How My VibeOn works: where the stations come from

By Cristian · Nightwave Studio · Updated

My VibeOn is a free website and app to listen to radio from around the world. Here’s a transparent look at how it works, where the stations come from and how it’s funded.

Where the stations come from

The station list comes from Radio Browser, an open database run by a community of enthusiasts, with tens of thousands of stations from more than 200 countries. Anyone can submit a station, including you, with the  button next to the search. My VibeOn doesn’t host the audio: the sound comes straight from each station’s servers.

How the charts work

The Top 10 charts and “most played” lists are based on plays in the last 24 hours recorded by Radio Browser and update every day. The “Trending” tab shows the stations that are growing the fastest.

Favorites and account

You can save favorite stations with the heart ♡ without an account. If you sign in with Google, favorites and most played stations sync between the website and the app on all your devices. You can delete your account at any time.

Recording and sharing

From the player you can record a station (files up to 2 hours, then a new one starts) and share what you’re listening to with a graphic card on WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram and X. Stations without a logo can get one suggested by users, which is checked before it’s published.

The Android app

The free app adds background listening, Android Auto, DJ Mode with crossfader, Automix, a player for your own music, podcasts and a GPS workout tracker.

How it’s funded

My VibeOn is free and supported by advertising. It’s developed by Cristian (Nightwave Studio) in Carpi, near Modena, Italy. For reports or partnerships write to [email protected] or visit the About page.

Privacy in short

You don’t need to give any personal data to listen. If you sign in with Google we store only what’s needed to sync favorites and plays; ads and analytics use cookies only with your consent, which you can change anytime from the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of the page. All details are in the Privacy Policy.

Frequently asked questions

Does My VibeOn broadcast the stations? No: it’s an aggregator. It lists stations and plays them from the stations’ own servers.
