It turns your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and CarPlay into a window onto live radio from every corner of the planet — more than 50,000 stations streaming right now, covering every genre, every language, every country. No ads interrupt your listening. No subscription gates the good stuff. No "free trial" that quietly becomes a paid plan. You install it once, and every feature is yours.
50,000+ Live Radio Stations Worldwide
Whatever you want to listen to, chances are it's already in Live Radio. Pop, Rock, Jazz, News, Sports, Classical, Electronic, Country, Reggae, Latin, Hip-Hop, Talk, and Podcasts — tens of thousands of live radio stations from 200+ countries, all in one searchable library. Filter by genre, tag, country, or station name, and you'll find exactly what you're looking for in seconds. New stations are added continuously, and the catalog is cleaned and verified so every stream you tap plays instantly.
Local Radio Stations Near You
Live Radio uses your location to surface the most popular radio stations in your city or region — perfect for commuters, expats, and travelers who want a local feel wherever they are. Landed in a new country? The Near You feed refreshes automatically and shows what locals are actually listening to. Prefer a specific place? Switch to any city or country in two taps and browse its top stations.
Now Playing with ICY Metadata & Shazam
Live Radio reads ICY metadata in real time, so you see the current track, artist, and album the moment a station broadcasts them. When the station doesn't send song info — which happens surprisingly often on internet radio — tap the Shazam button and the song is identified in seconds. You never lose track of what's playing, and you can go from "what is this song?" to Apple Music in one tap.
Free Radio App with No Ads and No Subscription
Most free radio apps are free in name only: mid-roll ads, pop-up upsells, locked features behind a paywall. Live Radio is different. It's a genuinely free radio app — every feature, every station, every device, unlocked from day one. No "Pro" tier, no ad banners, no 30-second commercials between stations. If you've been searching for a radio app with no ads, you can stop looking.
CarPlay Radio App, Apple Watch & AirPlay
Live Radio is a first-class Apple citizen. Plug into your dashboard and the CarPlay radio app gives you full browsing, Now Playing, and favorites on your car's screen — the safest way to change stations on the move. The Apple Watch companion lets you start, stop, and switch stations from your wrist without touching your phone. AirPlay streams to HomePod, Apple TV, AirPlay speakers, and any Bluetooth audio device. Background playback, lock-screen controls, and Control Center integration work exactly the way you'd expect from a native iOS app.
Favorites, Search, Sleep Timer, Themes
Favorite a station with a single tap and it stays pinned to the top of your list. Search the entire 50,000-station library by name, genre, tag, or country. Drift off to your favorite late-night jazz channel — the built-in sleep timer quietly stops playback when you're asleep. Choose Dark or Light theme or let the app follow your system setting. Every small detail is tuned to feel native on Apple hardware.
Localized in 50 Languages
Live Radio is translated into 50 languages and supports every App Store region. Whether you're in São Paulo, Seoul, Stockholm, or San Francisco, the interface speaks your language and surfaces stations relevant to where you are. It's a worldwide internet radio app that feels local wherever you open it.
