Artist bios

The page shown may not be all that beautiful, but the artist bios available on iHeartRadio are still a nice touch.

Lyrics

Again, the screen shown isn't very attractive, but you have to admit, having lyrics available is hugely convenient.

With the Sleep Timer, you can set iHeartRadio to shut off after anywhere from 15 minutes to 3 hours of playback.
