Hi! The web UI has the option to start a radio station from a song. Can that same option be brought over to the Android App?

Thanks!

Unfortunately it seems that subsonic app is abandoned ... like subsonic itself too. :( :cry:
Try Dsub, it can play like you rquested.
At Google play, there is an outdated version, you can try Fdroid to get it, or you can download the apk here

Downloading the apk is a bit tricky to install, sor some people.

subfire had radio support for a time, but many of the usual providers (including all of the ones I listened to) kept either dying off or blocking independent clients, so I gave up trying to maintain the feature.

I gues that is not what he meant.
If you are using subsonic in the browser, choose an artist, scroll down, there is another play radio, it creates a playlist of similar artists ....
For iOS play:sub and avsub can do that, at android so far i know only Dsub. But I'm not that android power user ...

oh THAT kind of 'radio' - songs from similar artists (including the artist you're on). Yeah, I don't know about that in the main android app, but I do support that feature in SubFire mobile2, dash, and tv. (as well as my legacy players)

The mobile and dash players are PWAs (Progressive Web Apps) that can be installed on an Android through the browser once you are on the page, through both Chrome and Samsung's browser.
