Next-Ru Radio

Next-Ru Radio is a web player for Malaysian radio stations. It hooks into the Media Session API, so play, pause and next/previous station can work from a phone’s lock screen, Bluetooth headphones or a car’s steering wheel controls.

Highlights

• Live streams from popular Malaysian radio stations
• No ads and no sign-up; starts playing instantly
• Autoplay and a large play button, designed for use behind the wheel
• Favourites and preferences, saved on device
• Lock screen, headphone and steering wheel controls via the Media Session API
• Sleep timer to stop playback after a set time
• Optional radio static while a station tunes in, an audible cue that the player is still loading rather than stopped; useful while driving
• Installable Progressive Web App (PWA)

Disclaimer: the driver-friendly features are there to cut down time spent on the phone, not to encourage using it on the road. Distracted driving is dangerous; playback is best set up before setting off, with the steering wheel controls used for anything after that.
