NOTE: We regret that, as of July 1, 2011, we are no longer able to actively support Pocket Tunes Radio. The product will remain for sale, and we will attempt to resolve any critical issues, but we will no longer be able to respond to every customer support request. We greatly appreciate your loyalty and support over the years and hope to be back again soon with exciting and innovative software!

NEW Full Support for iPad: Pocket Tunes Radio 5.5.3 is fully optimized for the iPad, giving you the easiest and most elegant way to listen to Internet Radio on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch. Pocket Tunes Radio works in all orientations on your iPad and makes great use of the larger screen to help you more quickly find and enjoy your favorite stations.

NEW Podcasts: Listen to more than 16,000 (and growing) podcasts in the catalog, including radio shows, music, audio books, and virtually any topic worth talking about! Pocket Tunes Radio automatically downloads your subscribed podcasts and makes it super simple to listen to the ones you want to hear. Many podcasts can also be played in the background while you use other apps.

Recording: Record your favorite stations to playback later. This is great for news shows that you want to listen to at a later time or when you want to listen to radio when you don't have an Internet connection, like on the plane or subway. While playing back, you scan skip forward and back to skip past songs and commercials you don't want to hear.

Skins: Change the look of Pocket Tunes by choosing one of our many free and inexpensive skins. See the screenshots below for examples of the skins available.

Stations Near You:  Pocket Tunes Radio now lets you search for stations based on your current location using the GPS technology in your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. No matter where you are, local stations can be easily and quickly found.

Selection (Now over 23,000 streams!):  The pre-populated station catalog can be browsed by genre and by country. You can select from over 23,000 streams (including popular stations like KCRW, Hot 97, BBC 1, etc., ...) or browse the web to add even more. Also included are hundreds of weather and police scanner stations. The catalog is continually updated and will automatically grow as new stations are added. For convenience, you can even hide groups of stations that aren't of interest to you, to make browsing even easier.

Background Playback:  Most MP3 and AAC+ stations (and most podcasts) can now be played in the background while you run other applications on your iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. (requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later)

Intelligence:  Pocket Tunes Radio remembers stations that you listen to so that you can easily find them again. To maximize playback quality, stream speed is automatically selected for you based on whether a wifi or Edge/3G network is being used. You can also override the automatically chosen speed by manually changing the station bitrate yourself.

Personalize:  Add stations to your Favorites for quick access the next time you listen.

Collect Songs:  Like the song playing on a station?  With the tap of a button, Pocket Tunes Radio will search for it in the iTunes Store so you can buy it or learn more.

Multi Task:  Want to listen to Internet radio but still check your e-mail or surf the web?  Easy, Pocket Tunes comes with a robust built in web browser so you can surf while Pocket Tunes Radio plays. You can even bookmark web pages to your Favorites.

Search:  Know the station you are looking for?  Enter a keyword on the search tab to search the entire catalog of stations, by city, state, call sign, or frequency. You can even search within a group of stations, and filter the results by station tags.
