WICN Radio Station
Abstract
Many radio stations use mobile applications as a way to expand their broadcast to listeners. This scope of this project included the assessment of the existing broadcasting streams and listeners of the Worcester Inter-Collegiate Network (WICN) radio station, including their Android OS mobile app. However, the data suggest that most of WICN’s listeners use iOS rather than Android devices. As part of this project, we developed a prototype of WICN’s existing mobile app for iOS and surveyed feedback from listeners. In this report, we detail our procedures, which included an assessment of existing apps for radio stations and their strengths and weaknesses with regard to functionality for the broadcaster, and feature availability for the end user.
