Limiting the amount of skips and you can not just listen for a few seconds and track hop new songs to see if you like live or hate. So. I heart. Eh not the great!

iHeartRadio
Feb 4, 2018 By toddster70I would have given it a five star BC I simply love being too listen to my home rock station when I'm working BC I work out of town most of time. But for some crazy reason lately it has started at 100% volume, even just now I got a head start on it and began working it down to about 60 % for it just to jump right back full blast even though I was holding down on volume button. Now I really can't explain how out why it would be turning down and almost to the half mark just for it to jump to the full volume while I'm still holding on the volume but this is not some thing that I can take or tolerate at 615 am nor will my boss's or work mates at this time in the morning and hell it could give some one a heart attack when u go from nor hearing a thing where a needle could be able to be heard hitting the floor. But you could say every one is awake today after this Bluetooth box going off. Please let me know what could and out can be done and if it's anything to do on my part in really sorry for not given the extra star but I had the volume working down for it to start over. Thanks and please have this fixed or fixed for me. Have no complaints about anything else so everyone download this app and listen to your favorite tubes so day and all the time for free. more -
Good App for streaming
Jun 5, 2019 By JLChaney's iPhoneIt really is a good app. On the plus side, it is efficient with band usage if you have a limited internet plan. It is stable, with good buffering (I have lousy internet in my area so this is vital to me). It has a lot of content, including podcasts galore that can be downloaded. The minus, for which I deduct the stars has been to do with the ads. (I know, I could subscribe, but the monthly is too high for what I am listening too. Maybe some day someone can develop some sort of tiered subscriptions for those of us who just listen to limited content). I listen to a 24 hr news show with commentary. I grew up listening to KFI640 Los Angeles every morning. I don’t begrudge iheart for slipping in a couple of ads here and there, but you step right over THE PROGRAM ITSELF! Your ads should step on top of their ads, not the program. I want the whole news, not just the commentary. That’s what I chose, and it infuriates me when you cut the program off for a crappy 7-11 add, for which I will NEVER set foot in as my blood pressure rises, every time I see the sign and am reminded it’s going to INTERRUPT the program I am listening to in the morning. Iheart could program the timing of their ads better than this. more -
Good App (Usually...)
Jan 5, 2018 By Rosemaryadventure23Edit: It seems like all of the other problems I list below are gone now, due to the fact that I can’t get the app to play ANY music now. None of my stations work, they all constantly have a loading symbol, and where the artist’s other songs/info are, it says, “Artist Profile is not available at this time”. The app is completely useless to me at this point because it doesn’t do anything, and this started today only a few hours ago. This can’t be a phone problem because I have the latest iOS on a brand new iPhone 8. I’m hoping this will be fixed soon. I've used this app for a few years, and I've discovered many new artists and songs through this app. However, I've been experiencing a few problems lately. My biggest problem is that sometimes the app will refresh in the middle of a song, and not just pause it, but get rid of the song completely. I'm not sure if I can fix this in my phone settings or if it's an app issue, but this has never happened before. Another issue is that some ads with sound play at the same time as a song, which is obviously annoying. Overall, it is a good app and does what it promises, but with a few bugs. more -
Subscription
Sep 19, 2018 By Funbro1I was charged $5.99 for a subscription that I was “tricked” into signing up for. I canceled the subscription within minutes of discovering that I had signed up for it, but ended up being charged anyway. I went to the online help on the iHeartRadio app to verify that my subscription was canceled and there is no unsubscribe button to hit. I then emailed iHeartRadio and received this response. “iHeartRadio Customer Support does not internally handle subscriptions processed through Apple. However, if you need to cancel your subscription, you can do so by following the procedure below:” I folloedthe procedure “below” only to get to a dead end. I sure hope I don’t get charged again, I guess I will have to open up a dispute through my credit card company at this point. In the future I will be very very careful what buttons that I tap. It’s a shame that the app gets updated and changes around so much that it is unfamiliar if you don’t use it every single day. Through the many updates I have also lost my favorite stations and my saved stations, and it gets really frustrating. more -
Love iHeartRadio and stuff to blow your mind
Oct 23, 2020 By scooter 501I really enjoy listening while working or just enjoying the show. Because I’m a new listener I do find it hard to navigate around the “Stuff” material. The list is so long that I find myself getting lost in the scrolling. It would be very helpful to divide the listening segments into groups, such as years of dates. That way you could find your place easier. I have recommended the show to friends but they all have trouble finding a particular podcast that I recommended. I also find it interesting that the earlier segments that date from 2010, which were hosted by a guy and gal had a different point of view than the more recent segments hosted by the two guys. (Sorry they are great but I can’t remember their names) I enjoy the male point of view that comes across but the difference is noticeable to me. Maybe they could throw in a female cohost once in a while. more

Great but one issue...
Jun 4, 2019 By Reviewer errrrrI am completely loving this app. Features that I love is that it plays in the background of any other app. This is the best especially when using Waze in the car. I can still get the verbal directions from waze and the volume of iHeartRadio goes lower but doesn’t shut off! Also, when I close the app mid podcast, the podcast restarts automatically upon returning to the app. This also continues playing when minimized and when the phone is locked. The only feature that I would love to see change is the order in which the podcasts play. Instead of going up the list, example #4 to #5, the podcasts will play going down the list from #5 to #4. This means that you have to physically go into the app and click on the next podcast on the list. This is something that I hate doing, particularly when driving as it’s dangerous! I would love for iHeartRadio to fix this issue so that I can play a podcast list, and let it run up the list without needing to reopen the app and physically tap the next on the list. Besides this issue, I love this app for podcasts! more -
Jul 10, 2022 By Maureen KUpdated my review and now a 5 star, the glitch of songs stopping was definitely fixed. My only suggestion is can we have a rating system on songs instead of do you like this yes or no, some songs I love and want to hear a lot of and some are just ok but I still like them. And some I just don't like at all. I'm not sure how that would work with your algorithm system or how easy or difficult that would be to update, but a suggestion if possible! more -
Good app, frustrating glitch though.
Jul 31, 2022 By Foxmoon9❤️Hey. So, I love this app, especially for listening to podcasts, but lately i haven’t been able to. This has been happening for about five days at the moment, and I’ve updated the app. I’ve tried it on multiple accounts (I have two devices and got locked out of my original account on one of them and wasn’t able to get back in, would be great if that could be fixed too) but it hasn’t worked on either. I’m wondering if this is an issue with my Wi-Fi, if it’s something to do with my country (Canada, and the podcast is Australian, though I could listen to it in the USA and on my road trip back up to Canada), or a glitch that other people are having too. I’m pretty frustrated by this, and would love some help. I understand you guys are busy, but when you see this I’d love a reply. I usually listen to podcast with this app, and it’s pretty annoying that I can’t lately. All in all, iHeart Radio is a good app and I recommend it. It’s a tad bit money-hungry sometimes, but it’s still pretty good. Thanks! more -
Jul 21, 2022 By Woodley DesireGood app with annoying side effect. I like the app. I can listen to my local talk station from anywhere. But i dont like that it automatically starts up once i tether my android auto to the car. It stops my FM/Sirius and my mp3/audio books and takes over. I've turned off the autoplay feature on both android and the iheart app and it still happens. Great app but this problem is making me want to remove it all together cuz its the only app that does it on both my samsung and my apple phones more

Was great on Windows Phone, new web app version six
Dec 10, 2017 By Nominally NormalLoved this app on my Windows Phone, installed it when I was forced to switch to iPhone (which has been an inferior user experience in almost every way - it can’t even do autocorrect as well as the WP, but I digress), and it was pretty similar throughout the fall of 2017... logged in today, December, to find everything changed. I can’t figure out how to get to my favorite artist-based station (can find artist in search, but there doesn’t seem to be a station option anymore?) can’t find the Recently Played Songs list once I’m playing a station. It’s fine to change things, but not in such an extreme way that it appears so nonsensical to even fairly on-top-of-things users that they can’t easily find the features that are important to them. I don’t know if it was a web app before, but it must be because I don’t recall downloading an update and everything is just a little off, not polished and smooth like a native app would be. I expected that sort of thing on a minority platform like WP, but it’s really disappointing to have a worse experience on a brand new iPhone. Anyway, this app is in need of some major organizing/UI changes before it can match the user experience of previous versions. If I have to put in hours curating my stations (which looks like the direction this is going), as opposed to having a variety of stations that are good, just need minor tweaks to be great, I’d might as well use Pandora! more -
Aug 4, 2022 By Mike GolisThe content on iHeart is the only reason I have it on my phone. App randomly decides to close itself, the new layout after the last update is terrible, it constantly disconnects from my blue tooth ear buds (I've tried 3 different kinds and never happens with other apps) and the only thing that fixes that is restarting my phone. If the shows I listen to were available anywhere else, I wouldn't touch this app. more -
Jul 30, 2022 By Justina RaeI used to listen to this app all the time, but now when I'm trying to listen to a morning show on 95.7 the Jet in Seattle, the app cuts it off and plays ads and music that isn't even playing on that station. It's very frustrating and wish I would go back! Radio stations play enough ads, don't add more on top of it! more -
Jul 29, 2022 By K to the LThis app worked perfectly till... They started to get stupid with the ads. At that point I'm no longer even able to connect to use it regardless... The music selection ain't that great anyway time to find some competition that does things right. I'm not sure how you undo a heart but you guys figured it out. more -
Jul 21, 2022 By MotohioWhen ad fails to load all sound just freezes or a song and an ad will play simultaneously. Both extremely inconvenient while driving and unable to trouble shoot. Also don't like how I can't choose between "edited" and "dirty" songs...get that edited crud out of my music, I want it the way the creator intended. Also when you listen to an artist station it's like e ery 10+ songs you get one from that artists ..really? If the ad glitches were fixed my ratings would be higher. more -
Jul 21, 2022 By Jorge NaranjoNew issues! 7/21/22 now app just stops and continues when it feels like it. Ver bad app!! Commercials run over and over and the live stream never comes back on. They run again and again nonstop. Seriuosly!!!! Also no real live stations!!!! Everything I listen too seems to be delayed by hours and then commercials start running over and over, the same ones. So tiring just plain trash, really!!! more -
Aug 9, 2022 By David SommerHorrible, lately. Worked great for years, but now? Frequently crashes. Restarting the app rarely helps, and rebooting the device doesn't help. So far today, I've had 5 minutes of correct function out of 3 HOURS of attempted use. Based on all the similar reviews going back quite awhile it appears that the developers are less concerned with user experience than with getting that ad revenue. Lmfao ! How do they expect incoming ad revenue, when users flee in droves because the app is broken. FIX IT! more -
It’s all about the money
Sep 15, 2019 By Chief ColoradoI really thought I’d struck gold when i-heart radio was commercial free without a fee. Then it happened, they now charge for commercial free and the free station is littered with commercials that are louder and obnoxious in between the music I love to listen to each day. It’s sad it’s about the money and nothing is sacred anymore without a profit motive. The commercials can’t be manually jumped over and they are louder than the volume of the music. They interfere with atmosphere of the songs being played. I manually reduced the volume so I don’t have to listen to the drivel of each commercial played. Then they put you through a torturous video commercial at startup before you get to listen to your favorite music. Honestly, I can’t even remember one of their commercial sponsors except for the monotone , “Cars for kids “ that I muted until it goes over. We are so mercifully pelted with commercials these days that I don’t honestly remember any commercial I hear. If I’m going to by something, I use a search engine to find what I’m in need of and not brainwashed into buying something from an obnoxious repetitive commercial. If anything, I’m repelled by the commercials and boycott their products. Thank you for the opportunity to vent my displeasure with today’s technology held hostage by advertising ad-nauseum. Yuck! more -
Jul 3, 2022 By Brandon beaverI was paying for ad free,unlimited skips and the a ility to pick any song and listen to it. I had this subscription for years. Now I just have ad free and unlimited skips. Was never told the subscription was changing, just went to play a song and it told me I need to upgrade. I checked the upgrade and it's $9.99! I just canceled my subscription. Bad decision. I will looking for another music app. You'd think that a company this big made enough money and wouldn't need to screw over loyal customer more -
Jun 28, 2022 By CJ GI love the app, I use it everyday for hours. BUT, it constantly skips if another app refreshes, then it plays Ushers "Yeah" almost every single time. There are maybe 3 songs that rotate everytime there's a skip on the app & it cuts into what I'm currently listening to until the song ends & then it'll bring me to the station I'm listening to. This is incredibly annoying & is the main reason for 2 stars. The app needs more stability & figure out a way to go right back to what I was listening to. more

Love iHeartRadio and stuff to blow your mind
Oct 23, 2020 By scooter 501I really enjoy listening while working or just enjoying the show. Because I’m a new listener I do find it hard to navigate around the “Stuff” material. The list is so long that I find myself getting lost in the scrolling. It would be very helpful to divide the listening segments into groups, such as years of dates. That way you could find your place easier. I have recommended the show to friends but they all have trouble finding a particular podcast that I recommended. I also find it interesting that the earlier segments that date from 2010, which were hosted by a guy and gal had a different point of view than the more recent segments hosted by the two guys. (Sorry they are great but I can’t remember their names) I enjoy the male point of view that comes across but the difference is noticeable to me. Maybe they could throw in a female cohost once in a while. more -
Jul 10, 2022 By Maureen KUpdated my review and now a 5 star, the glitch of songs stopping was definitely fixed. My only suggestion is can we have a rating system on songs instead of do you like this yes or no, some songs I love and want to hear a lot of and some are just ok but I still like them. And some I just don't like at all. I'm not sure how that would work with your algorithm system or how easy or difficult that would be to update, but a suggestion if possible! more -
Podcast playback could be better
Apr 15, 2020 By Arrowhead ChiefI recently jumped from apple’s podcast system to this to hear my favorite radio podcast John and Ken because iHeart stopped having the Friday show on the Apple podcast stream. A move to get you to the iHeart app. Well I’m here and the podcast features are not that robust. The per episode playback order always goes newest to oldest and you can’t turn it the other way around. For catching up you have to remember that or you end up hearing the show out of order which is annoying if you just let the run to the next episode. No sleep timer available which helps you not run into other shows if you fall asleep listening. I got through eight episodes that way in one night. The skip features could be better and should be configurable. Get the settings better and I’ll rate you higher. Radio play of live content is great. Sound is clear. more -
I love this app except
Jul 5, 2022 By Caroline CarbaughAs much as I love this app I’m just coming in here to say that the American top 40s station that I listen to to see where songs are in the chart each week I’m noticing that that station is not working I don’t know if it is technical difficulties but what I’ve noticed is for the Father’s Day weekend episode I’m trying to turn into that one and right after it plays cool for the Summer by Demi Lovato wasn’t extra to celebrate the summer season it goes straight back to the episode from a week ago I don’t know if it’s something wrong with the station or the app but I want to let you know I also contacted the station via Instagram but if you can look into fixing this this would be great Lee appreciated thank you update, there must have been technical difficulties from that week and finally get the stream functioning normal now because it only happened during the course that week. more -
Battery Hog
Oct 25, 2020 By fxdp "That name is tsken"More stable than the older version but uses battery at a MUCH higher rate than the prior version on my iPhone X. I usually listen to the app 7-9 hrs per day and the battery was at 40%-55% at the end of the day. Now it’s 5% and the battery log shows it’s all iHeart Radio. I wish I could go back to the old version. (Similar issues using cell data while it’s connected to WiFi.) Since writing this review (previously 4 stars, since downgraded) the developer contacted me. They sent me the following “workarounds:” “ Could you try going into your settings on your phone and check under apps and notifications - iHeartRadio - useage to make sure iHeartRadio isn't excluded from power saving features.” Well, DUH!! And then this: “ For iPhone X users, please follow the steps below: Swipe from the bottom of the screen and hold your thumb on the screen until it shows all of your open apps. Hold down on the iHeartRadio app until you see a red minus symbol appear at the top left corner of the app Click the red minus symbol to exit and close the iHeartRadio app”. IMO, this is utterly unacceptable and an insulting ask. When I stop playing and/or close the app I expect it to STOP ALL FUNCTIONS without any further BS. It does not. The old version did and worked tolerably well. I should never have “updated” it. I have deleted it. Avoid this app. more -
American Top 40 with Casey Kasem!
Aug 14, 2018 By wxntrafficfanBack when I had my car, I was paying $30/month for Sirius XM expressly for the purpose of listening to one Casey Kasem show each week. Someone on Facebook had suggested that I login to iHeartRadio and simply search “Casey Kasem”, and I found a channel that streams just American Top 40 shows from the 70s and 80s 24/7! Being only 25, I was never able to listen to his shows live, and Casey had passed just as I started getting into his shows in 2014. I had previously only kept iHeartRadio on my iPhone and iPad to be able to stream a station out of Grand Rapids, Michigan in November and December each year when they switch to Christmas music. Needless to say, I stream American Top 40 through iHeartRadio at least 1-2 hours a day, and often listen to it for extended periods while at work. Thank you iHeartRadio for making it possible for me to listen to an icon I didn’t get to know until it was too late. more -
aesthetically pleasing and easy to use 5+✨
May 28, 2022 By Jenny#8675409:):):)Aesthetically pleasing from the moment I opened the app! From the fonts used down to the layout of the screens tabs section it’s just easy to read and it is very user friendly By far the most beautifully designed music app I’ve seen in awhile! easy to navigate and good for a free trail month pass ! I’m trying it out this month , but I think I have a feeling I’ll be sticking with this app ☝️ By far my favorite music app atm! 5 stars ✨ for this beautifully designed app! Love all the music and the easy to read layout of the app. Excellent for exploring new music and discovering new songs as well as containing the best known music. 💯 music lover’s dream come true. I highly recommend this app ☝️ as I have tried many different apps and this one is supreme by far my favorite ! 🙌🙌 more -
iHeart Radio App for iPhone 7
Mar 8, 2019 By HnTresSI have been listening to the music on this app for over a week now and I can't enough of it. They made it easy to navigate with great features. It works for me and I haven't experienced any problems as of yet. I think that this app is awesome and I usually don't write many reviews on things unless it's worth my time. Besides there is an app for everything now a days to sit there and rate them all when you download or use them would take a while, at least in my case. I recommend iHeart Radio for those of you who love music without tons of commercial breaks. Thanks iHeart Radio and keep up the good work. So far you have a really great thing going for you and I hope that it doesn't change to much over time with a bunch of pointless improvements or updates that aren't necessary to the users or listeners. more -
Disregard my stars, this app is Crap!
May 9, 2021 By 450 HondaThis app has turned into a peace of Shiiiit! They just started running adds non stop! I mean you have to work at it to get the adds to stop playing by pausing the app and then sometimes it will go to the station you want, if your lucky you then will get another commercial that is only 30 seconds long, then after messing and listening to commercials for 15-20 minutes, you will get to listen to more legitimate commercials from the station you were trying to listen to, then when you station is actually playing, out of nowhere the app will go back into endless and I mean endless commercials and you have to mess with it nonstop and go through the same cycle again to get to the station you wanted to hear, what a holy piece of MF crap! more

iHeartRadio
Feb 4, 2018 By toddster70I would have given it a five star BC I simply love being too listen to my home rock station when I'm working BC I work out of town most of time. But for some crazy reason lately it has started at 100% volume, even just now I got a head start on it and began working it down to about 60 % for it just to jump right back full blast even though I was holding down on volume button. Now I really can't explain how out why it would be turning down and almost to the half mark just for it to jump to the full volume while I'm still holding on the volume but this is not some thing that I can take or tolerate at 615 am nor will my boss's or work mates at this time in the morning and hell it could give some one a heart attack when u go from nor hearing a thing where a needle could be able to be heard hitting the floor. But you could say every one is awake today after this Bluetooth box going off. Please let me know what could and out can be done and if it's anything to do on my part in really sorry for not given the extra star but I had the volume working down for it to start over. Thanks and please have this fixed or fixed for me. Have no complaints about anything else so everyone download this app and listen to your favorite tubes so day and all the time for free. more -
Great but one issue...
Jun 4, 2019 By Reviewer errrrrI am completely loving this app. Features that I love is that it plays in the background of any other app. This is the best especially when using Waze in the car. I can still get the verbal directions from waze and the volume of iHeartRadio goes lower but doesn’t shut off! Also, when I close the app mid podcast, the podcast restarts automatically upon returning to the app. This also continues playing when minimized and when the phone is locked. The only feature that I would love to see change is the order in which the podcasts play. Instead of going up the list, example #4 to #5, the podcasts will play going down the list from #5 to #4. This means that you have to physically go into the app and click on the next podcast on the list. This is something that I hate doing, particularly when driving as it’s dangerous! I would love for iHeartRadio to fix this issue so that I can play a podcast list, and let it run up the list without needing to reopen the app and physically tap the next on the list. Besides this issue, I love this app for podcasts! more -
Good app, frustrating glitch though.
Jul 31, 2022 By Foxmoon9❤️Hey. So, I love this app, especially for listening to podcasts, but lately i haven’t been able to. This has been happening for about five days at the moment, and I’ve updated the app. I’ve tried it on multiple accounts (I have two devices and got locked out of my original account on one of them and wasn’t able to get back in, would be great if that could be fixed too) but it hasn’t worked on either. I’m wondering if this is an issue with my Wi-Fi, if it’s something to do with my country (Canada, and the podcast is Australian, though I could listen to it in the USA and on my road trip back up to Canada), or a glitch that other people are having too. I’m pretty frustrated by this, and would love some help. I understand you guys are busy, but when you see this I’d love a reply. I usually listen to podcast with this app, and it’s pretty annoying that I can’t lately. All in all, iHeart Radio is a good app and I recommend it. It’s a tad bit money-hungry sometimes, but it’s still pretty good. Thanks! more -
I love the content, but not the updates
Dec 17, 2017 By Sammich12I first got iHeartRadio on my old ipod on ios6 and I loved it. They had a setting where I could explore music or listen to mostly the same stuff. They did away with that and I miss it. Since then they’ve made the sleep timer harder to access, and everytime I open the app I’m baraged with an ad to try to upgrade to a paid version. I don’ mind seeing that maybe once a week, but I’m using other apps more because I get this annoying self add every time I open the app. It’s also harder to find the most recent radio stations I listen to. It keeps getting harder and harder with the new updates. Lastly, I love the play on start-up feature, but lately it doesn’t work (even when turned on in the settings) probably because of the ad I have to close out of. I’ve dug out my old ipod and I now mostly listen to iHeartRadio from that with whatever version ios6 can handle more -
Love/Annoyed
Feb 10, 2020 By ella robI love iHeartRadio 99.9 KSAB the best tejano music choices especially those who live on boarders of Texas because all you hear is music from Mexico (for those who like that music is great ) although born and raise with tejano/conjunto prefer 99.9 KSAB station I can have your station on all day and all night but....I never hear any stories from our Texas musicians from our original State “Texas” all I hear is other musicians from other states or countries on how they started there music which I hardly hear their kind of music on your station and I get annoyed when the same story is on night after night so if you read this and knowing I am a big fan of iHeartRadio 99.9 from Robstown Texas please get this message to the station I want to hear how Intocable or Little Joe or Elida Reyna and so on and so on started as musicians ...supporting our local and getting to know our famous musicians that are rocking the USA as we speak ...thank you more -
Great App - Playback Needs Work
May 12, 2021 By Willy0909Great app to be able to listen to any genre of music or listen to talk radio from anywhere in the world. Playback at times (and becoming more and more frequent) will repeat the same portion of a segment (no skip or scratch when it happens, so kudos for that) and will have to listen to the same portion of what was being said. Not certain if this is a buffering issue, but seems to only happen during talk radio programs. One pesky issue, when receiving a call, inadvertently stopping a talk radio show, commercials/ads will run again before getting back into the same station/program. Should be a way for the program to see that you have not left the station in order jump right back into the program, otherwise you miss a portion of the program that at times is vital to understanding the conversation. more -
Love this app, but the ads can be repetitive
Dec 13, 2020 By FlugelbreadI have been listening to iHeart for years now, and I love it. However, I’ve noticed in the last year that sometimes I’ll go for a week or longer where I’ll get the exact same ad over and over again, once or twice (often twice in a row) EVERY ad break and it gets super annoying. Right now it’s for the “you down” podcast, which I can now guarantee I will NEVER listen to because I am so thoroughly irritated. I get why there are ads and I’m not complaining about that. A few months ago it was one particular political ad that was overly repetitive, and before that a Progressive insurance ad (at least those are funny!). Sometimes I get so fed up I turn it off. Still love iHeart, just hope they get the ads sorted out soon. 😄❤️ more -
So many songs I never wanted to hear
Dec 20, 2017 By LusitaniaAngel313So the only reason why I’m not ranking this 5 stars is my own favorites station. Before I had a pretty finite selection and I was cool with that! Now I’m flooded by songs I don’t really care for and it seems if I thumb them down, they return days later (example being Uptown Funk which I completely despise)! While yes the station will play some of the songs I do care for, once they switch to what they THINK I like, good luck getting my songs to play again. Also it annoys me when the same station flat out quits and won’t play anything! Like it ran out of content! Now I will admit this station has pulled some interesting surprises like pulling Jump by Rihanna to the station which made me happy as can be. I still listen wholeheartedly because where else can I blast CENTURIES into my ears? ;) more -
Better Than Radio
Jan 25, 2018 By AlphadogtuckerI use this app every day. You can “create” “stations” that play music similar to your choice such as a band or style, although choices off the mainstrsam can be very limited. For example, if you choose Taiko, it won’t be long before Zaideco or Euro muzac is playing. IHR has a great selection of AM and FM radio stations. Great for listening to the news back home or that talk radio program that doesn’t play in your area. The trade-off here is the repetitive, ear-grating PSAs and ads that they play over the stations’ ads. If I could, I would pay the subscription price just to get rid of those awful PSAs. Don’t forget podcasts. IHR has a great collection with many categories. I listen to several about business and career skills. My favorites, though, are Ben Shapiro and Wretched Radio. Shapiro is a sharp political commentator who examines all sides and does not let party loyalty or ideology get in the way. Wretched Radio keeps you aware of movements and deviations from biblical Christianity but without the judgmentalism (except where it’s been earned). There are so many choices, it’s impossible to keep up. And you don’t have problems with interference or fading, as long as you have a good Internet connection. more -
Overall, Satisfied
Apr 14, 2020 By D-SelbI do love IHeartRadio for the events they support and the music and podcasts they give a platform for. My only issue (it could very well just be myself overlooking a setting or something) is that if I am listening to the app and check a text or my phone locks after a few minutes, the app stops playing. Very annoying. I find myself often giving up on podcasts and just using my own personal music library or pandora when IHeartRadio continues to stop playing. I’ve check my settings in my phone as well as inside the iheartApp and haven’t seen anything indicating that I’m having a setting issue. Overall, I am happy, my only issue could be written off as a “first world problem” so truly, I don’t have anything really negative to say about IHeartRadio. more

Aug 8, 2022 By Faith CarmichaelGreat selection, but the app makes it really difficult to shop for new tracks. Limiting the amount of skips and you can not just listen for a few seconds and track hop new songs to see if you like live or hate. So. I heart. Eh not the great! Also no crossfire between tracks abrupt transition of music . Also no cool visuals to the beat more -
Good App for streaming
Jun 5, 2019 By JLChaney's iPhoneIt really is a good app. On the plus side, it is efficient with band usage if you have a limited internet plan. It is stable, with good buffering (I have lousy internet in my area so this is vital to me). It has a lot of content, including podcasts galore that can be downloaded. The minus, for which I deduct the stars has been to do with the ads. (I know, I could subscribe, but the monthly is too high for what I am listening too. Maybe some day someone can develop some sort of tiered subscriptions for those of us who just listen to limited content). I listen to a 24 hr news show with commentary. I grew up listening to KFI640 Los Angeles every morning. I don’t begrudge iheart for slipping in a couple of ads here and there, but you step right over THE PROGRAM ITSELF! Your ads should step on top of their ads, not the program. I want the whole news, not just the commentary. That’s what I chose, and it infuriates me when you cut the program off for a crappy 7-11 add, for which I will NEVER set foot in as my blood pressure rises, every time I see the sign and am reminded it’s going to INTERRUPT the program I am listening to in the morning. Iheart could program the timing of their ads better than this. more -
Good App (Usually...)
Jan 5, 2018 By Rosemaryadventure23Edit: It seems like all of the other problems I list below are gone now, due to the fact that I can’t get the app to play ANY music now. None of my stations work, they all constantly have a loading symbol, and where the artist’s other songs/info are, it says, “Artist Profile is not available at this time”. The app is completely useless to me at this point because it doesn’t do anything, and this started today only a few hours ago. This can’t be a phone problem because I have the latest iOS on a brand new iPhone 8. I’m hoping this will be fixed soon. I've used this app for a few years, and I've discovered many new artists and songs through this app. However, I've been experiencing a few problems lately. My biggest problem is that sometimes the app will refresh in the middle of a song, and not just pause it, but get rid of the song completely. I'm not sure if I can fix this in my phone settings or if it's an app issue, but this has never happened before. Another issue is that some ads with sound play at the same time as a song, which is obviously annoying. Overall, it is a good app and does what it promises, but with a few bugs. more -
Jul 21, 2022 By Woodley DesireGood app with annoying side effect. I like the app. I can listen to my local talk station from anywhere. But i dont like that it automatically starts up once i tether my android auto to the car. It stops my FM/Sirius and my mp3/audio books and takes over. I've turned off the autoplay feature on both android and the iheart app and it still happens. Great app but this problem is making me want to remove it all together cuz its the only app that does it on both my samsung and my apple phones more -
Jul 27, 2022 By Sporty HDEnjoy the app. The three major things I dislike is one, the shuffle mode for my over 4000 song playlist would sometimes repeat the same songs that were previously played prior to the app restarting. Two, what did you do to Garth Brooks and the Beatles? And three, I've had intermittent connection issues while on my playlist and it cuts off. more -
A lot of Positive-A lot of negative
Dec 2, 2019 By GKDimplesCouldn’t be happier with content and stations. On the flip side, it will play the same ad over and over (consecutively) while there is a station break. Also, horrible experience with local employee. Two local stations, only, were not playing. I called in to local office and receptionist who you see to claim prizes answered and was horrific. Insisted it was not their office and problem was on my end and hung up. I called corporate who gave excellent customer service said the 2 stations I inquired about were in fact down. I called back the local station, to let her know what corporate said in case other people called in and she literally called me a liar. Hung up on me. I tried calling back numerous times and she literally would not say anything and would pick up phone and slam it down, during regular business hrs. Called corporate back in hopes my conversation with local was recorded. They were extremely friendly, and promised to address with mgmt but I never received a follow-up to their investigation, as requested. more -
I really do like this app but it could be better with minor fixes
Jul 11, 2020 By #1 Steve #1I listen to this app all the time and I love the concept but there are minor things that should be done to make it better. I love the podcasts but It does not seem to be fully compatible with I phone. The 11 pro is the first I phone I’ve ever had and I heart restarts or shuts off and won’t start replaying if I make or receive a call. I have to go into the app and start it back up. I’m disappointed with the selection of songs by some popular artists. Rammstein is very well known and played on I heart stations across the country. I am subscribed to the plus feature that you pay to be able to listen to full albums or save songs to play in your own playlist. They have 2 Rammstein albums neither of which include their popular songs. They have tons of crap bands and music no one listens to but lacking in music that is classic. There is no other way to make suggestions than write a review or I would’ve just contacted someone there with my feedback. more -
Preffered over Pandora
Dec 23, 2017 By Moe The MessengerI have used this app for about 3 years was pleased with the free version. I’ve seen it updated & pay for it to open up a few more features to find songs, some I can & some I can’t, but I pay the $5.99/month to repeat a single song once & some very limited song searching. I believed this app is good because I can mix genres of music & it’s intuitive enough to know when I need my gospel/Christian playlist vs. the other artists/songs that I’ve like in the past. It also offers suggestions & it doesn’t appear to be so commercialized, I repeat NOT a commercial distribution list of who you are forced to like. Some of my local/Independent artists have songs that I’m able to find. I’m thankful for that. I’m not an iTunes type of person. I hate I lost ALL of my music after switching from an iPhone 4 to iPhone 6s. It made my day to hear my own music that aren’t published on iTunes, so I’m glad to at least be able to search for the ones that I once had on here. more -
What happened?
Mar 9, 2020 By KrdurbI am split down the middle on my rating. I have been using iHeartRadio app for years and it has been one of my most used apps(Rovers Morning Glory brought me here) and I never rarely had issues before. In fact, I would have probably given it 5 stars before. My favorite thing about this app was that it would pause where I left off on a podcast and I could resume it as soon as I opened the app again. This was very convenient. But now, since I had deleted the app and reinstalled it recently, it doesn’t do that anymore. I guess I re-downloaded the updated version? If I have the podcast going, and, say I watch a video on Facebook real quick, when I return back to what I was listening to on the iHeartRadio app, it starts the show completely over, and I’m stuck fast forwarding back through a 3 hour podcast to try and find where I was. It is really annoying and getting to the point where I really don’t even want to bother with the app any longer. more -
Good but could be better
Nov 16, 2017 By RyanDredHonestly, this app is better than pandora. However, my main two issues with it are the dislike feature and the song selections when you choose a specific band or artist. 1. Dislike feature: The problem with it is that if you click the dislike button on a song, that same song will keep coming back later until you’ve disliked it 3-4 times. Then after about a month it’ll come back again 2. Band/artist song selection: My major issues with this feature is that when you choose a band you want to listen to, the app will play almost anything but that band/artist. For example, if you choose fallout boy the app will play a fallout boy song once in every ten songs or so. Therefore what is the point in being able to select an artist. Now I’m not saying I don’t want to hear things outside of the band/artist I have chosen, however, it would be nice to hear the chosen band/artist at least every other song or so. more

Was great on Windows Phone, new web app version six
Dec 10, 2017 By Nominally NormalLoved this app on my Windows Phone, installed it when I was forced to switch to iPhone (which has been an inferior user experience in almost every way - it can’t even do autocorrect as well as the WP, but I digress), and it was pretty similar throughout the fall of 2017... logged in today, December, to find everything changed. I can’t figure out how to get to my favorite artist-based station (can find artist in search, but there doesn’t seem to be a station option anymore?) can’t find the Recently Played Songs list once I’m playing a station. It’s fine to change things, but not in such an extreme way that it appears so nonsensical to even fairly on-top-of-things users that they can’t easily find the features that are important to them. I don’t know if it was a web app before, but it must be because I don’t recall downloading an update and everything is just a little off, not polished and smooth like a native app would be. I expected that sort of thing on a minority platform like WP, but it’s really disappointing to have a worse experience on a brand new iPhone. Anyway, this app is in need of some major organizing/UI changes before it can match the user experience of previous versions. If I have to put in hours curating my stations (which looks like the direction this is going), as opposed to having a variety of stations that are good, just need minor tweaks to be great, I’d might as well use Pandora! more -
Jun 28, 2022 By CJ GI love the app, I use it everyday for hours. BUT, it constantly skips if another app refreshes, then it plays Ushers "Yeah" almost every single time. There are maybe 3 songs that rotate everytime there's a skip on the app & it cuts into what I'm currently listening to until the song ends & then it'll bring me to the station I'm listening to. This is incredibly annoying & is the main reason for 2 stars. The app needs more stability & figure out a way to go right back to what I was listening to. more -
Worst app for podcasts
Oct 25, 2020 By thetashaleeLiterally the clunkiest app I’ve ever used. If you can listen to your favorite podcasts on another app, do it! Unfortunately the Elvis Duran Show is owned by iHeartRadio, so I have to use this app to listen to their replay shows and podcasts. It takes forever just to open the app and get to the show I want to listen to. I keep the app open if I have to pause for a bit, and usually I try to come back later and listen... only to find that the app has closed itself and I have to go and search for the podcast I was listening to. A lot of times it doesn’t save my place, so I have to fast forward to where I was. This app has TRICKED ME into accidentally signing up for their premium, paid version by randomly bringing up the thumbprint authorization even after I had closed out of the ad. I’ve also tried listening to some of my favorite shows “live” and it constantly cuts out. I’ve had this app for years and despite going through many updates, it still is just NOT great. I don’t know how anyone can give it more than 3 stars. Either make my favorite shows available on the Apple podcasts app, or make this stupid app BETTER. more -
Jun 23, 2022 By Zach HuddlestonI first subscribed to this app for the 4.99 package which was unlimited skips and being able to play the hits list and specific songs. Now its just skips and not worth it. The full 9.99 version has all of the features and tbh, not going to upgrade. I liked that there was a cheaper option that had the options I wanted and didnt have playlists or whole album play. Not that those are bad features, but I don't really need it. Don't buy the 4.99 package unless you really only want skips. more -
Super inconsistent
Jul 7, 2019 By DigitalDCHI use this app because it gives me access to older podcasts than apple’s podcast app does, but this app is absolutely infuriating! Sometimes the controls will be available from the home screen or the control center, but not always. Sometimes the controls have play/pause, skip forward 30s and skip backward 15s, but sometimes it’s play/pause, skip forward 30s and 3 bars that allow you to skip to the next/last podcast and maybe remove it from your list of favorites (can’t remember the last feature). The fact that the app isn’t always recognized as playing means that I can’t use my headphone shortcuts to play/pause like I normally do, and have to go in to open the app if I want to pause, which is super inconvenient when someone comes in to talk to you but you’re listening to a podcast and have to dig around to finally make the app pause and by that point you’ve either missed an indeterminate amount of podcast or you’ve missed half of what the person was saying to you. Overall this seems like something that an app developer whose primary focus is audio should be really on top of, and it is pretty poor development not to have this figured out in my opinion. more -
Jun 30, 2022 By Robert C.Not much to recommend here. Good sound quality and decent selection of podcasts. Constant pop up promotions make easy transitions impossible. Subjected to 6-7 minutes of online ads before one hears programming from live stations. Live station programming is what one expects from corporate radio, bland and unimaginative. Playlists are uninspired and predictable. I use it for the classic AT40 countdowns, but repetitive interview segments, esp. the Elton John segments, have made that tedious. more -
Aug 1, 2022 By ash rotmanHorrible at keeping track of where I am in my podcast. Every time I start the app I have to find the last podcast I was on and then scroll to find the podcast I was on. And it instead starts playing some radio station I have no interest in. Horrible UX, and has become my least favorite app for podcasts, do yourself a favor and use Google podcasts or Spotify. more -
Way too easy to accidentally subscribe
Oct 15, 2018 By brappleye3I haven't minded the iHeartRadio app and service and it generally works very well and it’s easy to use. However... I was listening to the radio while riding my bike recently, and pulled my phone out to change the station I was listening to, and somehow managed to accidentally subscribe to the “Plus” service while attempting to lock my phone after. Sorry, it shouldn’t be this easy to subscribe to your paid services, or if it is, it needs to be easier to reverse it immediately so I don’t have to live with a subscription/charges I don’t care to have. I didn’t bother to call Apple to have the charge removed since it seemed like a hassle hardly worth $6. I was able to discontinue the subscription in my Apple account so I won’t get recurring charges. It’s just frustrating that I managed to buy something I didn’t intend to. It should require a few steps to get to the purchase, especially for a recurring subscription! If it manages to happen again, you can bet I will stop using this app and find a different way to stream the stations I listen to. more -
The app slows everything down and even stops internet connection
Sep 18, 2018 By Jesuslovesme4everI wanted to like IHeart Radio but every time, I download the app (which I have downloaded and re downloaded multiple times), it significantly slows my internet connection or even stops it. It also takes forever to load one song on the app and much can't be done on the app when a song is buffering. I even tried closing apps and deleting one or two apps and the app still slows everything down- a lot or even stops apps and the internet all together. Every time, I download the app, the internet stops working and as soon as I delete the app, everything on my phone works normally and fast again. I like that there is a decent selection to choose from (although it seems like Apple Music and Google Play have more variety in music) and the radio station selection is awesome. This app would be great if only the app didn't slow things down. I really wish this app worked. If only it were fast and didn't halt internet connection. I've never had these problems with any other music streaming app. more -
No respect, app is OK
Dec 31, 2019 By jeremy1069App is great but they have no respect for their listeners as far as radio stations go. None. Stations change format in the middle of the night, when listeners ask “Why” on Facebook or Twitter they’re deleted instantly. That’s how much respect iHeartradio has for their listeners. Zero. The radio stations get more generic and boring every year. The amount of time they spend playing commercials promoting this app could be literally used for something else more useful (Like real commercials that make real money or maybe a weather forecast) Beyond the bad radio stations, the app is pretty decent. Been using it since it came out around 2008 or so. Some of the other stations on this app are OK. Music streaming is nothing special. It has grown into a pretty decent Podcast platform in the last couple of years. There’s plenty to listen to. I do not believe they are “#1 for Podcasts” as they say on the radio over and over but I do believe they have a lot of them, which for people who listen to Podcasts (I rarely do) is a good thing. more

Aug 4, 2022 By Mike GolisThe content on iHeart is the only reason I have it on my phone. App randomly decides to close itself, the new layout after the last update is terrible, it constantly disconnects from my blue tooth ear buds (I've tried 3 different kinds and never happens with other apps) and the only thing that fixes that is restarting my phone. If the shows I listen to were available anywhere else, I wouldn't touch this app. more -
Jul 30, 2022 By Justina RaeI used to listen to this app all the time, but now when I'm trying to listen to a morning show on 95.7 the Jet in Seattle, the app cuts it off and plays ads and music that isn't even playing on that station. It's very frustrating and wish I would go back! Radio stations play enough ads, don't add more on top of it! more -
Jul 29, 2022 By K to the LThis app worked perfectly till... They started to get stupid with the ads. At that point I'm no longer even able to connect to use it regardless... The music selection ain't that great anyway time to find some competition that does things right. I'm not sure how you undo a heart but you guys figured it out. more -
Jul 21, 2022 By MotohioWhen ad fails to load all sound just freezes or a song and an ad will play simultaneously. Both extremely inconvenient while driving and unable to trouble shoot. Also don't like how I can't choose between "edited" and "dirty" songs...get that edited crud out of my music, I want it the way the creator intended. Also when you listen to an artist station it's like e ery 10+ songs you get one from that artists ..really? If the ad glitches were fixed my ratings would be higher. more -
Jul 21, 2022 By Jorge NaranjoNew issues! 7/21/22 now app just stops and continues when it feels like it. Ver bad app!! Commercials run over and over and the live stream never comes back on. They run again and again nonstop. Seriuosly!!!! Also no real live stations!!!! Everything I listen too seems to be delayed by hours and then commercials start running over and over, the same ones. So tiring just plain trash, really!!! more -
Aug 9, 2022 By David SommerHorrible, lately. Worked great for years, but now? Frequently crashes. Restarting the app rarely helps, and rebooting the device doesn't help. So far today, I've had 5 minutes of correct function out of 3 HOURS of attempted use. Based on all the similar reviews going back quite awhile it appears that the developers are less concerned with user experience than with getting that ad revenue. Lmfao ! How do they expect incoming ad revenue, when users flee in droves because the app is broken. FIX IT! more -
It’s all about the money
Sep 15, 2019 By Chief ColoradoI really thought I’d struck gold when i-heart radio was commercial free without a fee. Then it happened, they now charge for commercial free and the free station is littered with commercials that are louder and obnoxious in between the music I love to listen to each day. It’s sad it’s about the money and nothing is sacred anymore without a profit motive. The commercials can’t be manually jumped over and they are louder than the volume of the music. They interfere with atmosphere of the songs being played. I manually reduced the volume so I don’t have to listen to the drivel of each commercial played. Then they put you through a torturous video commercial at startup before you get to listen to your favorite music. Honestly, I can’t even remember one of their commercial sponsors except for the monotone , “Cars for kids “ that I muted until it goes over. We are so mercifully pelted with commercials these days that I don’t honestly remember any commercial I hear. If I’m going to by something, I use a search engine to find what I’m in need of and not brainwashed into buying something from an obnoxious repetitive commercial. If anything, I’m repelled by the commercials and boycott their products. Thank you for the opportunity to vent my displeasure with today’s technology held hostage by advertising ad-nauseum. Yuck! more -
Jul 3, 2022 By Brandon beaverI was paying for ad free,unlimited skips and the a ility to pick any song and listen to it. I had this subscription for years. Now I just have ad free and unlimited skips. Was never told the subscription was changing, just went to play a song and it told me I need to upgrade. I checked the upgrade and it's $9.99! I just canceled my subscription. Bad decision. I will looking for another music app. You'd think that a company this big made enough money and wouldn't need to screw over loyal customer more -
WOW
Apr 27, 2019 By Darbie+dooI first got a iHeartRadio as a free app when I first got my mobile device. It was free it was fun and the music was good because I could listen to it anywhere. That was about three years ago, now so much of the free things have been replaced by paid services that if I want to change anything that I had set up three years ago I can’t do it unless I pay them their fees to change anything on my accounts. You really have to love progress. On top of that because my mobile device is constantly logged on it doesn’t recognize the passwords I set up before they changed their site so now when I go to login online to try and change things it doesn’t recognize me. It’s a blast trying to reset my passwords and prove I’m not a freaking robot, great job iHeartRadio. I think it’s pretty funny that I have to prove I’m not a robot to reset my password but they can send automated email responses to folks. I’ve had these kind of problems before and they’ll send a generated email that says hey look up these corresponding posts on the forums to see if they match your problems. It’s all fun and games until the autistic guy wants to talk to a person then everybody hides behind a computer screen, if you find this funny awesome, if you don’t, fix it. It’s just one guys opinion. more -
Jun 29, 2022 By SweetLadyBlue1I've had the iHeart app for years with very little issues. I listen daily to a Houston radio station & their talk shows. This past 6 months or so, it's HORRIBLE! It's constantly crashing. It stops or drops & i have to completely close it out & open again. Sometimes, even then the station won't play. I've uninstalled/reinstalled & no better. This has gotten very frustrating! Please FIX THIS! more
