The iHeartRadio platform was developed by iHeartMedia, Inc., and launched in April 2008 as the website iHeartMusic.com. Today, iHeartRadio is available online, via mobile devices, and on select video-game systems and consoles.

In 2015, iHeartRadio served both as a music recommender system and as a network of audio stations that aggregated audio content from iHeartMedia’s over 800 local stations in the United States, as well as from hundreds of other stations and other sources.

In addition to the live broadcast on iHeartRadio, this year’s show will also be available across iHeartMedia’s radio stations and on the iHeartRadio app. There will be two new categories this year – the TikTok songwriter of the year and best comeback album.

In the latter category, nominees include Adele’s 30, Drake’s Certified Lover Boy, Foo Fighters’ Medicine at Midnight, Lorde’s Solar Power, Kacey Musgraves’ Star-Crossed, Bleachers’ Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night, and ABBA’s Voyage.

The fan community will vote on this year’s best fan army, best lyrics, best cover song, best music video, the social star award, favorite tour photographer, TikTok bop of the year and this year’s new categories, TikTok songwriter of the year and best comeback album.

Fans can vote on Twitter using the appropriate category and nominee hashtags or by visiting iHeartRadio.com/awards beginning Thursday (Jan. 27).

Voting closes on March 15 at 11:59 p.m.
