Android basics

Our 15th app category is radio apps and how well they work with Talkback, a category likely to be of particular interest to blind people. We discuss the pros and cons of TuneIn Radio, VRadio, Simple Radio and Anna gives a demo of Radio.Net. Ed also mentions an app which may be of interest to UK listeners from the British Wireless for the Blind Fund, Speech Radio. He also advises that UK listeners wishing to listen to some BBC programming may need to use the BBC Soundsapp exclusively.
