It's a bad app it doesn't work
downloaded the wrong app.
radio stations do not work
trash, app sucks doesnt even work 🤦🏽
it only have K-pop
the music is from other countries
3 k-pop stations, and only one of them actually plays k-pop. And then it ignores the ad/dj reduction setting. 2 songs, and already the dj is talking, and then it goes to weather instead of another track. bummer
my favorite radio station was not on there
fails to load stations
doesn't open stuck on the faidr logo. white on blue. s23+
there's been an app update and my issue still hasn't been fixed! Like am I missing something? I've allowed all app permissions etc. previous review: app stays on that purple screen and nothing happens. sad.
before the update, it was awesome. But now it isn't. I would give 5 stars if you can get this fixed. It just stopped playing.
stATIOns cut out too quickly and I don't like it
samsung s24 it's not opening
App has a lot of promise, but upon opening the app, nothing happens. I've installed the app 3 times, even restarted phone and it never works.
can't get past the purple screen
Nothing but purple screen!
won't get past purple screen.tried Uninstaller and reinstalling. same issue.
I know why it's free because all it is is a big purple screen that does nothing else
This is one piece of garbage app! All it does is show a light purple screen and dies nothing else!
App don't even work.
The app still has issues with not loading at all, I can't even sign up or get to the home page!
it doesn't let me go into the game bro like what?!
requires location to work. uninstalled in 2 mins.
would not open. faidr on a blue background is all I get.
won't open because of bugs
I opened random popular station streams from the app directly. All streams played ads as normal, and the "AD Reduced" counter read 0.
please UPDATE THIS APP IT DOESN'T LOAD AT ALL :( 😞
Will not work
Didn't work
It was weird because it took 50 percent of my app storage. Now it's laggy on different apps like warzon and roblox and even youtube
Stuck on the splash screen
When I open the app it just show a purple screen
Pointless in the UK. Zero stations available. A waste of a fiver. Don't bother. I wish I could have given it no stars.
The app won't open so I'm done with it.
It's not an equalizer. It's a radio station.
When I first downloaded faidr was fantastic. I did not care who put the application out for use. This application was incredible. However now the application crashed and it only shows the icon picture. What a waste of time and effort to not go over the application and verify if it was truly ready for use. Where people once raved greatness, beautiful are now saying the application is a piece of 💩
Never worked
🤔 Well this app actually Freezes "often" and therefore is pretty useless to me. I uni stalled and reinstalled etc. Still Freezes Often so I have now UNINSTALLED this application until. Fixed correctly. 😔 UPDATE, PS. Application ONLY has United States Radio Stations. There's nothing to access from accross the pond. Which is Odd because every other Android Radio Application that I have tried for Android, they all have FULL World Access Day ONE. A Extreamly LACKING APP. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Reply to developer: Thank you for responding, but the latest update still freezes, making the app completely unusable. Really excited to try this app, but unfortunately it just shows the splash screen (purple background with faidr logo in white). I've tried clearing cache/storage, uninstalling & reinstalling, with no avail.
Still has a lot of work to it. Spanish channels only have English music. I'm better off learning Spanish going to a Mexican restaurant. Podcasts seem to work. The Spanish channels are completely in English.
we found it great to have album covers but this app is very strange. only plays 30 seconds of each song and finds 5 stations in a search
love it no ads ,I take 3 stars back after updating it stop playing halfway through the song and it got ads now I will be deleting this app
two things about this app really annoyed me. first, it does not have a unified theme. the main page has a white background and the settings menu is dark. please offer the option for a dark theme that would be universally applied. The other annoyance is that you can manually enter in your ZIP code but the app then proceeds to ignore this and nsist that it cannot play the selected station unless you allow location permission. If you have a manual ZIP code setting then honor it!
i liked the music but kept saying close app or wait cause it said not responding
This app worked great on Android Auto for a while, now it won't even open. Is it permanently down?
podcasts stop playing after about 1 minute
Oct 27, 2025: Latest update has a bug and won't allow this app to open on my Android phone. I updated on Oct 27, 2025. I have a yearly subscription that I won't be renewing.
This app doesn't work on the ONN 7' tablet gen. 3 anymore. Whatever starts playing cuts in and out and the app shuts down. It has to be a problem with the unit because it works on my phone. The problem just started today. I hope it can be fixed. Maybe it needs to be updated on here, I updated it on my phone and it still works. It did give an update suggestion the last few times, but now it stopped. Could there be any way to update it? Also, the installation is a bit slow now.
Poor play-through, skips and pauses.
