welle.io DAB+ SDR

About this app

welle.io (www.welle.io) is an open source DAB and DAB+ software defined radio (SDR) with support for rtl-sdr (RTL2832U).

For support and comments use the forum https://forum.welle.io, please.

welle.io uses the rtl-sdr driver from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=marto.rtl_tcp_andro. Additionally you need a rtl-sdr USB dongle which has to be connected to your phone via an USB-OTG cable.

This app is very computation intensive. You need at least a 4 cores CPU with 1.3 GHz for using this app. Please note that welle.io is under heavy development.

Ratings and reviews

I like this app. It seems more stable than another (expensive) similar app. I would love to make this my go to app for my DAB tuner, but the signal quality is noticeably worse. Can the dev give me any pointers on settings to try? Using and rtl sdr dongle. Or explain what might be going on. The lower signal quality I get using this app makes it unusable for me.

I think what ever this kind of radio is, is great but would be better if it actually got something, this might sound odd but I'm not sure how to get it to get the music or whatever it's supposed to get. It works finally before it wouldn't because I didn't have that otg but I have it now but when I start the SDR Radio that makes it work I can't get anything I have a anttena but admit I don't really know how to configure that SDR all I can get if anything is the local radio stations.

it's a good app for listening to DAB radio using an RTLSDR stick, but it's been using 18% of my battery in the background, when I haven't had it running for weeks.
