Static Radio

A side-loadable Android internet radio app for stations you actually curate yourself — no built-in directory, no accounts, no cloud sync. Everything lives on your device.

Built as a snappier, more personal alternative to apps like Transistor: add stations by pasting a stream URL or searching Radio Browser, tag them with your own genre/mood/style vocabulary, place them on a world map, and bookmark SoundCloud/Mixcloud DJ mixes alongside them.

Features

- Add stations by manual stream URL, Radio Browser name search, or Radio Browser genre-tag search - List, grid, and map views of your station collection, with favourites, popularity tiers, and live-broadcast time windows - User-defined genre/mood/style tags — not scraped from unreliable station metadata - Saved Mixes: bookmark SoundCloud/Mixcloud DJ sets with auto-fetched title/artist/artwork, tracklists, and share-to-app support - Playback: Media3/ExoPlayer with software auto-gain (internet radio streams carry no loudness metadata), a configurable buffer, and a persistent now-playing bar with live ICY metadata - Sleep timer, and Android Auto support — browse and pick a station from the car screen, not just play/pause - Full-fidelity backup/restore for both stations and mixes (own zip format), plus one-way import from Transistor collection exports - Post-brutalist Material You visual style — raw concrete tones, one accent color, hard keylines instead of soft shadows
