If this is the case, we just have to look for the application , which should be pre-installed on the smartphone , and put on some headphones to act as an antenna. At that point, we can literally use our phone like a transistor, tuning in to our favorite shows. But what do we do if we don't have an FM radio app ? Well, we must pull applications that will connect to the internet. This will increase the volume of downloaded data, so it is something that must be taken into account.
