Guide for Streaming Live TV on ITVX: Accessible on Mobile Devices, PCs, PlayStation 4, Xbox, Smart TVs, and More Devices
Watching live TV on ITVX is now easier than ever, with the streaming service accessible on a variety of devices, including smartphones, computers, tablets, smart TVs, and gaming consoles. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started.
Smartphones (iOS & Android)
- Download the ITVX app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store respectively.
- Sign in or create an account, then access live TV streams within the app.
Computers (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Access ITVX via supported web browsers by registering on the ITV website and logging in. Live TV streams are available online without a dedicated app.
Smart TVs
- Download the ITVX app directly via your smart TV’s app store (supported on popular models such as Sony Bravia, Samsung from 2016+, LG webOS).
- If unsupported, use screen mirroring (Chromecast for Android, AirPlay for iOS) to cast ITVX live streams.
Amazon Fire TV Stick
Install the ITVX app from the Amazon Appstore on the Fire TV Stick. Then stream live TV through the app after login.
Gaming Consoles
ITVX apps are available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Download from each console’s app store, sign in, and watch live broadcasts and on-demand content.
It's important to note that ITVX requires a free account registration with email and some personal info to access live TV streams on all platforms. The service is officially accessible only within the UK due to regional restrictions. To watch live TV abroad, a VPN connected to a UK server is required to bypass geoblocks.
If your smart TV does not have an ITVX app, external devices such as Roku, Amazon Fire TV Stick, or Chromecast can be used to access ITVX. Screen mirroring from a mobile device to a smart TV is a reliable workaround for unsupported TVs, using Chromecast for Android or AirPlay for Apple TV to cast ITVX live streams.
Lastly, it's worth mentioning that the ITV Prime Video channel, which offers parts of the ITVX streaming catalog including live TV, requires an additional payment of £3.99 per month after a 7-day free trial.
With this guide, you're now equipped to enjoy live TV on ITVX across a wide range of devices and gaming consoles. For the best experience, use the official ITVX app where available and ensure your device is connected to the internet within the UK or via a UK VPN if outside the country.
