Radio questions
Is the radio free?
Yes. Every station plays for free, straight from the station’s own public stream. There is no account and no sign-up.
Why do some stations play only in the app?
Some stations publish their stream only over an older, unencrypted connection (http). Browsers block those on secure websites, so the website lists how many there are and the app plays them.
Why is a station I know missing?
The list comes from the free Radio Browser directory. We show news, talk, public, weather and emergency stations whose stream is online. A station that is not in the directory, or whose stream is down, does not appear.
Does the radio work when the power or TV is out?
It works as long as your phone or computer has power and an internet connection. A battery or hand-crank radio is still the safest way to follow the news in a long outage.
