⏰ Sleep Timer & Alarm Clock
Fall asleep to your favorite radio station: The built-in sleep timer automatically turns off playback after a time of your choosing—perfect for relaxing evenings. Or let your favorite station wake you up in the morning: The radio alarm clock starts reliably at the set time, even if the app is running in the background. Multiple alarm times can be active at the same time.
🎙️ Stream recording
Never miss your favorite show again: With the built-in recording feature, you can record any radio stream directly as an audio file on your device—no microphone required, directly from the data stream. Recordings are saved in the station’s original format (e.g., MP3 or AAC) and can be listened to or managed in the app at any time. Up to 3 hours of recording time per session.
📺 Chromecast, Android TV, and Fire TV
Cast your radio audio to the big screen or to speakers throughout your home: With built-in Chromecast support (Premium), you can stream to compatible devices on your Wi-Fi network with the push of a button. SoundNode also runs as a full-featured app directly on Android TV, as well as on Fire TV and Fire tablets—with an interface optimized specifically for remote controls and D-pads. On Android TV, you can even act as a Cast receiver.
🎛️ Equalizer & Premium
With SoundNode Premium, you can get even more out of your sound: The built-in equalizer (5-band, Android) lets you adjust the bass, mids, and treble to suit your taste. Plus, you get no ads, Chromecast support, a home screen shortcut for your favorite station—and you’ll be directly supporting the app’s continued development. Buy it once, use it forever. No subscription.
The SoundNode Experience – for Android & iOS
We developed the SoundNode radio player to offer you the best possible listening experience—for free, with no compromises.
When we launched SoundNode in February 2026, our goal was clear: to create a platform that makes listening to the radio as easy and enjoyable as possible. With our app, we bring this vision right to your smartphone—for Android and iPhone—with a wealth of features you wouldn’t expect from a free radio app.
- Free & ad-supported: All core features—streaming, favorites, sleep timer, alarm clock, recording, and search—are permanently free. For an ad-free experience with an equalizer and Chromecast support, SoundNode Premium is available as a one-time purchase.
- Background playback: The app continues to run reliably in the background, even when the screen is locked. With the persistent media notification, you can conveniently control playback at any time from the status bar.
- Dark Mode & Modern Design: SoundNode automatically adapts to your device’s system theme—light or dark, always easy on the eyes. The clean, tile-based design makes discovering new stations a pleasure.
- Multilingual: The app is available entirely in German, English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese, and automatically adapts to your device’s system language.
- Fire TV & Fire Tablet: SoundNode is also available in the Amazon Appstore—it can be installed directly on Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Cube, and Fire tablets. No sideloading required.
- Privacy-friendly: We collect only the data that is truly necessary for operation. No hidden data collection, no user profiling. GDPR-compliant consent management is integrated directly into the app.
- Community-driven: Is your favorite station missing? We actively welcome station suggestions and are constantly expanding our database based on your feedback.
