TV Launcher - Live UK Channels app for iPhone and iPad

TV Launcher brings 140+ live UK & Ireland TV channels that you know and love into one convenient launcher across Apple platforms. As the perfect app for cord-cutters, it’s never been easier to start watching live channels.


* As featured on iMore & 9to5Mac *


Appleʼs TV app makes it easy to track programmes that have already been on but for the occasions where you want to watch live, it’s not so straightforward. You’ll have to open the app, find where the channels list is within the app, locate the channel you want to watch and the press play.

TV Launcher takes away that pain by combining live channels from across multiple streaming apps into one location. Selecting a channel will then take you directly to the channel in the app without jumping through any hoops!


TV Launcher contains these great features:
