iHeartRadio Family Gets a Redesign

iHeartRadio Family just got an upgrade. The long-running radio app from iHeartMedia now includes new features, content, parental control settings, and more. The family-friendly extension of iHeartRadio’s free streaming service also added Live Radio, Playlist Radio, and Podcasts to the app. More than 80 pieces of family-friendly content are now included, and the redesigned navigation is geared toward more intuitive browsing.

With the latest update, parents now have more control over the app experience with “Hide this Station” and “Hide this Story” features. iHeartRadio Family is available first on Amazon Fire Tablet, with iOS and Android devices coming soon.
