TUTORIAL: How to add your favorite radio stations that are not available on mobile apps?

Some of radio stations does not feature mobile app listening, instead only radio frequencies and website.



How to add your favorite radio stations to mobile apps?

Use PC to do it:

1. Go to tunein.com
2. Create your tunein account
3. Right top and select "PROFILE"
4. Create a new folder
5. Add the radio streaming ip address and the station name by clicking "Custom URL". Example: http://202.129.49.10:8050/
6. Click accept.
7. Your favorite radio is added into your tunein account.

Apps listening

1. Download tunein apps from Google Play Store (for Android devices) or App Store
2. Log in your tunein account.
3. Go to "favorites"
4. Your favorite radio stations that you added on custom URL (streaming address)
5. Then select your favorite radio and enjoy listening.

You can detect the ip address of a radio streaming online by clicking right and choose properties. The IP address will be appeared.

I have added several Radio Thailand radio stations on my tunein apps. Again, the radio stations that you added on your tunein account with their IP address are not opened to public because the radio stations are not on tunein, instead you customize their streaming address. If you want to listen to your favorite radio station on tunein, you have to log in your account unless your favorite radio station launches on tunein platform officially. Or you may help to add radio station as public broadcasting to tunein by clicking "broadcasters".
