There is a newer iPlayer app on the play store, when you try and use this it will then point you to the new media player app - after that it all worked ok - catchup tv also works if you register for that.


Still love my tablet S but it will probably be the last Sony Tech purchase. No ongoing support and dumping the product so quickly.......should have learnt my lesson with the Satio phone :angry:


Ignore the winge!


Hope the info helps.

Hi CSterry,


I don't really have a solution for you but can confirm that the BBC iPlayer app from Play Store does work on the Tablet S. Have a look at the following link to see whether there are any answers for you.

As CSterry’s profile states 'UK' as country of residence I assume that is not the problem :thinking:

at least you have a very fancy remote control!
