Bringing radio, podcasts and news together
Bringing radio, podcasts and news together
Bringing radio, podcasts and news together
DOMRADIO had a strong online presence, but it needed a dedicated mobile app that seamlessly integrated its live radio stream, on-demand podcasts and news content into a single, easy-to-use platform. Unlike conventional media apps, which focus on just one format, DOMRADIO sought a solution that combined all three. They needed a single, easy-to-navigate platform where their audience could listen to live radio, access past shows on demand and read the latest news. All without switching between multiple apps.

Creating a premium experience for an older audience
A significant portion of DOMRADIO’s audience is elderly, meaning the app’s user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) had to be particularly intuitive, accessible and easy to navigate. Unlike younger audiences, who may be accustomed to complex app interfaces, older users needed a simple yet well-designed experience that made accessing content effortless. The challenge was to deliver a premium yet highly accessible design that catered specifically to this demographic.
