NOTE: The setup and portable edition share the same setup file. To get the portable, select "Portable" instead of "Normal" during setup. To get the latest version, launch the app, open the "Help" menu to "Check for new version".

Thanks to the significant improvements in terms of coverage, transfer speeds and stability, internet connectivity has become ubiquitous and reliable enough for smartphone manufacturers to drop FM radio capabilities as many stations are expanding by streaming on the internet as well.

While most streaming services have become more desirable for their on-demand playback functionality, their personalized discovery queues may not be accurate enough for each listener’s tastes, which is why some users can try to find new tracks organically through TapinRadio Portable.

If you find yourself enjoying the same tracks frequently enough to get their lyrics stuck in your head, a change of pace may be the right call to avoid turning a relaxing activity into a monotonous one. When the recommendations of YouTube or Spotify are not up to par, going the old-fashioned way is worth a shot.

As affordable and appealing as standalone radios may be for both average and nostalgic folks, those who want to stay mindful of notifications from programs’ ongoing tasks on their computer are better off running the app at hand to tweak the volume accordingly.

Once downloaded, the app lets users browse stations according to the genre of music they specialize in, the nationality of the artists or the overarching region they reside in. Once the desired station is selected, you can add it to favorites to make it readily available.

For those times when you cannot find a certain song in the database of your go-to streaming service, the program provides you with the option to record the currently playing segment for further internet research.

Apart from the impressively vast keyboard shortcut customization prowess that lets you create hotkey combinations meant to enhance your workflow, the bundled scheduling system also introduces the ability to automatically launch the desired station once the app is set to run on boot.

Those working in the troubleshooting sector of the IT field may find good use in adding TapinRadio Portable to their on-the-go USB flash drive-powered setup to enjoy a set of tunes without having to go through the installation process on each device they have to test on.
