Triode - Internet Radio

Using it for years. This is by far the best MFI/iCloud Radio app for iOS/iPadOS/MacOS. Keep up the good work guys!

Best internet radio app available. Clean, fast and beautiful. Wish it was more popular.

Do a watch app!

I bought the lifetime subscription a year ago. About 2 weeks ago some of my stations would no longer connect even though they were coming up on the search - I wrote to the developer with no response. I was able to manually remap the stations but as of today 3/25 the app gets killed in the background. I suspect that this is something to do with os 17.4 but I also suspect that the developer won’t fix this anytime soon. There is no explicit setting to allow this app background refresh. So now it’s a useless app that streams for 15 seconds and then gets killed.

Having used many different radio apps on our iPhone, we think this is one of the best. Relevant and pertinent functionality galore. For instance, before installing this free app, we would tell Siri to play one of our favorite radio stations (such as Metaverse Radio WMVR-db Chicago) and 30% of the time, it worked. But since installing Triode and confirming the proper voice commands via its info tab, Siri has nailed it 💯%! Also, with its companion Apple TV app & AirPlay, you're set to listen anywhere at home including HomePod. And on the road, the CarPlay & Siri Shortcuts keep you free from distractions. Great job, Iconfactory.com!

Good selection of streams.

There are *so many* streaming radio apps out there. Some are tied to a particular service or broadcaster (Audacy, TuneIn, I Heart Radio, Sirius XM, etc.) But none of them are built to put your interests first, except Triode. It has the best directory of stations, the best stock favorites list, and the best developers behind it – a team with a long track-record of making first class, user-centered software. As a life-long fan of broadcast radio, especially AM and shortwave, it can sometimes feel like my listening options are shrinking. But online streaming is going strong, and a world of amazing stations are just waiting to be found in Triode. If I had one wish for the app, as ridiculous as it sounds, I love the option to introduce some user-configurable artificial static or warble into the output. Download this app, and once you’ve sat with it a bit, buy it. Solid software built for you, not data brokers, is far too rare in iOS-land. This is it.

Cannot pause, skip forward or backward. No Lock Screen controls. Cannot get rid of developers suggestions. Too bad.

I came back to Triode after trying other options. I still think it’s the best option, but I can’t figure a few things … when I previously used this app (I had paid for it three years in a row), I could see the artist, album art, track for every song for FIP Monde, which I listen to almost all the time. When I came back to Triode recently and purchased the ‘forever’ option, I no longer see this info. I just get the generic FIP Monde art and have to tap on Shazam to ID the song. It shows up briefly on the screen, then disappears. Did something change to make this not possible? I also use to see a + button to quickly add a track to Apple Music, but I no longer see that, either. I’m thinking I must be missing something, but checking the support I don’t see how to fix this. Still, great app. The buffering is superior to other apps I’ve tried, so it doesn’t drop out as often in CarPlay, it seems to me.

Downloaded this app and purchased “forever” subscription. First issue, forever should mean forever. Three years is not forever. Second issue. Searched for BBC Radio 1. I was presented with 6 or 7 different choices. None of them worked. Got an error on every one. Popped over to TuneIn and ran the same search. One option. Played immediately. How do I get a refund. This app simply doesn’t work.
