Live at CES 2026: iHeartMedia News Roundup

It’s officially 2026 and you know what that means – we’re kicking off another year of new iHeartRadio product integrations at CES, the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas! 

We can’t wait to bring you more innovation in 2026, but until then, get caught up on our new integrations announced at CES below and enjoy even more ways to connect to all your favorite music, live radio stations and podcasts!

Google Gemini: 

iHeart and Google are partnering on a new integration combining the power of Gemini, Google’s AI assistant, with iHeart’s industry-leading catalog. In early 2026, users of Gemini will be able to discover, play and enjoy music and podcasts from iHeartRadio with simple commands like, “Play Sabrina Carpenter on iHeart,” or, “Play ‘Las Culturistas’ podcast on iHeart.” The integration will be available on Android and iOS via the Gemini app, and on Gemini’s website.

iFIT: 

In an expanded collaboration with iFIT, a global leader in fitness technology, users will be able to access their favorite live radio stations, playlists and podcasts instantly as the iHeartRadio app will come preloaded with no download necessary on iFIT devices early this year including on NordicTrack bikes, treadmills and more fitness machines. To celebrate, iHeartRadio stations nationwide will be giving away NordicTrack equipment in January 2026. 

In addition to the seamless product integration, iHeart will serve as the official music sponsor of iFIT’s “Trainer Games,” an exciting new reality competition series where 10 elite athletes compete in intense physical and mental challenges to win a $250K iFIT contract and become an iFIT trainer. “Trainer Games” is hosted by fitness influencer and talk show host Amanda Kloots and premieres on Amazon Prime on January 9, 2026. iHeart listeners can now tune in to the show’s official playlist featuring tracks that fueled this season’s competitors: iFIT’s Trainer Games Season 1 Official Playlist.

TiVo OS:

In an exciting expansion of the existing content partnership, TiVo and iHeart announced the integration of iHeartRadio with TiVo OS – an operating system that powers smart TV manufacturers like Sharp, Panasonic and more. Users can access all of iHeartRadio’s features now on TiVo OS devices. CES attendees can experience the TiVo media platform in action on the showroom floor in the West Hall, Booth 4041 (Xperi booth).
