Listen to streaming internet radio in an ultra-simple, single-purpose app. Broadcasts makes building a library of stations from around the world easier than ever — no subscription required. Use completely free with a limited-size library of stations, or upgrade to the full version to unlock the library limit and add as many of your own stations as you like from the Station Browser, or manually via URL. Search for stations from around the world as easily as from your own library.  Showcase gorgeous station and track artwork (for supported stations) with the all-new Now Playing screen. Use Shazam (Beta) to power the Now Playing screen with artwork and metadata for stations that do not provide it, or simply to provide an ambient Now Playing experience for music playing nearby. Show the currently playing artwork and metadata on external displays if you want an all-screen experience. Sync your library across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple TV with iCloud & Universal Purchase. Browse stations in grid or list view. Listen in Light or Dark mode. Edit stations to provide your own artwork, or use the Artwork Chooser to generate something fun and colorful. Thoughtful mouse, trackpad & keyboard support provides a great experience on iPad. Perform common tasks from the Command menu, and control playback using keyboard shortcuts. Use Handoff to transfer playback between devices, or AirPlay directly to a home speaker. Listen with just your Apple Watch (Cellular) while out and about, or on Apple TV at home. Supports CarPlay on certified devices; stream internet radio on your CarPlay-enabled head unit directly. Automate playback using Shortcuts.

    Understand US History
    Puerto Rico is not a country, is part of the US (and has been for over 100 years!). It’s stations are regulated by and registered with the FCC. I am shocked people still think is a separate country. Please fix your listing. Show more

    Potential
    The lack of menu bar icon and persistence in the dock is a non starter for me. Seems like streaming app 101.

    Outstanding
    This is a perfect app for streaming Internet radio. It does one thing and does it really well. I was using VLC for this kind of thing before, but Broadcasts is much better. Love the iCloud sync of stations and the custom artwork for stations. Show more

    Big Disappointment
    After so many positive reviews, I tried Broadcasts. Very disappointed. It does not list stations by genre. When searching for a specific kind of music, for instance Ambient, I don't care what country it originates from. I just want the content. There might be times when it's nice to peruse stations from a certain country, but I think most folks are searching for a cerain kind of music. Broadcasts does have a fairly decent database of stations but surely, there have to more than this. Finally, Broadcasts interface isn't the most intuitive. With a bit of time, one can figure out how to use it. Show more

    Missing
    can't get my local radio station in san francisco 107.7 the bone.

    Excellent app
    Love this - very simple, straightforward - and it works so well. Love the huge search of international stations.

    The app is empty
    Nothing loads on this thing until you search for it.

    Imperfect, but best option?
    Best live radio player I've found. I like that my favorite stations can be clumped into collections and shared across devices. Good built-in browser for finding most stations. Basic customization options available (you can add any stream URL and edit station name and image.) Supports Apple CarPlay. A few minor improvements that would bump it to a 5-star rating: - Keyboard support for volume changes on desktop app - "Shuffle" option to pick a random station from my collection - Mini-player for desktop app - Additional metadata options for stations (keep "name" as default, but give nerds the option to add callsign & frequency, location, stream bitrate/codec, rating, tags... bonus points for a map view) - Documentation (only option on help menu is "Contact Support..." email link) Show more

    Easy to use, but still needs SOME documentation.
    This app was recommended so I gave it a shot. I couldn’t figure out how to add a station that wasn’t on the list. There is no documentation. I like the UI, tho. Very clean. Update: I figured it out. Changed my rating. But a help screen wouldn’t hurt. Show more
