What is Reddit's opinion of Motorola FM Radio?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

My Moto G5+ has an FM radio and a and I use it all the time and they make their own app with no network usage. It is wonderful.

For what it's worth & those who want ONLY over-the-air FM, Motorola uses this app for FM radio: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer

But sure if it's compatible with other devices, but figured I'd pay a link just in case.

I have a Motorola phone. I use the Motorola FM radio app available in Play StoreMoto FM radio. It works with Bluetooth but requires a cable connected to the headphones connector because it works as the FM antenna. I use a short cable (15 cm / 6 inches) that I cut from old headphones.

You bet it does, I've tested it. Gotta have headphones plugged in to act as the antenna, but it definitely works.

Here's the app it uses: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer

I tried to upload the said APK to apkmirror. In the meantime, try https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/direct-apk-downloader/bifidglkmlbfohchohkkpdkjokajibgg with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer

I can't not ask (maybe you are not the right one to answer..) how TF can something like this happen??

I don't know what phone you own, but for the Moto G and Moto E, Motorola has an official app to use it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer&hl=en

Oddly, it's not available for their flagship Moto X phones.

My last Moto just had a toggle button in the radio app to switch the output.

Headphones, speaker or Bluetooth.

It probably won't work on other brands, but this is the app Motorola uses & I know it supports this. (At least it did on G Power, Android 11). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer

Look for your manufacturer's FM radio app. Today's 'radio' apps are almost always streaming apps that are just listening to radio stations internet streams. Next Radio is one of these & won't be able to use the FM receiver. And your SIM card means nothing for FM radio. There's no cellular or wifi involved with actual FM. It's just a hardware receiver, same as was in your grandparents rusted old car before the digital age.

On my Motorola, I have to use Motorola's dedicated receiver app. Nothing else will access the hardware receiver.

Motorola makes this app for their devices but who knows, maybe it will work for you. FM Radio - Apps on Google Play

Yep. It works fairly well. Just have to have wired headphones plugged in since they act as the antenna.

If you're curious, this is the app that comes installed: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer

Maybe it's not disabled, just doesn't work because there is no app for it. Maybe this app will work on it. It came preloaded on my G5+, and got updated through the play store.

I just use the stock "FM Radio" app. Works fine, doesn't use data/wifi.

Says it works with Moto E, G, and any Moto running Android 5.0+ so you might have to wait for the upgrade before you can use it if you have a Moto X.
