About iHeartRadio Downloader

iHeartRadio hosts thousands of shows, but episodes can be pulled at any time—often with no notice. Once they're gone, they're gone unless you've saved them yourself. One click captures the full audio while you listen, so you never lose an important interview or favorite episode.

The downloader preserves original quality and tags every file with show name, episode title, and artist details. No re-encoding, no complicated settings. Your library stays perfectly organized without extra effort.

All processing happens locally on your machine. Nothing is uploaded to the cloud, and the extension doesn't store your credentials. It's private, fast, and works on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, and Opera across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Happy Users

Recent customer feedback

Short, practical feedback from people using iHeartRadio Downloader in real workflows.

Podcast archiving made reliable

I listen to a few niche iHeartRadio podcasts that have a habit of disappearing episodes. Now I download every new episode the day it drops. The auto-tagging makes organizing them trivial.

Fills the dead-zone gap cleanly

My morning commute goes through a dead zone with no signal for 20 minutes. I grab a few tracks and podcast segments the night before and I am covered. Simple and effective.

Lossless capture quality

The quality is as good as what I hear streaming live. No compression artifacts, no weird cutoffs. Files drop into my podcast app and play like they were usually there.
