Broadcastify App Reviews

Ive been listening to feeds on the Broadcastify website for a long time and I was glad to see that there is finally an app. Its very well done and easy to navigate through. I have had no problems so far. ⭐️ 5/5 for a version 1.0 app!

Well maybe more than a couple… I got a pop-up ad that came up and did a countdown before the ‘X’ appears to close it. Then it wouldn’t close. There does not appear to be an option to remove the ads. If I look in the “Browse Feeds by Metro Area”, Ottawa isn’t listed there, while smaller cities are, like Charlottetowne, Winnipeg, Moncton, and Prescott. Must be an American app - Americans just don’t seem to get this thing to the north of them called Canada (and its capital). It seems to want me to approve it sending me notifications, but I can’t imagine why… and it doesn’t try and explain that. I’m sure they did this for a reason, but it doesn’t explain it in the app. There’s a “Global Settings” screen, with exactly one option. No option to always open to my favourites page for example… There’s another page with an option to log in (but I need to go to a web page to create said account). There’s no explanation as to why I might want an account, like if I get any additional functionality or do they just want my email address? Again, maybe there’s some benefit, but the app says nothing. It’s nice to be able to play these feeds, but what is the advantage over playing the same feeds with another app like 5-0 Radio, or TuneIn Radio - or the hundred or so others? And with the pop-up ads, it makes no advantage.

The amount of pop ads you get when using is terrible. Im deleting this app and finding another app.

Easy to use. About the same as the other apps. I expected more since they host the the scanner feeds. No access for feed providers to make adjustments to their own feed. That is mainly what I was looking for.

I like it. Easy to use. No issues.

This app is great! I enjoy listening to the feeds on here but one problem, most times I turn my phone screen off after turning the app on, the app crashes..... Completely stops working and wont open for a few mins.

Great App. Only thing that would make it better is if you could see the town name that is talking so that in regional areas you can see which town is talking

Great easy to use interface but.... I have my iPad turned all the way up and the audio is so low I have to be within a foot of the iPad to hear anything. TURN THE VOLUME UP! The website is louder. I would have just stuck with that and not purchased the app had I known how bad the audio was. Disappointed!

I have a paid broadcastify acct and the app is the perfect companion! Flawless! I do not get pop ups due to my act status, but my secondary free scanner apps all have them. Not sure why some rank apps low solely on an annoying industry norm.

This app should remove the advertisements for premium Broadcastify subscribers.

Would gladly pay to lose the ads. The UI isnt very attractive. Opening graphic doesnt fill up the iPhone 6+ screen. Make the app brighter and nicer. I hate that it stops when you move off of wifi. That should be an option that can be toggled on/off.

Select a channel - get a pop-up.

Are you for real? Each time you select a feed a pop up ad appears. Uninstalled within 5 minutes

Like the layout of the app, but the full-page ads are unacceptably obtrusive. Why not have a full-time ad at the bottom of the app screen?

Ridiculous amount of pop up ads every time you return to the menu from a scanner a timed pop up advertisement takes over the screen. Furthermore, I have listened to several different scanners and its hit and miss on if the scanner works

Its a great app but wow never ever seen so many adds on a app before.

I expected so much more. The RR/broadcastify websites are incredibly useful. This app looks straight out of a 1990s geocities website. The interface is clunky and ugly, and the ads are obnoxious. I would much rather have a paid high-quality app to supplement the site than a free app like this.

Had no issues signing into my RR account and listening to feeds. I havent had any ads pop up probably since Im a premium member.

Been waiting a long time for this app to come out and I have to admit, Im kinda disappointed. All the feeds are here and seem to work good, its just over saturated with ads. Give us a break!!

This app works great!! Simple and easy to use. Once I signed in with my premium account no ads were displayed.
