Manage FM Radio better with FM Radio App for Windows Phone

While most of the Windows Phone 8 devices have the FM Radio and it works really well, today I discovered one app that really blew my mind and it’s built to manage FM Radio better. As a matter of fact, if you listen to the radio, this is a must have app for Windows Phone users.

Before I talk about the app, lets first talk about what inbuilt radio app has to offer. Two things; One lets you search for channels and switch, Second lets you mark radios as favorite. This app uses the same FM Radio and lets you manage it humanly.

FM Radio App for Windows Phone

Now lets take a look at what FM Radio app has to offer:

Know Channels by Name :  It lists down all the channels by name which makes it very convenient if you are manually selecting one of them. Once you bookmark it, it is easy for you figure out which channel it is, rather than first figure out and then and choose if you want to listen. Also, it lists down all the channels near by you in one go. This makes channel discovery very easy for day-to-day user.

Switch Region: If you are traveling to a new city, just change your location here and find out the common radio stations. It’s that fast. As it lists them by name, it’s easy for you to pick them.

Pin Channels to Tiles: This makes it easier for you to launch the radio directly with channel of your choice. Love this feature.

Know whats going to be played : If you are a pro FM listener, you already know how to find whats going to be played on the radio but if you are new, this app lets you figure out what is going to be player and whats now on the air. It does an auto search on big and then takes you to the website to find out the details.

Remind yourself : So now you the schedule and you don’t want to miss your favorite show. This app lets you create a schedule, but you will have to launch the app manually and switch to station. You can set daily, weekly, monthly, end of he month of yearly reminders.

Manual Tuning: You can manually fine tune frequencies to get better result.

Turn Off : You can manually turn off the radio when you don’t need it.

Search section can be put into settings under menus.  This will reduce clutter. Also Favorites needs to get priority over Program and should be pinnable. That said, it’s a brilliant app and it’s free. Go ahead and download now.

The app is free to download and use but is ad-supported. The dev should give paid version and try as many users might go for it.
