About this app

With DAB-Z you can enjoy listening to Digital Radio DAB/DAB+ on your Android head unit in your car. You just need a USB DAB/DAB+ adapter, which you plug into your device.

The app also works with mobile phones and tablets that have "USB host" capabilities. Connect the DAB/DAB+ receiver via a USB-OTG adapter to it and start the app.
*** The app does NOT SUPPORT SDR USB adapters ***

Please use an antenna for the DAB/DAB+ adapter that is suitable for receiving DAB/DAB+ signals.

After you initially have scanned for stations you can:
* Easily select station from the list, even using your steering wheel buttons in the car
* Receive text messages ("Dynamic Label Segment") containing the current title and artist, if supplied by the station via broadcast
* Receive pictures ("SlideShow") containing artwork and station logo.
* View details about the station (e.g. ensemble name, service id, etc.)
* Built-in station logos, downloadable station logos
* Add your own station logos
* wide range of settings for layout and behavior of the app
... and a lot more ...

Loved this app for many years but I'm getting increasingly fed up of the annoying white circle play thing that stops the sound every time ignition is turned off back on, what is the point of this? I can't find a setting to disable this annoying feature, get rid of it, I just want it to play the sound not have to restart the sound every time the car is restarted. I look forward to this being addresed or telling me how to disable this annoying feature . Thanks

Your system sends a pause command to DAB-Z apparently. Can be your launcher, or any other app. With the next public release 2.0.226+ there is a Settings->General "Allow other apps to control playback (default enabled)". When you disable this, I expect your issue is gone then. But steering wheel controls are then also no longer working.

I haven't updated my car in ages, but did it today. Didn't even know there was a new UI version. As others have said reception does seem better, but only used it today. TBH I prefer the old UI (hence 4 stars), but after selecting dark mode it's not that bad. Updated station logos using house WIFI, rather than my car data dongle to save data !!

With the latest version all of the problems with the new 2.x version are gone in my case. Works very well and the new interface is quicker and better then the old 1.x. Recommend it. Good job.
