Set up a free account with the link at the top, add your station or podcast info into the account section and add some content. Set up a developer account with Android and Apple and when you're happy with the details you have added, we build the app and deploy it to stores. If you have any questions at all with the process or set up, just from will@thesignal.app a message.
We aim to deploy apps within 1-2 working days of submission. Google and Apple can take between a day and a week to approve an app but very rarely longer than that. So all being well, we can have your app in stores in a matter of a few days rather than the months that app development normally takes.
You'll be paid directly from Google and Apple into your bank account. We do not hold any of your funds, nor do we take any cut of the revenue you generate. Both Google and Apple payout monthly.
Yes, we deploy the app to your own Google and Apple accounts. You'll be able to see the full stats and analytics they provide. You will need to set these up but we can give you any help that you need. An Apple Developer account is £79 a year and Android is a one off fee of £20. This is the case for all apps in the app store now.
Yes, in a way... You can use the download links provided by your current podcast host for the archive section of your app. This means all your stats are aggregated in the same place which is helpful for advertisers should you ever want to pitch for ads and you don't have to upload things twice. We can import all the episodes from your current feed in bulk so you don't have to add them individually yourself. We are working on a way to make this automatic and will keep you informed of any updates.
Yes. You will need to have your own stream set up with either Shoutcast, Radio.co or any other audio stream provider. We don't provide the streams ourself, we just help you get yours out to the masses.
You can stream video from any major video streaming provider, Youtube, Facebook, Twitch etc. As long as they provide an embeddable link, you can use it.
Should you ever need to cancel your subscription with us, all we need is 1 months notice and you're free to go. No lengthy contracts, no fuss, no hassle. We will keep your content stored for 6 months in case you are just needing a break and want to come back without having to set up a new account.
