FFR on the iPhone


Two points on this issue.

If anyone has an iPhone there is a streaming radio app you can purchase that will allow you to add the FFR stream to your iPhone.  I'm listening via the iPhone right now and it sounds great!  clap.gif

The second point, and I know this is a long-shot, but does anyone know how to create an app for the iPhone?

Local stations in Milwaukee have apps available and they look incredibly simple.  Basically a small logo (which I have) for the store, and then the app itself is just a photo with info on the station and an embedded stream.

There's a tutorial on building apps available from Apple which I'm going to spend some time looking at this week. 

If I could build and offer a free iPhone app for the station that could really start bringing in some new listeners and eventually new forum members!

Speaking of new forum members someone signed up last week as Peppermint Patty but never came back and posted hmm.gif

Aw, I don't know how to build an iPhone app. But that's totally cool! Man, now I really need an iPhone!

I should learn anyway.

People are making a killing doing that.

I saw some guy on the news a few weeks ago, never built a software program in his life.  He read the iPhone app tutorial, built some program and in a year made over a million bucks, $2.99 at a time!

Of course the FFR app would be free, but if you learned how to do it you could build any app you wanted.

That sounds great - I am hooked on these apps (don't know anything about making them though, unfortunately).

Do you know if the FRR-app will also be available for the ipodtouch?

If I can create it yes it will be. The apps are available for both the touch and the phone.

Old habits die hard. I just realized when reading JD's reply that I had titled this thread "FFR on iTunes"

I mean, iPhone of course.

CRAP!

DAMN APPLE!

DAMN STEVE JOBS!!!

CRAPPITY CRAP CRAP!

Looks like you have to have an Apple computer in order to run the development software.

So much for that idea.

Some Kinkos have Macs, but I think they charge you by the hour.

Maybe you can create an app for the Goggle Phones (android is the OS)......they have a marketplace too and it's exp[anding world wide...a good streaming app is what's needed! And it's open source for programming!

 My best friend, who I've told you guys about.  She will - she's just like the busiest person in the world.
