What's New in Dead Air
1.2
September 5, 2026
1.2 is the pause-and-resume release. - Tune In answers the instant you press it. Coming back from a pause is faster, even a long one. - Pauses pick up where they left off. A phone call, a video in another app, a Bluetooth speaker that shuts itself off: when you come back, the song continues instead of starting over. - Improved music selection playback performance - added artwork for lock screen when playing station ID's, promos, or DJ drops
