    @ChasCroker Hi Chas, Please go into the Settings of the Freeview App and select Background Refresh to be activated. If this does not resolve the issue you may have to uninstall the app and reinstall. If it is not the correct regional news for BBC please turn on location services.

    @DetroitBORG Last time I checked, there’s no way to watch live tv channels? Seems like a missed opportunity to get people using Apple TV. Every Freeview PVR box I’ve had has been crap, the Virgin / TiVo box was good - just too expensive.
