Perhaps the more suitable question is, what can't you do? The BetterTV mobile app has been refined consistently to cater to the needs of our customers, which makes it practical in more ways than one.

We recently updated our mobile app to have over 120 channels available for you to watch on-the-go.

Mobile App Functions

1. Register as many mobile devices as you like and pair them with your Better TV device.

*watching Freeview Live channels on your box will require an aerial.
