World Radio streams live stations from every corner of the planet — with a real equalizer, animated visualizers, a radio alarm clock, sleep timer and car mode. Completely free.
The home screen puts your whole radio life in front of you. Recently Played brings back the stations you just heard, while 🔥 Trending Worldwide shows the Top 10 stations people are listening to right now across the globe.
One-tap cards jump straight to your Favorites and the Alarm, and the mini player at the bottom keeps the current station — and the song playing on it — always in reach.
Browse stations country by country — each entry shows the flag and how many stations are inside. Brazil, the Netherlands, Portugal, Bosnia… and when a country you want isn't there yet, just hit ＋ Add Country and it joins your list.
The list is yours to control: reorder countries so your favorites sit on top, and remove any country you've added with a simple tap & hold. Radio keeps playing in the mini player the whole time you browse.
Open any country and you get a clean list of its stations — each with its own logo, name and genre, from BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6 Music to Kiss FM UK and BBC World Service. Tap the ❤️ on any station to save it straight to your Favorites.
Just like the country list, this one is yours to arrange: use the reorder button in the top corner to sort your stations, and tap & hold any station you've added yourself to remove it.
The Now Playing screen is the heart of the app. An animated spectrum dances above the station name, and the NOW PLAYING card shows the artist and song title live, straight from the station's stream.
Skip to the previous or next station with the side buttons, pause with the big central control, and fine-tune the loudness with the dedicated in-app volume slider. Equalizer, visualization style and sleep timer are all one tap below.
A real audio equalizer, built in. Five frequency bands — 60 Hz, 230 Hz, 910 Hz, 3.6 kHz and 14 kHz — let you lift the bass, tame the mids or add sparkle to the highs, each adjustable from −15 to +15 dB.
Below the bands, Bass Boost adds physical punch and 3D Surround widens the stage for headphones. One switch turns the whole chain on or off, and Reset takes you back to flat in a tap.
Music you can see. Eleven distinct visualizer styles that react in real time to whatever is playing — from classic bars and analogue VU needles to a DNA helix, an orbiting planet system and a 3D tunnel of blocks.
Switching is instant: tap the Visualization button on the player, choose a style, and the spectrum redraws on the spot. Each style has its own character, from smooth classic bars to a crisp LED-segment wall.
A full spectrum in green, with peak markers that hang for a moment above each band.
A wall of separate segments that light up one by one — the crispest of them all.
Rounded bars with a soft reflection underneath, as if the sound were sitting on glass.
The same spectrum wrapped into a circle, radiating outwards from the centre.
Minimal hairlines for a quiet, uncluttered player that stays out of the way.
Two analogue needles swinging with the left and right channel, straight out of a vintage amplifier.
Two glowing strands twisting around each other. Bass opens the helix out, the highs light up the points running along it.
A core that pulses with the low end, circled by three orbits — each one tied to its own part of the spectrum. A strong beat sends the particles flying outwards.
A tunnel of blocks flying towards you, rising and falling with the bass while the colours drift from purple through magenta to cyan.
A dense waveform mirrored around the centre line, running orange to blue across the screen, with a vintage microphone standing in the light.
The same wave with two listeners caught in it — one close to you, one further back behind the bars.
Tap 🌙 Sleep Timer and choose 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes — the radio fades out and stops on its own once you're asleep, saving battery and data.
The same row of tools includes Share to send the station you're enjoying to a friend, a full Stop button, and the 🚗 shortcut into Car Mode.
On the road, small controls are dangerous. Car Mode strips the player down to what matters: a huge play/pause button you can hit without looking, the station name in oversized type, the current song, a LIVE badge and one big Stop button.
The visualizer keeps the screen alive while you drive, and Exit returns you to the full player the moment you park.
Forget the default beep. World Radio's alarm clock wakes you up with live radio: set the time, pick the days of the week to repeat — Monday through Sunday — and choose exactly which station starts playing.
Set it once for workday mornings, add another for the weekend, and every day starts with music instead of noise.
Thousands of live stations, a real equalizer and everything above — free, in 15 languages, on any Android phone.
