-## Creating an App
-
-If you create an app with the code, or interesting project inspired by the code, shoot me an email. I love hearing about your projects!
+- Stream live radio with background audio playback
+- Scrubber and progress bar for non-live streams
+- Apple CarPlay support
+- Album art and track metadata from streams and iTunes API
+- Lock screen and Control Center integration
+- Multiple stations from a local or remote JSON file
+- Pull to refresh and optional search bar
+- Localization-ready via Xcode String Catalog
+- About screen with email, sharing, and external links
 
-This is just a basic template. You may use it as a clean starting point to add other features.
+Built on [FRadioPlayer](https://github.com/fethica/FRadioPlayer) for streaming, metadata parsing, and iTunes album art fetching.
 
-Some of the things I've built into this Radio code for clients include: Facebook login, Profiles, Saving Favorite Tracks, Playlists, Genres, Spotify integration, Enhanced Streaming, Tempo Analyzing, etc. There's almost unlimited things you can use this code as a starting place for. I keep this repo lightweight. That way you can customize it easily. 
+## Getting Started
 
-## Setup
+1. Open `SwiftRadio.xcodeproj` in Xcode
+2. Edit `SwiftRadio/Config/Config.swift` to set your stations URL, contact email, website, and other app-wide settings
+3. Update your stations in `SwiftRadio/Data/stations.json` or host the file remotely
+4. Build and run
 
-The "Config.swift" file contains some project configs to get you started.
-Watch this [Getting Started Video](https://youtu.be/m7jiajCHFvc) to get up & running quickly.
+### Station Format
 
-## Integration
+Each station in `stations.json` supports the following fields:
 
-Includes full Xcode Project to jumpstart development.
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Station Name",
+  "streamURL": "https://stream.example.com/live",
+  "imageURL": "station-image",
+  "desc": "Short tagline",
+  "longDesc": "Longer description for the detail screen",
+  "website": "https://example.com"
+}
+```
 
-## Stations 
+Images can be local (asset name without `http`) or remote (full URL).
 
-Includes an example "stations.json" file. You may upload the JSON file to a server, so that you can update the stations in the app without resubmitting to the app store. The following fields are supported in the app:
+### Customizing Text and Translation
 
-- **name**: The name of the station as you want it displayed (e.g. "Sub Pop Radio")
+All user-facing strings are managed through `Localizable.xcstrings` (the String Catalog). Open it in Xcode to change the default English text or add new languages — no code changes required.
 
-- **streamURL**: The url of the actual stream
+## Dependencies
 
-- **imageURL**: Station image url. Station images in demo are 350x206. Image can be local or hosted. Leave out the "http" to use a local image (You can use either: "station-subpop" or "http://myurl.com/images/station-subpop.jpg")
+- [FRadioPlayer](https://github.com/fethica/FRadioPlayer) — streaming and metadata
+- [LNPopupController](https://github.com/LeoNatan/LNPopupController) — now playing popup bar
+- [NVActivityIndicatorView](https://github.com/ninjaprox/NVActivityIndicatorView) — loading indicators
+- [MarqueeLabel](https://github.com/cbpowell/MarqueeLabel) — scrolling text labels
 
-- **desc**: Short 2 or 3 word description of the station as you want it displayed (e.g. "Outlaw Country")
+All managed via Swift Package Manager.
 
-- **longDesc**: Long description of the station to be used on the "info screen". This is optional.

-## Contributions
+Contributions are welcome. Please branch off [`dev`](https://github.com/analogcode/Swift-Radio-Pro/tree/dev) and open a pull request — do not commit directly to `master`.
 
-Contributions are very welcome. Please check out the [dev branch](https://github.com/analogcode/Swift-Radio-Pro/tree/dev), create a separate branch (e.g. features/3dtouch). Please do not commit on master.
+## Single Station Version
 
-## FAQ
+Looking for a simpler, single-station version of this app? We offer a ready-to-go codebase for **$50** — no extra fees.
 
-Q: Do I have to pay you anything if I make an app with this code?  
-A: Nope. This is completely open source, you can do whatever you want with it. It's usually cool to thank the project if you use the code. Go build stuff. Enjoy.
+PayPal [fethica@me.com](mailto:fethica@me.com) or use [PayPal.Me](https://www.paypal.me/fethicaEH), and we will send the code within 24 hours with setup instructions. All funds support the project.
 
-Q: How do I make my app support ipv6 networks?  
-A: For an app to be accepted by Apple to the app store as of June 1, 2016, you CAN NOT use number IP addresses. i.e. You must use something like "http://mystream.com/rock" instead of "http://44.120.33.55/" for your station stream URLs.
+For custom work or more advanced needs, reach out to [Fethi](mailto:contact@fethica.com).
 
-Q: Is there an example of using this with the Spotify API?  
-A: Yes, there is a branch here that uses it [here]( https://github.com/swiftcodex/Swift-Radio-Pro/tree/avplayer) (⚠️ **deprecated**).
+**Built something with Swift Radio?** We'd love to see it — drop us a line at [contact@fethica.com](mailto:contact@fethica.com).
 
-Q: Is there another API to get album/track information besides LastFM, Spotify, and iTunes?  
-A: Rovi has a pretty sweet [music API](http://prod-doc.rovicorp.com/mashery/index.php/Data/APIs/Rovi-Music). The [Echo Nest](http://developer.echonest.com/) has all kinds of APIs that are fun to play with. 
-
-Q: I updated the album art size in the Storyboard, and now the sizing is acting funny?  
-A: There is an albumArt constraint modified in the code. See the "optimizeForDeviceSize()" method in the NowPlayingVC.
-
-Q: My radio station isn't playing?  
-A: Paste your stream URL into a browser to see if it will play there. The stream may be offline or have a weak connection.
-
-Q: Can you help me add a feature? Can you help me understand the code? Can you help with a problem I'm having?  
-A: While I have a full-time job and other project obligations, I'd highly recommend you find a developer or mentor in your area to help. The code is well-documented and most developers should be able to help you rather quickly. While I am sometimes available for paid freelance work, see below in the readme, **I am not able to provide any free support or modifications.** Thank you for understanding!
-
-Q: The song names aren't appearing for my station?  
-A: Check with your stream provider to make sure they are sending Metadata properly. If a station sends data in a unique way, you can modify the way the app parses the metadata, in the `RadioPlayer` class implement `FRadioPlayerDelegate` method: `radioPlayer(_ player: FRadioPlayer, metadataDidChange rawValue: String?)`.

-## Get Single Station Code
-If you'd like to support this project, co-organizer Fethi has created a well-architected single station version of this code. It's a super great bargain: The developers behind this project typically charge up to $200/hr for freelance work, but this fully working code is only $50. No extra fees. 
-
-You can PayPal: [fethica@me.com](mailto:fethica@me.com) or use this link: [Paypal Me](https://www.paypal.me/fethicaEH)
-We will send you the code after 24 hours with setup instructions. All funds go to support the project.
