From the ‘Radio Stations’ page, find the station you want to edit, click the three dots near the station name and then select ‘Edit station’, this will open up the Station Settings page.

General Settings

Change the name for your station, this will affect the name of your station that’s shown on the app.

If you have uploaded a logo on your Radio.co Dashboard that should have come over to apps.radio.co on your initial log in. If not you can upload one here, it just needs to be a 1200 pixel by 1200 pixel png or jpeg file.

Please note: Changing your station logo or name on your Radio.co Dashboard will not change your station logo or name on apps.radio.co.

Once you have uploaded your logo you can pick a brand colour to use on your app. Clicking this for the first time will give you the option of some colours that we have picked up from your logo, you can choose one of these or any other colour you would like. If you pick a colour and then change your mind you can choose a new one on the app builder.

Licensing

Some app stores require you to have a licence in place in order to broadcast copyrighted content such as music, podcasts etc. You’ll need to upload your licensing documents to us before we can proceed with developing your app. You can either drag a file in to the box or upload a file by clicking on the ‘Upload Document’ button. Please note: the document must be in the PDF format.

For more information on types of licences and where you can get them, please see our separate guide on licensing HERE.
