NPR: National & Local News
Podcasts. Live Radio. Music.
Free · Designed for iPad
Welcome to the public radio universe.
The NPR app is the best way to get the latest news of the day, deep-dives on important topics that broaden your world, and the quirky, fun stories you'll want to share with your friends – all in one place.
*Make it personal.*
Play NPR One on the Home screen to get a personalized, continuous stream of shows, news, headlines, and music from every corner of public radio. Listen to what you want to, skip what you don’t. Or add a story you find interesting to your playlist. Your mix will be personalized to deliver the NPR you want, while still serving you stories you didn’t know you’d love.
*Broaden your podcast palate.*
Head to the ‘Podcasts’ tab to listen to shows from across public radio, recommended for you by our team of expert editors. (Don't forget to enable notifications to stay on top of your new favorites.)
*Make us your music concierge.*
Watch Tiny Desk Concerts in full right on the app. Just tap the tab labeled ‘Music,’ and hit play to soak in live performances from music’s favorite office space. You can also stream music from around the country, browse the latest music headlines, dig into reviews, and more.
*Make everywhere more interesting.*
Connect NPR to your speakers wherever you are, via Chromecast, AirPlay, Apple CarPlay, or Bluetooth. Login or register for a free NPR account, then just say "Alexa, play the news from NPR," to have your app listening experience amplified.
*Support your listening, and NPR.*
The NPR app is free and will always be. If you want to get even more out of your listening experience while supporting public media, consider joining NPR+. You’ll get perks like sponsor-free podcast listening, bonus content, archive episodes, and early access to select shows. Learn more at plus.npr.org.
