Listen to MPR on your iPhone and iPod Touch with the MPR Radio iPhone application. The Current, Classical MPR, MPR News, and Radio Heartland are all available to stream on your iPhone or iPod Touch when you install the free MPR Radio application from the iTunes App Store.

Where it works
The MPR Radio application works on all iPhones and iPod Touches. However, The Current, Classical, and Radio Heartland streams (128k) will perform best when using a wifi or 3G connection. The MPR News stream (64k) will perform using wifi, 3G, or the EDGE network.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you experience problems with the MPR Radio app after installing the version 1.1 update, try deleting the app from your iPhone and doing a new install of version 1.1. We're currently in the process of resolving a bug in the version 1.1 update pack.

Due to Apple's iPhone 2.2 software upgrade, the MPR Radio app may experience some issues with audio playback, or may stop playing when the iPhone is locked. We are working on a new version of application that will remedy these issues.

Thanks for your patience and interest in MPR Radio.
