SR Direkt

SR Direkt is an iPhone-optimized Web client for Sveriges Radio stations. It lets you listen to P1, P2, P3, and any local version of P4.

Why not use the SR app?

The SR app has one major defect: it currently does not use the proper multitasking type. It currently uses task completion backgrounding, which means the app can stay open in the background for ten minutes and then it will get killed. While this doesn't matter so much if all you listen to is Klartext, it does get annoying if you're tuning in live or listening to a longer program.

Features

  • Simple, get-to-the-point interface. Pick a station, press play, and you're done.
  • Background audio that lasts longer than 10 minutes.
  • AirPlay.
  • Remembers what your preferred P4 local station is.
  • Live-updating now playing information (with complementary PHP script, still in development)
