Nowadays, there are many free radio station services whether on the Internet, App Store or Google Play. However, since they are free, most of them have advertisements, which can be somewhat annoying to use. This article will recommend a free radio station tool “Audials Radio” that is not only completely ad-free but also provides a “recording” function. You can use it without registration.

Audials Radio supports many platforms. Here I take the iOS version as an example. After opening the app, the homepage will display recommended channels and channels you have added to favorites. The menu bar is at the bottom and includes Home, Radio, Podcasts and Music. The country classification can be found at the bottom of Radio, and Genres is the music type:
There are broadcast channels from almost all over the world, including Taiwan. The number of channels included in each country is marked on the right. For example, Taiwan currently has 44 channels, and Switzerland has a terrifying number of 856 channels:
After entering the country classification page, the popular radio stations and channels will be listed first, and there are also some categories below:
The Regions classification is quite special. For Taiwan, there are currently radio stations in Taichung City and Taoyuan City, but there should be more than these. This app may be developed abroad, so the classification in the Chinese market is not so complete and accurate. Countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom should be classified more accurately:
After you find the radio station you want to listen to, click it to start playing, and the playback toolbar will also be displayed below:
In the playback interface, there are some functions available at the bottom of the page:
Like the first one is added to my favorites:
The second is the recording function that many people like. It can record the current broadcast content. When there is a program that you want to listen to but cannot concentrate on listening, you can use this function to record it and play it back later when you have time. It’s a pity that this recording does not support scheduling function. It would be great if it had:
It even has an alarm clock function, which is really nice. Your favorite radio station wakes you up every morning. The volume can also be controlled. Remember to turn on the Alarm lock screen:
There is also a timer for automatically stopping playback, which means you can listen to it while sleeping, and it will automatically stop when the time is up. You don’t have to get up and turn it off manually:
The measured background playback is no problem, and the same is true for standby:
In addition to radio stations, it also provides a podcast function, and people in need can also use it to listen to podcasts:
The radio programs and music you recorded using the recording function can be found in Music. Recent recordings are:
However, compared to some free radio station apps in Taiwan, the number of channels collected by Audials Radio may not be that many. If you happen to like this one, it is highly recommended to try it. It is really good to use without ads, and it can also record, which is very convenient.
