iHeartRadio Deep Links for Creators
Turn any iHeart link into a smart link that launches the iHeartRadio app on your live station, podcast, episode, or artist page, reaching the listeners who tune in to live radio and on-demand shows in one place, one tap from Follow.
iHeartRadio is where live radio meets on-demand audio, thousands of broadcast stations streaming live alongside one of the largest podcast networks in the US, all in a single app. The friction for creators: a normal iHeart link tapped off-platform often opens a logged-out web preview where a listener can’t follow your station, can’t subscribe to your show, and drops off before pressing play.
An iHeartRadio deep link removes that friction. Instead of sharing a raw iHeart URL, you share a short LinkTwin link. When a listener taps it on their phone, LinkTwin detects the iHeartRadio app and opens it directly on the exact live station, podcast, episode, or artist page, where they’re signed in and a tap away from Follow, Subscribe, and adding your show to their library.
When the iHeartRadio app isn’t installed, the same link opens the iHeartRadio web player instead, so one link reaches live-radio fans, podcast subscribers, and desktop listeners alike. Use it in your bio, show notes, an on-air promo graphic, or a QR on a flyer, and every tap is tracked before the app opens, giving you channel-level numbers iHeart’s dashboards don’t separate out.
Your audience splits between live tune-ins and podcast subscribers. A deep link drops both straight into the app on your station or show, ready to follow.
No web-preview detour. Listeners land in the iHeartRadio app on your station or show, where Follow is a single tap.
The same link routes fans to a live station or an on-demand podcast episode, whichever you’re promoting.
Use the same smart link in every bio, show note, and on-air promo, it adapts to each listener’s device.
See which platform, promo, or episode actually sent listeners with built-in click analytics.
From an iHeart URL to an app-opening, trackable link in under a minute, no developer, no setup.
Grab the URL to your live station, podcast, episode, or artist page from the Share menu in iHeartRadio or the web address bar.
Drop the URL into the generator above. LinkTwin recognises the iHeartRadio link and prepares the iOS and Android app handoff.
Use the short link as-is, or add a custom alias like /listen-live or your own domain for a clean, on-air-friendly URL.
Add it to your bio, show notes, on-air graphics, and ads. Every tap opens iHeartRadio when possible, and every tap is counted.
However you promote your station or show, a deep link gets listeners there faster.
Share one link on air and on socials; mobile fans tap once and your live station is playing in the app.
Send listeners straight to a new episode in-app, ready to subscribe and binge the back catalogue.
Route Instagram, TikTok and YouTube audiences into iHeartRadio from one smart link in every bio.
Run promos across channels and measure which one actually drove the most taps to your station or show.
iHeart’s dashboards show listens, not which promo drove them. Every iHeartRadio deep link is a fully tracked link that fills that gap.
Watch total and unique clicks update live across every station and show link.
See which regions and devices your listeners tap from to plan promos, ads and scheduling.
Use separate links or UTM tags per channel to learn whether your bio, on-air promo, or socials send the most listeners.
Add Meta, Google, TikTok or X pixels so you can retarget everyone who clicked toward your station or show.

Paste your iHeart URL into LinkTwin and share the short link it gives you. On a phone with iHeartRadio installed, the link opens the app directly on your live station, podcast, episode or artist page. Without the app, it opens the iHeartRadio web player, so one link works for every listener.
