Google’s Android OS is one of the best and mostly used operating systems in the world. It not only provides an incredible range of capabilities and features, but is also a gold mine. It pretty much embodies the saying “there is an app for that,” as you will be hard pressed to not find an app for basically anything nowadays. No exception to this rule is free TV. Users can use their smartphone that runs on Android to watch TV without expecting to pay virtually anything, or subscribe to any service such as Netflix that streams to your device. So in order to get your free TV on, here is a look at some apps.
In the US here are free top TV apps:
• SPB TV
• Crackle
• Hulu
For the UK, Best Free TV Apps:
• 40D
• ITV Player
• iPlayer
• Demand 5
Hulu
The Android platform provides Hulu services, in which users are able to watch premium television shows without having to pay a dime. Hulu offers several categories to users which include, originals; kids; and movies. On Hulu, you can find something for the whole family, and greatly exploit their app for free. You can have the option of paying $8 a month for their premium offerings that provide way more content for TV shows and movies.
Crackle
Users in Canada and the U.S also can use Crackle, another free service in which are able to have your on movie and TV show collection, in which will receive updates monthly. Sony acquired Crackle, and provide a huge variety of content that is at your fingertips. All you have to do from time to time in return is bear the ads that will pop up. For many, however, it seems like a fair bargain.
SPB TV
SPB TV is another free service that is available to users around the world, and provides global content. So for those that are through with Hollywood movies, you are sure to find something new with this. For those that are looking premium channels or local content such as NBC or HBO, you will have to look elsewhere.
iPlayer
iPlayer provides users with 30 days of free access to their huge library of archived goodies. You will be able to catch up on your favorite BBC TV shows, and a few movies that will leave you entertained.
ITV Player
When initially released, the app, in lack of better words, sucked. However, since that time with a few updates has turned that around, and users will be able to stream ITV channels through their phones. For those tat looking for some TV program from last week that they might have missed, then you will be able to catch up on with this app.
40D
Similar to ITV, 40D provides users with some okay content. It is also available to Mac and Windows users, and can even be used on consoles. The app provides a great catalog of TV shows that on your console is great, but for their mobile edition, isn’t the best.
Demand 5
For users that want to catch up on their Channel Five’s services, then Demand 5 is the app for you. Available on the Android platform, you will able to look at shows on both your tablet and your smartphone, without any problems.
