myTuner Radio Pro App Reviews

This application is great - when it works. I have had repeated problems getting it to work reliably, especially when trying to use it with bluetooth headphones. I usually have to reinstall the program and restart my Mac in order to get control of the Output and Input device selections. Using this app I lose control of my audio controls quite often. The new software releases fix some bugs and create other instabilities. I am using Mavericks. Maybe the changes for the newer OSs are breaking things for those of us still using something a little older. I can boot my machine as Yosemite or El Capitan, but I still find Mavericks more stable for me overall use. Unfortunately, this app (Ver 1.7.1) on Mavericks is problematic.

This thing’s been continuously pestering me to rate it, so here I am. Pros: it plays radio. Lots of radio stations. Plenty of local (US) and international. Want to switch between Philadelphia NPR and Kabul rock and Jamaican talk radio? Sure. Cons: UI is a bit clunky. Doesn’t honor iTunes keyboard shortcuts, so play/pause requires you to go hunting through the icon. Expensive Continuously pesters you to rate it

Allows me to listen to stations from around the nation and, to a limited extent, the world. It’s a bit difficult to slog through the stations to pick your favorites, but otherwise the app works as expected.

Solid for some stations but could use some work on streaming others. There are several stations that fail to connect and I would prefer that they just make those unavailable or not viewable rather than me click and be disappointed.

Couldn’t be simpler and streams without stuttering. Organization and favoriting is done well and makes the app a breeze to use. Buy it.

Works great! The only downside is the clunky interface (mainly the size of the window). Highly recommended.

It’s a good App to use with ease. However, the volume control is not working properly. If you use HDMI, the volume stays the same loundless, no matter what you adjust the lever to. Please fix it.

I’d say great, but I find thing lacking. That is the ability to search by genre. If I could do that, it would be great!

Great station selection for the price. No problem setting up on an IMac.

Seems to do everything it says and the only problem I have is I wish there was a small user manual of some sort.

Yes, clunky interface. Great application. Hire a good graphic designer please! It’s 2016.

the free versions had far more station choices and I regret paying for this app only to have it be a scaled back version. Very sad

Nice app.My favorite stations works great and that’s what I needed it for.Simple,easy set up.

I forgot how much I love actual radio stations vs. internet radio only. I love MyRadio Tuner Pro because it has tapped me back into radio while I am at work.

It is perfect for me as my taste in music ranges from hip hop to r&b to pop, and I can find any of my favorites. Great app. Highly recommended.

I’ve been using this app for about a week, and have had no issues. It does exactly what I want and expected it to do.

I tested the free player for a day and decided I would see what significant bonus comes with the paid ($10) version. Basically nothing except it eliminates the nag screen to do the upgrade! No documentation anywhere! I at least expected that it would import my favorites from the Lite version -NOT AVAILABLE. An hour of work wasted. I expected it would let me select low-bit-rate streams as I have to pay for data on a 180 kb/s dsl line - I don’t want to waste my connectivity on having “high quality” streams for talk radio (NPR, BBC…), give me 32kb/s or below if available - NOT POSSIBLE. I have to live with a lot of glitches, pings of 300-800 ms. and half a dozen IP changes a day from my third-world network provider. My Tuner gives up too easily in maintaining or reconnecting to the program I have selected. Give me a control to let it keep trying for my desired time-out. I at least thought it would offer the option of a dock or menu bar icon - NOT. My menu bar is already packed with important things like Menu Meters, IP information, screen sharing, calendar etc. I don’t need to see a big chunk of menubar space wasted because MyTuner wants to tell me it is playing KQED. I know it is playing KQED. There is no published privacy policy but when I start it up, Little Snitch wants to connect to dozens of advertising and analytics services. Why not tell me first what you want to know and why?? Overall, I am not impressed. I suppose I expect much better value for money. Why do code jockey app writers think they know what the customer wants? Do they ever ask what are the really important things in the real world - not on their developer campuses with gigabit internet and 10 second pings. I wish Radioshift were still an option.

I just look for soft instrumental music to play all day or to listen to Public radio and this if east you use and fits my bill. Wish I could just type in the words..soft instrumental..instead of trying to find the right radio station. Also am looking for Christian instrumental music. Perhaps you can tell where to find that. Thank you for this great app.

if you like live radio on your desktop or mobile… this is one of the best apps I have come across.

I am generally pleased with this app. It occasionally drops my station and it can be a bit of a hunt and find stations I would like to access.
