I listen to online radio stations on my lap top and mobile. Is it possible to listen to these stations in my car via my mobile ?

I have looked at suggestions online but they pose more questions than they answer. A simple question, I hope.

Thanks in advance.

Need to know the car, most cars in the last few years will have android and apple mirroring. Or connect with a USB

My friend has an electric fiat 500 doesn’t even have a radio you stream from your phone.

Imagine this is how most cars will go!

Most new cars have Bluetooth nowadays don't they?

If you have an older car without Bluetooth/CarPlay, etc. you can buy a Bluetooth adapter which broadcasts to a FM frequency so you can listen to what’s on your phone.

Old version doesn't have android OS if I'm right. But it should have a USB port on the infotainment system. Try attach the phone directly and see if it recognises it.

Alternatively get one of the Wee Bluetooth speakers and sit it on dashboard 😉

I read the instruction manual that I thought I had lost !

Clicked on the Bluetooth logo and connected from there.
