When I took the Rajdhani Express to Kozhikode last week, I discovered that my iPhone didn’t have a built-in FM radio. Despite my Apple Music subscription, I sometimes crave old Hindi songs on All India Radio (AIR). While looking for an app to track the real-time running status of a train, I stumbled across the Radio app for iOS. I don’t know radio apps, nor what they do, nor if they support local radio stations. I downloaded some radio apps on my iPhone and found them very useful, although they only work if you have a stable data connection or Wi-Fi. Still, radio apps are a great way to stay informed and entertained. I’ll tell you how to listen to FM radio on your iPhone and whether a radio app is right for you.
