IT'S FINALLY HERE...the "official" SHOUTcast Radio App for iPhone and iPod Touch is now available for FREE at the iTunes App Store.

With the SHOUTcast Radio App, you can:

1. Listen to over 25,000 SHOUTcast Radio stations

2. Save Your Favorites

3. "Shuffle Shake" - Feeling adventurous? Shake your iPhone and iPod Touch to get a random station. You never know what you might get!​

You can download the application HERE

NOTE: If you would like to play high quality station streams (ie. 128k MP3) on your iPhone or iPod Touch through the SHOUTcast Radio App, then you will need to enable high bandwidth streams by going into your Settings. You will only have to do this once.

To enable high quality streams on the SHOUTcast Radio App:

1. Install the SHOUTcast Radio app from the iTunes store

2. Tap on the "Settings" icon from your home screen

3. Flick down to the "SHOUTcast" settings. Tap on the "SHOUTcast" Menu

4. Tap the switch for "Allow hi-bit streams" to ON

5. Exit out of the Settings screen by tapping on your Home button and return to the SHOUTcast App

You should now be able to play high quality SHOUTcast Radio streams over 3G or WiFi.

Can you enter in your own custom URLs in the favorites, or does it have to be in the Shoutcast Directory?

No, there isn't a way to enter a URL into the program. It only has access to the shoutcast directory in order to play feeds.
