The BBC will discontinue access to BBC Sounds for international listeners on July 21, 2025, restricting the app to UK-based audiences only, though travelers can still use it abroad. Overseas listeners will retain access to 1,000+ BBC podcasts, live BBC radio streams (including Radio 1, 2, 3, and World Service), and on-demand journalism via BBC.com and the BBC app. This shift consolidates global audio offerings while prioritizing UK residency for full BBC Sounds access.
