Swiping from right to left causes Slacker to skip the current song-you can do that six time per hour with a free account and unlimited times if you have either Slacker Radio Plus ($3.99 per month) or Slacker Radio Premium ($9.99 per month). Clicking on the heart-shaped "Favorite" icon gives a song or artist extra weight, causing Slacker to play it more frequently. Alternately, clicking the ban icon prevents an artist or song from appearing in that created station. Typing in "Queen" caused Slacker to fire up "Flash's Theme," and afterward serve up only Queen songs.

Bringing a finger to the "Afropunk" play button brought Jimi Hendrix's "Angel" to my ears. Tapping "My Stations" launched a channel that housed all seven of my custom stations (complete with descriptions and artwork). A column on the left side of the screen houses the 30+ various Slacker genres (ranging from Rock to Spiritual to Comedy), as well as custom stations I created. The app's upper-portion features a station's name, artist and album names, media controls, sharing options (email, Twitter), and general app options. The classic black/white/gold Slacker logo, however, is now orange, and the station history page features dark hues and borders. The look, curiously, doesn't conform to Slacker's smartphone and desktop designs that feature a soft, baby blue color scheme and panel-driven interface. The latest Slacker iPad build keeps most of the previous version's design elements, but features a few visual changes. A deep music well, on-demand streaming, playlists, and over 200 curated channels make Slacker Radio the premier streaming music service, but the absence of the informative "Music Guide" section-which is found on the Slacker website and smartphone apps-places the iPad app a step behind the other versions.

It mentions that users will be able to have the same experience on this service as it “provided ALL of Samsung’s Milk’s Music and programming, so all of the songs and stations you listened to (plus SO many more) still live on Slacker Radio. Slacker Radio has also posted a complete FAQ on their blog for those who are coming over from Samsung Milk Music. ![]() Users can tap on “Try Now” in the Milk Music app to transfer all of their stations and song history to this service. New subscribers get a 14-day free trial of Slacker Radio Plus with unlimited skips, no ads and an offline mode. We are ending support for Samsung Milk Music as of September 22, 2016.” Samsung’s Milk Music service was powered by Slacker Radio so users who want to continue their music experience are being directed to sign up for Slacker Radio. They will see the following message instead: “Thank you for using Samsung Milk Music. Milk Music users who fire up the service right now will no longer be able to use it. Samsung has already shut down the Milk Music service in Australia and just last month it confirmed that the music streaming service will be shut down in the United States come September. The company didn’t really provide an explanation as to why the service is being shut down, but it did say that it’s working on a new project that is focused on “seamlessly integrating the best music services available today into family of Galaxy devices.”
