Most radio stations stream their radio broadcast on the Internet. This makes it easy to listen to your favorite radio stations on your iPhone. The iOS software uses three services, iHeartRadio, Tunein, and Audacy to bring over 100,000 stations to the iPhone.
Play a Radio Station with Siri
Activate Siri on your iPhone and say, “Play [station name or call sign].” If you are unsure about the station’s name or call sign, go to a website such as radiolineup.com to find the name and call sign.
If the station you requested is available, it will start to play using the Apple Music app. If the station isn’t available, Siri will pick a different station with a similar call sign or with the same station number from a larger city.
If you are traveling, you can continue to listen to your favorite radio stations on your iPhone, even when out of their radio broadcast range.
