Don’t waste your time with this app
Why is this app still being offered for sale? It hasn't been updated since 2018 and quite simply doesn't work with IOS 16. The support page claims comparability with iOS 12! They still try and take your money though! Beware!
Has this been abandoned?
No idea how you get this to work!
Good but needs improvement
Paid for this app after the ongoing failure of Apple to implement radio on the HomePod within the UK. The app works and is a keeper and allows addition of custom streams. 2 faults. It takes 2, sometimes 3, verbal requests for radio to start playing from ‘idle’. i.e when I return home from work or anytime i guess when you leave and return to your home wifi network. Also after switching to a different station Siri will reply “sorry i can't do that” when instructed to raise/lower the volume. It always works on the second attempt.

Subscription model
This might just be the the exact solution I’m after. But sadly (for me), the idea of paying for a subscription to access to free to air radio just doesn’t quite sit right. A once off fee would be much preferred.
It works but the UI seems a bit sloppy
Does what it says but you have to program it to know the voice command. I don’t see the reason for a continuing subscription when the user sets the commands. The radio stations themselves are all over the map on their graphics/logo, giving a cheap and insecure feeling. I asked myself if KEXP was right since the logo looks worse than I can describe.
There are sometimes different versions of the same station, typically different bit rates. The app doesn’t explain this, lending to more confusion and insecurity about selecting a radio station. Otherwise, it does appear to be the only show in town that plays radio stations on my HomePod.
