LoovaCast Mobile
No app store. No downloads. Open your station on your phone, tap Add to Home Screen, and your listeners are tuned in — one tap, anywhere, anytime.
How It Works
Every LoovaCast station already has a mobile-installable player built in. No developer needed. No app store approval. Your listeners install it in seconds.
Share your station’s public listener URL. Listeners open it in Safari on iPhone — works on any iOS device running iOS 11.3+.
Must use Safari — Chrome won’t show the install prompt on iPhone
At the bottom of Safari, tap the Share button — the box with an arrow pointing up. This opens the iOS share sheet.
Scroll down and tap “Add to Home Screen.” Your station’s name and icon appear. Tap “Add” to confirm.
Your station is now on their home screen like a real app. Opens full screen, no browser bar, instant playback. Locked in every time they open their phone.
Open your station’s public page on your phone to see the experience your listeners get.

Android: Open in Chrome, tap the three-dot menu, select “Add to Home Screen.” Same result — one-tap listening from your home screen.
Mobile Experience
Every LoovaCast station delivers a full mobile listening experience right out of the box — no extra setup required on your end.
Your station lives on their phone like a real app. Custom icon, your station name, launches full screen with no browser bar.
One tap and the stream starts. No loading screens, no ads, no navigation. Just your station playing immediately.
Listeners see the current track, artist, and album art updated in real time. Looks and feels like a premium music app.
Listeners can request songs and submit voice dedications directly from the mobile player. Keeps them engaged and coming back.
The stream keeps playing when they switch apps or lock their phone. Cooking, driving, gym — your station goes everywhere with them.
No app store updates. No code to manage. When you update your station, the mobile experience updates automatically.
