About this app

The NextRadio app lets you experience live and local FM radio on your smartphone. Download FREE FM radio on your Android smartphone today!

EMERGENCY LISTENING CAPABILITIES:
NextRadio offers two ways to listen to live, local FM Radio. If your device has the FM receiver chip activated, you will be able to listen to local, terrestrial FM radio which uses less data and saves your battery life compared to streaming. The activated FM chip allows you to listen to NextRadio during times of emergency, working even when cell towers are down. The cord from your headphone or stereo cable act as an antenna to receive local FM radio signals.

It's really good, unfortunately, it's becoming obsolete. It's nothing to do with the devs, and everything to do with enshittification from manufacturers. The app requires both an FM module in your phone, and a 3.5mm headphone jack (acts as an antenna). Phone makers are removing both. This app was really vital for me during and after hurricanes, but my old phone gave up the ghost and I had to "up"grade to a new one. Gonna miss this app and the vital service it provides.

Works fine... sometimes. But it doesn't remember whether I want it to play in the headphones or use the speaker, sometimes even doing one while claiming to do the other. It also doesn't successfully either (a) use the phone settings or (b) remember the app volume settings from last time, which means that it sometimes starts up too loud and then - for some reason - when I go to turn it down, resets the volume to maximum. It also disappears from the lock screen if I pause it, which, ugh.

I have been waiting for this app a long time! The area where I walk the dog is a dead zone and streaming apps only work intermittenly if at all. This works flawlessly. My only negative is the classic radio station can only be found by tuning. It would be nice to have it as a genre. I add the station to my favorites and doesn't save it. I have to tune to find it but I do get it. Great app if you like radio. Changing review to 1 star. No longer works.
