NextRadio Launches iOS FM Radio Streaming App

, , , ,

NextRadio is still committed to unlocking the FM Chip in all phones...

NextRadio, the app with the most FM radio stations, announced today the launch of an iOS version of its free app for iPhone mobile device users.  NextRadio offers the most local radio FM stations available through a single app to Apple users for the first time.

The TagStation-owned NextRadio app allows listeners to remain connected with any city or community while on the go, making radio listening easy, portable and enjoyable.  The free app allows listeners to interact with local stations and browse by station, genre or location, giving users complete control of their listening experience.

One of NextRadio's most innovative features is the Live Guide, which allows users to see and select from what's playing on local stations in real time all at once, rather than search through each station for something they want to hear.  The Live Guide interface displays album art and program details, creating a more intuitive and immersive experience for local audio content and music discovery.  Ninety-one percent of the population listens to radio each week to learn about new artists, breaking news and entertainment, and to hear from their favorite radio personalities.


"We're thrilled that NextRadio is now available for use on both iOS and Android devices," says Paul Brenner, President of TagStation the power behind NextRadio.  "We want to empower all users to enjoy local FM radio without having their content restricted by geographic location or choice of device and this expansion of our capabilities and market penetration is an important part of our strategy to give more people the easiest way to access mobile radio that they can enjoy at home, at work and on the go."  

NextRadio is still committed to unlocking the FM Chip in all phones but wants to offer consumers the choice to listen to live local radio on any phone.  We developed a streaming version until this goal becomes a reality.

NextRadio original FM smartphone for Android has also been updated to support streaming and is available in the Google Playstore.

    BTW. Every phone has a built in antenna that is used to receive Wi-fi. That antenna can be used to receive local FM radio stations for free without data usage. However with most carriers offering unlimited data, NextRadio may have an even harder job of convincing the public that their app is useful or serves a real purpose.

• Gayle King and Charles Barkley are finalizing a deal that would have them jointly lead a primetime hour each week on CNN, according to people familiar with the matter and multiple news sources. The pact is not complete and there is always the risk it may not come to fruition, one of these people says. CNN declined to make executives available for comment.

• Tavis Smiley owned Los Angeles talk station KBLA Talk 1580 donated $20,000 in scholarship money to the NABJLA and MPJI. Smiley says, “The National Association of Black Journalists of Los Angeles and the Minority Photo-Journalism Institute are making a tangible difference in our community by helping students pursue careers in journalism and communications. KBLA ‘Talk 1580’ strongly believes in enlightening, empowering and encouraging tomorrow’s reporters, editors and potential talk radio hosts. Hopefully, our scholarships make a difference.”

• WLBT anchor and meteorologist Barbie Bassett is no longer with the Jackson, Miss., NBC station after racially insensitive comments. In early March, Bassett was speaking with her fellow anchors on air about Snoop Dogg’s latest business venture, Snoop Cali Blanc, a new wine in his wine label. In response to a comment about putting a Snoop Dogg tattoo on her shoulder, Bassett said, “Fo shizzle, my nizzle.” Bassett is white. Charlamagne tha God defended Bassett as he discussed the situation on The Breakfast Club. “She might be old. She probably has no idea nizzle is a derivative of the N-word. That’s not a fireable offense. I hope she sues.”
