The latest update to TuneIn Radio<\/a> turns the radio streaming app into a full-fledged social network<\/a>. The app has been completely redesigned to help users explore new content.<\/p>\n

Each channel now acts like a user profile where people can listen to content and follow. Tapping on follow will add the channel to your feed so you get a timeline of the latest content from all the people and channels you follow.<\/p>\n

\"TuneIn<\/p>\n

You can follow your friends to see what they have been listening to. Your friends will get a feed of what you’ve been listening to, helping them find channels they may not have known about. Unfortunately there’s no chat feature in TuneIn.<\/p>\n

There’s also a new Explore section where you can browse for channels by types of content. There’s also a trending chart to see which channels are popular at the moment.<\/p>\n

\"TuneIn<\/p>\n

TuneIn is working to bring a “Follow on TuneIn” button to the web, much like the follow button for Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new TuneIn Radio app rolls out today for Android and iOS. The website<\/a> has been redesigned as well, letting you access all the new features on the web. Strangely, the paid TuneIn Radio Pro has not been updated.<\/p>\n
