Learning more about Radionomy:

This app version of Radionomy is a well made version of the original. It’s functional and completely does what it advertises. Though the app supports a huge range of stations, nearly more than 7000; still the app manages to stay clean. The background is eye soothing, and the stations are shown in tiles view having their respective covers. When you launch the app, you’ll get the Main Screen of the Radionomy, which contains three catalogs, and they are: Recently Played, Genre, and Top 25. These three catalogs are sufficient enough to find and listen to your favorite station. You won’t find the Recently Played catalog at the beginning, but after you start listening to stations, it gets added in the Main screen. This catalog helps in quickly playing the station which you were previously listening to and as obvious it is the station that you like.

Radionomy - Hits Genre

The Genre catalog contains every music genre available out there, simply click on the desired genre and it will take you to that particular genre’s screen, showing all the radio stations under it, and arranged in alphabetical order. Beside these two catalogs you’ll also find the TOP 25 stations within the app. This helps in listening what other people are listening, and quickly understanding their tastes.
