NextRadio Launches FM Streaming Capabilities in Mexico
RADIO ONLINE | Wednesday, May 23, 2018 |
NextRadio has announced the launch of FM radio streaming capabilities for all smartphones including an iOS version for iPhone mobile device users in Mexico. The TagStation-owned NextRadio app utilizes the enabled FM chip inside select Android devices to tune to every local FM radio station. If an Android device has the FM chip enabled, NextRadio saves data and battery life compared to streaming apps and works during emergencies when power is out and cell towers are down.
"We're thrilled that NextRadio is now available for use on both iOS and Android devices in Mexico," said TagStation President Paul Brenner. "We want to empower all users to enjoy local FM radio without having their content restricted by geographic location or choice of device."
NextRadio says it's still committed to unlocking the FM Chip in all phones but wanted to offer consumers the choice to listen to live local radio on any phone. NextRadio developed a streaming version until this goal becomes a reality.
