BBC iPlayer comes to the Apple TV

*

The new Apple TV has been available for a little over six weeks and there are more than 2,600 apps available. However, dedicated UK apps have been few and far between. Sky's Now TV is on the platform, but we've had to bide our time while the BBC readies its own app. Luckily, that wait is now over. Coming just ahead of the holidays, the new BBC iPlayer app lets you dig into the Beeb's on-demand content and favourite your must-see programmes, pick up on shows that you've started but not finished and watch back your purchases from the BBC Store.

Inside the app, programmes are listed by channel but also via genre. The BBC is making good use of colour too, as the Cbeebies section (pictured below) demonstrates. It'll also play a big part in helping take BBC Three online-only, as the Beeb prepares to sunset the TV channel in February next year.
