Really nice application

I really like the interface but when the dev put “private p2p” after the name he or she really meant that because I don’t know anyone that uses this unfortunately.

I’ve tired to test out some of the link’s handed out in Discord but they seem to be dead. I’d like to see the ability to add regular radio stations links if possible just for some added functionality.

It’s great, but I do not want to sign in

The reason why I don’t wanna sign in is because I do not want to give away my information to someone that I’m not sure if I trust or not

NOT PRIVATE, DEVS HAVE FULL ACCESS TO USER INFORMATION BUYER BEWARE

The “private” peer-to-peer marketing is a complete falsehood. While I was intoxicated, I foolishly changed my username to a slur. I’m not proud of it, but I was extremely drunk at the time. Regardless, when I changed it, somehow, one of the developers, Lucas, was alerted to the name change and accessed my so-called “private peer-to-peer” radio server. He informed me that if I didn’t change the name immediately, I would be banned. If this were truly peer-to-peer and private, they would never have been alerted to the name changes and would never have been able to send me that message. He deleted the post within a minute as well (I wonder why…). This is a blatant lie on the part of the developers, and I will report this to Apple. To the developers, I implore you: DO NOT market this as private and then be able to view and collect data. That is the antithesis of peer-to-peer, let alone private.

Response from developer

As I explained in my email response to you, I'd like to clarify how Macrowave works since there seems to be confusion about what "peer-to-peer" and "private" mean in this context. Like any P2P system (including torrents), Macrowave uses public trackers to connect peers. We only collect the public-facing metadata necessary for the system to function: your username and station name, which form your shareable URL. This is publicly visible information that anyone can see when you share your link. As I mentioned in my email, we don't monitor or collect your broadcast content. Your audio streams remain private between you and your listeners. We contacted you specifically about your username and station name containing racial slurs – not because we were monitoring your broadcasts, but because this publicly visible information violated our community standards. To be clear: we didn't ban you. We asked you to change the offensive username. Going forward, we're implementing a word filter to prevent this situation. The peer-to-peer architecture means your audio content is never stored on our servers. The "private" in our marketing refers to your broadcast content, not the public metadata required for P2P discovery. This is standard for all P2P systems. I hope this clarifies things. If you have further questions, you're welcome to continue our email conversation.

Ugh

I get the rainbow wheel every time I put an url in

Response from developer

Sorry for the inconvenience. Which URL did you try? Currently only URLs from macrowave.co are supported.

Nice App

It is a very beautiful and cool app and I like the theme. But it would be nice to habe a feature to connect to an internet radio Station.
