Intuitive interface with a very comprehensive settings menu

It launches directly with the home scree, featuring the option to browse through stations or listen to your own music and watch videos. Users can also sign in to an Audials account by using their Facebook profile or email addresses. If you sign in, you can configure an import/export device, which will allow you to copy media files from/to SD card, cloud storage or PCs.
Browse through all sort of radio stations
You can browse through stations by genre or simply type in the name of a radio station, to get quick access. You can also filter them by country and top artists. The app has a section with top hits playing and one with suggestions of station.
Also, users can add stations to a list of favorites and you can also zap through stations so to find similar ones that match your taste. When you find a song or program that you really like, you record the song or the portion of the show and listen to it later.
More features

You can also create your own preset and save it inside the app. It comes with a sleep timer and alarm clock that you can activate, so that you would wake up to the sound of your favorite station.
