To give you the best experience, the app tracks what you’ve watched and how long you’ve viewed programmes. You can turn this off by logging into your BBC account and disabling “Allow Personalisation”. The app also tracks when you add or remove items from My Programmes. Standard Android permissions and performance cookies are used to help improve the app; you can opt out anytime from Settings. For more information, see the BBC iPlayer Apps Privacy Notice and the BBC Privacy Policy.

You may opt out of our data processor’s tracking via the “Forget My Device” form. Installing this app means you accept the BBC Terms of Use. The app is developed by Media AT (BBC Media Applications Technologies Limited), a wholly owned subsidiary of the BBC.
