Thailand Radio Lovers

Posted on December 14, 2010

Use this iPhone app to listen to Thai Radio anywhere around the world. There are other radio apps out there but this is certainly one of the best. The ThaiRadio - Thailand Radio Lovers app has a number of features that makes it better than its rivals. For a start, it will update the stations for you without having to synch to iTunes. There are already many Thai stations and more are promised. On the main screen, you can see icons for stations that you have chosen as "favourites". You can have as many as you like as you can swipe this to see more. You can also change the order. All of my favourite stations are here and as an extra bonus there is also all the main BBC radio stations as well as VOA. An interesting feature is that you can record any of the stations at any time. The saved file can be sent to a friend by email or you can easily connect via WiFi to you web browser to download to your PC. The file format is .m4a which opens in my WinAmp programme.

Another couple of features are the sleep timer and the scheduler. So, if you are listening to the radio in bed, you can set it to turn off after a certain period of time. You can also add a schedule to have it turn on at a certain time. This can be set for today or for every Monday or every Wednesday. In addition, you can choose which channel you want. Presumably this is intended to be used as an alarm clock to wake you up in the morning. If you just want it to work Monday to Friday then it is easy just to choose these days. With iOS4 you can listen to the radio in the background while using Twitter or surfing the Internet. If you want an easy to use radio app for Thai radio stations then I recommend ThaiRadio - Thailand Radio Lovers app. The present price on iTunes is only 99 Cents.

COMPETITION: If you visit this blog within the next 24 hours you have a chance of winning a copy of this app. We have three to give away. All you have to do is leave a comment below. It is that simple. Then on Wednesday night in Thailand we will put all the names into a randomizer and will pick the top three names.

Hi Richard, are you familiar with ‘Tune-in’ radio? If so how do you think it compares? It sounds similar but is there a reason to pick one over the other (apart from price)? It’s probably the app I use most of all on iPhone next to Facebook.

Wayne, yes ‘Tune-in’ radio is the app that I have been using a lot up to now. I like it a lot and I can’t see much point of you buying both. However, this new one does seem to have more Thai radio stations. You can also set a schedule and do sleep mode. At the end of the day it all depends on what you want to get out of it. I have only been using the Thailand Radio Lovers app for a few days so too early for me to say whether I will switch.
