Android Apps - myPlayer - BBC iPlayer

Next up is the myPlayer App which is a free download and is very good. Its undergone a number of changes since I've had it installed. Included are screenshots of the most recent release. It doesn't give you access to everything available on the internet version of iPlayer however there's enough on there to stave off boredom on a long journey etc. It also offers access to live BBC Broadcasts as well as all their radio stations. Picture quality is a little grainy and pixelated however the sound quality is very good.

I've found that the tab in the top left hand corner just acts as one button rather than individual options. none of the symbols seem to correlate to any particular action, you just end up scrolling through the different options, i.e live radio, live tv, catch-up etc.

BBC's Football League show being played on catch up

a live broadcast on BBC1 - its some sort of bird...
