Hey everyone I am looking for a radio app that can pickup local stations(not over the internet). Does anyone have any recommendations?

Most phones that have an FM Radio chip installed have a radio app pre-installed that works just fine. If you don't like that one you can try iHeart Radio.

If your phone doesn't have an FM Radio Chip, you won't be able to listen to radio without internet.

Fair enough. I was mistaken I thought it was something that all phones could do.

The radio app that came with your phone, perhaps?

My phone doesn't have a radio app, sadly :(

Those apps need to be system installed, so if your phone/ROM didn't come with one other user installed apps won't probably work.

Also cord headphones are used as antenna, if if your phone don't have a headphone jack there's no way to make it work
