When I make a playlist I don’t wanna listen to any other songs only those on the playlist and there’s no way to turn the feature off. It is quite annoying. ### 5/5 — Love iHeart! *2026-08-21, version 10.66.0* Love the options for genre and cities, plus local ads and news updates. I do have my favorite Steve Harvey morning show/podcast. 🫶🏽 ### 5/5 — Relaxing music *2026-08-21, version 10.66.0* I get to enjoy relaxing music without the annoying commercials that the other station whose name starts with a P. In my opinion I Heart is a much better station ### 3/5 — Ad Heavy *2026-08-21, version 10.66.0* IHeart App now is so ad heavy that it’s not much value. I listen to talk radio waiting for interviews I want to hear but there are so many ads through the interview that you miss it. Good news is you can get any content you want. ### 4/5 — Audio issues *2026-08-20, version 10.66.0* Please fix the audio issues with the volume of the mics for the breakfast club stream in the mornings. Production board or engineers needs to up the volume when they’re talking the callers are louder than the cast talking in studio! Also DJ envy mix is low volume then when the commercials come on the volume is better but during his mix the volume is low. ### 4/5 — App visibility *2026-08-20, version 10.66.0* I love using the iheart radio app but I wish you could be able to change the color of the app icon similar to the Ticketmaster and Fox one ones. I feel like a change like this would make it easier to find on my iPhone’s dock where I have this app because it’s right next to my Apple Music ### 4/5 — iHeart Fan *2026-08-19, version 10.66.0* I love iHeart. Sometimes it closes or goes out for minutes. ### 5/5 — My favourites in one place *2026-08-18, version 10.66.0* I just love IHeart radio so easy to select what I want to listen to on my mobile ### 5/5 — Commercials *2026-08-18, version 10.66.0* Too many!!!! ### 5/5 — Get up w/your heart beats *2026-08-17, version 10.66.0* Luv the radio Keep it going ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-17, version 10.66.0* Always on in our house ALL day. We’re vintage peeps lol and vintage is our station. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-16, version 10.66.0* Good to listen to my favourite radio station ### 2/5 — Constant Ads *2026-08-15, version 10.66.0* When I listen to KIIS on iHeart 75% of time they shove so many ads in that’s it’s almost unlistenable. Whenever news is on, between songs (you also miss parts of the songs due to this) or talking from any of the shows they just play ads instead. ### 5/5 — Best App for the best music! *2026-08-15, version 10.66.0* Love it - easy to use , has all the great stations ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — UI/UX mess *2026-08-24, version 10.66.0* The iHeart app is a masterful blend of polyester disco pant design with the functionality of late Soviet Industrial machinery. ### 1/5 — 👎🏼 *2026-08-24, version 10.66.0* This app crashes on me 4-6 times a day ### 1/5 — Broooo *2026-08-24, version 10.66.0* Bro my mom won’t let me get it and I am sooo mad ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load *2026-08-18, version 10.66.0* Doesn’t load ### 1/5 — Ruining Local Radio *2026-08-18, version 10.66.0* I’ll never listen or support iHeart. They are snakes and trying to ruin local radio in Iowa. ### 1/5 — 105.1 que Buena Los Angeles *2026-08-18, version 10.66.0* Add 105.1 que buena Los Angeles to I heart radio ### 1/5 — F Israel *2026-08-12, version 10.66.0* I’d give - stars if I could. Just heard two pro Israel ads in a 20 minute period. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves. Being pro genocide is disgusting. Love my fellow Americans of Jewish decent who don’t support this bd. Do better I heart radio. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-08-11, version 10.66.0* This app sucks it’s glitchy ### 1/5 — Loud commercials *2026-08-11, version 10.66.0* Why must your commercials have to be so loud. I have to turn down volume at work because they are louder than music. And l am constantly adjusting as not to interfere with others in my office. ### 1/5 — Terrible Battery Drain *2026-08-11, version 10.66.0* I use this app daily but it absolutely kills the battery in the background. 1 star until they fix the battery drain issue ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Left pandora for you *2026-08-26, version 10.66.0* I love the continuous music with limited commercial breaks ### 5/5 — Love iHeart Radio! *2026-08-26, version 10.66.0* I just love listening to the old time radio show Tuned to Yesterday.
