Getting worse. New update took away my ability to pause or rewind certain stations when I miss something. It also restarts streams instead of pausing when I use Siri or take out ear buds for a moment... dumb. Can’t seem to be able to record stations anymore either. No more functionality than a 1950s radio now, so what’s the point? Navigation to favorites is now getting overly complicated. If I press a button that says “favorites” I want to be taken to “favorites” and not another sub menu that requires further navigation to get to the actual Favorites. If you want good, intuitive, simple navigation, use car-mode all the time. Who cares if it isn’t as pretty, working good is better than looking good. classic case of app developers reinventing the wheel as a trapezoid... the 4 year app old version on my backup phone is far superior to this app now

Annoying!! Loses radio feed. I record my favorite morning show because they have 15 minutes of break for every 20 minutes of show. I will start tune in recording when I wake in the morning. When I get in the car to leave, it only lets me go back 30 minutes or so even though it has recorded much more. If I lose the station (transitioning from WiFi to 3G taking more than a few seconds, for example), the station shuts off, stopping recording. You have a choice at this point. Listen to what you recorded so far or reconnect and listen live with no way to go back in time. Why can’t you start playback of live radio from the start of recording while continuing to record? Why can’t you continue recording when you lose the station and reconnect? These are tremendously annoying oversights.

Changing from 4 to 5 Stars Customer Service. I gave this app a 1 Star at first then 4, now updating to 5 stars because I didn’t have my TuneIn Pro features like recording options and ad free service (not referring to the local station commercials which TuneIn doesn’t have any control over). Case was escalated and Patrick stepped in and help resolved the issue, I was using the wrong email to log in (error on my side). Then I kept getting pre-rolled ads only on certain stations, so I emailed Patrick again and sent screen videos of the stations with the pre-roll ads and he discovered these ads where coming directly from the broadcaster and not added by TuneIn. So these pre-ads are beyond TuneIn control, updating to 5 Stars thanks to Patrick customer service. Thanks again Patrick.

TuneIn Radio Pro Stopped Working on iOS 9.3.6 — a "Classic iPad" :). The app worked flawlessly for YEARS... until the latest (June 2022) update, which only allows to access Recordings... and no access to Home, Favorites, Browse & Search. I won't uninstall it as i've learned from experience from Apple & other developers that their newer updates cutoff or bump-out older iOS devices. Note that TuneIn Radio Pro has run 12-15 hrs per day 6-7 days a week for 5-7 years and the only app that i've run this much, this long and on one device... it breaks the loyalty record from any device or website running on much faster, fancier tablets, dumb/smartphones, laptops, desktop pcs., etc. Fix iit ... as TuneIn Pro deserves a 5+ rating

Awful sports broadcast quality and excessive advertising. I can’t count the chronic, ongoing, repeated episodes where live sports event plays are repeated, often 3 or 4 or more times, hearing and rehearing the same few seconds of some game, while I know the live game has continued without any way to get past the repeated buffering errors. And then there are the over-the-limit advertisements, the same ads over and over and even when I change news channels - literally inescapable at times, seemingly continuously - thank heavens for the foreign channels. And this is PREMIUM service. Is there an alternative news source that can be paid without endless advertising? I deeply dislike TuneIn.

Ads and Commercials in TuneIn PRO. I used to love TuneIn because it centralizes all of the digital radio stations that I have, which then, prevents me from having to download multiple apps for each station that I want to listen to. So, I was thrilled to find that they offer the Pro version that does not have the visual ads and the pre-roll commercials (based on their app description as of May 16, 2023). And I had been enjoying TuneIn even more because of this. Yet, lately, what do I find when I open the app, or when I select a station (as of May 16, 2023 too)? Yes, at times, the visual ads (certain shows and etc), and lately, the pre-roll commercial too (Ashley furniture and etc.), which defeats the purpose of purchasing the Pro version. Perhaps, the Pro version still has less ads and commercials compared to the Free version. But, at this point, I start wondering why should one purchases the Pro version if we do not see the feature that makes the Pro version different from the Free version. I do not know if this is a false advertisement or just a bug, but this is clearly an issue that needs to be fixed.

Buffering is terrible-can’t recommend. Edited review August 2019: This has been my favorite music app for years - I had to take away all the stars - all of a sudden, the buffering is SO BAD it’s unusable. My internet connection hasn’t changed, and other streaming apps work fine, so it must be TuneIn. I wonder if Pro users are being throttled down to pressure us into buying premium?? I can’t recommend TuneIn until/unless they fix this! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Previous Review: In my experience, TuneIn has improved tremendously since I first started using it. It used to buffer and crash constantly; now it seldom does. I favor it to listen to small university jazz stations with small broadcast range (even my local ones!) - I couldn't enjoy them otherwise. It's also handy to listen to my favorite NPR shows when I'm traveling. I haven't used some features, like recording, since I use podcasts to catch up on my favorite shows. I also usually listen to public radio so ads aren't much of a problem for me. My rating may be higher than most because I haven't used some features.

Love TuneIn. I have been a steady TuneIn user for years and compliment the organization for its commitment to providing the best radio and podcast coverage that I have been able to find and enjoy. I am an NPR and news junkie and one could not find a better host than TuneIn...in an instant I can listen to NPR here in San Francisco or switch to WWNO in New Orleans or WGBH in Boston or if I prefer can listen to CNN or MSNBC live. And when traveling I can instantly tune into local NPR and/or local stations whether is the USA or traveling internationally. Simply put they are the best thing that has happened to radios since the transistor radio.

What a terrible shame!. I loved my iTunes Pro. I listen to just one station, Family Radio. I’m realizing that it must have been the last update that changed things. I no longer have the “RECORD” option. I needed it and I relied on it frequently. What makes me feel angry is that they did this without notice I was one the first to buy iTunes Pro. There was a special offer and loving it as much as I did, I upgraded to the “Pro”. After that I had many interruptions, usually either just before the weekend or during the week end. At times it took a long time to get back going, until a really nice person told me how to fix the broken app, which is what was happening. For many years I had no problems until now. I really need the Record feature, I hope they will see the error they made and give us back what we paid for. Sincerely, Mrs. Patricia C. Rohan

iOS 13 Volume Control Defect. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THE VOLUME BAR DEFECT?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Your latest updated today causes the volume control bar to continuously show after adjustment when playing back via AirPods. It never goes away. You have to lock phone or quit app and then it disappears as it should. Way to test the app before publishing it. 🙄 If you have your AirPods connected and you’ve used another app for playback before opening TuneIn, when starting a stream in this app, the playback happens via the iPhone speaker rather than the AirPods. Fix this. Everything else knows it should pipe via AirPods, but your app apparently doesn’t. Stop deleting negative reviews until you actually fix the issues!!! If you’re listening to music live and you take a call, the music will continue to cache in the background so that when you get off the call the music starts playing again where it left off. Problem is that after a bit of it playing like that, it’ll skip forward to the current live stream point and lose all the cached playback. I listen in AirPods so I don’t know if that’s playing a part in this, but it does it on cellular or WiFi, it doesn’t matter the connection, but it’s really annoying and needs to be fixed like ASAP.

Scam alert!. I bought the pro version of this app already. I’m positive of that. I didn’t want to but I did it so I would at least have it and that’d be the end of it. However, now they’re charging a 10 dollar subscription on top of that? I get real sick of these app developers milking the users for every dime they can and this is a flagrant example of that right here. I will never ever pay another dime for this since I already paid for the pro app. I just don’t think that this is fair at all and we’ll see if this review goes up because they don’t usually allow reviews that are critical of the app, which that alone is nonsense. Sigh I just want a good app that isn’t gong to become a monthly payment for me. I just do not want that becoming another thing weighing down my bank account. If it were a one time payment and you own it like I had thought, then we’d be fine but clearly they milling the users dry.

Once a great Radio app... not anymore. I’ve been using TuneIn Pro for many years and always enjoyed how well it worked, how terrific it’s recording function performed, how it let me reliably pause a broadcast and then continue it. Well unfortunately that high level of application quality has deteriorated with the past updates - so much, that It’s time to switch. There are two issues which cause my one star rating - both have been reported to TuneIn support and are being ignored (9+ months not fixed): Despite having the Pro version I am being entertained with a pop up screen asking me to subscribe... despite having clicked so many times to decline, the screen continues to come back. And then the pause function, which in the past reliably recorded the broadcast now often just drops the recording and starts the station fresh - that happens despite available storage space.

App believes I’m not connected to Internet. I purchased TuneIn a LONG time ago. It may have been 50 cents on sale. It's been that long. So I have seen this product evolve to what it is now. Update: TuneIn is definitely much better than it has been in many years But there is a nagging bug that continues to frustrate me. It thinks I am offline! This strictly happens on Cellular data connections. Like many bugs, it happens once in a while. I will walk out of my house to exercise while listening to music and most of the times, the handoff to cellular data is seamless. But about once a week, it will not work. The home screen says “Browse not available while offline.. Please connect to the Internet”. The Favorites says “Request failed: forbidden (403)”. Closed the app. Reinstalled. Updated. Still behaves the same. Only solution is to reboot the phone which is a nuisance. Shouldnt have to reboot my phone because this app misbehaves. I already contacted support and they basically said if works after reboot it is fine. What?? Please do something about this. I am sure i am not the only one with issue. iPhone 11. iOS 13.5. Tunein 18.5

Rewind and FF not available. Paid for the PRO version and used this app everyday Monday-Friday for years. Loved the fact that I could pause it when listening to live radio if I received a phone call. Before this update I was able to rewind or fast forward after pausing and letting it buffer a little. Now that ability is no longer available. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! Really hope you bring back those controls instead of the “scan” button that just skips thru different radio stations based off the content you are listening to. Please fix this. Thanks

Always Updating. Excellent! Of all my apps.(and I have way too many) This Dev. has updated his app in an attempt to keep things fresh and new with more updates than any other app. I own. Now that says a lot about the Devs. intentions. That being said I don't understand the complaints. This is the best music app I have, and I own several. The customer service is second to none so rather than slam someone's hard earned work, which he/she obviously cares deeply about, why not drop a line to them first? Rather than immediately posting negs? I can appreciate it and many have it coming, but not this Dev. I know all of you have or had apps. that the Devs could care less about. They post it, sell it, and abandon it. Take the money and run, and there's more of them than people who truly care. That's why I felt compelled to post, because this one is one that really cares about the product. There aren't a lot and I hate to see someone that puts their whole into the product become grouped in with the money grabbers. Take Care.... UPDATE: Well, as they say all good things come to an end. I hated to see this app go the route of the subscription. This was and continues to be a great app, and the developers have been improving this app since it’s inception.

Dishonest sneaky liars. I bought this app years ago when it was useful. For an extra amount I bought a one time pro upgrade that let me make recordings. The last time I got a new phone and updated the app apparently I was moved to a different pro version that charges 9.99 per month. Once upon a time you could listen to a decent number of radio stations. I suppose the iHeart companies forced most stations on their app so tough luck TuneIn, but it’s really low down to trick long time customers into something they never wanted. Also shame on Apple. I just discovered this reoccurring charge on my card. Apple should be emailing me my subscriptions each month. Of course if Tim Cook is comfortable with using the equivalent of slave labor from Asia, I doubt he cares that a company is using the Apple ecosystem to rip off senior citizens. Beware of purchasing this app.

Error message on FAVORITES and BROWSE pages. I have loved Tune-in Pro for years, but ever since last week, my FAVORITE and BROWSE pages are completely blank, displaying only the message, “An error occurred, please try later!” I have been in touch with a very kind person on the support staff and tried all recommendations, to no avail. I can no longer log in or out because the settings button is gone, and I’m nervous that if I delete the app from my phone and reload it, it might not recognize my password or might corrupt the app on my iPad (which is still working normally). Has anyone else run into this problem? Any suggestions? I love the app but I appear to be at an impasse. UPDATE: I deleted and reloaded the app, discovering in the process that one of my FAVORITES, Classic FM, is no longer being offered through Tune-In, though the icon was still visible. My guess is that the app couldn’t reconcile the contradiction (a station there but not there) and did a little freak out. My favorite app is working again. Yippee!

Indispensable except.... My favorite radio app because I can get the stations and podcasts I want all in one app. It remembers my sign in and saves me from the inconvenience of having to log in repeatedly like other radio apps do. I have been a user for several years now and there is one BIG bug that continues through version to version. This app has no buffer. When the signal (WiFi mostly) gets weak, the app goes into a repeat loop and gets stuck there. If I’m doing chores in the yard and move in and out of range for just a few seconds, the content gets stuck in a 10 second or so loop. I have to quit the program and restart it to restore the stream. It’s the ONLY audio app I have that does this Fix this problem and you will have a world-class app. Please.

Wi-Fi problem AGAIN. I gave been using this app for a long time. (decade?). Every sipo often an update comes out that prevents my use. The latest is now preventing me from accessing content unless I allow use of cellular data. I have paid a fee at one time to use the Pro version. I do not see why I should allow access to cellular data when my home WiFi network passes my ISP's speed tests. I most often use the app at home. If I am away from home I MAY use cellular data if necessary. However, I should have the choice. I do not want the service to mandate that I use my cellular data because they want me to. I do not have unlimited data. I do nor need it normally. TUNE-IN please restore my ability to use the service through WiFi and make sure future updates do not cause me to lose this ability again. Three times (at least) is demonstrating more patience then some thing should be granted to such repetition on this issue. Potential users: Think carefully about tjis issue and whether you want to be forced to use cell data all the tine to use this service. What will make me happy? Tunein fix the issue and make sure you are not playing info gathering games. As I understand here are other services available. Have I submitted a complaint to customer service from within the app? yes on more than one ocassion.

Devoted listener to TuneIn pro. A feature that I would REALLY like to see added as an option in Tune-In settings is the ability to chose "anchored browsing" or "anchored scanning" when scanning down through my Favorites list. I often select a station, decide the subject being discussed is not interesting to me, and return to Favorites in order to continue scanning down the list. However, TuneIn returns me to the top of the Favorites list instead of permitting me to resume scanning where I left off. Otherwise, I love TuneInPro. I have been a user of TuneIn since probably 2010. As a radio aficionado, I love finding radio stations with live or repeat talk show programming all over the U.S. and cultural programming from other countries. Since I am a late night person, the ability to find at any almost any hour stations offering repeat programming is of great importance to me. Using TuneIn I can find the programs being repeated or recorded that I like at 3am ET, for example. The ability to record anything I am listening to live for playback later is also a huge plus for me, especially classical music concerts. Because of the variety of programming and the ability to RECORD (a huge plus!) available to me through TuneIn, other apps such as Pandora and iHeart do not interest me at all.

UPDATE: V. 3.6 is CRAP!. UPDATE 2023: Having accepted the previous design changes, my only complaint is that they took away the ability to pause and jump back a few seconds, as many other types of streaming allow. It’s needed to catch some info that goes by! UPDATE: Well, they've broken it: redesigned the app in an Apple-style boring layout which splits things into more pages than necessary... But most importantly, ALL MY FAVORITES ARE GONE!! I spent TWO YEARS selecting those - some awesome stations and shows - and pfft! Deleted!! Where are they? Why would a developer do that to its users??? Tunein should check my new comments against the old ones, below. Night and day. **************************** This is terrific-- tons of stations, streams and archived programs/ podcasts from all over the world! For a lifelong radio fan, in the digital era, this is truly a dream come true! I didn't even bother seeing what else is out there, this one keeps me very well occupied, and I'm bookmarking new favorites all the time. How great!

Needs Design Improvement. Hi, I really enjoy being able to listen to all the stations that Tune In has to offer, i have the Pro version so that i can record what I want to keep. It works great! I just wish we could be able to save to our devices the recordings, to share the recordings with others. Also the app itself looks too simple it needs to look nice or fancy, Pandora did a great job in their app! Pandora looks super cool! I wish Tune in would redesign their app, but make it user friendly. There is always updates for bug fixes but there is never an update where there is an actual change of user experience within the app! Also very much needed and i request that there is a Dark Mode!!! I listen to the radio stations at night but my bloody eyes hurt even on low brightness on my iphone. Dark mode would increase the use of the app during the night. Thank you!

Steady erosion of features. I have had the “pro” version for years. It used to be functional - it allowed you to pause and rewind broadcasts, including things like CNN. And it enabled you to record them. Very nice. Unlike the freebie vanilla version which didn’t have that. And you didn’t have to listen to Tune In commmercials interspersed in the broadcast. Well, over time that’s all gone away. You can get CNN, but you can’t pause, rewind or record. You are forced to listen to the annoying Tune In advertisements. You can get NPR, and you can pause, isn’t that awesome. But you can no longer record! This must be one of the recent “bug fixes”. It’s hilarious, because the “record” button still exists. It’s just always grayed out!! Obviously the intent of this app now is to harass you into paying more to get the “premier” version, which seems to want to replace the “pro” version. Shoddy and disgusting, there is no way in h—l I will respond to such harassment. I will go somewhere else, or just do without.

Fix it, please. I have used TuneIn for 10 years or more. It has always been good. I understood when the record feature was taken out, blame it on Apple. Now the ability to buffer 30 seconds of play has gone away as has the ability to back up and relisten to something and then fast forward to catch back up to the live stream. Those were really nice features and losing them reduces the functionality of the app. I also don’t like the “recents” section on the IPhone version of the app. It is way too easy to inadvertently press one of the recent icons and change the stream. That was really irritating when I had backed up the playback and was few minutes behind so I would lose the part I had not listened to. That problem has gone away since I can’t back up any more but it is still a problem because lots of stations have an initial ad they play when I first start listening so even if I switch back immediately to what I want to listen to I lose 30-60 seconds between the time to reestablish the stream and get through the “welcome” message.

Beyond Disappointing - Do Not Subscribe!. The app, as far as it goes, functions very well. The Premium Subscription, however, is complete junk and a waste of money. I won’t even go into my disappointment and frustration with the termination of the agreement between tuneIn and the NFL. No, I only want to talk about the fact that, as a Premium subscriber, I am getting pre-roll aand mid-roll ads for almost every station I listen to. I’m not talking about the local radio ads, either. I am talking about ads which are not heard on the stations over-the-air broadcast. When I tried to contact support, they pointed the finger at the individual radio station. That, in my opinion, should not be my problem. TuneIn lead me to believe that paying for the Premium Subscription would eliminate these ads. Otherwise, why would I even consider paying for the Premium service? There is zero value-add! Example: I tap to listen to a station in Florida. Before the station begins playing, I receive an ad for a Nashville-based hospital. And no, it is not unique to the station. This is unacceptable and had I not paid for a year in advance, I would definitely not have continued my subscription.

Still has a long way to go!. This is an update to my previous review. Unfortunately, as much as the app tries, it just can't seem to get some things right. For example, even though I have in-App Review turned off, this app continues to ask me if I enjoy it. Clearly it does not respect my wishes not to be asked to rate the app. Yet, even after I tapped no, it will ask again a week or 2 later. Persistent & refuse to accept feedback. Also, if I indicate no, I am immediately taken to the Help page. Wo, I didn't say I need help. I just answered your question if I enjoy the app. If the answer is no, the best thing, & some people can say it should be the only course of action, is to ask why I say I don't enjoy the app. Sending me to the Help page is sort of telling me I am the problem.

Great Deal for Audiobooks. Updating review to five stars. I primarily use this app for the unlimited audiobooks. There is no better value for book lovers than their audiobook selection. Other services only allow a couple free books per month. With this app you can listen to as many books as you can all for the price of 7.99 - a bargain. Update: Still going strong and they have added many authors. I have the premium version not the pro. No bugs for me Update: They no longer provide audiobooks and it’s not worth the money for the other products they have. Very disappointing. They went from being great, to being just another internet radio station. Bring back audiobooks, market it properly, and you can make more money. The audiobooks should have been a boom considering other sites charge more per month and the quantity is limited as to what can be listened to. Great loss for listeners.

Plagued with intrusive ads. Now I also hate quicken loans for life. I had this app for a long time, and I use it to listen to foreign stations occasionally, but since a few months this app became unbearable. When you open any station you’re welcomed with a high volume, high pitched, fast speaking, house flipping guru ad style from Quicken loans ceo: Jay Farmer. You would ask why now I know his name? Because its in every frickin ad! A botched remarketing algorithm must believe I’m desperate for a money loan because I’m literally bombarded with quicken loans ads every 5 minutes or less. Today it was the worst episode when I was literally flurried with 6 quicken loans ads in sequence not even one finishing before the next one started. That’s how bad this is. Now, to the listening experience: If you want to listen to a sports game, a concert, a news cast or something where you don’t want to lose the continuity, then look somewhere else because Tune In Radio will irritate you with an intrusive ad in the middle of the most interesting dialog from your radio show or maybe in the middle of your favorite song. Now I’m certain of two things: I will move to another app that treats the user with more respect, and I will never, ever go to quicken loans.

For me, a bait & switch. I purchased one year of TuneIn Premium for the “audible books” that worked out to less than $10/mo for me. As someone with a neurodegenerative disease, who used to read for a lucrative living, now living on a fixed income, both the price point and service mattered a great deal, as it is now difficult for me to read my 3 kindles. I also enjoy having MSNBC on radio; however, I have Comcast, so with the iOS app, I can listen to MSNBC as a “radio app” standing alone or while using other apps, just as with TuneIn. I would like to talk to TuneIn Premium’s Customer Service, yet it seems they would want me to do that. My Annual Renewal of TuneIn Premium is approaching in November and they stand to lose someone who could be a continuing, automatically, annually renewing customer, which is great for their books in competitive markets; however, my “customer service” tab in TuneIn Premium’s “settings” links to a blank service recommendation, which I had no option but to use. I cannot see any other method of contacting TuneIn Premium Customer Service, so I’m going out on a limb and guessing that the Customer Service Team who dreamed up this ploy is not as large as their marketing team, if not their economics forecasting But I hope and shall continue my pursuit of the TuneIn Premium’s mythical customer service. I shall update my review of TuneIn Premium’s Customer Service. 😳

Reception is usually good, but why did you mess with my college basketball?. I absolutely hate the new way games are shown with college basketball. Upcoming events used to show you everything that was going on, but now it only shows three? Why in the world would you change that? Horrible change. Change it back. I counted on this app to show me who was playing and what time. It no longer does that for me. It also only shows me a couple of live event so I can’t even listen to all the games I want to listen to. I don’t care about that top ranked team stuff. I want to know who is playing, who is on right now, who I can listen to, and not just put the top ranked teams are.

in steady decline for months. uninstalled just now because it drained my battery in a few hours of background activity. i only use this in the car with carplay. carplay has become borderline unusable: no progress bar or elapsed time/remaining time on podcasts, longer shows often stop after an hour or so and refuse to work until carplay is reset; choppy stuttering audio; favorites and recent plays no longer load cover art, some local popular stations won’t load at all, others won’t load unless i play something else at random first; no 1.5–2x speed (really?!); no visual feedback on UI after tapping categories/unresponsive for several seconds even with strong signal…I could go on. I dont know or care right now, the battery drain was the last straw. This is supposed to be the best app in category.

TUNE IN APP. Used to be the absolute BEST! Audiobooks were included with the Premium app which is $10/month. I’m visually impaired and it was a wonderful thing. Now they have removed the Audiobooks feature completely. Additionally they disabled the ability to “download” a single book upon the announcement they would be discontinuing them, so they effectively disabled any way to save books I had read, or planned to read, or was currently reading and not had the chance to finish! This was a sneaky and underhanded way to end the Audiobooks feature - there were several partly read books I couldn’t finish in time, and because they disabled downloading at same time as announcement I couldn’t save them for later. Even though I was still paying $10 month premium. Now that they have removed their best feature, I personally find there is no further need to continue paying for the Premium app. Shame on Tune In !!!!

Great App by MAJ. I love the functionality of this radio application. While in NewYork City I was listening to the 1190 AM gospel station. Now I can take that station or hundreds of other stations back home with me. The the ability to use the "record," and "sleep timer" functions are a plus. However, I just had to add an P.S. to this review - the new icon is hideous. Your management should take the new logo and go get their money back. I'm surest I know I none of the people it is supposed to represent would be proud to be associated with it or even see anything in it that reflects them (unless they are on drugs). : - )

STOP DOING WEIRD THINGS. Every time this app gets updated I’m taken aback by the dumb things that get removed or moved around or broken. I love TuneIn and I’ve been using it for probably 8 years. I learned early on the secret was to not update the app. Today it stopped working and I was forced to update the app. Now you can’t get to the ‘currently playing’ screen. Like you can’t go there. It won’t let you see what you’re listening to. To browse music stations you have to click through 47 screens and then scroll to the very bottom of a cesspool of things trying to force you to subscribe to them and whatever they are trying to sell you. It shoved the ‘favorites’ up into this other screen where they used to be easily accessible at the bottom, where they were fine. They were fine at the bottom. I’m going to stalk the updates until they update to something less bonkers and then ride that less bonkers version for as long as I can go before it forces me to update again. At which point I’ll learn the entire interface is in glowing emojis and all of the screens are jammed into the bottom left corner or whatever they do next in their quest to just constantly mess with things. It’s like an 8 year old picking at a scab. Just for no reason. Just because it’s there.

Ads are too intrusive even with premium. I listen to 2 stations (1 iHeart station and 1 sports radio station) to listen to baseball games. I got this app to listen to both. I don’t need any other content. The iHeart station works equally to the iHeart app without a subscription while the sports station works worse than other internet radio apps. The iHeart subscription is cheaper than TuneIn premium. The sports station has overlaid ads that take too long and they delay the game. MLB breaks between innings are 2 min 5 seconds as of a few years ago. There should be no more than 2 ads then the app needs to go back to the station to avoid delaying the game. The premium subscription dies not remove those ads and the last update made the ads even more intrusive. If I switch to the iHeart station then back to the sports station, the overlaid ad starts over and delays the broadcast of the game, which is a major issue for live sports. This app was supposed to remove pre-roll ads, that’s a big reason why I paid for the pro version, but the last update broke that. I’m done. The frustration has been building for a while now. The last update was the final straw.

Makes for fun commute, but a few bugs. Update 1/6/18. Just heard from tunein that “As of January 15th, 2018, we will no longer be offering audiobooks as part of our premium package. We hope you will come to enjoy our other premium content like 24/7 live streaming and commercial-free news with MSNBC, plus all the music channels and live sporting events throughout the year.” Sorry but replacing quality audio books with MSNBC? Ah, no. Still a good app, but content just took a huge hit. Pros: for $8 a month i get all NFL, MLB, and English football games. Plus current audio books. Ability to set events to my calendar. Get every radio station i can think of. Pause, record, go back to a spot, record, etc. been using the free version for years and now premium service - highly recommended for us commuters. Cons: several audio books cut chapters short. I contacted tunein and they acknowledged this was a bug being worked. NFL game commercials are replaced by mind numbing musak that really gets annoying with the large amount of breaks in the action.

Used TuneIn for Years - Kinda Like It But. Downgrading my original review because I’ve never subscribed to Tunein Pro and I keep getting charged for it, have cancelled it multiple times, but like really bad heartburn, the subscription and the charges for Tunein Pro keep coming back to my Apple account. Previous Review: Have used it for years. Wouldn't live without it, but in the last year, the constant requests to rate TuneIn when I was trying to start a show or "TuneIn" the news, has resulted in using this much less and one older iPad in our bathroom being thrown out the window. Fortunately, the iPad didn't land on anyone at the time. These constant requests for sign-ins and ratings are clearly hazardous and, the results, in terms of app functionality, reliability and features are made meaningless by this kind of disingenuous and, fundamentally, dishonest approach to surveys.

Sadly, goodbye.... TuneIn has attributes that might normally earn four or five stars, but I've discovered a deal-killer: The app won't function with my VPN (virtual private network) activated. I always protect my online privacy to the max, and this means encrypting all of my traffic, both incoming and outgoing, and masking my identity and location to the extent possible. If TuneIn won't work with VPN, does this mean the company is trying to collect data from my activity? The app tells me I have no WiFi connection, but I do, of course. Does this mean the developer is unable to handle encryption? Or, perhaps, doesn't want me to mask location or identity? I'm going to delete TuneIn from my devices after posting this review. I've found other online tuners that work okay for me with privacy protection enabled — myTuner Radio and Simple Radio are two examples. In these times, we need to protect our privacy from corporations who want to sell us and governments who want to repress us. That's why I subscribe to a good VPN (Tunnel Bear), I never use Google search and have zero contact with Facebook or its subsidiaries. Remember, if it is free, you are the product.

The app works great but I won’t subscribe after this month.. The app works wonderfully but the two main reasons I subscribed to pro were 1) audiobooks (they had some fantastic titles and $9.99 was a hell of a deal to have access to them) and 2) football. After today audiobooks are no longer available and football season is over after this month so I’m cancelling. Maybe I’ll subscribe again when football revs up in the fall but it def won’t be a year round thing for me any longer. I don’t know if the issue with audiobooks was financial on the side of the publishers, not enough interests from listeners or both. Tunein never really advertised the feature very much, I sort of found it accidentally. Shame to see it go though.

No more custom streams! No more pausing. No more recording.. I mostly use TuneIn Radio Pro to play my own stream from my own server 95% of the time. I have saved my streams as Custom URLs and Favorite them. For many months now, I have not been able to play any stream not linked to within TuneIn Radio. The only way I have found to play my streams is to type in/paste the Custom URL again. After that it plays, but pretty much just that one time. Later in the day if I want to play that stream again, I need to paste the URL in once again as a Custom URL. It’s like the Favorites buttons on your car radio just displaying what station you select, but not tuning to that station, you still have to turn the dial to tune it in manually. Then there’s the long lost feature of being able to pause a playing stream for up to 30 minutes and resume it and not lose your place in the audio. And of course, the recording feature that was removed for legal reasons. I just wish I could record and pause what is coming off of MY OWN STREAM, is that so illegal? So, TuneIn, you went from a 5-star app to a 1-star app and that is only because I cannot rate you lower than a 1. Do you not have a development team or coders any longer?

Use it everyday. I absolutely love this app. Every day, while at work, I listen to my favorite stations from around the world. Completely recommend it. There is one thing, though. In the watch app the volume controls don’t do anything. I have to switch to the Now Playing screen to control volume. I’m sure most people who have the Apple Watch will agree but won’t call you out on it because it’s such a small thing to change. I’m also sure that you guys want this app to be the best it can be and will hopefully fix this little problem. In the meantime, I’ll continue to use this app. I’ll be waiting! (＾ｰ^)

Excellent but why can’t I rearrange the order of my favorite stations??. I have been a devoted user of this software for several years now but it is frustrating when functions that were once standard seem to disappear. Currently I am no longer able to move my numerous favorite stations into the order I would like in order to organize them into like groups within the master favorites list. Now when I add a new station I can no longer edit the favorites list to drag it up into the grouping it should be in. This functionality was present only a couple of updates ago. Please could the developers bring this back? It was of great benefit and honestly such a no-brainer that I am surprised to learn it is no longer there. Also, for those of us who have exceptionally long lists of favorite stations, can it be made possible to see ALL of our favorites right away without having to scroll down the truncated list of favorite stations to select “view all” just to actually see all of our favorites? This is otherwise an amazingly thought out and invaluable piece of software that is a must-have!

Attention is lacking. I first purchased iTunes pro shortly after it came out and I thought it worked great on my iPhone.”5 stars” I really liked the app... BUT when the developer updated it and merged the record time and alarm together it really screwed up. Since that update I have been unable to say that or I should say to properly set the alarm because it never goes off regardless of what state the app is in, or turned on, or active in the background the alarm function does not work as it should or as it has in the past. NEEDS WORK. If it had not been for that I would rate this as an excellent app. WHY DID YOU CHANGE IT. The alarm function and record function should be separated.

What changed????. I am an frequent user of TuneIn. I enjoyed it so much that I upgraded to the Pro version; however, I used to be able to record my favorite news shows. This was especially convenient if there was a schedule conflict with being able to listen to my shows live. But, I noticed with a recent app update, that this “recording” feature was removed. Really disappointed, truly disappointed, Without this feature, what’s the real need to having & paying for the “Pro” version? I wish the company would bring this option back. Until then, I’ll be searching for other apps that more so align with what I am looking for

Killed the app with latest update. I loved the app, until now. The latest update made the app unusable. Previous versions had 30sec back and forward buttons next to the play button when listing to a stream. That was extremely useful. You could go back or forward in 30sec intervals to listen to something again or skip through commercials if you paused the playback. Those buttons were changed to scan. Which changes the stream you are listening to similar to a scan function on a radio to scan through stations. I don’t want to do that while I’m listening to a radio station. Please bring back the skip feature. I paid for the pro version and I extremely disappointed that this was changed. I’m going to look for a different program until this feature is returned.

Clutter making user experience dreadful. I have been enjoying this app for years but take issue with the increasing amount of clutter getting in the way of the usability of the app. I have no interest in sports radio or any of the other suggested stations invading the homescreen; I’d prefer to find the stations I enjoy on my own, thankyouverymuch. My favorites list which includes hourly updates of certain news outlets, podcasts, etc. has now been relegated way down the page, forcing me to scroll past a bunch of nonsense to find them. Additionally, I’d like to see a “swipe right/go back” gesture to navigate back to the home screen without having to crawl up to the upper-left corner and tap the “X” in order to return to where I was. I have a big phone and my thumb doesn’t reach up there easily.

Banner Ads on the paid version, Buggy, slow to load. Still with the F&ck!ng ads. I really think a lawsuit needs to happen. Just when you think folks have figured out how to make a stable ad-free version of paid software imagine my surprise to find rolling banner ads on my Pro/ advert free software. Besides being miffed with that the app is slow to load, it often freezes and fails to resume playing a stream after phone calls or when getting back into the car after running an errand. It just freezes. This app used to be really good, then they started adding crap no one cares about... I wouldn't recommend I only use it because I paid for it. You know what works? The banner ads they insist on putting in my app. $9.99 for the privilege if having a banner ad for home depot at the top of my favorites page with no way to turn it off. Support is none. So long as Apple allows these app developers to het away with this they will. Keep in mind while this app is "starting up" what its actually doing is calling home to Tune In to download banner ad content instead of streaming your music.

Favorite/ no more. I have been a long time subscriber to this app and have loved everything about it. A little buggy here and there but not that bad. I listen to audiobooks while working 6 days a week. I go through 10 plus books a month and love being able to browse through the selection to pick what I find interesting. THEN YOU HAD TO GO AND RUIN THE BEST APP IVE EVER USED! No words can describe how disappointed I am you decided to cancel audiobook content on Jan. 15. I would happily pay a higher monthly fee to continue with my subscription but after two emails to support asking why tunein is going away from audiobooks the only answer I can get is “audiobook content will no longer be available after Jan 15 we hope you continue to use the many blah blah blah” if tunein brings back audiobooks and even for a higher subscription I’ll be back. But I’m out now.

Broken! ***UPDATE***. Update 30 November - The black screen issue has finally been fixed! I’ve opened and closed the app several times with no black screen issue. Thank you - changed rating back to 5 stars. Stopped working with the new version. As others have said, only get a black screen when opening the app. Deleted app and reinstalled, but will only work one time. If you close and reopen the app you get the black screen again. Pretty bad for a paid subscription. Perhaps development team should read the reviews after putting out a new release. Users are the best testers.

If I could only give NO stars.... I was an early adopter to this app and now they have turned their back on me. For many years I was a faithful and loyal customer that did my best to spread the love by recommending the app to friends and family. I was able to record radio shows and amassed well over 200 recordings. Last week I made the mistake of tapping “Update All” in the App Store to get my phone current. With the update to TuneIn, I lost said 200+ recordings and the ability to record going forward. When I wrote to support they replied that they sent out an email, which I never saw and a notification every time I tried to record should have popped up to notify me. NO SUCH NOTIFICATION EVER POPPED UP! I am beyond upset. The record feature was the main reason I used this app. I hate how companies stray from their core features in app updates then say “sorry, it was for legal reasons.” Funny how it was legal when it came out and for 7+ years that I had the product, but now they claim it’s for “legal reasons.”

Great App. Been using it for years and just keeps on improving. 👍. It's still a great app on my iPhone, iPad and iPad Pro, recently I bought the new iPad and it's making me have a forced subscription 👎 I kept deleting and reinstalling and somehow it recovered and once again I can give it 🤙& 5 stars Today TuneIn radio pro at last gives us the option to have a sleep timer which works great 😁👍👍

My favourite radio app. I love this app and always recommend it to others. I like the range of stations you can get, the easy play format, the recording feature (on the pro version), and so on.

Too many ads. So many ads when I listen to CNN - why? I thought paying for premium would eliminate them.

Recording. I had a lot of music from radio station recording in my phone, but one day everything was delete by self from my 3 device... I have Tunein Pro... now is not show the option to recording

The best app ever. This is the best app, I have been a user for years and when travelling it allows me to pick the music stations I like if the music in the local free to air doesn't suit me, especially in country areas of Australia Still the best app ever

Love Tunein Radio. I no longer listen to the standard radio as Tunein Radio provides so much music uninterrupted by ads and DJ’s babbling on about their kids........ plus so many awesome podcasts to listen too, it gives me an opportunity to learn as I drive. Try it, you will love it too......

Latest version 25.5.0 causes app to shutdown May 11, 2023. Just updated to the latest update and the app closes when I pick to listen to any of the radio streams. Version before worked fine.

No Sleep Timer. The app has no way to be turned off after a set time of listening. All the other audio apps I use have this pretty basic and standard feature, but not this app...

Ads load but stations don’t.. I loved this app when it launched years ago. Now with the inserted adverts that start whenever you start the app the radio stream that should follow often fails to load. Many radio stations now offer their own apps. My advice is delete this one and go straight to the source. Disappointing to see a good app go bad. 👎🏼 + I also was attempting to use this app on the Apple Watch. It’s slow and clunky and seems to be on some sort of delay. Unusable. I feel bad to write such a negative review but unfortunately it’s justified.

Keeps repeating as others have said. I rarely review apps, but felt compelled to do so on this occasion. This can be a great app but every time there is a significant update the same issue happens with the stream constantly skipping back several seconds. Other reviewers seem to be experiencing the same problem. I don’t have this issue with other live stream apps (e.g those offered by the stations themselves) and it makes TuneIn simply unusable. Sorry TuneIn, but I’ve run out of patience with this and will just have to go direct to the online radio stations from now on.

Disgusting Greedy Shameless. My recordings have all been deleted! What an utterly disgusting, greedy and shameful act! How can you do that to loyal customers who have been using your app since the very beginning? How can any app delete a user's data without warning? Absolutely disgusting selfish actions. Greed won't get you more customers! The long term users will remove the app now and the potential new users will read the reviews regarding your behaviour and hopefully realise this app is no longer desirable or trustworthy! Absolutely NOT trustworthy! Pathetic treatment of you oldest customers. This app is now rotten to the core!

Great App But..... I don’t know which update it happened but so call progress has put its performance backwards. I have a “state of the art” iPhone 8 Plus that is constantly maintained to each IOS update. Tune In PRO works well generally but it far too often KEEPS ON REPEATING short parts of the broadcast, sometimes up to 3 times. Also, using the <>30 second button can cause it to jump large blocks of program held in its buffer, well beyond 30 seconds. Each time it gets updated I hope for these things to be fixed. I live in hope!

Getting worse. Might not be their fault but the streaming on 3AW Melbourne is a mess. Keeps buffering, cuts out, doesn’t start at all Also with the newer larger screen phones there are other stations below. So if you pick up your phone these are so easy to tap, changing stations. I hope this can be scrapped. Also miss having a volume dial on screen that tunein used to have

Awesome app. Best app I have ever bought and has been for years until recently they've put audio ads on the pro version, what's with this?! Have stopped using and going to the direct apps for radio, too frustrating

Since update Pro thinks I’m offline. Since I updated to the latest Pro version 21.8.0, it continually thinks I’m offline and the home page and library are unavailable and that I should try later when reconnect to the internet. Went and downloaded the Free version and it works fine!!!!! I just did a major update to my iOS and all my apps, I now find that the recording function and all my recordings are gone. This was one of the primary reasons I paid for the Pro version. REALLY NOT HAPPY. This app WAS great but not anymore. Update: TuneIn support advised the following which worked. - Close pro app - Put device in airplane mode - Open pro app again - Turn off airplane mode and the app will reconnect - Sign out & sign in again Still not happy about losing the record function but at least the Pro version is functioning again.

Good free app. Awesome app. Only one thing, is my favourite Newcastle station 106.9 I listen to cuts out occasionally and I can’t get it back till the next day. Luckily I can listen too 102.9 instead. Would be good if 105.3 was on here too. Otherwise I would of given it 5 stars.

Favourite, but... repeats. Why oh why, after years, are we still listening to bits of almost every broadcast being repeated? I find myself turning to alternatives more and more frequently. For example, I never get a repeat on BBC’s World Service, on Tune In I almost always do. Please fix this!

Have tried to like Tune-in but it keeps letting me down. This was the first radio app I had and I liked it until it started dropping out and looping. I’ve tried going back a number of times since because it seems to be the only radio app that “records” what you’re listening to so you can go back and pause/resume but the looping problem was still there. Noticed today that there had been an update so I tried again. More fool me! Almost straight away the looping started.

4 days since the app stopped working. I’ve try all the trouble solving advices on help center for the past 3 days and still the app is not working, it keep on asking me to create a ticket for the case but the ticket link is also not working!!? 😤😤😤

Love listening to stations in places I used to live. Keeps me connected. Couldn’t do without It.. Third review: no way that logo is better. First review: Love the ability to replay stations and fave shows when I'm in the car, especially while travelling long trips. Asked me to rate it even though I already have. Only downside. Oh, and it is harder to find stuff and some stations are gone.

Latest update. Since the latest update if I change to another app the TuneIn app switches off - same happens if the screen switches off. So if I want to read my emails then I can’t listen to a radio station on TuneIn at the same time. I used to be able to do this. Also if I want to go to sleep listening to a station on TuneIn then I have to make sure the screen does not turn off. Please fix - it is very annoying.

Public servant. An excellent app. I have been using it for years and I have never had a problem. Very useful to listen local radios and from other countries. I can tune to radio stations that we can't listen on a standard radio because we live 500kms away from metro area. GREAT APP!

Good, just one thing!. I have had pro for years and it’s great 👍🏼 One problem with it only on pc adds still popping up on play bar at bottom right, says sponsored link.... I’m mentioning this because you pay for this app for iPhone and pc ext... But on iPhone X it’s 100% super

Nicofau. I’ve been using the app for many years now. I remember it had a recording function, allowing me to record channels and listen to them in the car, away from Wi-Fi without using downloading. What happened to that function?

Suddenly not working.. With today's update comes an error message 'An error occurred, please try again' with no access to anything. What happened?

Good...but constant advert for premium annoying. Have used this for years, but recently the constant full screen ad offering premium appears more and more often on startup, so Auto continue feature useless as I have to manually close the advert. Devs, how do I disable this? I don't want, and will never want, premium.

Mixed feelings. As one of the original users, the app have gone through a lot of ups and downs. It seems stable now. Even though I paid for the app, I am now constantly being asked to take a monthly subscription even though this was clearly not agreed when purchasing. I think it’s not right guys! Do the right thing and honor your initial agreement please. Cheers

Recordings. Originally paid for app because of recording function but they shut it down. Not fair and is annoying. Bring back recording.

Where are the favorites?. The latest update has made it impossible to find or change stations. Favorites are gone now because you get ads and news instead of the radio on a radio app. Not the best move guys. I can’t change stations now so can’t use the app. Why did you remove the ability for people to easily change or search for stations? Is it a radio app or a news app?

Ad then nothing. This morning, I have tried loading my station about 8 times, and I get to hear one ad (the same ad) and then nothing. Very frustrating paying to hear only an ad.

Great app for international radio. I use this app to listen to local home radio when travelling internationally and to listen to talk-free classical music at home on Swiss Classique. It could be improved so it automatically tunes to the most recent station I listened to.

Love it but. I liked this app but when the app has been in the background for a while or when you first launch it it DOES NOT automatically load the last stream listened to. This makes it POOR for hands free use. I have now downloaded another radio app that not only plays the last station played at startup but it is also recognised in the Siri Shortcuts. So I can load the other app via Siri and it will automatically start playing. This is great when you are in a car or on a motorcycle! I have mentioned this shortfall before but do you think the developers listened? Bye bye 🖐

Best Music Streaming App. This is the best world wide streaming radio station app out there. Can always listen ti the type of music you really love no matter where you are or where the music originates from.

I couldn’t give it zero 😡 this app has lost its direction. I've had this app for sometime now - there was a massive upgrade issue last year and now the recent upgrade ONCE AGAIN RESTRICTS THE STATIONS I USED TO GET!!! Error messages about playlists and I can't get stations that I used to and now local radio stations seem to be taking over WHAT'S GOING ON?? Please fix it!! Now they have removed the recording function without notice!! WHAT RUBBISH!! Lost all my recordings that I paid for!! Been loyal since I paid for the privilege recording version maybe 10 years ago. I asked why I lost my recordings and they basically said - bad luck. Now it’s just another streaming service that wants more money!! This has made a lot of long time users VERY ANGRY 😡 You are better off just going to the the station you want because it will be for free. I AM SO UNHAPPY ABOUT THIS - AND JUDGING BY OTHER LONG TERM USERS SOMARE THEY.....

Highly recommend!. I've been using TuneInRadio for almost 6 years. It fails to record radio shows. It once did but they deleted all my recordings, useless app. Don’t install!!!

Removing our recordings without any warning is an absolute disgrace. Like many others on here I had years worth of recordings, some that were important due to personal reasons, and now they are all gone. This is absolute contempt for your customers and disgraceful conduct. I’ll look for another radio app to use from now on. (Update) This app seems to think new updates involve removing features instead of adding things or making things better. Removing the rewind button makes no sense and now this app offers nothing but playing radio and nothing else. What a joke

Wishlist for Recordings. Not sure why I couldn’t select Recordings to be played in CarPlay. Wouldn’t that be handy? Also, option to rename Recordings would make identifications much easier, especially ones you wanted to keep, or play in CarPlay. Some way to Share or export Recordings would be good too, although that may have copyright implications.

Record, FFW, REW Gone!. TuneIn just lost another customer. I purchased and used this app for many years due to the record, Pause, FFW & REW functionality and the ability to playback recorded material, specially in areas without access to internet. The Pause, FFW and REW no longer work. The pause is Stop instead. The record function has been removed and my many hours over years of recorded music and health related material has been deleted without any warning at all. I feel robbed! it’s as if someone broke into your home and stole all the furniture. That’s what it feels like to have all the recorded material taken away by iTunes. Very unprofessional and disappointing! Tunein Radio no longer offers a competitive advantage to other music streaming apps.

TIR is my life saver.. I’m just a bit insomniac these days so the nights can be long. I live in Australia so our night is Europe’s day. It means I can listen to UK radio and keep up with news and events so easily and when I want a change I can listen to podcasts too. It is just great.

Icon is shocking. Great app but where do these marketting geniuses come from? Your logo was a brand with value which was easy to spot and sharp - “iconic” really - now Yuck. Only other change this bad I remember was Tom Toms change from their two hands icon.

Please bring back rewind function. I have been using TuneIn for almost 8 years now and the rewind/pause function is a major reason for me to prefer it over other radio apps. Why has this been removed? Will this be implemented again what is the timeline? I would appreciate a response. Thank you. Edit: Are you ever going to respond to any of the feedback and questions here?!

Average. I always really really enjoyed app but since last upgrade I only just like it now. Features I loved and miss now. Most all the ability to pause the stream and then catch up later. Before If someone rang whilst listening you would not miss anything, was brilliant. Next was ability to go back and hear something again. So if someone said something you missed you could listen again. Absolutely loved those features. Very disappointed!

Used to be good, but…. Spatial Audio was being generated for most stations by default when using AirPods. Around 4-6 weeks ago (after updates) I noticed it was not working on the default stream for stations, I had to select a different stream for Spatial Audio to start working again. However in the last update yesterday, all Spatial Audio has been turned off. I have not been able to find any stream with it working now, nor can I find any setting in the app that enables it. Why would you turn this fantastic feature off? It is a major differentiator.

Where did I go wrong?. Paid a premium, got the pro version a decade ago and the app used to record. Am I missing something or did TuneIn drop the ability? My old iPhone still lets me record which I like doing overnight and listen during the day but the app is getting patchy it just doesn’t work or do what it used to my new updated iPhone still says TuneIn pro works better but with no headphone jack and the no ability to record the overall experience isn’t what it used to be.

Not happy. Only giving one star because I have to. If I had the choice I would give no stars. You have ruined an app that I would use multiple times daily. But I don’t anymore since you took away the record feature. That is what would separate you from the rest. I refuse to use this app which is now useless to me unless that feature returns. Don’t recommend this app because what the PAYING customer wants doesn’t matter. Now they have decided to take away the only 2 radio stations that I listen to. They ask you to review the app but don’t listen to you. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. It’s rubbish.

Connection problems with my iPhone 6splus. I have many times a message that TUNEIN radio is not available right now and try again later. Then. I use other radio apps like SIMPLY RADIO ETC with no problems.

Good app for radio stations around Australia but i don’t support the NFL so stop!!!. Good app to search for Fm radio around Australia too bad it assumes i like NFL and American sports when l live in australia and i dont support these games and these advertisements wanting us Aussies to join Premium for NFL minuses 3 out of 5 stars for me.

Terrible app and worse customer service. The app is terrible and the customer service is even worse. I reported that the app would quite often loose connection (as I generally use it while driving) then upon reconnection it would play the audio at half speed or sometimes double speed. Customer service didn’t understand, it’s not rocket science. Anyway I recorded video for them to hear it. Then they asked if WiFi was good even after telling them I use it while driving. They never sorted the problem don’t care and so I have now stopped using it. Worst radio app there is and I had the pro paid for version. My advice use another better app.

Heartless & Unconscionable. Hero to Zero Beware!! TI have gone from a 5 star to zero over the removal of one feature. Happy to lose the record FUNCTION... BUT WHY DID YOU DELETE ALLLLLLLLLLLLL MY RECORDINGS? Years worth! No MENTION or advanced warning of losing the saved recordings. NONE! And, as if you wish to rub salt into our wounded hearts....WHY IS THE *RECORD BUTTON* STILL PRESENT ON THE USER INTERFACE? Sitting there as it has for YEARS, but now, greyed out and MOCKING US? I've been loyal to you since the beginning. Shame on you. As if you give a rat's a***. Then you claim to "understand [our] feelings on the change" and offer us a 6 month free subscription of a less than product as if that will heal the loss of YEARS OF WORK. You understand NOTHING. May another app topple your perceived world's best status asap. NL

Reliability issues are back. Historically I found updates to the app would often leave it very unreliable. The updates improved for quite some time until last week - now the app works very infrequently. Once in every 10 attempts to steam, it might work. Very frustrating.

If you wanting recording don’t bother- install AUDIALS RADIO instead. AUDIALS RADIO gives you back the ability to record radio streams! Nice interface as well

Airplay stopped working. Airplay simply stopped working when I now try to set it after launching this app. I must quit the app and relaunch it again for Airplay to work. I tried contacting support but I didn’t get any reply.

Angry long time user. First, what happened to chrome cast? I can't broadcast to Google Home devices anymore. I 've used this app for years but the deceptive way they're pushing their premium service is a step too far. I accidentally subscribed to their free trial when I opened their app and the way to unsubscribe is not obvious at all. If I wouldn't have looked into it I wouldn't have know I would be automatically charged after the free trial. Totally unethical. I will be looking for an alternative to Tunein.

Regret paying for it. App spends a LOT of time buffering, no matter what station I am listening to. Terrible user interface design, a lot of wasted space on the screen. Why does the station icon need to be so big? Recent station buttons don’t work. Poorly placed buttons at bottom edge of screen are confused with swiping up motion of screen. Almost every button press needs to be repeated. New “Switch” feature is stupid, let ME choose what music I want to listen to!

Use to be good. This was the best radio app ever, then they got greedy with subscriptions and after you paid for the pro version, stopped letting you record, and just gives you the left over junk from paid subscriptions. Need to find a good radio app cause this isnt it anymore. Cant zero stars but thats what id leave.

Refund. I would like a refund since I paid for the pro version and now all of a sudden I have to upgrade to get the features that I’ve already paid for.

Not happy at all. Paid for the pro version. , first they add commercial , now the remove the record. And I lost all record that I had for years :(

Record. Give me back the record button i payd wen you stasted so i shoud steel have that option

Your new release has erased all my recording!. You can remove the recording button but YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS TO ERASE ALL OF MY RECORDING. I PAID YOU CLOWNS FOR THE PRO VERSION TO HAVE THAT FEATURES!!! Not a smart move! I would rather pay for my Apple Music subscription than paying you a subscription fee. I hope you bankrupt soon, Cheers!

Better when it had a record button. I had this app to be able to record broadcast. At first it worked and then they took off this option. I don’t use it as much since.

Not happy. Since update I am earrings pre load adds. I’ve got the pro version what’s up with that ?

Not free anymore. Several stations i used before now are not working but in are still live. Advertisements are attacking me everytime I turn on this app. Record button is so small i never know if it recording or not.

Feeling ripped off. How come after having tune in pro for years which I’ve paid for, I am now asked to pay a subscription

COMMENT SE FOUTRE DES CLIENTS. VOUS M’AVEZ TERRIBLEMENT DÉCU DEPUIS QUE VOUS AVEZ ENLEVÉ LA FONCTION D’ENREGISTREMENT DE L’APPLICATION. J’AI PAYE POUR LA VERSION PRO ET MAINTENANT VOUS AVEZ CHANGÉ POUR UNE VERSION PAR ABONNEMENT AU COÛT DE 13.99 PAR MOIS AU TAUX DE CHANGE EN EURO. VOTRE COMPAGNIE EST UNE HONTE ET N’HONORE PAS LES ANCIENS CLIENTS. MAINTENANT JE RECOMMANDE, J’UTILISE LA VERSION ‘’ AUDIALS PLAY ‘’ QUI ELLE TE PERMET DE FAIRE DES ENREGISTREMENT DES STATIONS RADIO A TRAVERS LE MONDE. SUR CE EN ESPÉRANT QUE VOUS ALLEZ DISPARAITRE. CORDIALEMENT MES SALUTATION LES PLUS POCHE.

Used to be good. Avoid this one. Had this app for almost ten years. I PAID for the Pro version. last year they removed the record feature. I held off on updates until today in error. Yesterday I had a perfectly working app with recording features and historical recordings. It’s one thing to remove the feature but they yanked the recordings. Those were mine not yours. Screw you. I’m outta here. There are other alternatives

Tune in radio. Give me back the record button ! 😡

Rubbish. I paid for premium a long time ago. I downloaded some radio programs for offline listening. And then one day tune in canceled the button to reach downloaded programs. They were just radio programs and I didn’t think that they were indulgent with copyrights. Although I paid the premium pay-out, I can no longer listen to my favorite radio stations any longer.

Yikes! - hold off upgrading. If you've used Tune-In Radio and liked it, sit this upgrade out. The silly changes to terminology are bad enough but much of the basic functionality no longer works, menu choices lead to error messages, and on it goes. They must have appointed a Vice President in charge of bad design and broken functionality on this one. The paid/pro version was such a good product before the 'improved' it. If you are lucky enough to have an old version installed, do yourself a favor and wait for a release with all the fixes. It also seems like they may be deliberately creating performance problems and long delays to get you to upgrade from the Pro version you have already paid for to the Premium version. If so, that's unfair. Definitely looking for an alternative. This is no longer an acceptable product even if it were free.

SCAM. Paid for “Tune in Pro” a couple years ago instead of opting for the free version. Then they pull a “Let me introduce you to PREMIUM” where you have to pay a subscription. I believe this is a greedy cash grab and is a disingenuous corporate policy. Don’t patronize such players. Vote with your money.

It Gets Worse Every Update—Ads Galore in a Paid App. Ads for “TuneIn Premium” are interspersed throughout the app. It started with a splash screen that appeared every time you opened the app, and now there’s a whole tab dedicated to TuneIn Premium on the bottom of the app, along with ads in the app. The fact that this is a paid app pushing a subscription down our throats is ridiculous. First they removed the “record” button, and now this. At least give us the option to hide the “TuneIn Premium” tab and the associated ads in the app—they shouldn't even be there in the first place. I will never purchase your premium service, so let me not have it visible 24/7 in the app!!

Warning - update removes record function. The recent update removed the record function and deleted all saved recordings. They removed this record function without mentioning it in the update notes - a dishonest move. Worse yet, forcibly deleting already recorded radio without telling users was a terrible decision and bad customer service. I’d rather buy a competitors app now, because there’s nothing that sets TuneIn apart from them other than actively keeping their customers in the dark.

🎃. I’m scared 😨 to update since I was burned in the past by Tunein When I lost the record feature, which I loved, I had so many recordings but now gone ☹️.

Déçu de ce que est devenu la version pro. Plus d’enregistrement et ajout de pub … j ai payer pour cela mais depuis les updates tunein a supprimer ce dont pourquoi j’avais acheter la version pro qui es devenu similaire à la version gratuite …

Are you enjoying TuneIn…excessive propt. Being asked if i enjoy the app every 5 time i use it… that’s excessive. Users should be able to disable this ‘annoyance’

Device Registration. I love this app and am subscribed for a year. No regrets! But I have had a couple of “funny” problems. One is that when you are sitting out front on the step and the connection is teetering between home WiFi and cellular (5G), the app is not forgiving at all. It tends to try to buffer constantly. I could go back in the house but… summer or I could sit at the end of the driveway but… neighbours. I find other apps are far more forgiving. I’m no expert but that’s what I’ve found. The second problem is this morning I couldn’t get on my premium. The account info says I have premium and the account was all correct but it just wouldn’t allow me to listen to premium content. Turns out it was my fault as I cleaned up all the unused devices on the TuneIn website. It didn’t re-register like most devices do. So after an hour of frustration I decided to uninstall the app and reinstall and that fixed it. So I’ll take the hit on that. I’m only writing this to help others if you run into a similar problem. I love the app and it’s still a solid five stars.

Not impressed. I want my ability to record back Please reset to version 5.1 or 2012 settings I have pro version I paid for don’t frig it up

Excellent. Love it !

App not stable on. Tsn

Great app but.... Already paid for app now you want a monthly fee! Might have to forgo this app altogether. Love the pause and record but not worth $13.99 month.

Ads in Pro Version. You now hear an ad when you start listening a station. I paid for the pro version. Why??? This is so disrespectful for your customers that paid your pro app to NOT get ads. I still can’t believe it… I guess it’s normal in 2022 to piss off your customers when you want to make more money.

Back and forward gone. Used to be a good application. Until they remove the back and forward buttons. Also, every day, I get a message to leave a feedback, even if it’s turned off in the settings.

Cancel this app. I paid for the pro version of the app. quite some time ago. I Launched the today and find they changed to a subscription service. That sucks, I didn’t agree to the change and didn’t even start the “one month free” scam. I’ve deleted the app and won’t be using any more. Two thumbs down to Tune-in Radio.

Disappointment. Paid for the pro version a few years ago which included no adds or commercials, now I have adds and commercials, and they want me to pay an annual subscription for no adds or commercials, dream on. That's what I paid for in the first place. This apps has gone from a 5 star to a no star app but no star is not an option. This app now really sucks, and I should get reimburse and also get compensated for this violation. I wound not pay attention to those false positive reviews either, the last reviewer is correct, developers sometimes play these games to boost rating for their garbage app out of pure "selfish greed" yes app sucks.

Bring BACK RECORD!!!. Was great before & I PAID FOR PRO To have RECORD and it has bugged me so much i rarely use this app anymore.

Disaster. Have had Tunein Pro for several years and worked fine. Suddenly this month it will not open and goes to black screen. Can delete and reload which works for a few hours then goes dead again so have to reload once or twice a day. Tunein admits problem but won’t say when or if it will be fixed. Unbelievable!

Paid Subscription‽. Why am I now asked to pay for premium content when I already paid for the app? Feel cheated.

Tout perdu mes enregistrements. Je suis extrêmement déçue. J’ai payé pour la version pro il y a plusieurs années et j’ai perdu tous les enregistrements que j’avais et maintenant on me demande de payer. On aurait pu nous avertir et nous offrir quelque chose. J’ai trouvé ça sauvage comme façon de faire désolée, mais je ne suis plus intéressée et je vous conseille de ne pas faire confiance à cette app

Access to stations around the world. Provides access to great music available around the world. The developers continue to remove features from the Pro version in order to push a subscription. Early adopters funded the app development, we shouldn’t lose what we paid for.

No respect for people with previous version. I bought this app pro version and i cant browse anything, it days an error occurred please try again ....!!!! It seems with new upgrade they kick previous buyers out to pay for new upgrades

How do I report them?. I had about 8 years of my radio broadcasts on a station I provide content to on here and you deleted it without warning. This is atrocious and you should be ashamed of yourselves. I just lost nearly a decade of my work. If there’s a way to recover it, I’m happy to hear it, otherwise you should just close your doors because you don’t care about customer experiences clearly.

Should be better.. Add the ability to create Siri shortcuts for individual stations. The app Receiver does this well. The premium subscription is so overpriced and painful in Canada. Showing the American price in app should be considered false advertising. Be aware that the subscription costs $13.99 not $9.99 for us lonely Canadians. Good thing we’re used to being ripped off.

Recording. How come I paid for the version Pro but I cannot record?

TuneIn Radio’s fall. I just discovered why TuneIn Radio has gone from of the greatest apps to one of the worst, Google now owns it. And all they are interested in is money, control and power, so much so that it is vital for them to know, when you take a dump, what color is your underwear, who you talk to, and much more. Every single thing you do is known to them, even my review. To confuse them the best thing to do is take pictures of nothing you care about, search the web for things you have no interest in or even hate. Give them so much false information that they won’t be able to tell the real you from the fake one. The new TuneIn app has been programmed to force adds and subscription and crap at you, with Facebook being one of them. If you don’t believe me open the app for yourself, I mean the program. They are buying up so many companies and technologies that will hack into everything you own, so best thing is to confuse them so much they won’t know who you are. Thanks

Black screen. App not working any more on IOS. I even reinstalled the app, logged in and out but only getting black screen. What’s up with that?

Subscription??. I already paid for pro, now they want me to subscribe again? bait and switch. DELETED.

Arnaque!. J’ai cette application depuis longtemps et je me réveille un beau matin et ils ont supprimé mes enregistrements et la possibilité d’enregistrer mes podcasts... Une belle arnaque. Éviter cette compagnie frauduleuse!

Complete Bullsh!#. So tunein radio won let you listen to the app without paying $9.99/month for a subscription to their “new” platinum version of the app. I paid a buck or two to support this app when it was no longer free... this was years ago... about a decade ago... and I stuck by them without complaining about the addition of all of their adds, both visual and audible. NOW THEY WANT $10/MONTH.... FU$@ THAT! TUNEIN NOW TUNED OUT! APP DELETED AND REPLACED WITH IHEARTRADIO! BIG MISTAKE TUNEIN!

Pro version Recording. I paid for the pro version to get the recording function and by the last update tunein cancelled the recording button. This is unacceptable.

Can No Longer Record. I purchased this app many years ago and loved it for recording my favourite programs. I really enjoyed the option of playing back programs at a more convenient listening time. I no longer have a use for this app and will be deleting it.

Still can’t rewind or fast forward old recordings. I made recordings years ago, and I still can’t seek my old recordings. I’m forced to play them through. This has been broken for years.

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Tunein. I going to pull up my original purchase back when I paid for the ad free version long ago and report this to the BBB as us longtime users paid for this long ago. Jan 30th 2013 for me but yet you keep the ads and try to charge us for premium service over again. Guess I should have just used the free version as paying for ad free got me nothing. This is a despicable move and probably illegal as the pro and previous updates of the pro version were touted as ad free. And the records of it are available easily.

Only game in town for NFL game audio. I have been a TuneIn user since 2010, after my father turned me onto the app. I use it to keep track of my hometown radio stations, strictly for the nostalgia of it. I also use it to listen to radio in the car, since my car has terrible radio reception. My only gripe with the app is the inexplicable buffering that occurs while listening to live NFL broadcast. The monthly cost for NFL audio is totally worth the money, and it works out cheaper than NFL game day audio that you would purchase at the beginning of the season.

Latest update is buggy. I recently upgraded to an iPhone 11 and iOS 13. The most recent tunein radio update is very buggy and makes the app unusable in many instances. The app freezes and needs to be restarted most times if I take a phone call and try to go back to what I was listening to. Also, the volume on the Tunein generated ads is 2-3x the volume of the stream I am listening to causing me to scramble for my phone to turn the volume down. This is really annoying when I am listening through a Bluetooth speaker and the volume suddenly is full blast and I am nowhere near my phone...it makes the app unusable. Note, I have never given a 1 star review before and have used Tunein happily for 5+ years until now

A question. I’ve been using the free version of Tunein radio for years now and decided to buy the Tunein pro version yesterday. On the free version I cast it using google chrome cast to my speakers and it works all the time. Since I bought the pro version I don’t even see the “cast” sign in the app when I’m listening to music. What’s going on Tunein? From the information on the pro version it is stated you can cast your radio to google chrome cast but in the app there is nothing about that. Can you guys fix it or I’m deleting the pro version. What the hell!!

No more recording. When you removed the functionality to record and schedule recordings your app went from five stars to a single star. I have used this app for eight or nine years but now it’s the same as every other streaming app. I loved being able to record radio programs from other parts of the world that were often on at 2am my time. I could wake up and listen to the shows that I enjoyed. Too bad you removed that ability. Your app is mediocre now. That was your competitive advantage in the marketplace. That’s why I spent the $10 for the pro version of the app. Can I get my money back? I may as well just use the listnr app now. How is your app any different now?! It’s not.

Deleted all my recordings, I’m returning the favor.. App update deleted all my recordings. Terrible thing for an app to do to a customer. Yes, they claim it was for legal reasons, but the app should have had a better legal team to help argue their case and even if they lost, they should have put giant red-flag warnings on the version of the app that did this. Going back over the app update history, it’s not even clear when this happened. I’m deleting tunein now (to return the “deletion” favor). Older review : Some stations don't work on cell network (repeating and skipping) making the app unusable. As an example kcrw news had huge problems with this app but when using the kcrw app directly all is fine so I know it is a tunein app bug rather than network issues.

Best radio app, BUT…. for the sole purpose of listening to radio stations, this is probably the most stable, easily accessible app. the “BUT…” refers to features that were once available for all users are now only available for premium users. i understand MLB and the NFL but i loved tuning in on saturdays to catch the local radio call of NCAA football games. now, it’s only available for premium users. i’m thinking that sooner than later the entire platform will be for premium users only? not sure where or how they came up w their price point but it seems way off.

Classic profit eyes instead of user desire. TuneIn Pro was the go-to radio app for years. It was fantastic and did what you wanted: radio streams from around the globe, piped onto your iPhone, ability to record streams and listen later or to have offline, local radio stations, web radio, etc. But they got greedy. Sold out their users for their own profit. “Pro” took away recording. “Premium” showed up in its stead with a subscription model for new content, clearly negotiated with content providers—the very reason they had to get rid of recording. Sad to see the fall from glory, but if you’re interested in an app that lets you stream anything you want for whatever purpose you want, this is no longer your app.

Keeps playing ads when losing connection.. Awful app that tries to insert advertising - even in this so called “Pro” version that I PAID FOR. I listen to local NPR station (OPB, Oregon Public Radio) on public transportation or while walking or biking. Whenever cell service hiccups, or wifi tries to connect, it replays an ad—not once or twice, but over and over. It’s not a pleasant experience, making using this app unlistenable. I’ve sent feedback to TuneIn Radio and I’ve heard nothing back. I can’t believe that I paid money for this, the “Pro version?!” at one time. I’m using the iHeartRadio app now, and it has none of these problems. I’m able to listen to OPB without it stuttering there. In fact it works wonderfully. Download that instead.

Great Service, Awful App. The TuneIn service is a great alternative to services like SiriusXM Internet for users like me who subscribe for the news and talk channels and podcasts. However, the IOS app constantly skips, rewinds and repeats. And despite touting the premium service as commercial free, I find that the service will push TuneIn stream commercials when you first ‘tune in’ to channels like CNN or MSNBC. The FAQ says that they are just passing through adverts that are part of the content provider’s stream, yet I know from my experience with the non-premium version that the ads playing are from TuneIn. This is misleading at the very least. That said, the variety of content is awesome and if it weren’t for the awful performance of the app, I’d rate the service higher.

TuneIn: A Needed Life Raft. Had been cultivating this app for some time. Since before I even had an iPad and interacted with Apple primarily thru my old iPod touch. Became necessary recently when my old standby for podcasts, Stitcher, was discontinued by its parent company, Sirius. It works fine. Has all the bells and whistles that my old app had. Been listening at 1.5 speed and if I try listening at normal speed it sounds like they’ve all had lobotomies. The app makes it easy as well to dial in the speed you want.

Good but don’t like the trick pro $9 service. Tune in is great and I have the version where I can record which cost only a little bit to add that. However about a year ago they started tricking people into getting a nine dollar a month plan which I had to get Apple involved in to remove from my bill. So four stars for a fantastic app which gives you excellent access to radio around the world. Minus one star for the in-app purchases that irritate and potentially cost you lots of money that you didn’t want to spend with their pro version

So disappointed. This used to be one of my favorite apps for listening to radio. First they add the mandatory commercials so if I am trying to listen to the end of a close game, I’m pretty much going to miss some important stuff. Lately, one of the recurring commercials is about an adult store and adult products (!!!). So have fun listening to that with parents or friends. And finally as others have mentioned, they have removed the forward or rewind function from your recordings. That defeats the whole purpose. So good luck trying to listen to something from your recording that occurs after 90 minutes. No way to fast forward. You have to listen to the whole thing and if you miss it, you have to start all over again. Who designed this???

Solid App, Needs One New Feature. I’ve been using this app for years, and it’s great for podcasts and listening to my local NPR station. My experience lately hasn’t been as great, because I checked out a bunch of new podcasts recently that I won’t ever listen to again, and I’ve hated having them clogging up my Recents (which is where I’ve always checked for new episodes and launched my podcasts). I finally went through the exercise of starting 20 podcasts I enjoy back-to-back to get all the junk out of my Recents, but then I accidentally started Fresh Air from some random radio station airing it, and now I’ll have to do it all over again to get it out of my Recents. I’ve started shopping around for other podcast apps out of sheer annoyance, but I will more than happily come back once you allow users to edit their Recents. Thanks!

my favorites keep moving!. A new "feature" is leaving me infuriated! I drag the favorites in my long list to the order in which I want them (thematically grouped but by preference within a group), and the next time I look at the list, TuneIn has scrambled the list order into something totally useless to me. Now I can't find stations and sometimes forget I even have some particular favorite. After all, I've input favorites into multiple streaming apps. Who can remember which list contains what? I need to SEE them. MY chosen visual representation IS my memory! So if you allow manual reordering, you need to leave things where the user put them. If you really feel the need to have the app play with list order in its own (but why? what business is it of yours?), the app needs a settings switch to choose manual vs automatic ordering of the list. I've use TuneIn for years. That could end over this. I'd have commented in the app, but it requires a login. No thank you.

Not what it used to be. I loved this app for years. It allowed me to hear radio stations from other countries. Little by little though, issues appeared. The app restarts by itself fairly often. Other times it skips to a different random station. We have lost the ability to rewind if you missed something, and the worst: some channels when you start, give you the most annoying, loud, long commercial. And I cannot fast forward as I could before. It is becoming painful. I have paid for supposedly eliminate commercials but nope. Everything I hear has commercials, and I said the worst are at the beginning when you first tune in.

Getting better but not there yet. You’ve added a new feature. Scanning through programs on, for example, Jazz 88. There’s a scanning feature instead of letting you pause and then go back and listen again where you left off. If you get a phone call or posit for any length of time you lose your place. Not fond of this feature. I’m downgrading to three stars Also, I’ve been trying to add new favorite channels or stations but for some reason it will not allow me to do this. I cannot delete any stations from favorites either. This app is getting worse instead of better.

Grrrr! I paid for “no commercials”.... ...years ago, back before they added another version (“premium”), but now I’m being bombarded with TuneIn-based ads, harassing me to pay MORE for Premium, in addition to those ads that might be incidental to a commercial station’s own broadcast, and I’m getting fed up. My favorite local station (KHVH) isn’t even included, and more and more often my prior Favorites are being replaced with their insipid “Hey, TuneIn listener - this station is no longer available” recording. Very sad, and just plain wrong...Mike in Honolulu, Oct. 10th, 2018

Long time pro user. I have been a long time tunein fan it has always been my go to app for talk radio, podcasts, and audio books. I have probably been using tunein for 5+ years, been a monthly subscriber for 3+ years and remember paying extra for the pro app way before tunein really caught on. I was really disappointed when they stopped offering audio books because they where a huge value and was worth paying for. Then tunein slowly started removing all of my favorite podcasts until there was basically nothing left but npr. So at this point there where only about 3 talk shows left that I’d occasionally listen too definitely not worth 9.99 a mouth.

Offers recording and pausing live radio.. I appreciate the fact that I can pause and record live radio much like a podcast would but doing it live is a nice feature. I would like to see a 30 second forward button and a 15 second back button in order to quickly find my place in a pause or recording. Please add that to make it a 5 star app! I would like my list of favorites more readily available and for the list of stations to not be so buried.

Way better than IHeartRadio!. Way better than IHeartRadio! Does not ask you for that stupid Facebook login like IHeartRadio does. Has a Nice programable recording setup for your favorite radio shows too! LOVE IT!!! It needs "Playback Speed Control" added to it though! If they added the ability to be able to playback tracks and live radio that is buffered at 2X and 3X standard speed do we could all save time listening to both recorded podcasts and streamed tracks then this would be the ultimate radio app on ITunes. Also wish you could record to MP3 so you could download it to your computer.

I am paying $10 a month and still getting ads!. I’m sick of it. I started with tune in Pro with the promise that MSNBC would be ad free. And initially they did a great job in filling the ad space with “news from earlier today”. Now easily half of every adbreak time Tunein is still running the F’ing ads. Sometimes they cut the regular programming early to go to these outbreak fillers. Sometimes the ads start and then eventually they get around to switching to the alternative news piece. Regularly they in that alternative news please a full hour and a half early. You don’t do your job - you don’t get paid.

Terrible connection handling. This used to be my favorite streaming app. However, over the last few updates the app’s ability to handle brief connections interruptions has degraded significantly. When jumping from WiFi to cellular the app can’t pickup the stream again, it just keeps repeating within the buffer parameter. The only way to fix it is to wait 5 to 10 minutes or stop and restart the stream. It’s ridiculous, this doesn’t happen with any of the other streaming apps I use. If you don’t experience this issue this app will probably become your favorite as well, though I would advise using the free version before you buy pro.

I’ve got tunein pro but tunein premium no.. I’ve had this app for several years & decided to try tunein premium, luckily there’s a week free trial because I love music so much. So I put several of the exclusive stations in my favorites to listen & they would go back to the previous song that was played, the other content on here works flawlessly though I must say but I’m not paying $9.99 again for that because I’ve already paid $9.99 for the app itself to get what I already have.

Absolutely no longer worth $9.99 a month!. I purchased a premium subscription after the tune in app offered game play-by-play for major league baseball and the NFL. They had a lot of channels that were specific to my favorite teams. I also liked not listening to commercials on some of the news channels like MSNBC. No they no longer offer any sports related content, no play-by-play or sports channels. Also, often times when I’m listening to one of the news channels that are supposed to be advertising free, ads will play. And they still charge $9.99 a month. The app drops a lot and makes you listen to the preamble commercial over and over again before the stream will restart. I am canceling my premium subscription.

Tune In loses ability to Record. Makes listening to radio very easy and convenient. But I am downgrading from 4 to 2 stars. Two complaints: when new iOS became available, Tune-In became buggy. Even when station is playing scheduled recording doesn't take place reliably. Also, I would like to see the ability to record happen based on time, in the background, and without the App needing to be open and playing. What's the point of timed recording schedule if you need to be listening to your program in order to record it. 2nd Update: Call to support about Crash trying to use Record Timer didn't get back to me after their first suggestion to Force Quit App which I had tried before calling support. Problem has now gone unsolved for months. 3rd UPDATE: Now 1 Star - Tune in was pretty good and useful to record shows during extremely early broadcast times. Over years “improvements” made it less so. Now October 2020 it is almost useless. It is just like every other radio app. early broadcast times. Over years “improvements” made it less so. Now October 2020 it is almost useless. It is just like every other radio app.

Great app......at one time!. I have to agree with a lot of the comments about what exactly a paid subscription actually consists of. I had paid for a pro version awhile back or whatever it was called at the time. I did have commercial free radio and no ads but then they decided to add a tier to their subscription which required me to pay once again to take away commercials and ads which I think is totally wrong and tells me what the company really cares about which is money and not customers that paid into their company when it was getting off its feet. I hope they realize what they are doing and fix things and not be so greedy before they lose more customers.

A Former 5-Star App. This app is a former “editor’s choice.” And at one time it deserved it. Since iHeart Radio either bought or inhabited the bodies of the developers, features have disappeared, the app crashes or just decides to quit randomly. The final straw for me was the addition of Salem News, an extremist propaganda outlet, to the “featured” list, after having suffered through a misrepresentation that NFL games would be carried (hint: all you get is a blackout recording on a loop). They promise a lot, that at one time they delivered. No more.

I love TuneIn. I’ve listening for some years now. I’ve move a lot due to the military and love and appreciate the fact that I can listen to local stations where I may have previously lived. I love the recording feature on Tune In Pro...allows me to catch up on shows and rewind or fast forward. I don’t know of any easy way to get recordings off phone and onto computer or other device...please try to improve that. As long as it’s in the current format and improving I’m onboard!

Upside-Down. Avoided updates for this app. for years, as multiple times in the past, the updates would break the app., so wanted to just stick with a stable version. Then, a month or two back, accidentally clicked on TuneIn with the other updates, and now, I'm stuck with an app. that forces the orientation to what is probably the iPhone-default, which the way I use my iPad, happens to mean that either I have to use the app. upside-down, or have every other app. upside-down, or constantly rotate the iPad back and forth. The first of these options is proving the least inconvenient, whilst also causing me to daily curse whichever developers thought this was a good idea...

Good only when. This app is only really good when you’re stationary in the same WiFi all day or on your data all day...once it hops from different areas to other WiFi 5 gHz it keeps repeating a section of the radio feed for a good 15 secs on loop. I would have to either fast scrub or just restart the app...very annoying specially when you’re listening at a live podcast on interviews or games on. They need to fix this seems to happen a lot.

Used it be more stable and some poor design choice. I've been using the tune in radio for several years now, but I can't say I'm happy with the updates.... An annoying bug present for a long time still hasn't been fixed: - the "< 30" or "> 30" buttons have sometimes unexpected and unwanted behaviors, like for example: pressing "> 30" will just jump forward by 20 or 30 minutes out of nowhere... A stupid design choice: - when the Bluetooth speaker gets disconnected, instead of pausing the streaming radio, TuneIn just consider that you just decided to STOP the streaming, doing so cancelling all previously buffered track. Why? Especially with potentially some Bluetooth instability, it's really annoying... The iWatch support is way worst than before, why not keeping the 4 radio icons view? Allowing for quick change.... My final pet peeve is regarding the removal of the car mode (which happened a while back).... I listen to TuneIn a lot while driving and now I just cannot change station anymore... as it would require to spend a lot of attention to the app.... Please bring the car mode back!!

Used to be a great radio listening app!. I’ve been a user for years and have enjoyed listening to radio stations from around the world but recently this has become an app that has some bugs. The most frustrating one is that when you open the app it opens to a blank screen. I’ve deleted and reinstalled several times and it might work a day or two but then it does it again. And the past few months while listening to local stations it will drop the station rather frequently and then I’ll have to restart it. It’s become very frustrating for an app that I use a lot. Hope the developers can get this fixed or they will lose another subscriber.

Disappointed. For the last year I listened to tunein for the Audiobooks they offered. It was wonderful service. Enjoyed so many books. They have now discontinued the audio books piece of their business. They didn't give notice just cut you out and made it difficult to add new books and then one day no more new books. Communication with them was never very good when had problems. I also found them very male centered in their offerings. When I started using TuneIn I would of rated it 5 star despite difficulty getting help with problems. But with the lack of timely communication and byebye of the audiobooks it only deserves 3stars.

A bit pricey ($8/mo) but like the audiobooks. Being able to listen to my favorite radio stations, podcasts, many AND a few audio books is quite nice. Equally good is the ability to record a show and listen to it lately. My one wish would be for them to expand the selection of nonfiction books to listen to. My only real complaints is the LACK OF TECH SUPPORT RE the rare time there is a technical issue. They just will NOT respond; frankly, at $100/year they SHOULD at least respond to email.

Not happy with latest update .... I have enjoyed TuneIn Pro for many years and consider myself an early adopter but the latest version doesn’t have the ability to go back in a broadcast in 30 second increments. That was a very useful feature for me because sometimes you miss something, or you just want to hear a section of a broadcast again. Other than that there still seems to be a problem with live broadcasts repeating themselves. Is that a buffering issue when sometimes a 30 or 45 second part of a show repeats itself over and over again? I’ll still use the program almost every day but these issues are VERY annoying.

Me. I have switched to other sources to listen to many live broadcasts because your app has now become SO GREEDY to make me listen to an ad EVERY TIME there is a break in my phone or Bluetooth connection. I don’t have a problem with your playing an ad on first start up, but I am SO TIRED OF your recent change to force me to listen to more ads when I switch from Bluetooth to earbuds to speaker or put down Bluetooth because I am so tired of the repetitive and insipid ads. Same if I get a text or phone call. Any interruption at all to the stream and I get a repeat ad. An NO, $10 a month for premium is too much for a retired guy.

Disappointed in new update!. I’ve used Tunein Pro for many years as my primary radio source and have loved it. One of my favorite features was that I could pause the app to answer a question or dry my hair then pick up where I had left off or backup 30 seconds to listen again. Something happened in this update - that feature is gone. Now it’s the same as my car radio. I’m so disappointed. Update: tune in pro is no longer different from other listening apps. I’ve decided to delete it since I’mnot using it. I had hoped the pause feature would be restored in the update- I understand now that the change was deliberate.

Did TuneIn Die?. I’ve been a big fan of TuneIn since like 2008, and pay for the premium service but, like others, I can’t understand what happened with this new “Black Screen of Death” we have now. Worse still, after like week of complaining reviews, the developers have not addressed this by dropping an update that fixes it. Why not? Is the company suddenly dead? Should we all cancel our premium subscriptions and move to another app? But, is there any other app where I can listen to live cable news channels and international radio stations? Very sad!

Ads Ads. I used to love this app and I’ve had it for a long time. I went through the transition where you could not record your favorite shows and replay it later. Now it’s got to the point where you cannot even listen to the concept of a show. For one instance every 20 seconds there is a ad commercial. I’ve hear the same ad in the span of 90 seconds which the station hosts start saying the same thing over and over again. Which cuts in to the commentators opinion or a callers statement. I understand the opening of the stream you must have a ad but it’s the same all thing over and over again. I will see if they change anything or possibly look for alternative.

Recent Stations Cleanup. Overall a decent app, however one peeve I have with it, is the inability to clear recent stations. TuneIn saves your recent station history forever. I’ve only listened to 4 stations in the app since downloading it nearly 10 years ago, but now only use the app for one station. It can be quite annoying because sometimes the station will switch, probably due to bad UI design in the iPhone or Apple Watch, but only to saved stations. Clear recent stations, and this problem goes away. The Funny part is that one of the stations doesn’t even exist anymore, yet there it is, right in the list forever.

Why ruin it?. I listen to my news everyday on this app and loved it until two weeks ago when they started pushing commercials at least five times every ten minutes. I purchased the pro access to avoid this yet I am afraid ambition is creeping in and now that the TuneIn Premium access is available this pro version is pestered with annoying repetitions of commercials. I can no longer listen to my news and make sense of what they are saying due to the ridiculous amount of commercials.

Do developers use the app. I swear the developers don’t even use the app. What is most important after discovering a station and marking it as a favorite? Answer, quickly selecting it from Favorites when you reopen the app. Now with the latest update you must now click three times to open one of your favorite stations, before it was two. Extra folders have been added. Why can’t the first screen you see be Favorites? Does anyone do usability studies? C’mon, make the app easier to use, not more convoluted. I also want to be able to sort my Favorites from within the app, not have to log into a computer. Thanks

Disappointed. I’ve had tune in radio for 12yrs or better ! I recently purchased TI pro to eliminate commercials when listening …. I love this app but would like to see that commercials are eliminated with the pro version …. I’m listening right now to a news channel and am listening to my 4th commercial ….Now on commercial #6 …..🙃 I will go back to basic tunein if the commercials continue ! Hope I don’t have to !

(Used to Be) One of my Favorite Apps!!. Tunein used to be one of my all time favorite Radio/Music apps overall. I was highly disappointed when the Recording feature was removed!!!! I initially thought that I was not signed in or there was some technical issues; but to later find out that the feature was removed was like finding out that there is NO SANTA! And that WWE Wrestling is Fake!! Please find a way or some loophole to make this App Great Again!! PLEASE!!!

Crashes and freezes. The latest couple of updates have backtracked on usability. The app freezes and crashes almost always, especially when you try to fast-rearward or forward. Same happens when you switch to another app temporarily, which causes TuneIn sound to stop, but when coming back to it, streaming doesn’t resume seamlessly, but app freezes and have to shut down and restart app, missing the previously played content that would supposedly be saved there to listen.

After many years - dead to me!. Wow, they took away the record feature which was all that was left of the Pro app I bought long ago...you killed yourself. No Pro app user will go Premium and now an army of us will sing disgust of your actions and let all know you don’t have a good station line up at all...so many dead stations that you no longer have access to. Shame... I have loved TuneIn Pro for many years- please get the record feature fixed ASAP. Taking this away on top of losing so many stations I listen to will be the end of TuneIn for me after so long of loving this app enough to pay for it when most apps were not paid apps. Please get this straightened out.

TuneIn. Great App overall. Needs solid, reliable Improvement in two areas: 1) When paused, app sometimes does not start up in the same place as paused. 2) App is still skipping back" 15 seconds or so, much like an old record player. Very strange and very frustrating. These anomalies are still occurring. We have a strong wifi system and generous buffering, so we hope that TuneIn can solve these problems soon. Keep up the good work !

A small miracle. As a lifelong radio fan and one late come to ham radio, I never dreamed I’d get to listen to world radio with the greatest of ease and with unimaginable range of choice. Beyond even that, I’m able to receive the progressive podcasts that keep me very well informed (I don’t know if the app also caries right wing nonsense: hope not, but never checked). I’m aware that a paid version exists, but I believe I have other access to the few things I’d be inclined to follow. TuneIn is by far my most used and most valued app.

I use TuneIn all the time. I don’t get reliable radio reception where I am, and the stations’ own apps don’t keep playing in the background when I switch to another app. Tunein plays in the background, and includes stations from everywhere. I can find my favorite stations easily in "Favorites". I miss a feature that it used to have in the paid app: being able to record or rewind and play back—that was great if I walked out of the room and missed something. Also, it can be very slow to start up sometimes.
