My Instore Radio review
A business music service with dayparting, scheduled messages, and multi-site controls.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
My Instore Radio streams business-licensed background music through its Android and iOS app or a dedicated MIR Media Player. It is aimed at businesses that want to schedule music changes by time of day or week, add their own ads and announcements, or manage music across multiple venues. Pre-programmed channels and Genre Selector provide playlist customization, while Song Selector offers track-by-track choice as an additional service. Explicit-lyrics screening is also among its features.
Scheduling is a central strength: venues can plan music and custom audio messages around their operating day, rather than relying only on a fixed playlist. For multi-location operators, PRO+ adds centralized music management and designated permission levels. The service also supports playback through Sonos, Bluetooth, and Apple AirPlay, as well as a compatible mobile device connected by audio cable. AI-assisted scriptwriting and AI voice messaging are available as add-ons, so buyers should treat them as extras rather than standard plan inclusions.
The published plans distinguish the delivery and management options. LITE includes the MIR Streaming App, business-licensed music, scheduled ads and messages, and dayparting. PRO adds a dedicated MIR Media Player and free phone and email support while retaining those music and scheduling features. PRO+ lists centralized multi-location management, permission levels, and an optional Support Portal. The service is paid and has no free plan; Song Selector and AI messaging may add to the overall scope. Choose it if scheduled audio, announcements, or multi-site oversight matter. A venue seeking track-level selection as a standard inclusion or a free plan should compare alternatives.

- Where it doesn't
- Song-by-song playlist selection is an additional service.
