Overview

A closer look at Global Player Radio & Podcasts.

Global Player brings several Global-owned radio brands into one listening app, including Heart, Capital, Classic FM, LBC, Smooth, and Radio X. The listing also includes podcasts, playlists, video, news, and catch-up episodes from the last seven days. Users can set favorite stations and continue listening from a personalized home screen.

For live radio, the app describes skip and rewind controls and options to like or dislike tracks. Recent shows and podcasts can be downloaded for offline listening. This offers a mix of broadcast radio and on-demand audio from Global's services, rather than a general library of every song or podcast.

The US App Store lists the app as free to download, and the description says its stations are available worldwide. Availability of individual broadcasts may still vary. We have not tested playback, downloads, or regional access; check the station's own availability before planning around a live program.
