The competition is heating up on season 23 of “American Idol.” Viewers will have less than two hours to vote for who makes the top 10 on April 28, 2025.
The contestants who made the top 12 during the April 27 Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame episode will now perform songs made famous by “Idol” alums and be mentored by Fantasia, who won season 3 in 2004. Here’s what to expect and detailed instructions on how to cast your votes.
3 Ways to Vote for ‘American Idol’ Top 10 During 2-Hour Live Show
The two-hour show on April 28 will air live from coast-to-coast, starting at 8 p.m. Eastern time. According to ABC, voting will open at the start of the show and be closed during the last commercial break, around 9:50 p.m. Eastern time.
Viewers have three ways to vote and can cast up to 10 votes for each of their favorite singers on each platform — up to 30 votes per contestant.
The first way to vote is through ABC’s website. The second way is via the “American Idol” app, either via Apple for iPhones or via Google for Androids. Both the site and app require signing in — you can create a free account that works for both or use an existing MyDisney account.
You do not have to wait until your favorites perform to vote for them, but if you change your mind as the show goes on, you can change your votes on the site or in the app, as long as you click “save” to your changes before the voting window closes.
