FM Radio

Fails to retain settings for sleep timer default and recording. I want to be able to revoke permission to record entirely, but it won't work at all if you do that, and, being completely unnecessary for advertised function, an outrageous overreach on the part of Motorola. If I can't revoke access to the microphone (essential only if I want to record), the product is just broken. A serious bug that makes the product unusable. As to people who don't know the difference between frequency modulation transmission of radio and "streaming", I've got my own pet peeve - almost all of the apps advertised to provide a "radio tuner" don't receive radio at all, much less operate as a tuner, but rely on retransmission of signals via internet. "Radio" refers to radio frequency transmission of signals over the air. "FM radio" refers to a particular modulation technique by which the signal is imposed upon a carrier wave. False advertising and wire fraud.

On a wired connection, this app is great. Lots of stations and the signal is consistently good. It offers different experience than just streaming music through Spotify, Amazon or Google, which is what I do mostly, but love to still be able to enjoy local radio stations. Especially while traveling, you get to hear local radio stations and helps you get a sense of the community and culture surrounding you. Noticed such a big difference between West Coast, Central and East Coast stations.

This app is perfect and taps into your phones actual FM tuner, no internet or data required. Many people don't seem to understand that free radio actually is broadcast over the airwaves! You can set favorites and record music for later. What more can you ask for? There is an option to listen with your phone speaker and not headphones but you probably won't pick up much. It uses your headphone cord as the antenna.
