Broadcasts4.0.3

Listen to streaming internet radio in an award-winning, ultra-simple, single-purpose app. Beautifully designed and fully-native on all platforms. Completely private: no accounts, no logins, and absolutely no tracking or analytics, by design.

Broadcasts makes building a library of stations from around the world easier than ever. Use completely free with a handful of stations, or subscribe to unlock the full power of an unlimited library and add as many of your own stations as you like from the thousands available on the Station Browser, or manually via URL. Search for stations from around the world as easily as from your own library, by country, by genre, or on the world map. Manually add and listen to your favorite live podcasts, air traffic control, and more - just point Broadcasts at any supported streaming audio source. Use the Now Playing screen to showcase gorgeous station and track artwork (where provided). Control from the MiniPlayer, or the menu bar on your Mac. Use Broadcasts in StandBy mode on your iPhone as a bedside clock.

Sync your library across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, and Apple TV with iCloud, and Universal Purchase. Enjoy your library on the road using CarPlay and your iPhone. Listen with just your Apple Watch (Cellular) while on a run, or on Apple TV at home.

Browse stations in grid or list view. Listen in Light or Dark mode. Edit stations to provide your own artwork, or use the Artwork Chooser or Image Playground to generate something fun and colorful. Use Handoff to transfer playback between devices, or AirPlay directly to a home speaker.

Live Transcription uses an advanced on-device model to provide a realtime transcript so you can follow along without audio, or scroll back and see what you just missed, with support for dozens of languages. On macOS, Siri AI lets you ask questions about the transcript, like 'who is this person' or 'translate this for me'.

Use Shazam to look up the current song, and add it to your music library.

Supports Shortcuts & AppleScript for playback automation. Sleep Timer. Visualizer. Widgets. Spotlight. Siri. Game Controller. And much more!

Supports Family Sharing.

Made in Ireland.
