How to install BBC iPlayer Radio APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download BBC iPlayer Radio APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.bbc.globaliplayerradio.international-v2.15.7.11054-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
5 ★Excellent app. You get content from all channels of BBC. Visually stunning app. Ironically there is no help or feedback session in the app. It would be nice if there is an option for users to provide feedback. For example, the app shows schedule. It would be nice if there is an option to put a reminder for favourite or desired program.
5 ★It's an excellent app. By using the app I can hear the all kinds of programmes of BBC Radio from anywhere of the world, infact I'm from Bangladesh. Thanks for creating the app & helping us to hear the BBC Radio all time....
1 ★I followed the instruction on Radio 4 to download the BBC Sounds app. That doesn't show up in the App Store. Is this it? Whoever is managing BBC online content needs to get their act together: no dates on episodes, predictive searching is not comprehensive (Brexitcast does not appear on a search list and, though it is billed as '5 Live' it doesn't appear on the schedule) and general confusion about naming and different ways to listen and download. Bit of a shambles
1 ★Says it allows downloads, but not clear from app how. Downloaded from webpage but still not playing. No use to me only listening on a wifi network. Bbc still has brilliant content though.
1 ★Whenever I connect my phone's bluetooth to my vehicle's system, this app automatically starts up whether I want it or not. Then I have to use the app manager to force stop the app. Extremely irritating . . . !!!
1 ★BBC iPlayer radio keeps stopping. I get this message repeatedly, app crashes more than ANY app ever. Android Turbo II. When it works, I do enjoy it although news every half hour is excessive. Once per hour is quite enough. I sent many many feedback messages, of no consequence. So, one star, til you all bloody fix it. Bollocks!
1 ★Such a shame this app no longer functions - the previous version was fantastic. Most content doesn't appear or load. Without a login/BBCid, everytime i want to hear something i have to search for it and hope the "please try again" message doesn't come up. etc. etc... I'm interested in finding out why this has happened - does anyone know why?
2 ★I love the app but it keeps on giving errors, like SORRY, CONTENT UNAVAILABLE but after hitting RETRY a few times, it plays fine. Will give 5* if fixed.
5 ★this platform works great on my phone and even better on my tablet. If you listen to or dwnld BBC programming this is the app to use , once you figure it out , and it very intuitive , it is easy to find any of the programmes in the wealth content the BBC has on offer. Even the daily programming such as Newshour is available to stream right after it has aired. One of the best software applications I have ever used.
4 ★I love the programs that are on the air, however the app is very shoddy. It almost never loads.
5 ★This app, or platform to be precise, is truly a gem. You can listen to anything from news to music for free. The archive of downloadable podcast is also huge. There are also podcast dated way back to year 2007. In short, BBC radio is simply a repository of information. Listening to the radio while working is really enjoyable.
5 ★The BBC iPlayer Radio app does an interesting job of displaying the range of BBC Radio stations that are offered on-air, as well as radio station programming schedules, BBC podcasts, and other related audio news program content in a manner that is likely geared toward encouraging app browsing/exploration, content discovery by users, and trying to avoid causing the app user to feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information that is available within the app and other related content out there.
