Tuesday September 17, 2013 – iHeartRadio’s newly released App is off to a flying start. Within 48 hours of its release it has risen to take out the #1 top spot for free music apps in the Apple App Store.

And all users will be able to get ready for this weekend’s iHeartRadio music festival on all these devices,” says ARN’s National Digital Director Kate Beddoe. “Going to #1 is a great start for us, and with this success driven by the on-air and online advertising on ARN assets, iHeartRadio continues to be a great case study for the promotional power of radio”.
