If you like sports and live streaming radio, TuneIn may be a good option for you. The app comes with five main sections: Sports, Radio, News & Talk, Podcast and Music. You can scroll down on the homepage to see lists of the most popular stations, local radio stations and popular podcasts in your area. You can also select any of the main categories and browse the options within it.
To start listening to a podcast, simply tap on it. Now you can adjust the speed of the podcast, set a timer for sleep, add it to your favorites or share the episode. If you’re listening while driving, tap the More button in the top right corner and select Auto mode. This will simplify the app’s interface and make it easier to manage playback without distracting you from driving. The Car Mode feature enlarges the buttons and displays the most important functions, such as play, pause and skip, along with easy access to your favorite content so you can have a safer and more convenient listening experience while on the road.
The free version of TuneIn gives you access to over 100,000 radio stations from around the world, a collection of 5.7 million podcasts, live news from popular networks around you, and live local sports talk. The premium version adds more than 100,000 ad-free audiobooks, MLB and NHL games, and a variety of ad-free music stations for $9.99 per month.
