Wookie-Radio

Wookie-Radio plays live internet radio and podcasts in one calm, fast app. No account to create and no ads. It works on its own: nothing to sign in to and no server of ours in the middle.

Wookie-Radio comes with no stations or podcasts built in. You add the ones you like, from public directories or with your own stream address.

RADIO
- Search public station directories and add the stations you like. Your list, your order.
- Favourites, play counters, a power-on station and a sleep timer.
- Play behind live: a 15 or 60 second buffer that rides out weak signal, and a clear message instead of endless retrying on a poor connection.
- A home screen widget with your favourites, and controls in the notification and on the lock screen.

PODCASTS
- Search Apple's podcast directory, follow shows and build a queue across shows.
- Downloads for offline listening, with your own rules for Wi-Fi, mobile data and storage.
- Chapters with jump-to-chapter, transcripts with search inside the episode, per-show speed and skip intervals.
- Catch up on resume: every time you resume an episode, it first rewinds a little (15 or 30 seconds, or your own amount), like a TV recap, so you never have to hunt for where you were.
- Take a break: going away for a while? Tell the app the day you are back. Episodes that come out while you are away wait in your New Episodes list for 3, 7 or 14 days after you return, so you catch up at your own pace and nothing is lost.
- Sleep timer that can stop at the end of an episode.

THE SCRUBBER
- A shuttle scrubber: pull the knob away from the centre to go faster, with vibration ticks at chapters and at the ends of the episode (Off, Light or Strong).

SOUND
- All audio processing happens on your device: a loudness leveler, crossfade between stations, a stereo widener, an equalizer and Voice Clarity for speech.

PHONE, TABLET, CHROMEBOOK AND ANDROID TV
- One app for every screen. On a Chromebook the window keeps its shape and scales as you resize it.
- On Android TV you use the remote: a big, clear screen, an on-screen keyboard, voice search for stations and podcasts, and a quiet screen that fades the controls and shows analogue VU meters, a spectrum or flames while you listen.

YOUR DATA
- Favourites, followed shows, positions and settings stay on your device. If Android backup is on for your Google account, they are included in it. We never see them.
- No account and no advertising. The app talks directly to the stations, podcast publishers and directories you use, plus Google Cast (anonymous usage events) and, only if you use them, song recognition and voice search (your device's speech recognition). Details are in the privacy policy and the Data safety section.

STATIONS AND SHOWS
Wookie-Radio does not host or rebroadcast anything. Station streams and podcast feeds are public and belong to their publishers. Station names and logos belong to their owners; Wookie-Radio is not affiliated with or endorsed by them. Stations you add come from public directories (radio-browser.info) and you can add your own stream address. A station owner can ask for removal at https://almostcyb.org/takedown

FREE AND PRO
Every new install gets all features for 30 days, with no payment details asked. After that a free plan stays: listen to any station and podcast, with limits on favourites, followed shows and some settings. Wookie Pro unlocks everything, as an annual or monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in Google Play (Payments and subscriptions). Restore Purchases is in Settings and on the plan screen.
