Hi I just signed up for xm yesterday and I got the strictly internet package. It told me nowhere that I had to have a radio.

I use the app on a regular basis. I do have one question though. Do you know how to get to the settings from within the app itself? There are a couple of settings which I want to change, but I can뭪 seem to get to the settings area of the app. Any ideas?

I뭭e used it for hours on end this week. While it뭩 true that not all buttons are labeled and there뭩 definitely room for improvement by no means did I find it unusable at all. I think it뭩 always best to give an app such as this a play for one뭩 self as one person뭩 inaccessible is another뭩 a bit quirky needing improvement but definitely workable. Just my two cents no one asked for. Robin From: BBS Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2012 9:10 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Sirius and XM radio apps Hi Jim. Personally, I wouldn't listen to Sirius XM on an iPhone because of several reasons. Firstly, as others have said, the app is almost unusable. Sure, you can navigate to a station, but when you're in the player, Voiceover doesn't work. Secondly, I certainly wouldn't unsubscribe your radio receiver because if you want to listen to it longer than 90 minutes, you'll need to be constantly at your iPhone to start it up again because it times out every 90 minutes. That was my biggest turn-off with the app and I like to sleep with the radio on and when I had the app, it would always kick me off after 90 minutes. So yeah, you're better off with your radio receiver. -- Shawn Sent from my white MacBook using SamNet -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
