Giveaway: Sirius XM iPhone App Private Invites
The guys at Nicemac are still hard at work trying to get the latest version of the uSirius StarPlayr out to the public and they have been nice enough to give SiriusBuzz 7 private invites to give away. If you have an iPhone and are interested in being one of the select few, all you have to do is either follow us on Twitter and retweet this post (preferred consideration) or simply comment on this article with your interest.
The deadlines are tight so get your request in now and we will select 7 winners at random in the next 24 hours. This goes without saying but you must have an iPhone and a valid Sirius or XM subscription to participate.
In addition to the beta 1 features the guys have added a few new features including:
- shake to shuffle options
- sound effects (toggle preset beeps, etc)
- rearrange presets
- time played
- auto play
- auto mute (when headphones pop out)
- iTunes purchase links for Edge/WiFI
- real stream artist and title
- secure login/authentication
- complete guide data
Sweet high quality photos of the uSirius app. after the jump…

Hi there.
I really hope that you pick me. I havbe beta tested a bunch of apps before and am commited to the process for constructive criticism to make better apps for everyone. I have my UDID already if you should pick me. And of course I am a long time subscriber to Sirius radio.
Thanks a million for your consideration.
Kindly,
Alex
Please pick me. Please. 🙂
Me ftw.
I would love to get in, I’ve been eagerly waiting for this app to come out. I listen to Sirius internet every day (on the Stiletto and also via StarPlayr and StarLightXM, and I keep checking the site hoping the iPhone app has been released.
I’m also a developer and I could help accurately track down any bugs, though it sounds like the app is already so polished that it might not be neccessary.
Hello nicemac! I would love to be in the Beta for this app. I’ve been following the development of this app, quite frankly, it’s unhealthy. I’ve been a Sirius listener for over two years and a devout Mac user for about 15 years. I know my way around the Mac OS and have spent the last year or so trying to get Sirius on my iPhone. I have yet to jailbreak my phone because I want to keep things native. I’ve been checking the app store each day in the hopes I’ll see it. I’ve also been keeping up at geekstoolbox for the latest news. Please keep me in mind for the latest round of invites, I would be grateful and excited.
Hi…I’m hoping that you might bestow this great honor upon me, a “normal,” lifetime subscrber to Sirius from its beginning. I won’t offend you by begging; I’ll just say that I’ll use all my effort and honesty in giving you the best beta test ever, and not just take advantage of the free beta app for my own selfish use. Thanks for your generosity and I humbly hope to hear back from you soon. Sincerely, Perry (LASERCAT)
I have been waiting for this application for a long time. I would love to give it a try and provide feedback.
I would definately like to get the chance to use this program. I’ve been a subscriber with Sirius since day one, and would love to be able to just carry my phone and listen without switching back and forth from my stilleto between calls. Baba Booey, Babba Booey
Please beta me!
Please pick me, I’ve been waiting for so long for an XM app!
This is the app Sirius subscribers AND investors have waiting for. Hopefully it will appear soon. If it is everything it appears to be it should be a hit and stir interest in non subscribers.
Hi, I would absolutely love a chance to try out this app, as I have been waiting forever for it. I had the original (jailbreak) version, and I’ve really missed it.
I would definitely be interested. I’m on a 3G iPhone in the Philadelphia area.
Thanks!
I have been waiting a long time for this application. I would be happy to be a beta tester. Let me know what I need to do. Also of note, is that I a professional IT analyst with professional application testing experience.
Thx for the chance. I love Simplify Media app & di.fm premium, but I need Sirius & XM yesterday.
Please I WANT.
i want it…
I am dying to try this App. You folks are the best. This will be the best app of all time, and would be an honor to be picked. Thanks much for all the hard work
I want to be part of the Beta give away! This will be the greatest thing out there once its made available to the public.
I can’t wait for this app! Please choose me!
All I have in this world is my Sirius and my iPhone. Please help me meld them into one perfect super world where nirvana is finally achieved.
I’d love to give this product a try. I’ve been using an alternative program to listen to Howard at the gym, but sometimes there are complications with it. I’ve been waiting for a solution like Starplayr for months. Peace.
Pick me! I work for a casino with thousands of coworkers and tourists. I’ll show it to anyone that will listen!
i would love to beta this app…. i’ve been looking for a good sirius app for a long time…
i’m an experienced software engineer.. could give good feedback if so required
Oh yeah, I want in on this. I have an XM receiver, but not a portable one, so this would be most excellent for listening to on the train. Please let me know how I can participate in the early testing of StarPlayr.
Only 7?!! Please choose me!!!
I am overly interested in this app. I was a user of the windows mobile version of the the starplyr and the previous version. I am a huge fan. I have finally upgraded to an iphone and am severely missing my sirius radio on my phone.
I have been waiting for this since the iphone 3G came out. I have had Sirius for the past 5 years and would love to help test this thing out!!!
SO Interested!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
please consider me for the beta group. I am a developer for a major ecommerce site (not the one listed in my profile) and would love to help out with your testing period.
I would love to get in on this beta test. I commute to work every day via train and would love to be able to listen to my Sirius account to and from work. I spend at least 2 hours a day listening to my iPhone
This is gonna be sweet!
What perfect timing, I just tweeted asking about a way to get Sirius on my iPhone! I would love the shot at a private invite! Commented and retweeted… 🙂
Longtime supporter of the developers-OK, about $25 over two years-not much, but maybe you need some iPod touch users as part of the demographic. Anyway, please include me in the drawing.
I would LOVE to try this out!
Please pick me.
I’m a young professional who will not beg, but will get quite the use of of this, and give feedback as well.
I would love to beta test this for you. I have beta tested numerous apps in the past, so this isn’t new to me. I’m also in Canada so I could test the Canadian subscription with it.
Thanks for taking the time to develop this guys, this is really awesome.
I would love to be a beta tester for your app, . . just heard about it on Howard Stern
Simon Says you should pick me!!!!!!! Thanks for all your hard work. I use your Starplayr on my mac at work and I cant wait to use it on my I-phone and my wife’s I-phone. Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sign me up for the trial for sure.
Cant wait!!!!!! I Travel and am attached to my iphone and HATE missing Howard Stern!
Sirius opens up my world to static free talk. Awesome!
It looks like a very well thought out design with some really nice features. Having the words to the songs and also the ability to purchase songs through iTunes adds a lot of value too. I am tempted to get an iPhone now, just so I can use this application.
hey guys, i have been following the progress of this software since august. i would love to be able to use this program and give any feedback deemed necessary. thanks for your consideration and i look forward to seeing the app in the near future.
thanks, todd
Agreed…The new features sound outstanding (and better than what I currently get with the XM Radio I have in my car) and I truly believe that the uSirius XM app is the only app that I have truly been looking forward too. It seems like forever ago that I heard about this project and with the final product release seeming to be right around the corner I absolutely can’t wait!!!!! I’m giddy with anticipation. Thanks to everyone at Nicemac for their efforts!!!!!
I currently use another service to listen to Sirius on my iphone. This other service requires me to have a client machine running in my home network. Most of my listening is done on the iphone and I would really like to see how this app measures up to what I already have. I think I would be a very good beta tester and will provide detailed feedback on my experience. Based on what’s been explained here, my current ways of listening will be a thing of the past. Please pick me to test. Thanks for your time.
Please pick me! I’ve had Sirius for two years and just got my iphone two wednesdays ago. I am listening to Stern now from my Sirius Studio player and that’s where I heard agout this app coming out. My actual radio is in my car, but it would be so much better to go on my phone. Not to mention after March 11, you will have to pat 2.99 a month to stream over the internet unless you have a lifetime subscription.
So please, pick me… thankyou in advance
Please pick me for this BETA, please please please
I have been waiting for this app! it looks amazing – would love to be one of the select few to give it a try. I have an iphone and a lifetime sirius subscription.
I’d love to get my hands on your app. I liked that you were out promoting it on Stern. I’d love to be one of the few Canadians who has it. I love Sirius and the Starplayr that I have been using for a while. Please choose me for your invite
can’t wait.
Would love to listen to Ellis on my iPhone. Hopefully I am picked. Red dragons.
