While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

From an efficient and manageable app which remembered where we'd got to in a series and let us choose episodes from random series to an utter disgrace of an app with no 'continue watching' option... See more

I managed in the end to connect my tv to BBC I Player just by chance really as it refused to work for ages. I wanted to watch Tom Odell at Glastonbury due to the normal channels omitting him and it ga... See more

Absolutely pathetic and disrespectful to viewers. The Olympics Team Sprints were starting at 10:45am for women and 11:15am for men. Around 11:05am, the iPlayer coverage switched to women's final prete... See more

Don't go to the loo!

All I did was rewind something as misheard the dialogue. Started buffering. Went back to search tool and it couldn't find the programme (!) -error code. Now back to signing in page and just stuck. Can't leave or re- enter. Only had 5 minutes left of programme. Given up. Endless issues with iPlayer. Make sure if you're watching something you have the time to watch it all without a break. It seems pausing, rewinding etc causes it to go off and not come back on.

Not fit for purpose

Has been crashing continuously last few months. Why don't they fix this?????

If this was any other streaming service we'd get a refund for this quality if service.
