Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Which phones work with RetroPlay?
A. Any smartphone with NFC. That means iPhone 7 or later, and most modern Android phones (NFC must be enabled in settings).
Q. Do I need to install an app?
A. No. RetroPlay opens directly in your browser when you tap the keyring.
Q. Do I need internet?
A. Yes - RetroPlay streams music, so Wi-Fi or mobile data is required.
Q. How is the music delivered?
A. All playlists stream from publicly available sources on YouTube. We curate, we don't host.
Q. Music stops when I lock the screen. Why?
A. iOS Safari restricts background audio for streamed content. This is an Apple platform behaviour, not a RetroPlay limitation. For the best experience, keep your screen on while listening - it's part of the experience, after all.
Q. Will the playlists be updated?
A. Yes. We periodically refresh and add new curated playlists - no action needed from you.
Q. What if my keyring stops working?
A. We offer a 30-day warranty against NFC failure under normal use. Just contact us with your order details.
Q. Can I use it overseas?
A. Yes, as long as you have internet access. RetroPlay works anywhere in the world.
