BBC podcasts outside of the UK now have a new way to be heard via BBC.com and the BBC app as BBC Sounds becomes UK only.
The newly launched audio section of BBC.com and app makes the BBC’s vast portfolio of current and archived podcasts, plus BBC Radio 4 and World Service radio stations, easier to find.
As part of this launch, the BBC will also be making BBC Sounds available exclusively to UK audiences and ending access to the service for international users beginning Spring 2025.
UK users who go on holiday (outside the UK) for a short period of time will still be able to use the BBC Sounds app abroad.
This is the latest in a series of enhancements made to BBC.com and the BBC app, with more updates coming soon.
BBC Studios is responsible for the monetisation of digital news and factual products including BBC.com, the BBC app, BBC Select and BBC Podcast Premium, whose profits help continue to fund the BBC’s journalism and reporting.
