How to fix Broadcastify not working
Broadcastify is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach broadcastify.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Try another Broadcastify feed
Open a nearby county or category page on Broadcastify and play a different feed. If that one plays, the original feed is probably offline or silent, so there may be nothing to fix on your device.
Restart the Broadcastify player
Stop the stream, wait about 10 seconds, then press Play again. If the tab has been open for a while, refresh it with Ctrl+R on Windows or Command+R on Mac.
Allow sound for broadcastify.com
In Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy and security > Site settings > Sound. Choose Sites can play sound, and remove broadcastify.com if it appears under Not allowed to play sound.
Clear Broadcastify site data
In Chrome, open chrome://settings/siteData, search for broadcastify.com, and delete the saved site data. Close the tab, open Broadcastify again, sign in if asked, and try the feed once more.
While Broadcastify is down: what to use instead
- OpenMHz Use it if your local public safety system is listed there, since it carries live and recent radio traffic for some agencies.
- Scanner Radio Try it for police, fire, and EMS scanner feeds on iPhone or Android when you need a quick mobile option.
- RadioReference Check its frequency database if you have a scanner or SDR and want to tune local channels yourself.
- Local agency alerts Use your city, county, fire, or police alert channels for confirmed incident updates when live audio is not available.
What happens when Broadcastify goes down
Broadcastify is a live audio streaming site for public safety radio, aviation, rail, and marine feeds, with most listening tied to the United States. Scanner hobbyists, newsrooms, emergency watchers, and people following local incidents rely on it; an outage interrupts live feed playback and access to archived audio.
Live streams tend to show trouble first: the web player sits on loading, audio cuts out, the app fails to start a stream, or a feed page times out. State and county directories may still open while one local feed stays silent, since many streams come from separate volunteer feed providers. Because of that setup, problems are often partial or regional rather than a full Broadcastify failure. Audio archives can also load slowly or fail when playback pages are under strain.

Tip: Broadcastify doesn't list a public status page that we know of, so its help centre and the report chart on this page are the best places to check.
How we track Broadcastify
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Broadcastify, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Broadcastify, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Broadcastify doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
