Where to Listen

Hawaiʻi Public Radio’s two different programming streams 24/7, 365: 

Tune in the old fashioned way, or stream us via:

  • HPR's website - Click the play button in the red player module to listen live. On desktop, the red module is located at the top of every page of our website. On your mobile device, the red module appears at the bottom of your browser. To switch between HPR-1 and HPR-2, tap the icon to the right of the red module (the soundwave or audio wave icon) to toggle between stations.

    • Having issues with HPR streaming? Is your stream dropping out, refreshing, etc., causing interruptions in your streaming experience? Click on the streaming links below to access our programming streams with a lower 32 kbps bitrate, which may provide better non-interrupted streaming for listeners with weak mobile signals or data limitations on your mobile device.

      Listen to HPR-1 with our lower stream rate
      Listen to HPR-2 with our lower stream rate

  • HPR mobile app - Available on the App Store or Google Play. (See FAQs.)
  • NPR mobile app - Listen to shows from NPR, HPR and across public radio. Learn more at npr.org/app.

Smart speaker:

  • Alexa - for HPR-1, say "Play Hawaiʻi Public Radio" or "Play KHPR." For HPR-2, say "Play KIPO" or try "Play KIPO on TuneIn" or "Play KIPO in Honolulu." You can also enable our Alexa Skill.
  • Siri/Apple Home - for HPR-1, say "Play HPR" or "Play KHPR." For HPR-2, say "Play KIPO." 
  • Google Home - for HPR-1, say "Play KHPR" or "Play KHPR radio station." If the command does not work for HPR-1, please specify "radio" or "radio station" in your voice command. Another command you can try is "Play KHPR via TuneIn."
    **We have received reports that the command "Play Hawaiʻi Public Radio" will stream KAHU, which plays HPR-2.
    If you are experiencing an issue with commands for your smart speaker, please report it to mail@hawaiipublicradio.org.
