Australian radio guide

Which app should you use for Australian radio?

Use ABC listen for ABC programmes, podcasts and replays. Try RadioApp if you mainly want Australian stations across different networks. Choose English Radio if you want to switch between selected Australian stations and live radio from overseas, such as RNZ National or BBC World Service.

Which app fits what you want to hear?

ABC programmes and episodes · ABC listen
Use the broadcaster’s own app or website if you want the latest AM episode, an ABC podcast or the official programme schedule.
Australian stations across networks · RadioApp
Start with its station finder if you want to look up a particular Australian FM, AM or digital station.
Australian and overseas stations together · English Radio
Find an Australian station in the app, then switch to an overseas broadcaster when you want a different perspective or music format.

Which Australian stations are worth starting with?

Sydney news and conversation · ABC Radio Sydney
Look for this station if you want Sydney stories, interviews and local discussion.
National current affairs and ideas · ABC Radio National
In English Radio, search for ABC Radio National NSW. For one particular show or edition, follow the ABC programme page.
Classical music or jazz · ABC Classic NSW or ABC Jazz
Choose ABC Classic for classical repertoire and ABC Jazz for jazz. The live stream starts at whatever is on air.

How do I catch a programme from another state?

Check the station’s schedule against the time in your city. Sydney and Perth, for example, do not share the same local time, and daylight saving can change the difference. Look for the official replay if you miss the live slot. Live stream availability can vary by station and region.
