A Live Streaming App for Android devices

In this paper, we present a live streaming app for Android devices using URL. The app is useful for two reasons; first, all your favorite radio stations will be grouped together in one place, and hence, you can easily play and switch from one station to another without any hassle. Second, it is an app that turns your device into a radio and lets you listen to live streaming stations while in the office, on the road, or in any other setting. The app is similar to Spotify but on a smaller scale (that's probably all you need; your favorite station and not all the stations that come with Spotify). The app has two main contributions: 1) we describe all the steps and components needed to develop such an app. We also discuss the functionality and the trade-offs using different components and approaches. 2) The app's source code and complete documentation can be used by instructors to teach various Android topics.
