These are the official British content apps for iOS — BBC iPlayer, Channel 4, ITVX, Channel 5 and U: TV Player.
App availability follows your Apple ID Country/Region, not where you’re physically located. If your Apple ID is set to a non‑UK region, broadcaster apps (BBC iPlayer, Channel 4, ITVX, Channel 5, U: TV Player) may show as not available for download.
Requires an active UK address and a payment method compatible with the UK store.
You can still watch via your browser without installing each app.
UK broadcaster apps only work when your location appears to be in the United Kingdom. If you’re outside the UK, or your IP address resolves to a non‑UK location, you’ll see this message.
Connect to a UK location so the app recognises you as being in the UK.
