Just like Radium for Mac, it has a very minimalistic interface compared to something like ooTunes. I haven't been able to browse the radio directory by nothing other than using the search box, but then I also have this issue with the Mac version. I also haven't seen any way of entering your own URL, sothe only way I was able to get new stations into it was by adding them to the mac app, then letting it sync through iCloud. Othern than that, it's a nice app.

#6 Initial Impressions of Radium
Submitted by Doug on
After 5 minutes, this just might become my favourite Radio tuning app. I like the inclusion of a very simple 3 band equalizer rather than all those noxious cheesy pre-sets for jazz, rock, babble, girgle, etc Maybe future versions will include an optional 10 band equalizer, perhaps with even some parametric option. I love the idea that one can actual establish equalization settings for specific stations. I find the playing screen a little untidy inasmuch as the buttons indicate that they are toggles but don'e in themselves indicate whether for example, the favourite setting is on or off and one has to explore near the bottom to learn which that button is set for, on or off. I am already liking this App more than tunin radio or Ootunes.
#7 Still prefer ooTunes; KING FM

Still prefer ooTunes; KING FM Symphonic channel sounds much better on ooTunes; less aliasing. Also, as you say, the interface is kinda clunky. And not all found stations work.
#8 Radium Perfect Internet Radio
Submitted by Trish on
I just installed this app today. It is extremely easy to use. VoiceOver reads everything! The search feature works very well, weather you put in call letters of a station, or do a search. Just one suggestion, it seems to work for me anyways on my iPhone 6, if I keep the location services on. I guess I accidently switched it off, and nothing was playing when I tapped on a station, but as soon as that was turned back on, all stations are playing, and playing very clearly. I give this app a "Big Thumbs Up! 5/*****!
