The situation
Listeners needed an easier way to reach the station's live stream on their phones. Until then, they had to find a buried URL.
Who uses it
Listeners using the live stream, the show clock, and lock-screen playback on a phone.
What I built
- A phone app for the live stream, the show clock, and a way to keep the station on the lock screen.
The workflow
Open the station, not a buried URL
The app puts the live stream and the show clock on one screen. Listeners open the station instead of hunting for the old link.
Keep listening from the lock screen
Playback keeps going from the lock screen, so listeners don't have to reopen the app.
What this example covers
One small station using an existing stream: a mobile listening app with live listening, a show clock, and lock-screen playback. This project did not include a website; other platforms or features would need their own estimate.
What this one cost
About $500 to build, then $20 / mo after. A note on what that $500 includes.
These figures describe this project. A different workflow or feature set needs its own build price and care agreement.
What care covered
Support, and changes to the app when the station's stream or schedule changes.
Where it landed
Listeners open the station instead of hunting for it, and keep listening from the lock screen.
Why this page has no name on it
The name stays off this page to respect the station's privacy. The workflow and the price are real.
