About the Radio App

Frequency is a radio app UI design template built on an "Analog Broadcast Warmth" look: a warm charcoal base, aged cream display type, and a single burnt-orange accent saved for the live indicator and the tune action. Surfaces are flat tonal panels split by hairline amber rules instead of shadowed cards, station names sit in tracked-out condensed uppercase, and frequency numbers read large and monospaced like a physical dial.

The template ships six connected screens that form a full listening flow: a Live home that greets you by name with genre tuners and recently tuned stations, a Now Playing screen with a scrolling analog tuner strip and waveform scrubber, a Browse view grouped by region and genre, a Search screen with a dial-style frequency readout and trending broadcasts, a Schedule timeline with the on-air slot lit in amber, and a Library of saved stations and podcast replays. The signature tuner needle recurs as a thin progress indicator across the replay and player screens.

Use it in Sleek and make it your own: restyle the palette, edit any screen with AI by describing the change, and add the flows your station needs. Export it to code, copy it into Figma with no plugin, or hand a prompt to an AI agent to build it for real, a much faster start than a blank canvas.

Screens included

Live

A personalised home that greets the listener by name, with a featured On Air broadcast, a horizontal row of genre tuners (Jazz, Talk, Indie) showing frequencies, and a recently tuned list. The entry point into live listening.

Now Playing

A scrolling analog tuner strip pinned to 90.3 sits above grainy station artwork, the current track and host, and a waveform scrubber with a live time readout. The signature player that anchors the app's tuner-dial identity.

Browse

Global broadcasts grouped by region with photographic city tiles and by genre with icon blocks and frequency ranges. The discovery surface for finding new stations.

Search

A dial-style frequency input styled like a tuner readout with plus and minus controls, a list of recent stations, and a numbered trending list with active listener counts. Finds stations by frequency or popularity.

Schedule

A vertical timeline of today's shows for a followed station with airtimes and host portraits, the current slot highlighted in amber with an On Air Now badge and a progress bar. Keeps listeners on top of upcoming broadcasts.

Library

Tabbed saved stations, recordings, and history, with station tiles showing frequency and live status plus podcast replays listed with duration and date. The listener's personal collection.

Questions, answered. Everything to know before you start.

How do I build a radio app from this template?

Click "Use this template" to open it in Sleek as your own editable project, then shape it by describing the changes you want: restyle the palette, edit any screen, and add the flows your station needs. You start from six complete screens instead of a blank canvas, so you reach a working radio app UI design much faster.

What screens are included in this radio app UI design template?

Six connected screens: Live home, Now Playing, Browse, Search, Schedule, and Library. Together they cover the core radio flow, from discovering and tuning stations to live playback, schedules, and saved podcast replays.

Can I customize the radio app UI design?

Yes. Use the template in Sleek and edit any screen by chatting with the AI: restyle the warm charcoal-and-orange palette, change layouts, swap the tuner strip, and add or remove flows. There's no manual redraw; you describe the change and it's applied.

Is this template suitable for a podcast or live-streaming audio app?

Absolutely. The Now Playing player, Browse, Schedule, and Library screens map cleanly onto podcasts, live shows, or community radio. The needle progress motif already doubles as a replay indicator, so adjust the content to fit your niche.

Can I export the design to code or Figma?

Yes. Sleek exports your design as code, copies straight into Figma with no plugin, or hands you a ready-made prompt that an AI agent like Claude Code or Cursor can use to build it into a real, working app.

Is this radio app design template free to use?

You can open and explore the design for free, then use it in your own Sleek project to build on it. Editing and exporting follow Sleek's standard plans.
