## What is Radio FM?

Thousands of stations from across the planet. Identify the song instantly, listen with your screen locked, and take it to the car with CarPlay. No account, no ads, no tracking.

Discover by genre and language.
Search in real time as you type, or explore by category: rock, pop, jazz, salsa, electronic, news… and filter by language. The Top ranking adapts to your country automatically.

Identify the song that's playing.
The station broadcasts the artist and title live. Like it? A tap of the magnifier opens it straight in your favorite music app — nothing to copy, without leaving the app.

Favorites at a tap
Mark your stations and start playing from the Home screen instantly. They sync with CarPlay too.

Keeps playing, whatever you do
Background audio with the app closed or the iPhone locked. Controls on the lock screen, Dynamic Island, Control Center and AirPods.

Fall asleep with the radio on.
Set a sleep timer with presets or your own time on the native iOS wheel. The volume fades down gently over the last 20 seconds so it won't wake you.

Your radio jumps to the car with CarPlay.
Favorites and Top on the car screen, with play/pause and album art on the head unit. Audio reroutes itself when you connect — and keeps playing even if the iPhone app was closed.

No account. No ads. No tracking. Truly free.
Your favorites and your history live only on your iPhone. No cloud, no backend, nothing collected about you. The app doesn't ask you to sign up because it doesn't need to.

### 5/5 — Excellent!! 5⭐️

*2026-08-25*

UPDATE 25 August:  Great update!! This app is now my go-to radio app. Can you please add drag-and-drop sorting for favorites? Thanks, and please continue developing!!

The visual design and UX are excellent. Stations are easy to find and to favorite. Needs sorting function for favorites list; and functional arrow keys to cycle through stations—particularly important for CarPlay. Please do keep developing — app has great potential.

**Developer response:** UPDATE 27 August: 

Thank you for coming back to update your review — and for the five stars, again! 🙂 
Really happy the app is now your go-to.

Glad the new favorites sorting and the next/previous controls (including CarPlay) landed well — both came straight from your feedback.

And good catch: right now you can sort by recently added or by name, but there’s no custom order yet. Drag-and-drop reordering for favorites is a great idea, and it’s on the list for an upcoming update.

Thanks again for the support and the thoughtful suggestions!

Thank you so much for the review and for taking the time to share these ideas! 🙂

Really glad the design and station search are working well for you.

And great suggestions, both of them. I’m adding sorting for the favorites list and next/previous controls to skip between stations — both coming soon.

Thanks again for the encouragement — more coming!
