Stuttgart Germany – 21 December, 2022 – Radioline and P3 are providing the most comprehensive and innovative radio & podcasts experience into cars running Android Automotive OS in SPARQ OS. Radioline is the world’s most comprehensive station and podcast database, with advanced services distributed to all screens, by a wide range of partners since 2006. Built on a highly scalable platform, the apps provide access to local/regional catalogs, enriched with EPGs and metadata.
Radio still has the lead for in-car media consumption, but innovation is essential to maintain its pre-eminence in the new connected cars. This is why Radioline is building apps with an intuitive UX, personalisation, seamless cross-devices experience and advanced features. The SPARQ integration incorporates all the features and benefits of Radioline, in a safe and user-friendly Android Automotive OS HMI.
Key benefits:
- Export to playlist: add a live radio track to the driver’s playlist (Spotify/Deezer) with one touch. This creates the first bridge between radio and music streaming platforms, reinforcing the music prescription role of radio.
- Cross-device account system: Radioline accompanies the user throughout the day with a seamless listening continuity between devices.
- Hundreds of hand-curated catalogs worldwide: by theme (music, sport, news…) and by geography (national, regional, local) to always offer drivers the content that matches their tastes and location (161 countries).
- Hybrid radio option: for a full radio in-car experience, SPARQ and Radioline provide an integrated hybrid radio option to OEMs. To keep the listening pleasure smooth and uninterrupted, the app automatically switches between FM, DAB and IP sources depending on the car’s reception quality.
With its extensive radio and podcasts aggregation and its advanced features, Radioline is the hassle-free solution for worldwide fleets running Android Automotive. With the freedom offered by SPARQ OS, the UI and UX can be tailored to any OEM needs.
Great partnership with P3 which extends our in-vehicle footprint in a flexible & nice environment which allows us to improve our UX.
