Android: Why Did I Hear Beeping Instead Of The Live Stream When The Alarm Went Off?

This article is for troubleshooting issues related to the sound/stream on Android devices. Our example below is for a Samsung Galaxy S5 with Android Marshmallow 6.0.1  (For specific instructions please refer to support materials for your device manufacturer/modal and android version)

Step-by-step guide

1. When using the alarm, remember to leave this app open in the foreground, plug the device into a charger, and leave the device screen on.
2. The beeping sound is used instead of the stream for the following scenarios:
   1. The stream is not available due to loss of connectivity from wi-fi or from the streaming provider
   2. The app is closed or has crashed
   3. The app is running in the background or the screen is turned off
   4. The stream is already playing
3. Check your wi-fi network status to ensure that your device is still connected
4. Open your wi-fi settings and check that your network is currently enabled, or select another network
