Leave a Review NHK WORLD
Interesting content awful app
Really enjoy the content—especially the food stuff which is now impossible to find.
The app is confused and confusing, is getting deleted in favour of the website.BradHaynes
Layout
Wish the layout was a bit cleaner and there was a Japanese version as well.Adventure5
👍🏿
I really liked the diverse language u can choose, but idk why there’s no Japanese...
(b cuz I’m Japanese) And there’s not really a lot of news of japan compare to other app like yahoo news or asahi news, but I guess NHK only report big news?いまむらこき
I like it, but...
Overall I like it. A few things bug me, though. 1) I’d prefer fewer voiceovers and more subtitles. I’m trying to learn Japanese, and their limited number of English talent is, well, annoying and distracting. At least give an option to hear the original Japanese or dubbed. 2) They don’t seem to have enough bandwidth dedicated to the service. I don’t have problems streaming any services except NHK World. It’s not all the time, but it’s enough to be annoying. 3) Ditch the hourly news programs. I like the news programs, but they’re on far too frequently. 4) I’d like to see more programming that’s available on NHK in Japan. I get that this is free and in Japan you’re supposed to pay, but I’d like to see more programming that isn’t all about the tourism. Don’t get me wrong — as an outsider that’s also incredibly valuable. But would love to see more dramas that are being viewed in Japan.Show lessJp notes
Gets better and better
Good little app this to keep on top of things in Japan. Chromecast menu is nice but maybe a default option to allow the less mobile friendly person to tap it, select the tv, then play the live video automatically.Mд$k ™ Hench
Great contents
You have really good content, wish you can put the app in Samsung and Sony TV app store so people does not need to have a set top box to watch the programsroycheung1120
Casting App Unavailable
The app includes the cast to chrome cast feature but it doesn’t work. Please update this as it will make the experience so much better.
Quality programs available from NHK on demand and up to date news.pickingy
Apple TV app doesn’t work, no way to contact dev
The Apple TV app freezes the stream after a few minutes...my connection is 60 Mbps and all other apps work fine. There is no way to contact NHK’s developer about the app, the NHK site contact form is only for comments about programs. There is no way to specifically review an Apple TV app (the iOS apps work fine).Show lessrlr524
Unable to Chromecast in On Demand
It looks like the chromecast feature is no longer available in videos On Demand. What a shame otherwise this app would have been excellent.Vic@2020
New version doesn’t work with Chromecast
iPhone 7 and iPad can connect, but cannot cast.
This is a serious inconvenience for family viewing.
We enjoy several of the many shows, but cannot watch them together.TokyoMik
