Satisfaction absolutely guaranteed or full refund. Don't worry about the 15 minute return race.
Please email mikereidis@gmail.com for ANY problems or questions.
Spirit was initially targetted at custom ROMs such as CyanogenMod, on which FM app availability is limited.
If you don't know what a "ROM" is, then your phone is likely "Stock" and un-rooted.
Support for stock, un-rooted devices is now present, but limited, and various bugs are being worked on.
If your stock phone has a working, stock FM app you are happy with, then Spirit may be of little use to you at present.
If your stock phone does not have a working, stock FM app, then FM is likely impossible, except Bionic, Droid 2 & 3, Defy.
Some phones will never work and nobody can make them work because the hardware is disabled. This includes Atrix, Nexus S, US Galaxy S2's, Galaxy Tab, Droid (1)/Milestone, P999 G2x, Galaxy Spica.
I understand the prices may seem high, but this is a niche app. Price experiments say higher prices will keep this app alive & improving.
How many other "Real FM" apps are on the Market ? Two: 1 for Galaxy S only and one repackaged Motorola app.
Why ? It's extremely difficult. Google does not support FM apps. They and the carriers seem to dislike free "Over The Air" FM.
Light & Unlocked include:
- Lifetime technical support for as many devices as you own & questions you have.
- Stereo, Mono & alternative settings.
- Mute & Speaker support.
- 6 nameable presets.
- Status Bar & Notification window.
- Sleep function, Test functions, Email Logs, UI settings & RSSI graphic.
- And many more Light & Unlocked exclusive features to come !

This is not a throwaway game app you play for a few days. How many hours will you spend listening to FM in the next 20+ years ?
How much can you save on data plans by listening to free, over the air radio versus streaming ?

Spirit is not a one time purchase. It's ongoing technical assistance, fixes, new device support & features.
I'm one developer and Spirit is my only app and income. I'm trying to do a job Google said they couldn't for lack of developer resources.
Your support will help keep Spirit FM alive and improving.
