Download the iPlayer Radio mobile app
In addition, we have launched a BBC iPlayer Radio native app - available on iOS and Android.
The iPlayer Radio app enables you to wake up with the Breakfast Show and instantly have the breadth of BBC radio at your fingertips.
UK audiences can search the Apple store to download the BBC iPlayer Radio app for free.
Is the BBC iPlayer Radio app available outside the UK?
The BBC iPlayer Radio app will not be available outside to download the UK at launch. We are focused initially on optimising the app for UK Licence Fee payers.
If you download the app from the UK and go on holiday abroad, the app will work outside the UK. Please note that streaming radio is a data intensive service. Whilst the BBC does not charge for its mobile content, your operator's charges for using the internet over mobile networks may apply, and would be significantly increased whilst roaming outside of the UK. Connecting via Wi-Fi is recommended where possible.
When will mobile downloads be available in the iPlayer Radio app?
For now we do not offer the ability to download podcasts to mobile devices from our Android or iOS apps. However a huge amount of BBC radio programming is available via our podcast service. These are available via numerous podcasting services which can be transferred to Apple devices.
We hope to extend the number of BBC radio programmes available for download and are working through the relevant technical, rights and permissions issues. Visit BBC Podcasts Help for more information.
Downloading podcasts on mobiles.
Users of Android, Windows and Blackberry phones are able to download BBC podcasts through mobile iPlayer Radio sites. These are not available to download on iOS phones.
