World Radio plays 59,000 live radio stations from every country on earth — no account, nothing to install. Spin a globe or browse by country and genre, tap a station, and it's playing. Every stream is served over https, so it works in any browser. The lock-screen and car controls are built for driving: next and back keep working, there's no pause button to hit by accident, and the audio survives a call ending or a wifi-to-mobile handover.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built this because every radio app I tried wanted an account, nagged me to subscribe, then died the moment I locked my phone in the car.
World Radio is a static web app with no backend at all, playing 59,000 stations from the Radio-Browser catalogue. The parts I'm proudest of are the boring ones: keeping a live audio session alive on a locked phone, surviving a phone call ending, and switching from home wifi to mobile data without losing the lock-screen controls.
There's deliberately no pause button. Live radio has no paused state, and an accidental pause from a steering-wheel control is what kills the session.
Happy to answer anything, especially the iOS media session quirks.
