A station won’t play

Every station is the broadcaster’s live stream, so it depends on their servers. If one shows a connection message, press play to retry or try again later; other stations keep working. Some broadcasters limit their streams to certain countries. Dial reconnects on its own after your network drops.

Changing city or country

Use the location button at the bottom of the player to choose a country, then a city. Stations without a local frequency are under Other stations. Use my location picks your country once; it never changes stations as you travel. In Stations, the location filter browses any country without changing the dial.

Favorites and saved titles

Open a station’s details by tapping its frequency, artwork or name, then Add favorite. Favorites appear in Stations. When a station sends the current song or program, tap it to save the title or look it up. Favorites and titles stay on each device and are not synced.

Sleep timer, alarms and Shortcuts

Settings has a 15 to 60 minute sleep timer. On iPhone with iOS 26.1 or later, station alarms ring through the system and offer Play station to open Dial; they cannot start internet radio on their own while Dial is closed. In Shortcuts, Dial offers Play station, Play Dial and Pause Dial.

On Mac

The same app runs on Mac. Screens open inside the player window and close with the back arrow or Esc. The Playback menu has Play/Pause (⌘P) and Next and Previous Station (⌘→ and ⌘←). Closing the window keeps the radio playing; click Dial in the Dock to bring it back.

Bug reports

Include the station, what happened, your device model and system version, and a screenshot if one helps.

Trademarks
