Review for Stitcher Radio - News & Talk

Posted October 15, 2011 1:34pm by Phil Hornshaw Tags: Podcasts, Music, Tablets, radio, media, audio

APPOLICIOUS ADVISOR RATING:

4 of 5 bars
  • PRICE: Free
  • TASTY: Insane amount of radio show and podcast content.
  • BUMMER: Slightly weird issues with tablet screen optimization, but nothing major.
  • COOL: A list of shows created by the app that’s curated to your interests.

Stitcher is a free app that offers more than 5,000 radio shows, podcasts and live stations on demand, streaming directly to your Android tablet.

The app does a great job of streamlining the process of finding radio shows and making them available by category. You can save shows as your favorites and help Stitcher tune to your tastes by liking or disliking shows. It’s like Pandora, but for radio shows.

Though the interface is really clean, and browsing through content is extremely easy, it doesn’t seem like Stitcher has been fully optimized for tablet screens in some aspects.

Just remember that if you’re using a 3G connection, Stitcher will use a lot of data. That’s not a concern if you're on Wi-Fi, and this app is still a great way to listen to the radio from anywhere.
