MixRadio available for Android and iOS

The name of Nokia MixRadio or just MixRadio perhaps tell you something if you were users of Windows Phone at some point. Otherwise, MixRadio is a streaming music service originally developed by Nokia and later became part of Microsoft. At least till now, when MixRadio has been established as an independent company recently, having broken its ties with Microsoft and going to maintain a close relationship with Line. Explanations aside, the story in question that interests us is another.


Yesterday, several media related to the world of mobile technology as in the case of HD Blog Italia said MixRadio has confirmed that the appearance of the official app for Android and iOS were made. There is currently no definitive versions in either of these two mobile operating systems, but the app is in both cases in a beta phase limited to a handful of lucky access. If you want to be part of this beta, we recommend you to do it sooner than possible by following the instructions to sign up on the official website.


From what has been seen so far, the arrival of streaming music service to Android and iOS that binds to other classics like Spotify or alternatively Google Play Music, is at first glance an aesthetic improvement over the Windows Phone app. Functionally, it will maintain its proposal to be a service to learn from our musical tastes, allowing us to reproduce other playlists, creating our own, receive suggestions based on what we like or download music to listen offline later. Regarding the business model, it seems that there will remain free for normal user accounts and accounts with premium features associated with some monthly fee. To conclude we can say that despite the separation of Microsoft, it's planning to take this modernized version of the application to Windows Phone.
