Sailwave is a native interface for browsing and listening to radio station streams from the community database radio-browser.info
Existing users: same app, new package name (harbour-sailwave-radio) – see the note below.
New in v1.1: landscape mode with a player panel and large buttons; optional favorite tiles; lock screen, headset and car controls with previous/next favorite now work on every device; refined icon and various small improvements
Note for existing users: Sailwave has a new package name, harbour-sailwave-radio – the old name harbour-sailwave was already taken in the Jolla Store. Installed with Storeman from the old page, Sailwave updates to this package by itself. Installed manually: install this package, then remove the old Sailwave. Favorites, histories and settings are kept in both cases.
Features:
Languages: English, German (native translations), French, Spanish (with help of Claude AI)
Open source (GPL-3.0-or-later): https://github.com/t-sappl/harbour-sailwave
Developed with AI assistance; all technical and design changes are fully specified, reviewed and tested on a Jolla Phone (2026) by the developer.

V1.1
- New package name harbour-sailwave-radio – favorites and settings are kept; installed from OpenRepos, the old Sailwave updates to it by itself
- Landscape mode: player panel on the right with large previous/play/next buttons.
- Favorite tiles: large favorite tiles as an extra page left of the start page
– always or only in landscape, optionally opened when turning the phone (for example in the car).
- Lock screen, headset and car controls: the package now installs the system module Amber.Mpris, which was missing on some devices, as a dependency.
- Next and previous also work while playback is paused, and only appear when there is another favorite to switch to.
- Setting renamed to "Stay within favorite group"; its value is now kept after a restart.
V1.0.1
- New Feature: Added Next and Previous control buttons on the lock screen and cover page.
- New Setting: Added option to restrict Next and Previous media actions to the current favourite group instead of cycling through all favourites.
