Yeah I don't think most phones have an FM antenna. All of the phones I've seen that expose FM radio end up using the headphones that are plugged in as the antenna. This means you have to use headphones, which is a bit of an annoyance when you want to stream music to a bluetooth speaker or even just use the phone's internal speaker.
- leejoramo 12y agoAs I expected. So Apple and other hardware makers are likely not wanting to ship a feature that will feel flawed to many people. I guess, they could have the FM app tell people that they need to plug in the correct type of headphone for this feature.
- ewzimm 12y agoYou only have to have headphones plugged in. At least the Windows Phone radio app has software switch for where you want the audio output to go. You can plug in headphones and play on the speaker. If other radio apps don't have this, it would be easy to add.
