Very good radio app
Fraud!
Apple will not refund it. please assist
Apple stated talk to the developer
Hey, this is one of the best radio apps I’ve seen
Even though it is a great app, Iconfactory should consider the following features:
-The ability to have multiple audio quality settings on one stream.
-The ability to rearrange favorites in any order.
-Custom Icons for custom radio stations.
-Multiple streams and links within 1 custom station.
-Chromecast support.
-Spotify song search support.
-The ability to turn off that sound when you tune into a station.
-A better station discovery system, akin to what you’d find in TuneIn.
-The ability for universal station listings to be crowdsourced.
In the future, you should also consider implementing timed recording and/or time-shifting for pro members.
Please please please make it possible for the Siri shortcut to play the station in the background.
Response from developer
Thanks for the glowing review, we appreciate it. Apple designed Siri Shortcuts the way they did because if they didn't require your device to be unlocked when performing an action, bad actors could do bad things to your device just by speaking to it without your permission. We're afraid it's not possible to perform such actions like play a station without the device being unlocked first, apologies. Siri shortcuts are great however and we'll be exploring more ways to integrate Triode with them. Thanks again!
Totally “free”
Very promising start...
Response from developer
Thanks for your review, we really appreciate it. Triode was just released on Nov 14th, 2019. It's been in development for some time but 1.0 was just released. We have plans for improvements of course but are waiting to gauge demand before we decide on Apple Watch. Supporting 3 platforms simultaneously (TV, mac & iOS) is challenging as it is. Adding Apple watch would further slow development so the demand there has to be pretty high to consider it. All that said we're just getting started so stay tuned and thanks for using Triode.
Great app
Meh
Needs Work
Reading the developer response. Maybe try BBC radio 4. Has much greater detail on Simple Radio. Nothing here.
Response from developer
Triode should most certainly play in the background on your device. If it doesn't I would try deleting the app and doing a fresh re-install. If the station stream supplies program details Triode displays them, you can see this in action in many of the stations included in the Our Picks tab which are pretty complete. If a station doesn't include them we can't display them unfortunately. Hope this helps.
Just what I wanted
One piece of feedback: when I add a radio station via search, it pulls a custom icon, and then I tap “change icon”, I see no way to go back to the stations originally downloaded image. Continuing to hit change icon merely cycles through Triode’s set, and removing/adding the station back to favorites doesn’t seem to retrigger a station artwork fetch.
It would also be neat if I could rename the stations I add to favorites from “our picks” - it feels odd having some stations with title text below their image (ones I’ve added via search) and some without (ones added from our picks).
Response from developer
Some good feedback there, thanks for taking the time to leave those suggestions. We will be adding a way to reset the station artwork in a future update for sure. Will have to think about the ability to re-name the station and how that could potentially confuse users. Can't say for sure if this will happen but will put it on the list to consider. Thanks so much.
