've found. I like that my favorite stations can be clumped into collections and shared across devices. Good built-in browser for finding most stations. Basic customization options available (you can add any stream URL and edit station name and image.) Supports Apple CarPlay. A few minor improvements that would bump it to a 5-star rating: - Keyboard support for volume changes on desktop app - "Shuffle" option to pick a random station from my collection - Mini-player for desktop app - Additional metadata options for stations (keep "name" as default, but give nerds the option to add callsign & frequency, location, stream bitrate/codec, rating, tags... bonus points for a map view) - Documentation (only option on help menu is "Contact Support..." email link).Version: 3.0.1
✓ Great appThis has easily become my favourite radio streaming app. It works beautifully on the iPhone and also has a Apple Watch app..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Cannot recommend this enoughThis app is incredible - adding and listening to stations is incredibly easy, it's great design wise and I love the fact that it's optimised for iPad. I can't necessarily pay at the moment, but if I could I would happily purchase the full version 🥰.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Just worksWorks everytime. Only issue is Siri and Home do not seem to known that Broadcasts is available, so won't 'play' from a voice command as far as I know. But other than that, great little app syncing my stations across devices without needing to think about it.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Fast developer supportI ran into an issue and reached out on Twitter, the developer quickly responded and told me a good work around.Version: 1.3
✓ Definately worth a fiverI was looking for an alternative to a certain other radio app which is only available for the ipad and windows. I thought i'd give this a try, I only need four stations so i didn't need to buy the full version but it works so well I reckoned the developer deserves it. Nice tidy wee app. Thanks.Version: 2.1
✓ One of the bestSeriously, I can't get any real work done without music and, as an internet radio junkie, I can just keep throwing stations at this app, arranging them as I like, and then listening to whatever suits my mood! For me, this is quite literally a productivity application that also happens to be an excellent music platform too..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Love it! Works across all my Apple devicesGreat little app. Even works with Apple carplay..Version: 3.1
✓ Nice, clean & stableNice app. The minus star is because the available stations are only about 10 (Irish). Hopefully more will be added..Version: 1.3.8
✓ One tiny addition and it would be perectionThanks for this - just what we all needed. It's just great. One tiny feature would make it perfect for me - and that is a button in the menu bar to bring up the miniplayer. It would be super useful to just have it there to quickly bring it up and pause the music. Oh and a really clear label saying the wqualiuty of the stream when loads are available in a list would be ace too..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Awesome UI, smooth and simple.While the star rating is rather low, and the other review you see shown here claims the app to be a “total waste of money” - Broadcasts is just about as perfect as a radio app can be. It has a gorgeous UI that makes sure it does it’s singular purpose job as well as it possibly can. While the default Irish radio stations are useless to most involved, after purchasing the “pro” tier, the user is given access to thousands of curated stations from practically every country across the globe. It gives you worldwide radio access in a gorgeous package. While the other review here mentions that there are “no other stations included”, it seems he didn’t even bother to use the app as there are THOUSANDS of stations. Further, you can even add your own station via a URL, and upload your own custom station art to go along with it. It is the perfect radio app and does it’s purpose with flying colours. Highly recommend..Version: 1.2
✓ Great way to have WWOZ on Apple TV and CarplayGreat app, easy to set up a collection of stations. I love it mostly for addressing missing features from the WWOZ app..Version: 1.3.5
✓ Almost perfectThis is by far the best radio streaming app available on the App Store. And believe me.. I’ve tried them all! I do have a couple of suggestions of minor changes that I think would make it even better (mainly affecting the iOS version but nice on others where applicable): Option to force station icon rather than album art of current song Show station name under the currently playing song name in the iOS player window Ability to set a default collection view on startup, especially handy on CarPlay. On CarPlay it’d be great if when tapping on a station, instead of it going into the “now playing” it just stays on the list of stations..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Lovely simple appMy use is on an iPad Pro 12.9. The app has no learning curve. It looks good. It just works. There are thousands of free internet stations. This app separates them by country and then lists the stations alphabetically. There are two problems I see with long lists of Internet radio stations. The first is that there are many you might like but finding them in the thousands of offerings is a major task. Ideally one could sort the list by genre across countries though I can see the complexity of the task. It would be interesting if people could generate and share their collections. Someone with more fortitude than I might have put together a great custom list of 40s, 50s, 60s classical jazz stations from around the world. Can we share them? The other problem with Internet radio is the various stations broadcast at different bit rates. It would be useful I think if this info can be included in the list of stations..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Great updateEven better with the latest update. Looking forward to the iOS update too..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Easy to use Good choice of Radio StationsGood app. Find the large selection of station very good Covering world wide radio stations..Version: 3.1
✓ What all apps should beLight weight. Not a heavy data mining machine that makes the users jump through hoops to use it, or feel like their constantly being used. Not overly complex. Just right, with a responsive developer who has some respect for users. We need more like this..Version: 1.3.8
✓ GreatThis is a Great App. One of my favorite app on my Apple ecosystem.Version: 1.3.8
✓ Great simple app that I can add custom URLs.Look forward to testing this in carplay. I used audial before it has become a little unstable of late..Version: 3.0.5
✓ Excellent Internet Radio AppThis developer never disappoints and it shows especially in this app which delivers one of the closest-to-native experiences I've seen in any third-party app. It's simple and does what is advertised extremely well. It takes full advantage the current APIs on both macOS and iOS/iPadOS. Finally have a clean way to listen to my favorite stations outside of a web browswer..Version: 1.3.5
✓ Fantastic fantastic appI've wanted a decent FM radio on my iPad and Mac for ages!.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Surpassed by NONE OTHER--UPDATE SYNCING NOW AVAILABLE!!This is the best by far online radio app for iPhone and Mac! Ability to add personal stations is the clincher for me and it always works. Not one complaint save for syncing between apps...if that happens? It is the BEST app out there. ADDED WITH LAST UPDATE on 6/3/21!!! I am done with all the others, Broadcasts 2 is the way to go..Version: 2.1
✓ Amazing.Awesome to listen to my favorite live podcasts on my mac in an app instead of in Safari..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Best Internet Radio PlayerLight simple available across Apple's ecosystem. AppleScript and Shortcuts support. My only grip is that there isn't a way to get a list of my stations and global stations lists, search via shortcuts apps. Would also like command-line support but that’s not as important. Also I think a single purchasing should include macOS, iPhone, iPadOS..Version: 3.1
✓ Finally custom stationsI love the ability to add my own radio stations, customize the icons and have it instantly sync between macOS/iOS and have easy access in CarPlay. Very Happy!!!!!.Version: 2.0.2
