BBC iPlayer for Android
The BBC have added download options to the Android version of the BBC iPlayer app. The iOS version has had the downloading options for the last year so it’s good to see the Android app catching up.

With the updated app you will be able to download TV shows via WiFi and then watch them off line for up 30 days. There are standard definition and HD versions of the shows to download. Currently it only works with Android 4.0 and up and in this release Android 4.3 support has been added.

You can find the iPlayer app in the Google Play Store.
