Please #help me listen to my fav radio on my #homepod !
Hi All,
I’m a quite new and delighted user of a HomePod. I listen often to a very large public radio in Belgium: « RTBF La Premiere », and wish to listen to it on the HomePod even if my iPhone is not around.
The radio, despite being well known, is not displayed in Apple Music (from my understanding because they are not on TuneIn, but I might be wrong). Some other stations from RTBF are there, but not this one, their « main » one.
They publish the URL of their web radio, I’ve tried to include it in an iOS shortcut, create a custom playlist containing that feed, … and never succeeded.
Would you be so kind to help me get my HomePod play that radio?
You’d have to play it on your phone then cast it to the HomePod if it’s not on any of the HomeKit supported streaming services. I think the next release will support more/all third party streaming apps.
Thank you for the input. I feared it but I’m happy to have a second opinion. I regret that we are dependent from « compatible services », and that Apple wouldn’t allow me to specify a URL and « import » it…
