Company mission
YouView's mission is to bring together online media and the traditional broadcast services into a single, easy to use product that makes connected television an everyday viewing experience.
Our take
YouView is a subscription-free TV service with over 70 live digital channels. It seamlessly combines seven-day catch-up on BBC iPlayer, ITV Player, 4oD and Demand 5 with a library of on-demand television programmes, films and radio. YouView is a joint venture between the major UK TV channels and broadband providers.
They host content from partners including Now TV powered by Sky, milkshake! and STV. YouView has record, pause, rewind TV functionality as well as a simple search feature.
YouView is offered as part of broadband bundles from TalkTalk and BT. It is also available to buy from all major retailers and many independent electrical stores including John Lewis, Currys Digital, Argos, Amazon, Richer Sounds and Euronics.
