Fraud
It offered a free trial, I took it and cancelled immediately after downloaded because I disliked the app and didn’t want to get charged and now they are trying to charge me 29.99 for yearly subscription they are saying I renewed. So now I have reported this to Apple and in the mean time
I can’t do anything on my App Store because if says I owe money to them. Absolute fraud
I can’t do anything on my App Store because if says I owe money to them. Absolute fraud
This app is amazing!
I love this app so much! So many different countries and territories to choose from! You should really add Niue.
Signup required
I shouldn’t have to create an account just to listen to the radio.
FM RADIO APP
Couldn’t even get a radio station on this app without buying additional purchases. Really ridiculous to me as all I wanted to do was to listen to a frequency at the Fitness Center.
Why
Don’t have 100.3 the wolf what??????????????????? Why that’s the most popular one ???????
Can’t get station in Detroit Michigan area.
Give me and avenue to find my local stations. Going on since my subscription started in 2024.
Useless service
I cannot listen to the dodger game because I am 150 miles from the stadium. I have Wi-Fi access and signed up for this radio app and still somehow cannot listen to the game. If I was within 100 miles I would be able to get the game anyway, so why would I need this app?
Subscription
I went to get my three days free and it instantly charged me for a year before I even got my three days free and I emailed them and I can’t get my money back
Greed
Used to listening to local channels on here. You want my money to have me listen to something I can just listen on a radio.

AVOID IF POSSIBLE!!!
I decided to try this app out as an alternative to Apple Music just to see if I’d like it. Not even 24 hours and it was clear I didn’t like it so I cancelled the subscription trial. App STILL CHARGED me but my card was locked thankfully. But now it’s holding up my Apple and basically gave me access for a year when I don’t want it, and both this app and Apple are forcing me to either pay or not be able to download anything else. Do NOT recommend
Scam
Scammed me with free trial and 1 year purchase
Don’t do it
Even when you cancel your subscription, they will still charge you and when you request a refund, they will deny it.
Scam
This app charges you an annual year subscription for $32. Even if you cancel and delete the app within the same day of downloading. It claims it’s a 3 day free trial. Do Not Subscribe To This App!!!
Waste of time and money
Fm dosent work where I am app no good cancel before it charges you
DX Arts
Good
Fm radio app
Another app trying to trick me into paying a monthly fee to simply listen to the radio. It’s an fm radio app, it should just be to download and pick your station. Smh
Paid = ads???
So I’m on the trail deciding whether to stick with the annual plan. This is full of ads every few minutes.. Also, what are the “pro” features exactly? More ads? If I pay for something, it shouldn’t include Geico ads every 3 minutes. And no, the ads aren’t the station’s ads. BBC Radio Manchester doesn’t have Geico ads because a) the BBC don’t have ads b) Geico doesn’t exist in the UK.
Don’t download
I did the free trial and cancelled the subscription before the free trial ended but I was still billed $29.99 for the yearly subscription and the money was taken from my account. This is a scam
Fake
Fake thing
No Sound or Very Little
Doesn’t have the local radio stations I was after!
Awful
It is absolutely impossible to find a radio station. If whoever developed this app allowed you to simply filter your search, I don’t think this would be a problem. Completely nonsensical. Canceling my free trial after less than a day.
App takes control of Lock Screen
App overrides, ignores settings, and takes control of Lock Screen. Never ever override user preferences. I have Lock Screen background set to solid and dark and app shamelessly changes Lock Screen background to bright and colors. Overriding is wrong. This ham-handed recent change of overriding user preference is wrong.
Doesn’t work
Have tried repeatedly - just buffers endlessly & never connects. Not a signal problem - my phone streams fine on other platforms.
Caution *
Even when u cancel a free trial before the date it says they will still charge u $29.99 plus tax no matter what. I’ve been trying to get my money back for an app I didn’t even recognized,never used, never had a profile set up, ect…..they will not do the right thing. Even when it shows it was canceled pay very close attention to your active subscriptions as it will magically reappear over & over. Smh. Do not download a free trial unless u plan on donating $32.46.
Not happy
Got charged randomly for a whole year without letting me know. Can’t find a number to call to cancel. None of the customer service emails work… all I want is my money back and they make it impossible to do that!!!!
useless
useless
Pro version charged my account but I never ordered the pro version!
I was charged $40.00 for the pro version that I never ordered!
Commanders
I cannot connect
Do not download
This app does not work. False ads. And you will never get your refund.
Download a different app.
Download a different app.
Too much money
Not worth the money
Bogus app
Fake app. Should be banned. Fraud
Garbage
Doesn’t have live local has internet prerecorded
Horrible experience!
Absolutely horrible experience was under the impression. It was a basic FM a.m. radio for my kids so I downloaded the app for free and was charged a few days later for 29.99$and can’t seem to contact anyone to be refunded. As I have not even use the app nor do I have any interest.
Can’t cancel subscription!!
Signed up for the subscription but i need to cancel it and I can’t! I’m on day one of the free trial but i no longer need it so I need to cancel my subscription but it doesn’t appear on my list of subscriptions on my iCloud.
The worst
I recommend sirius or pandora for the price. Or just your local radio. Not worth it
Ads over emergency broadcasts
Running advertisements over emergency broadcasts should be illegal. I need to hear where these tornadoes are!
Ads ads ads
3 fullscreen ads within 30 seconds? Thanks, I will pass.
Not free after 3 days. $30/ year.
Searched for a free app and this one popped up, but when I go to use it, it’s only free for 3 days the $30/ year.
Fm radio app
Not interested
Update
App got a full update for the worst, was much better before
This ain’t bad but get yourself a real radio
Why well this app ain’t THaT bad but it is bad cause well I have a real radio and looked if they had radio on phone BUT I saw that BACK FM 100.9 ACTIVA TU MENTE was there so I click and I’m listening to it on MY radio and see that they are like 1 minute back and see my radio is like LIVE and come to this review and to muchBUY THIS BOI so yeah do not get this get yourself a real radio so bye my real radio is playing my fav song
Commercials!
Too many commercials. Some stations want play until after listening to 3-4 commercials. Broadcast gets interrupted mid-song with commercials. Why?
Wish it was free
Pay for radio 3 days free
won't open
I can't comment on "fm radio" bc it doesn't open after downloading
Yearly Subs Only
Give us an option for one time payment to remove ads and pop up’s please. MyTunerRadio does it. Guess I’ll stick with them.
