SiriusXM for Android
The help link is broken. Trying to find specific channel numbers requires me to select all channels. Channel numbers don't show when picking specific genres. Online is broken and ancient as well. Both app and website need major overhauls and updates
I'm hardly ever in my car so the app is perfect. If it wasn't for the app I probably would have cancelled by now but it allows me to stream at work and pause when needed. Also the on demand option allows me to listen to shows I may have missed. Great app!
Love sirius. Not this app. Hard to exit from app recently. Randomly says I'm not authenticated and requires me to log in. Could be much better. Updated review : after 2.5 years the latest update seems to have addressed many annoying connection issues so I'm updating my rating to 4 out of 5. Keep up the good work Sirius!
Pay even more money to use a service you already pay to much for. Honestly just subscribe to this on your phone and take it with you instead of paying way to much for every device and vehicle. This is robbery.
I have had XM Sirius now for about 3 years. It has everything I want. I have a portable receiver that I take out of my automobiles put in my garage when I'm working outside. That way that way I can catch up on broadcast that I missed during the week. The programming is excellent. There's a large variety of programming. I am really satisfied.
This app should be free for subscribers with a couple or several items already activated to keep us loyal. This app is not all that without satellite signal you are using your phone signal which doesn't always work in some areas. Plus, this is a subscription " ITS NOT FREE"
You guys are on a roll fixing all the issues!! Thanks! Feel the app could use an GUI update. Plus the settings seem to be buried in the app. The service is good, but the experience needs work. Looking fwd for future updates
App is great! I use it every day at my work. The only problem with this app is, it keeps restarting my phone for some reason. It started doing it one day.. I think after the last update the app had. I have a Samsung s7.
I bought a new car and Sirius XM radio was in it and I fell in LOVE!! I grew up with Alan Hunter and Nina Blackwood and now I have SXM on my cell phone, I listen to the 70's channel the most then the 80'S and All the country music channels after that. DONT change a thing!!
Decent app, the Jason Ellis show and Rude Judes all out show are the best, but the on demand content needs work. It cuts out the music which is half the show and very annoying for on demand listeners. It's a pain trying to find a certain show cause the search jumbles everything together and it's hard to tell what's the real show and what's just an appearance on some other show. I'd like to see on demand content improved.Thanks
I primarily use for listening on demand. The playback control configurations change depending on where the show was recorded from. Maybe segment skip, maybe not, and never a 15 or 30 skip ahead, only back. Very frustrating.
This app has been unable to connect half the time lately. Drives me crazy. When it's working I give it 5 stars, when it's not, 1. Therefore I am giving a 3 star review until they fix it.
Every time I navigate away from the app I get a warning pop-up that the podcast I'm listening to from downloads will be deleted. Annoying. Add a 'Do not show again' option or something?
Seems to malfunction whenever Howard Stern has a big event. Whatever serves house the programming cannot handle the volume and crash. Has happened several times. Most recently, Tuesday March 6, 2018
Highly convenient for listening when out of the truck, but it constantly tries to "recover audio" if not listened to live. Connection often skips ahead and forces me to miss most of the show without hope of recovering it. It wouldn't be so bad if the one show I watched every day was on the On Demand list, but for some reason First Things First is not on the Fox Sports list of on demand shows but their other sports talk shows are...until this is fixed and the app is actually capable of streaming the show without losing sigfnificant portions or forcing me to go live, I cannot give this app a rating higher 3, even then it's a stretch.
I keep losing signal. This can be really frustrating while driving. But it has good sound when it's not dropping out. Also, could you please have more than just one episode of Jamtronica a week?
The layout is a mess, whole UX needs to be rethought out. Does not comply with Android standards for audio, play and pause get out of sync and it will play when other music apps are playing at the same time. In short the app is a mess but at least it plays music.
The music quality sounds canned, because the highs and lows are lost due to the compression. There's allot of good music, but onsidering o have to pay for the right to use the app, after already paying allot for my cars XSM contract it should be a free phone app
Thank you for adding Android Auto support. However I have a few requests: - Stop playing when disconnected from Bluetooth source. Otherwise, when I get out of my car, it keeps playing from the phone which is annoying. - When listening to a live station, I wish the skip buttons would change stations. Also, please add Chromecast support!
Keeps crashing over and over again. Same old dance music. Nothing new. Edm artist have started to suck. They are uaing the same signature beat. Over an over and over again. Its cheap to download good classic edm. CNN has too many ads. Sick and tired of the stop an ad. Get it out of there. I paid for this service.
This app would get a five star review if it stopped deleting all my "favorites" stations after a few weeks. Its pretty irritating to have to go through dozens of channels at a time just to find the 5 or 6 that I listen to the most.
Content is fine. But it may be the worst software I have EVER used. The stream stops constantly (and can't restart itself). It sometimes decides to switch to a different stream (who knows why). The controls don't work. It sometimes loses it's mind and requires restart AND WIFI reconnect. My last month because I refuse to pay for garbage.
Absolutely no app enhancements or changes in years! Just cancelled and switched to TuneIn Radio which has no NFL broadcast delay like Sirius and a sleep timer. If I could give 0 stars I would for not caring about it's subscribers anymore
Does anybody there listen to the customers? You've made it harder to read in changing the font and the size of the font, and the contrast. Instead of seeing what's playing on all the channels you have to go thru 2 choices to get to all channels. For what reason?!? And STILL no landscape. Instead of patting yourself on the back about how "beautiful" the app is, how about making it work and work?!?
Whomever said this app works great is an idiot. You guys really need to fix this thing. It's very frustrating. More than once in the past two weeks has it told me I have not got an internet connection, when I can load iheart and it works fine.
Worst app ever. The fart soundboard apps are better than your garbage. Now your stupid app won't close and keeps opening up in the background. Using it in the car is dangerous because it's so difficult to see and navigate. The old app was easier to see and navigate. I wouldn't waste a penny in this service with a poor quality app like this. IHeart and Pandora can easily fill the gap for free.
Got it right on iphone... What happened here?... To be fair, the newest iterations of the Android app are far superior to previous. However, it does occasionally drop connection on solid wifi or full strength signal over LTE. Works 100% 90% of the time. Nexus 5X.
I enjoy the app because it allows me to listen to a favorite talk show any time, anywhere. I like that one can pause the program and come back to the same spot later. I would appreciate if it could be listened to on more than one device at a time.
The app is Garbage! Since the update, the App doesn't load most of the time until repeated closing & reopening the app. Fix ASAP or I'll cancel my service! Many channels don't allow rewinding. The app needs a UI refresh or overhaul along with getting the bugs fixed, it feels like Beta Version of the App. A lot of the Forward & backward skips don't get you passed commercials. Just overall bad app, which is unfortunate because I love the content.
I love my Sirius XM app not only do I listen on my phone while doing work around the house but I can also listen in my car how great is that. I've got Howard on Channel 100 and Channel 101 I've got Sinatra in the BB King Blues Channel it doesn't get any better than that
This app is great, but when i plug it into my car for android auto. It wont let me use other music apps such as google play music or spotify. When i try to change to these apps, it will shut them down and go back to SiriusXM. This is the only app I have for android auto that causes this problem.
This app is constantly NOT accepting my login creds. I'm on my fifth login change. It only happens on this app. I stream on multiple PCs and Roku devices with no login issues. Only this app gives me problems. So frustrating when I travel and it takes me so long to login that I often just end up listening to Pandora.
What have you done to my app?! Never had a problem until the March 2018 update. Now it only connects sporadically, stops playing for no reason at all, and re-opens even if I force stop the app. Apparently, in order to add Android Auto compatibility you broke a perfectly good app. I am going to start scaling back my considerable Sirius/XM subscriptions.
Radio service is great. The streaming music app though, sucks royally. Keeps acknowledging I have a streaming account but won't recognize username /password. When I try to reset username/password it asks for my email to send the info to but won't recognize my email. The people on the chat feature confirm my info and tell me it should work. That's it. And it still doesn't work
Only thing I've found missing is a really good station with a classic mix of classic rock, classic soul, and classic country. I love it all, on my Zune I have playlists for every occasion. There's definitely times when I want to listen to a great mix of it all. Other than that issue, I totally love it. I'm 65 years young and have been a Beatles fanatic since I was thirteen, that will never change. Continuous, unbelievable talent.
Very excited that the app now supports Android Auto. I am still testing but raising my review to 4 stars. I love that I can change channels using "ok google". need to see how it does with connectivity. Use to hang and crash a lot. I use Android Auto on my phone because my car does not support mirroring on display. It does not always update song metadata on the Bluetooth display. Shows artist and channel but not song and album.
Update: Landscape mode still doesn't work. Starts to rotate, then snaps right back to portrait mode.. Even with brief view, could see layout is just rotated portrait mode that makes half of the screen taken up by bottom bar. Do you have any designers that have actually designed a user interface. before? Needs features that are basic in most other radio apps. Such as no screen rotation, no widget and no shortcuts.
UPDATED REVIEW: So pleased that it now works with Android Auto! ???? I've yet to try it again with Ford Sync 3, but hopefully that now works also. Fortunately, since this app does play nicely with Android Auto, working with Ford Sync 3 isn't as much of a need for me now. Original text: Won't work with Android Auto. Won't work successfully with Ford Sync. The iPhone version works with CarPlay, why can't Android owners have a similar experience with Android Auto? If you need someone to test or QA this app to help you make it likeable, reach out.
Couple issues: 1. When you do on-demand, the track skips every 30 seconds or so until it plays a while. 2. Really need a way to skip FOWARD some small increment of time (15 sec like the back button would be fine)

What the hell happened, Sirius. I used to be able to see the Howard Stern shows, segment by segment and bounce back and forth between them on my phone. I also used to be able to go back to the beginning of the show. Now I noticed that the show segments are missing, and the the "restart show" button is gone. I either listen live or back up a few minutes. Not acceptable and totally sucks. I went from loving the app to totally hating it.
