### 1/5 — Not A Real Radio App!

*2024-11-18, version 1.1*

Just gives you a Preview Description and No Play Button! Uninstall!

### 1/5 — Feeds don't play

*2023-12-07, version 1.1*

The feeds have not been maintained. Only found one feed that actually appears to work. Abandoned by the developer?

### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work at all

*2021-02-16*

Time wasted.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2017-01-26, version 1.1*

Some stations don't work or switch between Japanese and English or are just English but the stations are just awesome! I've had to look up every song I've heard so far on the current station because they've all been so good, I also love how one song is pop and the other is a hard core mosh pit song, the way it switches is so nice!!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2015-04-02, version 1.0*

I wanted something where I could just have Japanese conversation going on while I do other things for listening comprehension and I've only had the app for a few minutes but it works wonderfully so I had to leave a review.  Granted it is more music stations at first glance but there are a few Japanese talk stations. The one I have on now as I write this, they are talking about Disney : )

Edit: Quite a few of the music stations don't work or the music that does play is not Japanese.  I still like the one station I'm using for learning.  Still giving it 5 stars because it has what I wanted.
