Ratings and Reviews
Finally an Apple Watch streaming app that works
I’ve tried all sorts to have a set up where I can go out for walks and exercise and just take my cellular Apple Watch with me and leave my iPhone at home. The others have been hit and miss, with the apps frequently relying on the iPhone being nearby to work, or when entering the apps through the Apple Watch, only being able to be played on the iPhone loudspeaker, with absolutely no option to send the audio to the Bluetooth headphones connected to the Apple Watch. This dedicated Streamlets streaming radio app has sorted all of that out in a heartbeat and now I can get consistent radio on my Apple Watch when I decide to leave my iPhone at home. It was well worth the money and I’d have paid considerably more for it. Thank you 🙂
Best Radio App for Apple Watch
Wanted an app for my cellular Apple Watch, which would allow me to listen to the radio without my iPhone while I’m out running. This is quite simply the best radio app for this. At 99p, it’s an absolute steal and totally out performs TuneIn etc, who charge so much more money for a service that isn’t as good as this. Has all the stations I listen to and many more. Great job! 👍🏼
Developer Response ,
Thank you for taking time to review the App. Happy running and listening!
Amazing when set up & great idea
How this isn’t a standard Apple Watch feature is quite shocking. Always wanted something like this on my watch for when I didn’t bring my phone or it been charging.
The speaker on the watch isn’t amazing but it’s good enough to listen to. App isn’t expensive and works great.
But one thing that lets it down is the interface. Firstly you would think pressing on the volume slider (circle) would mute especially as both times I’ve used it so far the volume was so high. And lower the volume is flawed, doesn’t move smoothly. Judders back up when lowering the volume.
And why is United Kingdom (I live in the UK) either at the top or bottom? It’s halfway down and although most the Countries are in alphabetical order. Seems to be listed under Great Britain it seems.
And finding stations is so cumbersome as using the crown is slow and swiping not much faster. But get it set up and it’s amazing.
