Overview

audioBoom is a user-friendly application that allows users to create personalized radio stations in accordance with their preferences. It boasts a catalog that houses thousands of options neatly arranged into distinct categories. The platform also hosts a collection of some renowned global radio stations like The Guardian, Polydor, Telegraph, The Huffington Post, and Fox News.

Initial Set-up

Upon launching the application for the first time, users are required to select a few stations even if uncertain about their choices. However, the app provides the flexibility to browse and make alterations later. This feature ensures that users are exposed to a variety of content right off the bat, while also allowing the refinement of preferences as they explore the app.

Search Functionality

audioBoom is equipped with a powerful search engine that allows users to search for stations, individuals, or topics that pique their interest. Once located, these can be followed, enabling users to stay in the loop with everything they find intriguing. Users can access their selected stations by simply clicking on the station icons, ensuring a hassle-free listening experience.

Content Storage and Download

Every piece of content that users listen to is stored on the platform. This feature enables users to download content directly to the audioBoom gallery and listen to stories, events, or their favorite music at their leisure. The ability to access content offline increases the app's convenience and usability, especially for those with unstable internet connections.

Content Creation

audioBoom isn't just about listening; it also provides an easy platform for creating one's own radio broadcast. Users can record a maximum of 10 minutes of content which, after editing, can be uploaded to their profile. This allows users to share their perspectives with the rest of the audioBoom community, fostering an interactive and collaborative space for radio enthusiasts.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • GET_ACCOUNTS: Allows access to the list of accounts in the Accounts Service.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • RECORD_AUDIO: Allows an application to record audio.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • BLUETOOTH: Allows applications to connect to paired bluetooth devices.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS: Allows an application to modify global audio settings.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
  • android.permission.SEND_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETED_INTENTS
