Internet Radio Vinyl Edition

About

Internet radio as a turntable. You put a station on like a record and lower the needle. Hold the phone still and the stream plays clean. Move it and it scratches. Move it too much and the needle jumps off — the station is gone until you set it down again. That is the whole app. No score, no timer, no ad break in the middle of a song. STATIONS Add station manually or search a online list. What you add goes to your favourites and starts the next time you open the app. Every station is free and stays free. A SIDE RUNS OUT AFTER 30 MINUTES Then you hear the run-out groove and turn the record over. If you would rather not, buy Auto-Reverse once. THE TURNTABLE The shelf holds heavier tonearms and finer styli. A heavy arm stays in the groove longer; a fine stylus makes the scratching softer. Everything is a one-time purchase. No subscription, nothing that expires. HARDCORE MODE For anyone who finds it too easy: the slightest movement is enough. It is the only thing on the shelf that makes the app harder instead of easier. IN THE BACKGROUND The stream keeps playing with the screen off, with controls on the lock screen. There is a pocket mode that suspends the mechanic — otherwise the needle would jump constantly in there. Internet Radio Vinyl Edition needs the motion sensor. That is the core mechanic, not a side feature. If you would rather just listen to the radio, you can turn it off in the settings.
