The info you provide when registering will be stored in your account, so you can see or change it whenever you like.

Why register for a ±«Óãtv account?

It helps you get the best out of the ±«Óãtv. Once you’re signed in to your account, you can…

  • Watch and listen to things on ±«Óãtv online, including ±«Óãtv iPlayer, ±«Óãtv Sounds and some live sport
  • Add programmes and content to enjoy at a later date
  • Get personalised recommendations
  • Get notifications about things that interest you
  • Comment on ±«Óãtv News stories
  • Vote online for shows like Strictly Come Dancing.

And that's not all...

When you’re signed in to your account, you’ll also get a more joined-up ±«Óãtv experience. For example, if you pause an iPlayer programme on your phone, you’ll be able to pick up where you left off on your laptop.
