Downloaded programmes are available for the same amount of time as they are on the ±«Óãtv iPlayer website or app. So if a programme is available for 30 days, you'll have until the end of that same 30-day period to watch the download.
When you search for a programme on the ±«Óãtv iPlayer mobile/tablet app, you can find the availability underneath the episode or programme.ÌýTo make sure you don't miss a download expiring, you can also switch on expiry notifications in the appÌýSettings (cog icon on the top right of the ±«Óãtv page).
At the end of the availability period, downloaded programmes will be deleted, so keep an eye on the expiry date of each programme you download to make sure you don't miss out! You can opt in to notifications on the mobile/tablet app to let you know when a download will soon expire. Just head to Settings and make sure the 'Expiring downloads' box is ticked.
Some programmes may be available for a shorter period, or won’t be available to download at all. This is because we have different rights agreements with different programme makers. Check the Why aren't all programmes available to download? page for more information.
