Retro Pop Radio is available on Amazon Alexa. Simply activate it in your app and then launch the station by saying “Alexa, play Retro Pop Radio”

Open a second tab on your phone browser and play the station. You can then switch between browser tabs and other apps on your phone and the station will continue to play in the background.

This isn’t possible currently, the crazy costs make it impossible for a small radio station. However there are still options and no reason why you can’t listen whilst on the move. Here are a few in car solutions:

  • Bluetooth Connectivity – Phones with an active Bluetooth signal can be integrated with the car’s control and audio system if the car supports this wireless technology. Make sure the phone is pairing with other devices in the settings menu.
  • Audio Cables – Whether you have an Android or iOS device, you can play internet radio through a phone that is plugged into the vehicle directly. A USB lead or official Apple connector fits into adaptable ports within the dashboard, glove box or near the gearstick, wherever the right connection point is within your car.
  • Cassette Adapters – Older cars may not have any aux inputs. Radios designed solely for cassettes will require a special adapter in the shape of a tape. You can buy these in most accessory stores; they connect to a phone cable and transfer audio data through the tape heads.
  • Amazon AlexaIf you already own an Alexa, Amazon’s voice command software, the Echo Dot device is a great option for hands-free listening. The Echo Dot can be mounted to your dashboard and plays, pauses and adjusts the volume of your audio per your voice commands, and for your convenience, it pairs with your car’s Bluetooth for simple connectivity and listening.
  • Another option is the Android Auto app or Apple Car Play, which both mimic a phone’s user-interface by transferring it to your dashboard screen. Once your phone is connected, you may safely navigate the larger dashboard interface instead of struggling with your phone display while driving, enabling you to concentrate on the road while listening to your favourite audio.
