BBC iPlayer Now Available on Google TV Streamer

Key Points:

  • Availability: The BBC iPlayer app is now officially available on the Google TV Streamer, approximately six months after its launch.
  • Features: UK license payers can watch localized content live, on-demand, or download for later viewing on supported devices.
  • Background: Despite being certified internally for the Google TV Streamer in November 2024, the app was initially missing from the device's Play Store. It has now started to appear on devices and can be downloaded directly via the Google Play Store or initiated from a mobile phone.
  • Channels Integration: The app is integrated into the 'Channels' section of the TV Streamer interface, allowing quick access to live streams from supported UK platforms like BBC One and BBC Two.
  • Significance: This addition makes all major terrestrial media platforms in the UK available on Google's only current streaming device, enhancing its appeal for UK users. With Chromecast no longer officially sold via the Google Store, this is a significant update for Google TV Streamer users.
