The problem
Internet radio apps tend to be cluttered, ad-funded and account-gated, and the best stations are buried in a flat list.
Our approach
Start from how people actually listen (a mood, an activity, a place), keep the whole library on the device, and use the system the way iOS intends.
What we built
Focused on listening.
- 29,000+ live stations from the open Radio Browser directory, searchable by mood, genre, decade, language and place
- Favourites, presets and private collections that never leave the device
- Save-the-moment for songs you catch, with notes, sharing and lookups in Apple Music, Spotify and YouTube Music
- System radio alarm (iOS 26), sleep timer with fade-out, and a sound-enhancement chain with a limiter
- Siri and Shortcuts actions, Lock Screen, Control Center and AirPlay controls
The product
Designed screen by screen.
Privacy stance
No account, no ads, no analytics SDKs. The app does not report which stations you play, and its privacy policy lists every network connection it makes.
