why dont you add FM radio in iphone

karthi.venkatachalam,

FM radio was one of the most unexpected, interesting and valuable features included in the iPod Nano 5G.

Good audio quality on many stations.

Earbud wires served as the aerial (to answer a question earlier in this thread).

Ease of operation with click wheel interface.

Attractive graphics.

Song title and artist displayed.

Buffering appears to allow real-time correction of poor audio or FM multi path interference.

You can skip songs if you choose.

I own no radio that matches its features and performance. A remarkably valuable Apple product.

You may find that you could purchase an iPhone Nano 5G for a low cost.

May I suggest an enhancement request to Apple Feedback?

I agree with you totally, but this community is for support in problems with their device. Many other competitors don't include this feature in phones they create. With Apple Music, instead of listening to a radio station where you can't decide what song you want to listen to, you can choose from millions of readily available songs to download or listen to Beats 1, which is a worldwide radio station located in Los Angeles and in New York. Apple Music also has curated playlists and their own radio stations that are themed just like FM radios. Hope this helps. Have a great day! :)

This is true. Offline radio wouldn't use data, but would restrict your listening to local stations. I believe Sony had a phone with a radio receiver included at some point. Apple never did.

What I do is sit in my car and listen to the local radio, or iTunes or internet radio via bluetooth.

We don't work for Apple, we are just a community of Apple Enthusiasts that know how to fix things. We don't design phones nor do they listen to us. We don't know why Apple hasn't included the FM Radio offline in its phone. As of now it isn't possible. I'm sorry for your inconvenience. Hope this helps clarify.

The iPod nano does support FM radio.

There are apps for that like Tunein radio, and iHeart radio, to mention a couple. You can listen to your choice of radio station, choice of music , or all news etc..

What would be used for the antenna?
