About this app
Aerial is a lightweight Android radio player.
Features
- Search for stations using the Radio Browser API. - Add stations manually when a stream URL is known. - Play live streams with Android media controls. - Save favorite stations. - Switch between list and grid station views. - Store station logos locally for faster loading. - Export and import stations, settings, and saved logos as a zip backup. - Adaptive launcher icon with Android themed icon support.
Data And Backup
Aerial stores stations in Room, preferences in DataStore, and downloaded station logos in internal app storage under logos/.
The in-app export/import feature is the supported way to move user data between installs. Android system backup excludes the internal logo cache to avoid large or stale auto-backups.
Privacy
Aerial does not include advertising, analytics, tracking SDKs, Firebase, Crashlytics, Google Play Services, or user accounts.
